The One in the Bluebonnets

And finally, a little bit of my blondie in the bluebonnets. Found a huge, thick patch near my mom's house, and she sat right in there like she belonged!!

The One on Palm Sunday

In honor on Palm Sunday, here are the small Easter cards I made for my peeps at the office. I have learned that having to do 20+ "somethings" for holidays takes a lot out of me, since I tend to design on the elaborate side. I did these small, so the embellishments would not take so much time. The eggs are only about 2.5x.3.5. Small enough that I could cut out 9 from a 12x12 sheet of paper. the ric rack was cut of a double sided sheet, so I could just flip one over to do the middle stripe. These are the only two I glittered, as it again took too much effort. The rest I just stickled here and there. The effect was just as cute...


The One in Heels...

So, it's been way too long since I have posted. Mostly because I have been lazy about taking pictures of my projects. Today I feel very accoplished, so I thought I would finally update this... I finished a couple of projects I was working on, two set of notcards for friends of my mother's and my Happy Spring cards. I forgot to make an extra Spring card, so that picture will have to wait until I can make another one. Here are some pictures of the shoe cards I made.

I used the shoe cut from the Wedding Cricut cartridge and welded it into a square cutout from a card. I ran the top layer cut of the shoe thru the stickermaker and covered some with glitter, some with flock, and some with these really cool micro marbles I found at Michaels. I think the black, red, and white colors turned out well.

I hope my mom's friend likes them! The other set was the cross cards that I posted some time ago. Finally finished those too!


The one on the left here is flocked, and the one on the right is glittered. For some reason I didn't get a picture of the marbled one. Its too bad, they really are cool looking!


Here is a Thank You card that I made using the Gerbera Daisy that the Paper, Scissors, Ink lady designed in Design Studio. It is a fabulous cut, but looks like a hell of a lot of work. Glad she had the time to do it, because I never would have had the patience to do all that work! I think it looks particularly good int his stardream paper and Bling! Pink and Chocolate are my favorites! Well... maybe pink and green...
