Spring is here!

I have been busy creating and not so busy posting. Sorry! Here are a few cards that I made for Easter. I am a little behind in mailing cards out this year, but I hope my family likes their cards.


I love this card. It is just so simple and dainty.
Supplies: Certainly Celery, Pretty in Pink, Whisper White card stock. I sponged the petals with Rose Red Classic ink to give some depth. Certainly Celery ribbon (from last years Sale-A-Bration) I do not have any more of the Satin Ribbon which I would have used on this card. Sizzix: Big Shot (You NEED one of these!), Top Note die and polka dot embossing folder. Too cute!

The next card uses the same colors of card stock. I saw a simillar one on Stampin Addicts. I didn't add the scrunchie flower because I have to mail it and I don't have time to get a special envelope. I will for sure rock this one out for Mother's Day!


The only different supplies were the Large Fancy Flower punch and 5 petal flower punch. The sizzix supplies that is different is the Simple Flower. Again, I would have used the Satin Ribbon from the 2010 Occasions Mini catalog. I LOVE that ribbon. I will be taking stock in that for my sisters wedding invitations.

I hope that you like my cards. I would love to hear some comments!

Post It Note Purse

I saw a cute Post It Note purse here and knew that I had to make one of my own. I have a friend that sells Thirty One purses and have been making cards for her. How cute would this be to hand to a customer?

Supplies Used:
Papers: Bermuda Bay, Whisper White Card Stock, Thoroughly Modern DSP
Misc. Accessories: Rhinestone brad, Basic Black 1/4 grosgrain ribbon, silver brads
Punches: Large tag punch (hidden behind the flower), corner rounder
Big Shot! (You NEED one of these!) Blossom Party Die

I will be making more of these for sure. Super easy and cute! A perfect teacher or Mother's Day gift.  I will work on making a quick and easy tutorial for these soon.
