Gift Thank You Cards

Saturday, March 31, 2012

Hello Everyone, I hope you had a wonderful week.  I had a very busy one.  My best friend's daughter's wedding shower is tomorrow and I have been busy making these thank you cards.  I made a box for these cards to go in, but there were too many cards to fit into the box.  I remembered I ordered these clear boxes that you can put cards in and walla, here they are.  I made 20 in all.  I used this old Stampin Up "Thank You" stamp.  I can't remember what set it came with, but I thought it was nice and fancy for a wedding gift.  Well, that's all for now.  Check back later for some more of my creations.  I have plenty to share with you, I just have to find some time to post them.


This is the clear box I put the 20 cards in.

Recipe:
Paper:  SU Wisteria Wonder, Concord Crush, 80 lb. White cardstock
Stamp:  SU Thank You (not sure what set it came from)
Ink:  SU Concord Crush
Accessories: SU ribbon, Spellbinders small and large square

Cheers

Happy Tuesday everyone, what happen to our nice warm weather?  Today was a very nice and sunny day, but it was cold.  I had to turn my fireplace on for a bit to warm up.  Let's see what tomorrow brings.  Today I have another birthday card I wanted to share with you.  I wanted to try something different so I made a tri-fold card.  The image is a digi-stamp by DigiStamp Boutique, a company from the United Kingdom.  They have wonderful clear and digi-stamps, check their website out if you have never seen their products.  Well that's all for today, check back again soon.  I have lots of cards to post.   



This is a tri-fold card.

Punch Art - Dog

Saturday, March 24, 2012

Happy Saturday Bloggers!  I hope your weekend has gotten off to a wonderful start.  I am trying to catch up on some of my projects this weekend.  This punch art card is for a punch art card swap that I decided to join.  I did a "Thank you" card swap and I was a little disappointed with the cards I received, so I hope this punch art swap is better.  I guess one doesn't know what they are getting into until you receive the final product.  I hope whoever get's my cute little dog will enjoy it.  Punch art is new to me, if you saw a couple of post before this one you saw my cute little cat.  Here is my card and have a wonderful weekend.

Mojo Monday 233 - Male Birthday Card

Friday, March 23, 2012

Happy Spring everyone!  I hope you have been enjoying the nice warm weather.  I have a friend that lives in Washington State and I saw a post from her on facebook they were having snow!!!!  I don't know what to say about that.  The weather forecast for me this weekend is rain, so I am hoping I can get some projects done.

Here is my card for the Mojo Monday 233.  I had a lot of fun making this card.  I needed a card for a male, and thought of this paper by Authentique.  There is a quote on the bottom of the paper that says "Loyalty in a boy's character inspires boundless hope."  This quote is by Robert Baden-Powell.  I think this quote really fits this paper. I'm not sure who Robert Baden-Powell, but  it is definitely for anything you want to make for a male. As always, thanks for stopping by, feel free to leave a comment.

Hello everyone, Happy National Craft Month.  I hope your weekend was an enjoyable one.  Here in our area we had very nice weather, but in other parts of the world was not so nice.  I'm praying for all the people where the tornados hit.  I spent most of the weekend with my grandbabies and my daughter.  I did make time to make a few cards that were in my favorites to CASE.  I hope I can find some time this week to post them for you to see.  So needless to say, I had a very busy weekend.  Whew, I am tired, after Atlanta Housewives go off, I am going to bed!

Here is one of the cards that was in my favorites.  I was inspired from Becca Feeken's card made with the same stamps.  I love anythng with fleur de lis on it.  You will be seeing this stamp set again.  They are from Justrite Stampers,  the top stamp set is Fleur de Lis Labels TwentyThe striped stamp is Musical Notes Labels Twenty.  These two stamp sets are very versitle.  As always thanks for looking and please come back!
