What would we do without a greeting......card?

I just love to make my own greeting cards. There are endless possibilities. You can personalize them to fit the person or the occassion.

Challenge # 3 Toasted Marshmallow

Here is my entry for the third card challenge. The cute little snowman is having some toasted marshmallows. The image was a picture I saved from a calendar I had and just recycled the pictures and used them for some very cute little cards. The snowflake paper was from DCWV winter stack. I added some snowflake brads to finish off the card . I hope you like it. Until the next challenge - I will see you next time.

Celebrate the Harvest card challenge # 35



 
Here is my entry for the card challenge. I used a round scalloped card from Studio G as my base and the pattern mat was created with my Cricut Imagine Enjoy the Seasons cartridge. The little squirrel stamp is from Inkadinkado that I purchased at Joanne's. I used colored chalk to color the image. He is a cute little guy and made a fun little card. I hope you enjoy it. Until the next challenge enjoy the fall season.

GO-TO GALZ Challenge #2

Hi everyone,
Here we have my entry for the card #2 challenge. I made a cute little hamburger and popped him up on pop dots. Also on the card are stickers that look like packets of mustard and ketchup which are also popped up. The hamburger came from the Cricut Simply Charmed cartridge. The punch that I used as a border is a EK Success punch. The inside sentiment is "Hope you have a whopper of a birthday". Thought this card was very cute. and could be used for any age birthday. Hope you like it too. Until the next challenge - keep creating.

Seeing Red Card Challenge

Here is my entry for the Seeing Red Card Challenge. I used a Magnolia stamp and colored her with Copic markers. The border is made with a Martha Stewart punch. I stamped the image, and then scanned it into my computer where I could then re size it. I like the larger size stamped images as they are much easier for me to color and they then become the focal point of my card. The background paper is from a stack I got a long time ago, so I don't know what it is. The inside sentiment is "Hope you are having a cool day." Well I hope you are having a cool day too and that you like my card. Until the next challenge - bye for now.

SEW MUCH FUN card challenge

Here is my entry for the card challenge. This is a Tiddly Inks digital image that I colored with my copic markers. I sized the image to fit the card.  I used my white gel pen to make the faux stitching around the border. The inside sentiment says, "My best friend and I are hoping you are have a great day. I think this is such a cute image from TiddlyInks and I like how the card came out. I hope you like it too. Until next time - hope you are having a great day. My best to you.

Christmas in July Challenge

Here is my card for the Christmas in July Challenge. I used the Teddy Bear Parade cartridge. The sack of toys, the present, and the Santa tag all came from a package of Christmas embellishments. The paper was from a DCWV stack. I love how this little card turned out, however I don't think you can go wrong with any of the Teddy Bear Parade cut outs. They are all so very cute. I have enjoyed using them in other cards that I have made. I really enjoy making Christmas cards and have made a different card for each of my  recipients for the past two years. I am eager to get started on my cards for this year and this will get me started. I hope you like my Santa Teddy too.

Terrific Tuesday Challenge-Summer Time

Hi All,
Here is my entry for the Summer Time challenge. The little girl is a Magnolia stamp that I colored with copic markers. What I did was to stamp the image and then scan the image into my computer. I then re sized it larger and printed it out. I colored the larger stamped image which is a lot easier to do. I used a Martha Stewart flower punch for the bottom border. I popped the image up on pop dots. The inside sentiment is have a really cool summer. I hope you like this little entry as much as I liked making it. Until next time - have a great day.
