Easter Blessings

 

This card not only opens as a card but also the "vase" also opens to reveal a message.

My Grandson"s 21

We are not a drinking family but I think everyone waits for their 21st birthday so they can legally order a drink.  We took him and his significant other for his first and onlybeer of the night.  Here is the card I mad to celebrate him.

Valentine 2014

Valentine's 2014
I often make cards ahead of time.  I hope none of these are double posts but please excuse any that are.

This is the kewlest paper.  It has red vinyl accents on it.  I added the "candies" from cut outs I created on my Silhouette.  It may not look the prettiest but was fun to make.

It's a bit difficult to see the aqua glitter tree I added but playing reindeer stand out.  They were buttons I got from Walmart and cut the backs off.  I added rhinestones to the aqua tree but if you look close you'll see it.  I took the easy way out and added a green ribbon that says, "Happy Holidays".

This beautiful cardinal paper just cried out for the cardinal cut out.

My brother past away last month and this was the last Christmas Card I sent him.

 

Christmas 2013

Sorry I haven't posted in so long but I lost my photo card.  Looking through my files I seem to have found most of the cards I made for Christmas 2013 and so begins the posting.



It was a definite winter wonderland for those even south of the Mason-Dixon.

A Halloween Birthday

The Black Hat Society

 Notice the feathers on the hat?



This card has a story.  My sister's mother-in-law is a Red Hat Lady and talks about it all the time.  I figured my sister would love an invitation to the "Black Hat Society" for her birthday.  On the inside it states the "induction" will be held @ Posie Chapel.  This is a haunted church from our youngin days.  I'm sure she'll get a laugh.

Happy Birthday Sister/Friend

I Love You

 

 

Toxic Treats

 

 

If you can't tell this card is 3d with a transparent insert for the shop window.  The minute I saw this store front in the Silhouette store(shown in red) I knew what it was going to be.  I think it makes an awesome card and I hope you do too. 

 

Sorry about the blur on the inside but regardless of the # of pictures taken and the amount of work ion PsP this was the best I could get so I decided to add it to the site anyway.



 

Witches Dance

 

 

This was a fun card to make...I had so many things I wanted to put on the front so, expect to see this style again.



The Raven

 



I've been wanting to do a Poe card forever.  This was the year.  I hope you like it.  Please don't forget to leave me comments?  I'd love to know what you think of my cards so I know if I should keep posting or am just wasting time.  Thank you.

 

Trick or Treat

 

 

Who remembers this from back when?  I think my grandkids will get a laugh.  I have to mention the background paper I used for this card and the "Boo Crew" card.  It's called "Trick or Treat" by the Paper Studio.  It has some wonderful papers and I can't wait to use more of it next year.

 



 

No Invitation - No Entry

 

 

This was such fun card that came from my warped mind.  The doors have 3d panels and the "witches" were colored with copic markers.  The inside reads ..."Oopps, no RSVP no entry" .  See the "splat witch" wasn't invited to the Witches Ball so she got the door slammed in her face..LoL

 



The Boo Crew

 

 

 

This card was a little different for me and I learned a lot from it.  It is a silhouette cut but wasn't originally intended as a Halloween card.  I think it came out cute and I hope you do too.



Spooky Tree

 

If you look close you can see the 1/4 moon.

 

 



For My Daughter the Vampire Lover

 

If you can't read the little book it says, "Vampire Forensics'"

 

Card inspired by Silhouette

 



I Love the Wind

 C. Thomas

I love the wind
The way it's fingers lift my hair
The way it kisses and caresses my face
The way it takes away my worries and cares
The clouds move by on days that are fair
********************************************
It moves through the wild expanse
It lifts the feathers and floats the fowl
Sometimes I have to fight to keep my stance
It whips through the limbs as it shreks and howls
********************************************
The song it sings blowing through the trees
The way it blows and dances the leaves
It drives the rain hiding my tears
Moving softly and taking with it my fears.
********************************************
I love the wind
It sings a song and whispers my name
The world bends and moves changing things
So they're never going to be the same
Often you have to strain to hear it sing.
********************************************
It blows in great drifts
Some people think it's a wild foe
It drives the snow making it lift
It stings my nose and freezes toes.
********************************************
But I love the Wind
