With Sympathy

Hello and welcome. I was in need of a sympathy card, so I looked on Pinterest for ideas. I found several using this Tim Holtz corner die and I really liked this layout. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program then I did the die cut. Butterfly die is Flourishing Elements by Gemini. I put double back adhesive on a piece of cardstock before cutting the butterfly.

Something Wicked

Hello and welcome. Can’t believe I’m posting twice in one day. For some reason I really wanted to make a Halloween card using this sentiment. Background paper is from Scrapbook.com, witch was cut on the Silhouette and is popped up with dimensionals. Card is 5 x 5. The hardest part for me was getting the printing placed right. I like the fact that in my Hallmark program I can make the font kind of wavy.

Always There For You

Hello and welcome. Oh yes, time again for DOS’s chuckle. Sentiment, “Sometimes you may feel like there’s no one there for you, but you know who’s always there for you? Laundry. Laundry will always be there for you.” was found online. For the image I Googled lonely old ladies clip art. To add a little interest, I scored all four edges. Very quick and simple. She loved it.

Fan Fold

Hello and welcome. After several videos and attempts I finally got a Fan Fold card done. I don’t know what my problem was, but I just couldn’t get the pieces cut right. PP was found online, die cut label is an Amazon purchase. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program, and I printed it out in navy blue. I’m actually pretty pleased with it.

Too Special

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for my niece. The sentiment “You are far too special for just a birthday card so… Please, do keep the envelope too.” is just a little bit snarky. EF used is Happy Birthday by Cuttlebug, stitched dies were bought on Amazon.

To Have and To Hold

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our granddaughter whose wedding will be Aug. 15. They chose an outside venue, so I went to the website and found a picture of the arch they will be at to use as a background. Die set is Hying Wedding Frame Dies found on Amazon. Below is a look at the inside. To get the heart shape I Googled wedding clip art. I pulled the heart into my Hallmark card program and added the sentiment.

Jingle Bells

Hello and welcome. Yay, another Christmas card done.

Background paper is from Echo Park, center jingle bells are from a computer coloring page colored with Copic’s. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program. Square die cuts are Stitched Squares by Die-namics. I thought it would add a little interest if the green die cut was cornered.

Christmas Greetings

Hello and welcome. Getting a little jump on my Christmas cards this year. Background paper was found online, center die cut is Stitched Squares by Die-namics. Center Christmas tree is computer clip art, sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program.
