Hello everyone,
I wanted to show you another way to decorate this easel card. Be sure to watch my other video that has the Halloween theme. That video will show you how to make the base card. This style can house so many gifts such as a photo, CD, or even candy. Leave me a message and let me know what ideas you have used to add to your pocket on your card. Thanks for watching my videos, and for all of your support. Lorraine

Criss-Cross Easel Halloween Card




Hello everyone.  I am so excited to share this card with you.  I am going to add some Halloween candy to the pocket and send to a few of my friends.  My cousin is so into Halloween, so I'm sure he will love it.  He does however have to share the candy with his wife.  If you have any questions on how to assemble this card just send me a message.  I hope I made sense in the video on how to construct it.  It was pretty early this morning when I filmed it.  Thank you for stopping by today to visit me.  I so appreciate all of you.

Thanks,

Double Zig Zag Card


Hello everyone!  As I was on the hunt for a new card design, I stumbled upon a terrific blog with this beautiful card.  I will post the link for the instructions on how to make this card since it is not my idea or design.  I sure had lots of fun making it and hope that some of you will give it a try.  Enjoy the video and thanks for visiting me today.

Fall Card-Celebrate With Flourish


I'm not really ready for fall, but a summer card just didn't seem like the thing to make.  I don't have to many fall cartridges, and remembered the Celebrate With Flourish had an assortment of images to use throughout the year.  Thank you for visiting me today and enjoy the video.

I love the pincushion. The pins are very nice as well. But, I have to say that my DGD always ask to come to your site to wave at the cricket! That just makes my day.

Marbling technique With Acetate-VIDEO



Hello everyone,
Today I want to share a technique I used on this Anniversary card for a unique background.  When you watch the video, notice that behind the acetate on my card, I stamped an image on my background paper underneath the acetate.  You can stamp an image directly onto the acetate, but you would have to use a stazon ink.  If you stamp directly on to the card stock, you can use just about any type of ink pad with your stamps.  Always lay the acetate with the inked side down.  This way you have a very smooth top sheet.  The way I attatched the acetate pieces is with my ATG.  I was able to add the adhesive to areas that would be covered by another piece of card stock or embellishment. 
Thank you all sooooo much for visiting, and for taking the time to leave me comments, and your suggestions.

Spellbinder Dies

This card can be created by using spellbinder dies, but wait........I also have an alternative way to create a similar design using your cricut.  I hope this gives you additional ideals on how to substitute items that you already have, to create some of my other projects by using just a few small changes or substitutes.  Thank you for visiting me today.
