Love is in the Air.

This card is a test of my new Stampin up embosslits.  They are the little hearts with four different textures on them.  The friendship jar is die cut and covered with CTMH liquid glass.  The stamps are from CTMH. 

Christmas Cards from 2011

This year I want to learn how to blog more efficiently and how to upload pictures that are more bloglike. I also want to organize my scraproom and improve my food diet.  These are some CTMH stamps and the bottom border is with my new CTMH ruler.  It has the zigzag holes in the ruler so all you need to do is poke thru the paper.  The best way to make it look like real sewing or floss is to  use two different color pens.  I use Sakura 3D pens.  I use the Souffle going in one direction and then the Glaze in the opposite.  Everyone thought I used thread.  The sides was a zigzag Sizzix border.  I hope to get better at this blogging this year.  Anyone have any tips for learning please send them to me.  Eve

Thank You card

I want to let you know I have not posted in a while.  On Dec. 15th my main computer went down after a totally  full hard drive crashed.  I have since been able to do a few things on it after a major clean out.  Now I am using a little netbook.  I find it limiting but still better than nother at all.  This is a Thank you card I made for a friend and requires a large envelope.  I usually make my own envelope using the Martha Stewart scor board due to the 3D nature of the front of the card. I am looking at new computers so maybe will be posting more soon.

Little Owls Made with CTMH paper and a Fiskars Punch

I saw these little owls in a Crate&Barrel catalog and thought they were so cute.  They were made of fabric and sold for $23.95 for 3.  I copied them with paper and used the Fiskars Chrstmas light bulb punch for the nose.  I double punched the nose with orange and yellow card stock to give it a layered look.  The paper is a sample pack from Close To My Heart.
