July Quilt


This was the quilt that I made for the pediatric unit at our hospital for the month of July. I think I love quilting as much as I do cardmaking and cooking.

PTI Square Card


This was a card I made for a swap with SCS using a PTI stamp. It had to be square. Of course I love anything with kitties on it.

Cherry Cobbler



Well you never know what is going to show up on my blog. Debbie at work gave me some great cherries so I decided to make a cobbler. I should be creating but I am cleaning, organizing and cooking instead. This was my Father's Day gift to my dad.

Happy Fathers Day


I made this very simple Fathers Day card for my dad. He loves to hunt so I thought this would be perfect for him. I used the PTI stamp set Masculine Motifs. I stamped on the background with the versamark and then just stamped on ivory card stock. Very simple but masculine look.

Digital Flower Card


This was a digital stamp that I colored with my copic markers. The butterflies were the SU die cut. I used the nestabilities to cut the flower picture and purple border. The Happy Birthday was 2 SU punches. I cut 1" off the bottom of the card and punched with a new edge border that I bought at Michaels. Thought I would give it a different look.

Dragon Fly Card


This was a card I made for a swap on SCS. I wasn't happy with the other dragon fly so I made this one. I used a cuttlebug folder to emboss the green. Cut the ovals with nestabilities on my Big shot. I used a new PTI stamp set for the green leaf and dragon fly.

PTI Swap 2


This was another card I made for a PTI swap. I stamped the leaves and did a stitch with my sewing machine around the white edge. I stamped the dragonfly on orange paper with black ink and then cut it out and put a little glitter on it. This stamp set was my latest purchase "Masculine Motifs" from PTI. Also going to use it to make a Fathers Day card. I used the ric rac die cut again for border and stamped thinking of you and used my punches from SU. Can't say this is my favorite card but trying to venture out on my color choices. I can only use pink and brown so many times.

PTI Card Swap May 2010


The was a birthday card that I made with my PTI Favorite stamp set "Everyday Button Bits" that I made for a SCS swap. I love using anything with buttons. I folded up the corner of the card and put some matching paper over the folded up corner. I used a hole punch to punch for the ribbon. I also used the PTI ric rac die cut for the bottom of the flower stamp.

Thank You Card


This was a fun thank you card that I made using the Stamps of Life Thank you set. I have signed up to get a new stamp set through them once a month. It is really a bargain if you want to add to your collection. I used the SU Top note die cut for the pink and then used a circle punch to cut out all the way to the inside of the card where I stamped the small flowers. Love the look.
