Thinking of You Silhouette Card

 This is a simple card - an ink blended background and a stamped image. I placed a detailed frame around the image and added a hot foiled sentiment at the bottom. 

Hello Friend

 This card was created for the Sketchy Saturday Challenge - it is on Facebook. 

I chose three patterns and arranged the pieces according to the sketch. The "hello" was heat embossed and I added a larger sentiment underneath. A few iridescent gems were placed around the sentiment. 

Blue Flowers on Hexagons

 This card was inspired by one I saw on Pinterest. 

I die cut hexagons from two pieces of white cardstock and embossed the top layer. On the card base, I adhered a detailed die cut background piece to show behind the opening. The flowers were stamped, stencilled and die cut and arranged along the left corner. A hot foiled sentiment was placed near the bottom and I added clear gems to finish off this pretty card. 

Poinsettia Burst Out Fun Fold Card

 I posted a card like this a while ago with two skaters - this one was made with poinsettia images in a more traditional Christmas colour scheme. 

The card folds out beautifully for display but folds flat to fit in an A2 envelope. I added a hot foiled sentiment at the top. 

ABC Challenge - Letter V

 This card is for the Alphabet Challenge that I have been doing throughout the year. 

The letter V wasn't hard for me as I have done a technique on vellum that I love. 

The background for this card was created by scribbling alcohol markers on vellum and then "painting" with isopropyl alcohol. That allows the colours to move, making it look like alcohol inks were used. I added a triple layer HAPPY and an ombre stamped birthday sentiment. 

Triple Panel Card

 This is a simple card that is a bit of a fun fold. The three panels gradually get smaller toward the edge of the card. I added a sentiment and some small white flowers around that piece. There is a circle inside the card for a place to write a message. 

Rounded Squares Butterfly Card

 This is such a simple card to make - just four rounded squares with butterfly in the centre. I splattered the background before adding the pieces and placed a die cut sentiment at the bottom.

Celebrate Bird Trio

 This card is from the 30 Minute Card Making Stash Dash. 

The parameters were as follows: Type of Card: A2 landscape, Colours: warm OR cool, Embellishment: animal, Technique: fussy cutting and Occasion: celebrate or sympathy. 

I fussy cut the birds and placed them on a raised panel with twine across the piece. The background was lightly stencilled and I added a die cut sentiment at the bottom. 

Dearest Friend

 This is such a pretty fun fold card and it folds flat to 5x7 for mailing. 

I chose old Graphic 45 papers for this card and selected 4 patters that complement each other. I also cut the papers so the patterns would be continuous. 

The front sentiment was embossed and I added some flowers as well. Inside the card, I used the same flowers for the top and bottom panels and added a second sentiment on the centre panel. I didn't put any embellishments on this card to allow it to fold flat. 

Cup of Happy Cards

 This set of cards is from the latest Let's Stamp Together subscription. The kit was provided by Brutus Monroe. 

The mugs are so cute - all have openings in the top so the whipped cream, marshmallows, etc. can be inserted if desired. 

Do you have a favourite card? I think mine is the card with the angled sentiment and lots of white space.
