Simple and Easy Cards

Hello Everyone,

Today I wanted to share a card design that is very quick and easy to make. And fun.  The vibrant colored papers, large sentiment, and pretty ribbon make a big statement.

The cards were made for the Cards from the Heart card drive.  I made 16 of the cards and just a couple are shown below.

This card is also a great design to use all those odds and ends of decorative papers you have in your stash.







Happy you stopped by today. See you next time for more crafty card projects.

Squirrely Owls


 Hello Everyone,

I am back today with more cards!  This set of cards with the squirrely Owls were made for a card drive. I think the owls are just so goofy looking. They really make me smile. 

Information on the card drive can be found here.

The owls were stamped with Archival ink and colored with markers.  Then some of the owls were fussy cut and layered on with dimensional adhesive. Others were stamped directly onto white cardstock.

So glad you stopped by today.  I have a few more of the cards for the card drive that I will share in future posts. Hope you are having a lovely day.

Bike Collage

 Hello Everyone,

Today I have a few cards made with a stamp set I have had for years and haven't really worked with it that much.   So, I decided to get the stamps out and make a few cards for a card drive. The Card drive has been organized by Winter Simms.  You can see the details on her blog Winter wonderland.

Stamp from Stampin' Up

I stamped the image in different ink colors and layered with papers and cardstock.  I did a little bit of shading with Copic markers.










Glad you stopped by today.  I hope you are having a great day!!  See you next time with more cards.

Doilies and Floral Die cuts

 Hello Everyone,

Today I am back with more of the collection of cards I made for a card drive.  The card drive is sponsored by Winter on her blog Winter Wonderland .  The cards are for cancer patients, and you can read the details on her blog.


The cards were made with floral die cuts and paper doilies. I added ribbons and sentiments. 





This card is made with a tulip stamp from Stampin Up.


That is the last installment of the card drive cards.  So, I am not sure what I will have for the next post. I have some birthday cards needed for the end of the month.  Well, we will see.  LOL It is all fun.  

See you soon.

This stamp looks very much like lavender flowers--which I love.  






I will be back with one more post of the cards for the card drive.  I really enjoyed making the cards knowing they would hopefully brighten someone's day. See you next time.
