Thank you

Another twist on a pocket card. Not my original idea. I love how this turned out. You have plenty of room to write a personal thank you note and it's bundled so cute! :) More to come, I have a few ideas. After I took the photo, I did add an envelope liner which added just a little bit of something more.

Birthday Cards

These were a lot of fun. Looks like I over-exposed the photos a bit, but they are really cheery bright colors. I should've cut more decorative tags on the Cricut, but I've been busy this weekend and this was just a quick retreat to my scraproom. I'm so lovin' the new Stampin' Up Owl Punch. I got it from Barb/Snowmanlover... you can get yours here

And here's a photo of the tags .... the card doesn't open.

And another version... I actually made this one first

With Sympathy

A friend (my age), just lost her husband this past weekend to Colon Cancer. I made this for her.

You are my sunshine

Totally scraplifted the idea for this from Card magazine. They had the sentiment that said "SUN" or something like that... so I changed it to You are My Sunshine and used my punches

I actually paper scrapped....wow~

I haven't paper scrapped in ages. I made a layout of yesterday's activities taking Alex to college. I couldn't wait to try out the new craft room....love it! :)

Simply Amazing

Very plain....but

Day 239, 2010

Well here it is.... This is what I've been doing for the last two days.... Ashlea, Alex and I painted this room today.. (Ashlea's old room).... It's a bit brighter than I intended, but I like it.

5 Things I Love - J Sprague

Jessica Sprague has been working on updating some of her previous classes with the new versions of Photoshop. She offered a discount to anyone with the previous classes if they would like to get the new layouts/kits/lesson... of course I jumped... this is one of her class lessons. I love all the freebies she includes in her classes, the kits are always amazing and a little refresher never hurt anyone. The first time I took most of her classes I had Photoshop Elements, so it's kind of nice to go back and watch the CS5 versions and see what little tricks I'm missing.

Baby Shower Card

A friend of mine is expecting her first baby... how exciting!!! Her first at age 43!  So much fun.

This one was just me putzing around. The ribbon may be a bit too big for this card.

Simple "HI"

Made this one with one of my monthly kits from Taylored Expressions. Love this kit!

Happy Anniversary and Happiness Always

Made this card for a friend's upcoming 20th Anniversary... the photo doesn't show the colors very well (operator error :( ) but it's a fun combo of colors.

Below is another card I made with the scraps from the one above.
