Christmas cards

Image
Well I have been extremely busy doing my christmas cards, i have some pictures posted of some of the cards I have created this year, but unfortunately not all, Ryk misplaced the camera when cleaning to put up the christmas decorations, so I then remembered my ipod has its camera so that is what i have taken these pictures with. The rest have gone to all the girls at work, and not able to get pictures of them this year. Probably not the best pictures but you will get the idea anyway. Sorry the one that is sideways I do not know how to turn it, it is not showing sideways in my folder, lol, I had alot of different ones that I did with both cutting from cricut and stamping images and coloring with copics and water color pencils but do not have any pictures. The elephant one is a shaker card which is fun to do. The picture of the present one is a money card holder that I found on a website also. it is really pretty with a pull out bulb to put the money in. These are my christmas ...

Birthday Card

Well this is my new post, I went to Kim's and had a great time making a card, this was originally suppose to be a fathers day card but as my step sons birthday comes first decided to change it into a birthday card. This is a stamp from Stamping Up lovely as a tree and it is kind of nice, Kim helped me with what to do on this card. Thank you Kim it turned out really nice after all the fussing.

New Cards

Well I have now created 3 more cards, I went to my friend Kim's on Saturday and we created cards 2 from the materials she had ready for me, as she is teaching me how to create cards, Kim is trying to convince me that card making is fun, I am still struggling with that, but I am not giving up, while I was at Kim's we used a sketch from 411 blogspot and created my Honey's Birthday card from scratch, Ok yes it was fun. I totally love getting together with Kim to create, I am also helping her with copics which she is not sure she likes either..lol so I guess the 2 of us together can convince each other.

This is my newest card that I created for my copic class that I am taking online at the Simply Scrapping website http://simplyscrapping.ning.com/ It was fun to create and put together, we had more snow today and disappointed that I was not able to go to my friend Kim's tonight we have been getting together to do copic coloring together it is a highlight of my week. Well hopefully next week.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day

Well sat down tonight and made a card for my Irish man, to wish him a Happy Saint Patrick's day as I had the luck of the Irish when I met him. Here is the picture of the card I created with the nice paper my friend Kim gave me. Thanks Kim. I am trying to teach her to color with copics and she is trying to teach me how to lay out a card. So far I am not really getting it. But hopefully with time I will.

Well sat down today and created a new card with the Maggie stamp i colored with copics, sorry do not know her name, the paper roses I made with the directions from Penny duncans creations http://pennyduncancreations.blogspot.com/ one of my favorite blog spots, I used glitter on the crown and the lace to give her some bling. Still not sure that I am getting any better at this creating cards thing yet but still trying. I love the coloring part of the cards but when it comes to creating the card itself not sure what i am doing or what it is going to be used for. LOL. Anyway here she is in all her crown and glory.
