A series of cards I made

I seem to be drawn to this pad of paper I got last year - It has crushed velvet like paper and beautiful stripped and dotted paper.  I couldn't cut the paper - at first - but once I did - I couldn't stop making cards with it.  I have made 20 cards -using 5 or 6 sheets of paper-12x12.  So I still have lots more!  the pad also has stickers - which I used!  Many don't look like stickers - which is what I loved!  This time I decided I wanted stripes and dots for the top and bottom section - and a different pattern to go over where these connect.  Then I added "stuff".  I really enjoyed the results.  I also located the instructions for my Crop a Dile - and used it on two cards to set brads!!!! 

Simple but Sincere

Here is my card for October 3rd Midweek Throwdown - I had a vision - it did not, however, work! This card idea was my 2nd vision!  I don't know that it worked but I do like it.  This is the 1st time I have scanned a card to get a picture - the black spots don't exist in reality! (hehe) And the colors are white and calypso coral!  So much for my vision!

Sometimes when my creativity is at a low to medium level - I look through my paper collection for inspiration - I forgot I had this 12x12 pad of paper with black velvet-y dimensional paper!  It got my attention!!!!!!  The pad also had matching stickers that were velvet-y also  - I made several different cards with the paper - and really really enjoyed the feel of the paper and the resulting cards.  I hope whoever receives them loves the feel also.  And even better - I still have more paper just like it!

So many stickers - the oval the swirls and the sentiment!
 

Red and Green

Here is a card using red and green (okay it is a Christmas card!) for OWH Midweek Throwdown.

Feel Better SOON!

I made this card for the teacher my husband works with - she thought somebody was changing lanes and would hit her on her Vespa - so she hit her brakes hard!  She severely injured her elbow and cracked her knee!  Life changed permanently in a second!    About one year ago I invited her to a Stampin Up workshop and she loved it and became a rep.  I hope she enjoys my card!
