I have been making a few notepads instead of cards.

1. I used Cherrylynn dies, Martha Stewart punches and Marianne dies

I use one sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock and a writing pad attached to the inside of folder.

We live in a country that is free to believe as we choose and have had many who have served to protect us. 

Something New

Using embossing folder, spellbinders die, and stamp of orchid. Coloring with copic pens.

Shading and stamping.

Notepads with Embroidery

I have been busy crafting but have not put any of my items on the web. Here goes some of the items I have made. I have used some machine embroidery for my cards and notepads.

Bird in the Window

Lady in the Hat

I need to add something, I have been too busy making, giving and sending. But here is an item I recently made. I used spellbinders dies and my embroidery machine to sew the picture.

Wedding Journal

This was made by my daughter, Christa, for her friend to be married soon. She found some pictures of the couple together and put them in this album.

Something New

Adding something new. Using embroidery machine and card making accessories.

I did not realize it's been so long since I added a card to my blog. But it's Christmas time and I am busy again making cards. Here are some of the ones I have created. I used the three wise men stamp and embossed. The tree is a new sizzix die on a tri-fold card.

Warm Fuzzies

What's This!!!  Forty warm fuzzies for third grade (only have 70 more to go).

This is birthday card for a TCU fan and alumni.  The digi is from doodlepantry.com.

Halloween treat boxes

Enjoy the Day

This was done with purple metal and a Sizzix embossing folder with the background stenciled. The outer portion was done with Spellbinders die.

The Gate

I used Our Daily Bread stamp and a Sizzix embossing folder.

Easy To Do

These have been done with embossing folders and dies. Very simple and quick when you don't have a lot of time. I used dies from Papertrey Ink, Spellbinders and Cheery Lynn Designs, and embossing folders from Sizzix and Cuttlebug. Punch used for label EK Success. The stamp is from Our Daily Bread Designs.

BD Encouragement

This is a swing card made with Our Daily Bread stamps.

Used MFS (Nature's Postage) and Tim Holtz embossing folder.

Trailing leaves

I used the trailing leaves, flowers, and dragonfly from cheerylynn designs on the first card; then used the negative cutout of the leaves on the second card (no waste).
