Cards for Sale!

Alright! I finally got my act together and I have 5 sets of cards ready to sell! All proceeds go to the Relay For Life team, Thundering Herd, and their fundraising efforts! These sets have 5 cards with envelopes and are $7 each. (If you live outside of the Omaha area, I will let you know how much shipping is and get you a total later.) Most are blank inside or have a coordinating piece of paper inside. The exception is the birthday cards, and I took a picture of one inside. If you see a style you like but want different colors, let me know! I will be making more of the birthday sets in the next few days, as well as getting some sets of "blank inside" cards done. Leave me a comment or send me an email if you'd like to purchase any of these sets or have special requests! Thank you for your support of the American Cancer Society!!

All done!

For the first time, I was able to do ALL of the challenges My Pink Stamper put up for National Scrapbook Day! Yay! It was a lot of fun and got me really excited about crafting again. Now if I can just get organized enough to get those blasted scrapbooks caught up! Wish me luck! :)

Hey Dad

This challenge was fun too. I love making cards with glitter, flowers, hearts and more. Not very manly, that's for sure!! This was out of my norm, but it works!! I'll have to make this an ongoing challenge!!


Love my Color

This one I put off til very last. I wasn't sure about it. Almost didn't do it. But I did and I LOVE IT!!! I picked the paper, embossed some of it and put it all together. Then I decided it needed some embellishment. I just happened to have these flowers that were the same color! They were in one of those random mixes of flowers, a package I hadn't even opened yet! Meant to be!! :)


Take Shape

I'm glad I was talking to my mom about this challenge. I never even thought to use my Gypsy to weld 2 shapes together to form a card! I was a little bit off, but I kind of like the slight blue border on the one side! I welded the 'It's A Girl" to the duck, so it was a cut out as one thing.



The stamp on the inside says "Yeah, baby!"

Critter-licious

I love this one! It was quick and easy, and it let me use another one of my new $1 stamp sets from Michael's! The outside says "See you later alligator..."



Inside says "After a while crocodile!"
