Karen's Wedding Shower Card

this is a 5" square card made in cream pti paper.
the stamp is called "mother's dress" and is stamped in black on pti vellum. the next layer is my mind's eye, then black layer, then another my mind's eye paper.

i punched thru the front layers and tied the ribbon.

i think this is the prettiest card i have made. if i say so myself. i love the way it turned out.

Gift Tin

this is a hinged tin that kim carries at Serendipity. i modified nicole's idea from her gift tag set, and used the dividers. i put gift tags with tea cups in one side, added buttons and ribbon to the others.
i used glue dots to hold the ribbon on the lid and also to keep the name plate on the clear window.

Curved Peppermint

another card that we will be doing in my next class. this one uses the curved rectangle nestabilities, and the Bella Blvd paper: spring rain.

this is also the MFT Annie LaPoint: Peppermint stamp that i colored with the koh-i-noor pencils and blending stumps/medium.

Buttoned Lavender

i am loving my new MFT Herbal stamps, here is another called Lavender. the pink papers are Basic Grey: Bittersweet pack. this is for a sketch challenge at scs: MFTSC68.

Cracked Trees

these are the thank you's that i sent out for the help cleaning up our downed limbs from the ice storm.

i thought these were appropriate because i did the cracked glass technique on the Lovely as a Tree set from su. ;)

Aqua Misted Scented Geranium

ok, i decided to finally show a card that we will be making in my next class.

this is a new stamp from MFT called Scented Geranium. i used koh-i-noor pencils and blending stumps with a blending medium. the cardstock is aqua mist from papertrey inc, i also did a little paper piecing. you will see more of that paper on upcoming cards.

Cuttlebug Organizer

i have been trying to figure out what to do with my nestibilities, and embossing folders. esp when i teach classes, they have to be portable.

SOooo, i made my own magnetic book, and then used the bind-it-all to finish it off.
i bought some magnetic sheets at walmart.

i put pockets on the back side of half the pages to hold my embossing folders.

and i used some of my favorite paper by My Mind's Eye, the tres jolie line, for the front and back covers.

and then i used my fav nestibilities, the curved rectangles to do the name plate on the front. i also used my new alphabet stamp set from JustRite.

and now i can take it with me.
