Ribbon Pocket Tag Card-VIDEO

The tag on this card can be used to add to a gift you are giving to someone special.  Your card can still look beautiful even without the tag.  I hope I have given you an idea that you can incorporate into your next card.  Thank you for watching and also for all of your wonderful comments.

Teddy Bear Parade Leprechaun

Today I was in the mood for a cute card, and since St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner, I decided to get my Teddy Bear Parade cartridge out and make this adorable leprechaun.  I cut the image at 6" and made it into a shape card. After adding his adorable costume, I added black stickles to his shoes, pot of gold, tie, and buckle.  He also got a real black button for his jacket.  I cut the shamrock that is on page 49 from the Give A Hoot cricut cartridge.  Thank you for stopping by to visit today.

Songbird Card

I love black and white together, so I wanted to design a nature themed card. I seem to have a lot of paper with birds on it. The bird image was perfect for the look I had envisioned. Enjoy the video and thank you so much for joining me today.

Birdcage Love Card-VIDEO

I think this is a vintage style card.  I am trying to make some different style cards, and I need your help on what to call this style.  I usually use pink,  green, lots of flowers, and bows on my regular cards.  Have a look back at some of my older card creations and you will see what I mean.  I have challenged myself to explore some of the more tattered look. and I am really liking it.  I hope you enjoy the video and thank you for all your comments and for taking the time to visit me.

Happy Birthday Card-Bird With Nest

I'm trying a new card size.  I am making a 5-1/2" square and also a 6"x 6".  I think I am really going to like this size and I will be able to use the smaller paper pads.  What started all of this, is the two paper pads I found for under $2 dollars at Joann's.  Thanks everyone for watching.

Grunge Happy Birthday Guy Card

Hello everyone!

I am trying something different.  I have made my first grunge card using the DCWV Tattered Time Paper Stack and a few "grunge paper elements alone with the clocks found at Michael's in the dollar bin.  The paper stack has two pages of tickets, and two pages of measuring tapes.  I used three different mats topped with the paper containing the gears.  I used a mini paper clip to hold my ticket and the Tim Holt chain, along with the corner thingies to add more interest since I'm not using any ribbon or flowers.  Try using Crystal Affects on any of your metal pieces.  It works great, and holds it all in place.  Thanks for visiting me today for a project that is really out of my comfort zone.
