Happy Days are Here

I made this card for the "Flutterby Wednesday" challenge.  I had fun making it simply because I love butterflies, angels and fairies.  Hope you all like it!

Spring

I made this card for "Cricut Cardz Challenge" the challenge is to use Pink, White and Green.  You could use any cart that you wanted. so I chose to use "April Showers"  I thought the cart was fitting for a Spring card.  Hope everyone likes it!  I used Diamond Stickles on the flowers and the butterflies to make things stand out more.  The saying on it of course is something I lived by as a teenager and I believe most teens live by today.  I used my new Martha Stewaart Fringe Scissors to make the "grass" I love these scissors!

Wishing you.......

Fairy and Butterflies

 I made this card especially for the Getting Cricky with K Andrews Simply Sunday Challenge: All A Flutter. I used a Fairy, Lady Bugs, and Butterflies for this card.  The Fairy and Butterflies have wings. 

Other Challenges I have entered this card in:

Creative Sisters Monday Challenge #3 - Think Spring

Butterflies and Bees ALL A FLUTTER with K Andrews

I made this card especially for the Getting Cricky with K Andrews Simply Sunday Challenge: All A Flutter.
I decided to use Bees and Butterflies. One because I collect Butterflies and two because Bees are winged, sting and both remind me of spring.  The two just seem to go together.  Hope you like my card!!

Fairies "Do Not Follow"

Could Not Resist these lovely chipboard Fairies when I seen them!!  Just knew they would be perfect on a Card with this saying!!  Hope you think so too!

Digital Images

I call this one simply "Butterfly"

This is the Outside of the "Turtle" Card

This is the inside of the "Turtle" card.

I call this one "Little Girl Digi Button" Card

Outside of  the "Digi Flower Basket" Card

Inside of the "Digi Flower Basket" card

Last bu not least is the "HedgeHog" card.

I hope everyone has enjoyed these cards as much as I enjoyed making them.  As always, comments and constructive critism is welcome!!  Enjoy whats left of your day!!

Square Petal Card

I made this Square Petal Card just because I wanted to try something new.

This is the outside of the card.

This is the inside of the card.

I thought that it turned out really cute being as it was my first time making this type of card!

Rebecca's HighSchool Scrapbook

My daughter rebecca is has been working on a scrapbook for highschool.  She asked me to do a page for her with her boyfriends drivers license. This is what we came up with.

Splish Splash I was.....

I just fell in love with this little bathroom scene from "A Childs Year"  and knew I had to make a card with it!  It so reminded me of the song "Splish Splash I was taking A bath a long about a Saturday Night" LOL I know a lot of you remember that song!!  So here's the card!!

Busy Weekend

Hi everyone!  I have sure had a busy weekend!  Both crafting and family wise.  My 17 year old daughter moved back in with us and I made 5 new cards.  I want to say first:  I did use some digital images on my cards so, having said that I forgot what sites I downloaded them from.  So if you see your image here PLEASE let me know that it's yours so that I can give credit where credit is due.  The images I used are my favorites and I really wish I had written the sites down.

Now on to the first card!!  This first card is an Easter Card.  I loved the Mama Duck with her Babies!  I thought it would make a wonderful card to send out to my cousin and his wife who now have twins!

This second card is for the Birthday Rockstar be it a Teenager or the Music Teacher at school.  Anybody can be a Rockstar!

This one is for your favorite SLUGGER!!  Would that be your Son, Daughter or Your HUSBAND?  Sometimes our Husbands just happen to be our "Little Slugger's" LOL So here's the card just for that Special Slugger in your life no matter their age!

I love this silhouette of a girls profile.  Kind of reminded me of Barbie.  Hope you guys like it as well.

Finally, I found this Digital image of two Owls.  They look like they are in LOVE so of course I just had to color them and make a card out of them.  I did them on the Black for effect.  I know the front is missing somethin.  I have posted this particular card for some Ideas on what all of you "MY CRAFTY" friends think may be missing from the front of this card.  Please leave a comment with what you think.  This card needs HELP really badly! lol

Mschiddy THANKS so much for your helpful ideas for the owl card!  Here's the updated card that I did. 

On this card I simply added a piece of lace with some pearls to the bottom of the card.

Sleepy Owl Card

I call this one the "Sleepy Owl Card" !  On the front of the card the poor Owl looks like he is about to fall aseelp.  On the inside the wise old owl's are tell the receiver to always "Deal with the faults of others as they would their own"  Sound advice if you ask me.

Gatefold Butterfly Card

I made this beautiful Butterfly using my Gypsy and the Gypsy Wandering that came with it. This is of course the outside of the card.  I used Stickles to outline the Butterfly.

This is the inside of the card.  I loved the saying and felt that it was just right for this particular card.  I used the Foil Butterflies in the corner to anchor it down.
