Shower Her wih Gifts

The Scrap Chicks got together and made this card for a babyshower. On this card we used Rainy Day Hanna... Thought it would be nice to feel like she was showered with presents, maybe next time it will come out better if I have smaller gifts surrounding her. We used DCVW cardstock and glitter pack from Joann's. For the pacifier I used Fiskar's punch and the little pink flower brads came from Target. The Sentiment Congratulations came from a stamp set that I purchased from JoAnn's. Pink and chocolate was perfect to use because it was prissy and soft in a conservative way...

Baby Shower Cards for Her

We made this card at our Scrap Til You Nap... We used Perfect Package Hanna with my Just for You Stamp from Joanns. This is my first time using the Perfect Package Hanna Stamp. I like how she looks like she could be wrapping the gift or unwrapping the gift. How fun!!! We wanted to jazz up her top so we used blue Sparkly glitter from Walmart. We wanted jaWe used card stock from DCVW spring glitter pack. I used the Marvy Uchida circle and scalloped punch to cut her out but then it cut the ribbon too, so i had to trim that off and glue it back. Loved it!!! I used the ticket punch for the "Just for You" sentiment that I purchased from JoANN's. We added a heart clip I got from Office Depot. This card was very nice, very easy, very quick.

I need it... Got to have it...

Here it is again, Hanna Stamps But I need it... This is my very first stamp I ordered from Hanna Stamps. It was my favorite stamp until she made another one and another one.. It is my favorite with long hair tho... I made this card for a co-worker who is always on the go and had to have surgery on her feet. She said that her favorite color was pink so I used pink Sparkly Glitter Glue that I purchased from Walmart. It was so easy to work with. All cardstock was from DCVW. I got the scallops frames from a lady that sold 25 of them in various colors on ebay!!!

This is Para!!!

Happy Birthday Para!!! I made this card for one of my team leaders at my job. When you call him, he answers the phone, "This is Para. (slowly in a deep voice) It is a Happy Belated Birthday card. This is my first card for a man. Ha, and it wasn't my hubby... He was a lil jealous but his day is coming... So I had to break out Mikey from Hanna Stamps and ink him up. I kept the card simple since it was for a man!!! No flowers and all that jazz... (believe me I was tempted!!!) He said he liked black and grey so there it goes... more info on supplies in a minute..

Take time to "Do you"

I just love this card. I made this card for my very bestfriend who is going through alot right now. I thought the idea of a bubble bath would help. In this day in age, most of us will hop in a shower quicker than taking the time to soak in a bubble bath. Sometimes you have to "DO YOU" I used the Time for the Bubbly stamp from MFT My Favorite Things. I did paper piecing to make the wallpaper for the bathroom. I also used ribbon and flowers from Hobby Lobby!!! My cardstock had adhesive backing and was purchased from Joann. I love working with polka dots. I think I maybe getting better if I may say so myself!!!

But I need it... for good luck

This is my first card using Hanna Stamps. I made this for a coworker that had an interview with another job and needed the motivation. I tried the masking technique and even added a mini purse charm on the card also. stay tuned for all ingredients...Once again this is my first card so stay with me as I grow with rubberstamping...






Happy Birthday Grandma

Today is Ms. Dorothy May Phillips birthday. I hope that you are Rest in Peace Grandma!!! I never really knew how much you'd be needed around here until now. I know that I took for granted the time that I could have spent with you and now that you are gone, I wish that I could have that time back. But I know that you care with me in my mind and heart...

My Favorite Card

This is my favorite stamp. It's my version of Madame Butterflyy. I got it from JoAnn's. It's made from Stampabilities. The real name of this stamp is Prissy Penny. It is so cute and prissy!!! I made this using polka dot and metallic cardstock from JoAnn's. I got the brown ribbon from Hobby Lobbys Ribbon Scrap Bags. I added a gold button on the ribbon and abrown one on the flower. The buttons came from Hobby Lobby and the flower from Walmart!!! I used Distress Embossing Ink Brown to distress the edges of the card and the white flower. I love using polkadot paper with this stamp to compliment her dress I got the polkadot ribbon from Michaels for only a dollar!

Edges and Markers...Embossing Stamp

Cosmobella anyone?

This is my first stamp that I purchased from Stamping Bella -Cosmobella. I made this card for someone that had graduated and needed a little drink!!! I purchased the citrus paper from Recollections. I accented it with ribbons from Michaels one dollar bin and also accented with flat sparks and tags from Tags 2 Go. I used the sentiment "Just for You" from JoAnns Quotes Stamp set and matted the Bella stamp with JoAnns glitter stack pack. The lips punch was from JoAnns as well and the gems were from Hobby Lobby multi gems pack. It's one of my first cards so stay tune to see how much I will improve over time...
