A fun Birthday Card

I purchased some dies from Papersmooches Stamps recently,
and I have to admit that I am in love...

Flirting Smiley

These dies are simply wonderful.
So today I created this cute card...
..well, at least I think so anyway...


I always like to add something special to my cards, to make
them stand out.  Thus, on this card I decided to use a flower...


The puppy "pops" out of the card by using 3D foam adhesive.

I hope you like it.

Have a wonderful, creative day!  Flower for You Smiley

Lillies

I love to create cards using simple floral images.
They always seem so elegant. 
Thus, I created this Anniversary card....


It is a simple image, that needed a bit of bling to make it special....
So I added some stickles and jewels to make it stand out.


Enjoy your day!

It is a new year.  
And my goal in this new year, is to make more birthday cards for friends and family.
So this is a card that I created today.
Dies, stamps, washi tape....
I mean, what could be simpler...
and more fun!




Have a great day...and don't forget to create something fun!

Christmas Thanks

Life really does go by quickly.
One minute I am posting something for my son's birthday, and the next minute the year is gone and I am creating thank you cards for the gifts we received over the holidays.  

Crazy I tell ya!

For Christmas I received some dies from Papersmooches.
So I had to use one to create my card.


With this card I thought it needed a bit of sparkle, so I added a bit on the scarf.



The die I used was the "thanks" die.  I thought it really made the card stand out.
In addition, I used flocking powder, to create "snow".....
It just makes the card a little bit more fun.


Hope you like it!
