Peace On Earth

Hello Hivers,

Here is the second card I designed for the seniors citizens to enjoy putting together.  I made this one very simple for those that may not be able to do too much.  I cut, punched, stamped and sponged everything...all they needed to do was put it together.

Grateful

Hello Hivers,

I designed this quick and easy card for a day of caring and sharing at one of the Senior Citizen facilities in my city.  A group of youths spend the day with the Seniors crafting, performing, and serving lunch.  A good time was had by all.
I will be sharing two other cards we made that day as well.  So stayed tuned and..

Framed Sympathy

Hello Hivers,

I don't like having to make cards for this type of occasion, but it needs to be done.  I made this for a co-worker of my husband.  I love the colors and the simplicity of the layout and design.

Merry Christmas

Hello Hivers,

This is a card design I made as a gift for my daughters teacher.  I made a set of 10 with envelopes to fit inside of the Magazine Holder.  I love making multiples of a design. This was fun.

I hope Santa was good to you.  Enjoy the rest of your Holiday Season.

 Remember to keep CHRIST in Christmas.

Wetlands Birthday

Hello Hivers,

I just love the Wetlands stamp set.  It is super versatile.  One of my most favorite techniques is sponging.  I think I did a pretty good job here.  This perforated gift card holder is another gem I found on Frenchie's blog.  Below is a view of the inside of the card before I sealed it up (hence the clips in the top photo).

Gift Card Holder

Hello Hivers,

 I made this colorful birthday card for my neighbor back in November.  The instructions for this Gift Card Holder can be found on France M's blog.  She does a wonderful job with her tutorial.

Thanks for buzzzing by the Hive.  Enjoy your day.

Ninja Turtle Birthday

Hello Hivers,

Here is a fun and cute card I made for a friends little boy.  He loves the Ninja Turtles so....I made him this card using a few punches.  I got the instructions from Bianca.  I think it turned out great.  Don't you?  The sentiment was created in a word document and printed on card stock.  I then punched it out and sponged the edges.

Project Holiday

Hello Hivers,

When I received my order from the New Holiday Catalog, I couldn't wait to play with my goodies.  I just made a simple tag to start.  I placed some of the All is Calm Designer Washi Tape onto some Very Vanilla card stock and punched it out using the Note Tag Punch.  I added a sentiment from the Project Life Holiday Cheer Photopolymer stamp set and a little Silver 1/8" ribbon to finish it off.

Lovely Romance

Hello Hivers,

I am not sure what I will be using this card for.  I just felt like stamping and this is what I ended up with.  I embossed an image from the Lovely Romance stamp set for the focal image.  I used my Aqua Painter to add some color.  I am loving all the bright colors on the DSP from the Sweet Taffy pack.

Another Hat and Box

Hello Hivers,

Here is another hat and box set that I made for a friend of the family.  I used Cherry Cobbler and Chocolate Chip card stock to create this beauty.  The DSP and Ribbon are retired, but they add so much to the project that I just had to use them.

Early Christmas

Hello Hivers,

This is the last of my Work of Art projects for now.   I have seen so many Christmas trees made with this set, I don't know who to credit for the idea.  The sentiment is from the Merry Everything stamp set in the new Holiday Catalog.  I added a little sparkle to the ornaments with the Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details.

Sail Away with Work of Art

Hello Hivers,

This card is CASE'd, however, I don't remember where I seen it.  I stamped the sail boat in two different shades of brown.  Cut it out and popped it up on dimensionals.  I think this would make a great birthday card for a little boy.  Maybe my nephew?

CASE'd Work of Art

Hello Hivers,

This card is an attempt to copy France Martin's note cards.  It is a "bowl of ice cream".  The sentiment is from the Hostess Only set called Hello There.

I have a few more Work of Art projects that I will share next week.  Enjoy your weekend.
