Hang in there card!

Here's a card I made for a fellow crafter that is undergoing knee surgery yet again. Let's hope this time they get it right. This is a double window card with a color transparency as the focal point.The background stamp is by Impression Obsession. I made this card in a class using their big stamps and rocking acrylic block which really works.

With sympathy card

Here's a card I made for a fellow crafter that just lost her Mom. It has a photo window with a double border and uses an all over stamp by Impression Obsession on the green cardstock.

Time Gone By card

Here's another "Time gone by" card. This is a mirror version of one I posted back in March. Like the other is uses papers from the K&Co Life's Journey collection. I used the print and cut feature of my Silhouette to make the pocket watch and sentiment. Those were raised with pop dots.

Wherever you go card

Here's a card I modified from a WeR Memory Keepers card kit. The sentiment that was supposed to go with this card was "You are amazing". Now that's not a bad greeting but it didn't seem to go with the car theme in my mind. I didn't apply the sentiment and decided to make my own using my Silhouette. A nephew that is having a birthday (and just got his license) is getting this card. The inside says "there you are". It's a phrase my hubby says and I'm not sure where he got it from but I thought my nephew would like it on a card.

Thinking of you card

Here's a card I made that will actually be used as a birthday card. After all, you do think of the folks you are sending birthday cards right? This was made using materials from Technique Tuesday. Many of their stamp sets have small pieces so you can create a scene. For this one the, the roses were separate from the stems so you can make the stems longer or shorter. I stamped the vase on the white paper,  added the flowers and stamped the vase again on the green paper and cut it out to hide the part of the stem that would be "in the water".

Best Wishes card

Here's a card I made using items from SEI that I got in a class. There were two of each card but the papers were double sided so you could get two different looks. Even the sentiments were a bit different. This one is for a young couple celebrating their 2nd anniversary.

Tie one on card

Here's a card I made using a technique that I saw online by Gina K. online. I used plain old left over blue paper and did the same technique also with London Fog color ink. Mine isn't as dark as hers but I'm happy with it nonetheless. I used Crafty Secrets stamps, cut out the designs and embossed them and added a border from Graphic 45 Proper Gentlemen paper.

Thanks card

Here's a card I made for some cousins I stayed with a few weeks ago. I used some left over papers and embellishments. I used some decorative scissors on the background piece and did a bit of outlining to highlight the edges of the papers.

Hi! card

Yet another in my cards made with materials by Hot off the press. To me these colors work well for a "guy" card, and the generic sentiment also works for a birthday card so that's how I used it. A fellow genealogist cousin had a birthday recently so I sent it to him. It's his fault I fell into the black hole of genealogy!
