Spirelli Card

I thought I had posted this card long ago but I don't see it on here anywhere so I guess I didn't. :-)

This is created using the Sweet Pea DSP from the Occaisions Mini catalogue that is now retired.
I used the small and medium Spirelli punches that I've had forever and the large scalloped circle from the scallop circle #2 Big Shot die.
The cardstock I used is Chocolate chip, So Saffron and Old Olive. Whisper White for the card base.
The ribbon is a satin chocolate chip that is also retired.
I used regular quilting/sewing thread in a similar color to the old olive and in a metallic copper on the chocolate chip Spirelli flower.
I then put them all together with a 5/8 inch chocolate chip jumbo brad. To finish the Spirelli embellishment I used some left over copper peel off sticker negatives that have been sitting around begging to be used.
Next I used the Tiny Tags stamp set and Chocolate Chip Classic ink to create the tags which were punched out with the Medium Jewelery Tag punch. (These both can be found in the new Idea Book and Catalogue).
They were then attached to the embellishment on the card.

I'm pleased with the card. It is different!



Thanks for stopping by.

Mother's Day Cards

Traditionally we have a Mother's Day BBQ and have both sides of the family come for supper, and inevitably it rains or even snows. This year both our mothers are away for this day so it'll be a quiet day for us. I made these cards to send with the mothers and for the other mothers in our family.

These cards are all totally cased from several other demos and on-line blogs that I follow.

Hope you enjoy.








I cased this card from Tiffany Bauer: her blog can be found here: www.mycraftyworld.blogspot.com
I used Rich Razzleberry Classic Ink, Cards Stock and Polka Dotted Ribbon along with DSP from the Cottage Wall Collection. The image from Messages for Mom was stamped on Whisper White. I then attached a flower and half pearl from the pretties kit.









This card was cased from Carl Bazhenow's blog found here: www.carlascraps.com
The same image as above was used and then colored with inks and the blender pen. Layers were made from Shades of Spring DSP, Pretty in Pink and Melon Mambo, the edge was punched with the Scallop Trim Border punch. I used the small rhinestone brads found in the pretties kit to finish it off.






The Pink and Green cards were cased from Diana Gibbs, her blog can be found here:

I love the new satin ribbons, the purple one is one I had in my stash but it matches the Shades of Spring DSP perfectly). The sentiment is from Well Scripted set.

The Bermuda Bay card was cased from Jen Sannes, her blog can be found here: www.simpleandsincere.com
This one uses the SAB Welcome Neighbor DSP and the SAB set as well.

Thanks for looking!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all you mothers!

Green Beauty!

This pretty card was created using a Certainly Celery card base, the Sweat Pea DSP that was in the Occaisions mini catalogue, the Beautiful Wings embosslit and the new Satin Ribbon. The button is from the Playground button collection in the IBC and the sentiment from the stamp set "With All My Heart". It is a very simple elegant card if I do say so my self.



Thanks for stopping by,
I hope you all have a great holiday weekend!
