Apron Card

I can't believe a week has gone by! We have begun our busy spring with soccer, baseball and may school activities.


Aprons seem to be a big thing right now and I saw someone made an apron card using a template. As I began to thing about it, I thought that I could make a cute apron using the large scallop circle die for the Big Shot. So, here is my creation. I hope you enjoy it:)

Beautiful Wings Embossilit

This is another clean and simple card! The butterflies were made by using the Beautiful Wings embossilit (I have used this embossilit tons!). I dry embossed the white cardstock with the polka dot embossing folder, added some olive satin ribbon and tied with a button and linen thread.

Mother's Day















Mother's Day will be here soon. I thought the flower pot card would be perfect for my mom, since we often give her a gift card for a greenhouse. The envelope scrapbook was given to me from my good friend and fellow demo, Brenda Hukriede (anyone in the Eau Claire, WI area looking for an awesome demo, get in contact with her!). This scrapbook/card is made from envelopes as the name implies:) On the three inserts of each envelope, you could place a picture or write a note. Neither the card or the scrapbook would have to be for Mother's Day, just an idea. If you would like to learn how to make these, email me to sign up for my class that I am having Friday, April 23.

Birthday Invite

The card on the left is the card I made for Lily's birthday invites this year. It uses the owl from the stamp set Fox & Friends. The owl has some glitter on its body to jazz it up a little. The card on the right is the card she used for her thank yous. This layout is one that I come back to again and again. I pulled the colors for the invite from the Sweet Pea designer paper.

Designer Paper


The designer paper does all the work on this card! I added some glitter to the Pink Flamingo designer paper, ran the white cardstock through the big shot to emboss with polka dots, and of course had to add a button to the ribbon (I'm addicted to buttons!). I thought this card would be perfect for a teenage girl. My husband wasn't too crazy about the colors/brightness, but I like it:)

Square Scallop Set of Notecards

Sometimes I wonder what I would do without my Big Shot. I LOVE it! and as you can tell use it a lot.

These cards use the scallop square die and flower folds die along with flower fusion felt flowers. These cards were designed by Andrea Walsford and her blog can be found here. I fell in love with the bright colors. I think a set of these would make a perfect little gift.
