brother's b-day card

Here I am again, I'm getting pretty good at this, I think. It all depends on Zack I guess, today he's co-operationg with me and took his naps, I'm dead tired right now but I got to do this then I'll go to bed. Anyway I made this card for my brother in law Jared, His b-day was may 8th and the card was only a day late. I used the new paper on this one. It's kind of a simple card but I can't put too much on it cause it's supposed to be a guy's card. Anyway he liked it and I liked it too.. Come back and visit soon... TFL

More Mother's Day stuff

Ok, I better post this Mother's Day cards before the Mother's Day month is over. I don't know which one is going to be on top or bottom so here it goes. The MOM card I actually made this same card for my mother in law last year. I just switch the colors for some springy colors and I used a different background. it seems hard but it really isn't the only thing you have to cut is the big flower from looks like spring set the rest I just used the spring bouquet punch, this one was card #3 on my Mother Day workshop this month. The other card I though this card is so simple I'm going to make one for all my friends... Not so much fun when you have to color and cut about 35 of these. They all like it so it was ok at the end. This card was 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 for the regal rose piece 4x8 scored at 4" for the whisper white piece. I used the doodle this set, warm words for the sentiment and some pink ribbon for the front. Hope you guys like them.. TFL

Mother's day Theme workshop

Hello there Bloggers! Here's some more stuff for you to look at. We made these cards at my May's workshop, it was Mother's Day themed. For the one on bottom I used 4 background stamp print pattern and canvas for the bottom with sahara sand ink on sahara sand paper, floral on the pixie pink paper using pixie pink ink, and aida cloth for under the blossom piece also sahara sand. The other one is very simple rock and roll technique, here it is how is done. Ink up tour stamp using a light color in this case I used so saffron, then rock the stamp in a circular motion so that you only get ink on the edges of the stamp with a darker color, I used ruby red, then stamp, comes out perfect everytime, then you just stamp the inside of the rose with ruby red, I did the same with the tiny roses, I then used the mellow moss ink that I used for the leaves for the spotted background from itty bitty backgrounds and just stamped the sentiment in this case Happy Mother's Day, but I think this design work for any type of card, birthday, thanks, even sympathy. Well thanks for looking I got more pictures to upload.....
