Fun Style Cards

Sun & Sea themed card for a friend's birthday! Love this stamp set from Stampin up and love making these split style cards with acetate for a see-thru message. Such an easy card to make and perfect for the summer here in Maine, should have added a lobster!

This style card is called a pop out/accordion card. I used Graphic 45's Fairie Wings collection. Another birthday card for the end of July birthday!

Lastly, this is a double Z fold card which is one of my favorite cards to make. It gives you plenty of room to decorate and for the sentiment. This paper collection is an echo park collection which the name escapes me for the moment but there are so many beautiful beach/sea paper collections out there. Happy Birthdays to Mary, Joni & Vicki!!

Summer Birthdays!

This time of year I can't help but make birthday cards with flowers! My daylilies are in bloom and I just love all the color in our yard! This card is for my sister, Adrianne who has a birthday on the 23rd and had to use Graphic 45's BLOOM collection which is so beautiful! It is 3 panel accordion card which is another fun fold to make for a birthday card. Happy Birthday Adrianne!

This Z fold birthday card is for a grandson of great friends of ours. Caden lives in Florida and has become quite a football player. He is a quarterback for his team and his parents are pretty proud of him. He has a birthday next week and I hope this card gets to him in time. Keep up the good work Caden and Happy Birthday! Just a couple pictures of some summertime fun!

Hello July!

This wedding card is for my daughter who is attending a wedding on July 4th! What a great day for a wedding celebration complete with fireworks! This is Becca Feeken's diorama, Happily Ever After dies. It makes such beautiful cards!

I made a pocket with the sentiment on the outside so you can put a gift card, cash or check for the bride and groom. These style cards can be folded and put into a 6x6 envelope but because of the embellishments I added, I decided make a small box and put the card in it.

The box measures 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 and fits perfectly! I have been busy repurposing some items that I have had for a while. Painting the items and then putting some transfers on them and I love the way them came out. I put some of these items and facebook and was able to sell the picnic basket! Love that people love them!
