Whimsical Spring Birthday

Hi Everyone:

I have a pretty birthday card I made for a good friend of mine.

Here is the inside:


I stamped the bird on the branch then wanted to add more branches around it.  So I stamped with another branch at different angles so it appeared the bird was in a tree.  I couldn't find any background paper I like so I made my own with the same branch stamp.  I then layered it on some brown card stock and added an orange ribbon to pick up on the berries.  Inside I used the same branch stamp again around the greeting.

Supplies:
Stamp - GinaK designs - Whimsical Spring
Cardstock - GinaK designs Pure Luxury
Nestabilities
Ribbon

Youth Group Thank You Card

Hi everyone:

I found a picture of this card and realized that I never showed you.  For Easter this year, our youth group put on a very dramatic skit.  We wanted to give them a note to let them know we appreciated them serving during the service with the skit.

Here is their card:

This card was mostly done on the computer.  I knew I wanted to use Psalm 100 on the card.  I copies the words from Bible software, formated it, changed the font color, then I layered it over an image of a cross.  After I printed it out, I layered it on blue card stock, then on a white card base that I had embossed with zebra print.

Happy Birthday Jessica

Hi everyone -

Today is my daughters birthday - she is turning 15.  It's a big time in her life - almost done with her freshman year of high school and just got her drivers permit last week.

Every year for my girls birthdays I let them pick what shape they would like their cake - over the past few years I have made cell phones, jungles, dolls, etc....  the list goes on and on......

This year she has requested a music note for her cake, so being the crafty mother that I am, I coordinate her card with her cake.

Here is her card for this year:


I stamped the microphone image in pink, then cut out with my lacy ovals nestabilities, sponged it with some distressed inks, then layered on pattern paper and card stock.

Supplies:
Stamp - Unity Stmap Company - Singing Souls
Ink - Momento - Rose bud
      - Tim Holtz Distressed Ink - antique linen, victorian velvet
Pattern Paper - piece from my stash
Card Stock - Ginak Designs Pure Luxury - Brown
Nestabilities - lacy oval
