Check it out!

Hi everyone, 

Hope your summer is going well! Mother Nature is not sure what season it should be here in the Midwest!

A couple weeks of upper 90's, then a week of mid 70's go figure.

I wanted to share with you all that on July 22nd the Autumn issue of CardMaker Magazine is due out.  I am excited and honored to have two of my card designs chosen for this edition!

Check it out!  The issue is jam packed with amazing cards, tips and ideas; I'm sure you will find lots of inspiration!

Here is a picture of the cover, I just got this copy in the mail today from CardMaker...thanks Tanya!!

Another wedding invitation

Thought I would share another invitation that I did for my daughter's friend...

Hope she will like it!

A couple of very meaningful cards...

I know October is set aside as Breast Cancer awareness month but I find myself making cards like this now. An Aunt who is near and dear to me is dealing with cancer at this time, so I am making cards as a way to show my support, care & love. 

And another...

I can only imagine how scary all of this is for her. Love you Aunt Carol!

The beginning of "Wedding Season"

Thought I would share a couple of the projects that I have been working on...

The first picture is of the wedding invitation shadow box that I did for my friends son & her soon to be daughter in law!

The second is a picture of the wedding card that will go along with the shadow box gift. Hope they like them; I had fun making them!!

Still not quite Spring...

Still a little chilly here, but we have been teased with 70's for a few days!  I am hopeful that we will at least have no more snow!!

I have another egg to share, this one is on a paper mâché egg.  It is for my aunt...she broke the last real one!!  

Happy Spring!!

Well here in the Midwest they say it is Spring, but I'm not sure I believe them! 

Still a little chilly here and a few snow flurries in the last couple days.

Anyway...I have been "Thinking Spring!"...and wanted to share a little chicken egg with you.  I used the Punch Bunch Rose/Begonia punch;  I like the way the flower came out! 

Eggs are a great canvas for decorating and they are sort of a "recycle" project...gotta love that!

Wedding Invitations

Hello everyone,

I have had a request to share a couple of pictures of wedding invitation shadow boxes that I have made.  These are so fun to make!

This last picture is a graduation announcement. 

You can do wedding invitations, graduation announcements, birth announcements, First Communion or Confirmation certificates...whatever you would put into a frame!!

Have a great day and find some time to craft!!
