Easter

To celebrate Easter I created three cards to give away to relatives. The first one was a sporatic checkerboard of printed paper and even a couple squares of chocolate wrappers with painted picture of animals on them. The second I stenciled, cut out the words "EASTER" Placing a spotted ribbon over it, and placing fasteners to keep it in place. The final card was pretty simple, just the placement of letters.

Get Well Card

Here is another one sided card idea, made for an ill friend. It really has no theme, just a pretty simple card with lots of paper layering. The cardstock was recycled elephant poo.

Welcome Back Card

This card was for a friend returning from a trip. I made it a spanish theme for it is an ongoing inside joke between the two of us. It is a greet card, one sided to appear less formal. I used stickers and images from the Scrap Booking Kit Calendar. The typing is made from word.

 

Girl Birthday Card

My sister's birthday was coming up so I decided to make a bee themed birthday card. It turned out pretty cute. I used the front images of the flowers from the scrapbooking kit. the lettering was down by hand. All of the bees were cut out and made by myself. I like to handwrite my little post inside of the card. For a really sleek and professional look try typing it out on the computer in a nice font then print it off. I prefer to hand write for a more personal card.

Mardi Gras Invitation

Since my Birthday was on the week of Mardi Gras I decided to have a themed small get together with my friends. Here are the invitations that I sent out. I made each one different, printing out a mask and hand color it, than gluing on sequins. I made about nine cards.

Father's birthday fish card

Simple Birthday Card

My Father's birthday is coming soon so I am sending him this card. It was very simple, took a couple of minutes. I got the fish paper from a calendar scrapbooking kit, the card is was a plain white card from a fifty pack from Walmart.
What I like most about the card was the inside, I used stamping for the 'Happy Birthday'. On the outer layer of the paper I used yellow and red ink and smudged it on the edge using a tissue, a neat effect.
