I've had some good reasons to make cards the last couple of months. My favorite reason to make them is to give them as gifts...door prizes for baby/wedding showers. Just wanted to share...and also have pics in a handy place for me to refer back to. A lot of them use a simple layout with pretty papers in order to save time when I need to make a lot of them in a short amount of time.

This one was not my original idea. I got it from a card kit that I bought from our local scrap booking store. I love how they used wooden paper to make the button for this card!!

I wish I could take credit for this one too, but again it was from a card kit from the same store. 

...another card kit one...I couldn't resist it!

This one I found the idea for on split coast stampers. It differs a little from the original. 

I tried to remake this one as best as I could with what I had...the original idea came from the SU catalog.

This one I found the idea for on Pinterest. Here is the original.

I have a pinterest board with all my card/stamping ideas. I love it because I can see all the ideas at once and have ideas ready for when I need to make a card. Like this one:

I tried my own version of this card and it turned out super cute. It's a little different because I didn't have the same embossing folder..or the same ribbon and button, etc., but it still turned out super cute.

Scrapbook Sunday

Here's a card for Scrapbook Sunday. :)

No time to upload any cute kids' pictures right now, but maybe next week...Lucy painted 

a lovely little picture of ME that I can't wait to show you all. :)

Catie...notice...no bird?! (next week)

Scrapbook Sunday

I'll start with Lucy's picture first this week because I'm so proud of it! She decided that she wanted to give this to our favorite chiropractor, Dr. Bill. :) It is a downy woodpecker.

And here is another bird for you. :)

Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?   Matthew 6:25-26

Scrapbook Sunday???

We had a busy day last week and I missed sharing...so here are a couple shots for this week:

Scrapbook Sunday???

Well, I told Catie that I would try to join her on her Scrapbook Sunday posts. I have one problem. I don't do any scrap booking anymore. :(  I'll spare you the long explanation. Anyway, I do LOVE to make cards, so I thought I could post a picture of a card I've made.
This is a bad picture...a bit blurry...and it was difficult to really capture the colors of this card, but nonetheless, I was very pleased with how this card turned out.

Well, since scrapbooking is usually about your kids, I felt bad joining this and only showing off my handiwork...so here is a painting of Lucy's...an apple :)
