12 Days of Christmas

I used Graphic 45's beautiful 12 Days of Christmas collection including stickers & chipboard embellishments.

Fall Leaves

 This is my 1st attempt at resist stamping, I used a Tim Holtz Tattered leaf along with Peeled Paint, Rusty Hinge & Vintage Photo Distressing Inks. 

Vintage Christmas

Well, here I am again...I had a wonderful vacation in October went back to MI and visited all my friends that I miss so much. I have been busy in my newly upgraded craft room just haven't been posting so here goes.

Love this vintage looking card made using Tim Holtz new Christmas stamps along with inspiration from Pinterest.

Graphic 45 Secret Garden Mini Album

In a couple weeks I will be taking a trip home and wanted to make something for each of my friends I will be visiting. The is for a freind that has three adorable grandchildren so I think she will enjoy filling it with beautiful photos.

I used the Secret Garden collection from Graphic 45 and followed the basic idea for the album from a Follow the Paper Trail video.....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Z_6pe2ZhDI

I kept it simple so she would have space for lots of photos and journaling. 

Pages are made using kraft envelopes 4" x 5.5" from the Paper Studio.

Each pocket page has the pull out mat with the flap and another plain kraft pull out that can hold photos or journaling.

Altered Composition Book

Fun little project for today. Saw this wonderful picture on Pinterest and just had to do something with it. Since Gone With the Wind is one of my favorite movies thought this would be fun. I will use it on my desk so I can enjoy it everyday. 

Hummingbird Card

I was inspired to make this cute card after seeing the first hummingbird of season. Stamp is from Stampendous, paper is from DCWV The Luxury Stack.

Stack of Love Letters

Made another stack of Love Letters to use on my desk. Bird postcard is from Ephemera's Vintage Garden titled Vintage Birds Postcards No. 1. 

This one is tied with crinkled seam binding instead of ribbon and I really like it.

Thanks for stopping by.

Steampunk Spells Mini

Album measures approximately 6 x 6 has black chipboard covers and heavy card stock pages. It was inspired by one posted on eBay. Paper collection is Graphic 45 Steampunk Spells....finally decided to use some of my hoard. 

Masculine Birthday Card

Masculine cards are difficult for me...the basic idea for this came from one I saw on Pinterest. It will be in the mail tomorrow hope he likes it. 

Spring Banner

This banner was a swap project....its only the second banner I have ever made. I'm happy with the way it turned out and it was fun to make. 

Front Pocket Card

Just finished this Front Pocket Card for a swap...used pretty vintage paper from K&C Company Ancestry.com collection and two freebie tag sheets...Chic Garden & Ephemeral Rose from Ephemera's Vintage Garden.

Valentine Faux Book Candy Box

I love making these faux books and decided to make them for Valentine's Day this year. I got the idea from this YouTube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sf6OX5HSLbo

Sweet Sentiments Easter Card

Well, Graphic 45 has done it again with another gorgeous paper collection...Sweet Sentiments. With all the cold weather I thought working on something with a Spring theme would be nice.

Vintage Lady

I have been on a card making roll lately. This is made with free printables I found online. The base is my favorite kraft cardstock with textured black paper for the mat. Flowers are made using Spellbinders dies with a sequin added in the center....like these flowers as I can mail this card with no additional postage required.

File Folder Mini

 Love these little mini's so decided it was time to try one. It was a bit of a challenge but with the help of a freind I finally got one together....and I must add not without using several file folders before getting it right. But no problem them I had lots of extra material for tags and such. I used the 3 tab Kraft file folders from staples for the base and decorated it with Pink Paislee Hope Chest Collection.
