Birthday Gull shaker card

 A card I made awhile ago. I used various dies, a border punch, and an embossing folder.

 

 

250 years of Independence

 These 4th of July cards celebrate our 250 years since our declaration of  independence in a postage stamp design.

 

belated birthday card

 This is an old card I made for belated 4th of July birthdays.

 

 

4th of July scene

 The girl is from an old Stampin Up set. I masked over the flowers in her hand when inking the stamp and drew a little flag instead. The diecut numbers are holographic paper.

 

 

4th of July flag cards

 The idea for these cards came from Pinterest where I saw this flag design on a canvas. I thought the quote stamp (Tim Holtz) went perfect with it for the 250 years Independence Day.

 

4th of July - 250 years

 Used my old cricut for this! A Child's Year and Folk Art cartidges.

 

 

 

Some Pinterest inspired cards

Some older cards I made with ideas I found on Pinterest. I like to try and copy cards I like using things I have. It's a fun challenge! My cards will the ones first pictured followed by the inspiration card.

It's been quite some time since I made this so it's hard to remember but I think I had made my own stencil for the waves.

 I did end up buying the raindrop stamp but at the time I didn't have it.

Sunny Studio

 

This one I had the same die. I don't recall if it's the reason I bought it. LOL

A mix of dies. The little animals are Cottage Cutz.

 

Lawn Fawn

Made this for a friend using a raccoon for a joke.

Too many candles birthday card

 I got the idea of the flaming cake and burnt corner from Pinterest and have made 2 of these. I found the perfect stamp sentiment for the front and the inside is my own idea. I used some random dies to make the fire extinguisher. (Wine bottle, tiny letter y.)

 

 This was the first time I made the card.

 

Winnie-the-Pooh letterpress cards

 I used the Artist Loft watercolor paper from Michaels with Betterpress plates. The cheap watercolor paper isn't great for doing actual watercolors but makes pretty decent letterpress paper. 

 

Ink blended cards

 I got the ideas/inspiration from Pinterest. The inspiration for the first card is below but I don't have any for the other 2 cards. 

 

 

Sunflowers - thinking of you

 This is a card I made for someone a couple years ago. It ended up arriving too late. :(  The sunflowers are symbolic of her childhood where she grew up.

I used some diecut washi from Pinkfresh. Inside I mixed them in with some pop up flowers I made from a tutorial on Pinterest.

 

  

Fall cards

 Some cards I made for a challenge just getting them posted on my blog now. I used my Kaleidoscope Creations stamps on the second set.

 

All occasion cards

 Some cards I made quite a few years ago and finally finished up with sentiments. 

 

Christmas cards 2025

 More cards from last Christmas. I often make 2 at a time as I don't enjoy making a bunch of all one design.

The deer cards (which I didn't get a sentiment on the front until later) were sent to people who had had a recent loss of a spouse. I think they said something like wintertime wishes and warm winter wishes. 

 

 

Halloween cards 2025

 A couple of cards I made inspired from ones I saw on the internet. The first one was inspired by a card I saw made with Spellbinders dies by Sarah Leese. The haunted house is a counterfeit from an SCT one day event. I had to come up with ways to make parts of the house as I didn't even have tiny window dies. I wish I had the actual house die set because I had another idea!

 

 

Shine Bright Christmas cards

 2025 Christmas cards.  I used craft foam for 'bright' on the first card and iridescent paper for 'shine' on the second.

 

 

Christmas cards 2025

 A couple of the designs I made. Both were inspired by cards I saw online. 

 

 

Lantern Christmas Card

 From a cut file I made myself. Inspired by the lantern dies and cards I saw from Pinkfresh Studio and Divinity Designs.

 

 

Valentine's (or thinking of you)

 Made these for Valentine's day. (again, didn't get the cards out this year)  Could be used for other occasions, too.  I used some stationery, hence the lines, and the large hearts are woven Danish hearts stuff with just a tiny bit of fluff.

 

 

St Patrick's day cards

Never got these out. There's always next year. LOL
