Happy Spring card

I know that in some areas (like my house) spring still looks far away. It really isn’t that far off.  It is time to order your spring stamping supplies. Remember Easter comes early this year. Are you ready to scrapbook those egg hunt photos?happy-spring-card0001.jpg

Baby brag book

I made this for a friend I’m including photo corners so that she can stick pics of the baby in herself. Her little girl isn’t born yet so I couldn’t put the photos in for her. I have never made one of these like this. I’m not to sure about it. My problem may be that it is just not my style.

I hand bound the book and then embellished the pages.  I think if I ever make another one, I’ll do it differently. lol. There are places for her to write as well.

My Valentine’s Day card

I made this card to give to my DH. I hope he likes it!

Supplies:

Red and white card stock

Red ink ( I used my red impress marker)

Embossing stamp pad

Clear embossing powder

Stamp sets:

curls & swirls (t-2773)

I love you stamp from set T-2144. Words that you like will do.

Cut and fold the red card stock for your card base. I cut the white to be 1 inch smaller than the red on each end. So you will have about a half inch of red showing behind the white. The I stamped the white with a stamp from the curls & swirls set in red. Then on a smaller piece of red card stock I stamped I Love You with my embossing pad and embossed them with clear embossing powder. I didn’t have a hart shaped stamp so I folded a piece of white card stock in half and cut a hart out. I stamped it with a different stamp for the curls & swirls set. I used my heat gun to set the ink so it wouldn’t come off on my embossing pad. Then I pressed the hart into the embossing pad to get it all covered. I used the clear embossing powder on the hart to give it some shine.

You can order all the supplies for this card at my TAC site. These kind of cards don’t have to wait for Valentine’s Day. Show someone you love them on other days too!
