Lexi's First Birthday!

Happy Birthday Lexi!  Made this card for my great niece.  She turns 1 tomorrow and she is a little angel. I bought this stamp 2 months ago and wanted to use it for Christmas but just didn't get around to it.  When the invitation came for Lexi's party, I thought this would be perfect!  Copic markers were used to color Angel Tilda. I also used sizzix stars and cloud dies.  The cloud is embossed  with cuttlebug EF. I had so much fun doing this card and purple is my new favorite color. Directions for this card,the funky fold design, is http://sweeetdesignby cheryl.blogspot.com

Owl Lovers

Love is in the air!  I love the owl punch and wanted to use it again for Valentine's Day. I used the nesties for the hearts and then MS punch for the sides of the card.    The black shows the MS punch better than the gray but I liked both combinations.  The paper is SU and it is so beautiful I wanted to use it again. It is just the right red!   Thanks for looking!

Gretel's Birthday

Our dog, Gretel, is going to be 5 years old tomorrow.  She was so cute as a puppy!  She loves people and has so much energy. I think she still thinks she is a puppy! Since this is my first posting on my new blog, I thought it would be fitting to picture, Gretel.  Please visit again for more postings!
