50th Birthday

 




Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our daughter’s 50th birthday. I had made one of these peek-a-boo cards for our son’s 50th so our daughter gets one too.

Papers are all The Paper Studio from Hobby Lobby, ovals are Spellbinders Scalloped and Classic ovals. Numbers are from the Silhouette, doubled with Glossy Accents on them. Photo corners are from a hand punch then I ran them through a dots embossing folder. Inside sentiment was printed on the computer then fussy cut with a decorative scissors. Her 50 year picture is a selfie.

The video I followed is on Splitcoast Stampers here

Halloween Trellis

 



Hello and welcome. Since I’ve really enjoyed making trellis cards, I thought that design would could make a cool Halloween card. I found the patterned paper across the top panel online then saved it to my Halloween file. For this card I just resized it. I started thinking the “planks” would look pretty cool cut from distressed wood pp. So of course I Googled Distressed wood background paper and found just what I wanted. Skull is a sticker I found in my stash, bats, spiders, ghost are die cuts also found in my stash. I added red stickles to the bats, yellow to the spiders and black to the ghost’s eyes. Top of ghost is popped with double pop dots, other images just have single pop dots.

You're The Zest

 



Hello and welcome. I found the idea for today’s card on Pinterest.

Lemons are from an online coloring page colored with Copic’s and fussy cut. You’re the zest image was also found online then cut with Die-namics stitched circles die. Circle is popped up. Since my brain doesn’t do well with measurements and spacing this took me a couple tries but I’m very happy with the end result.
