I've been busy again....

The first 11 are the cards from the new solutions cartridge 'Spring Holiday Cards'. I used the same background from all of them. I love the Fungi one! There are a few that could be used anytime. These are so easy and fast! I think I would embellish them some. You could just write on the back of it or attach to a card. I think I cut the large ones are 5 3/4" and the small one at 3 1/4". (fit to size for envelope landscape and portrait.) Has alot of different shapes to 'attach' them to, you can just slip into slits on corners! So easy-peasy.















This card is made with "Just Because" Cards cartridge. I cut the card and boarder out, then the pig & Hogs and Kisses from a different section of the same cartridge. I used Valentine paper I got in packs from Target $ bin last year. The 'heart w/wings' I used from the solutions cartridge Love Struck 2010.

I got two new cartridges today....

Designer's Calendar and Mother's Day Bouquet. Haven't played with the Calendar cartridge yet, but look at the pretty flower I made. I used a stamp with words and cut a flower and the rest are just plain white cartridge that I inked on the edges and the biggest one I used Stickles. These are going to look great on cards! I used a pearl as the center!

A country life card....

I've got so many ideas for this cartridge, but remember a pitcher in a bowl in our guest room when I was growing up on a farm in Kentucky. I still think of myself as a country girl, even after living 30 years in St. Louis. I always felt like a round peg in a square hole---it wasn't a good fit.
I used Martha Stewards butterfly punch with 3 stamps for the butterfly and an unknown stamp set I pick up at Micheal's--'Just For You'--(I think).

I love adding a little surprise on the inside. I used an old Martha Stewart leaf punch and a set of a very small flower punch I got at Target (got a Christmas set and a cupcake set--top and bottom--also) and put a center on the flowers with my I-Rock. I think the little flower punch set is from EK.

I got my new solutions cartridge late yesterday afternoon -- Spring Holiday Cards -- they are so cute--came so close to not getting them! They are great for some really fast fun cards! Love them--will make pictures and post later!

Hope you like my Pitcher card. I LOVE COMMENTS!!! I would like to be making cards than blogging about the cards I made--UNTIL I get a comment on my post!

Thanks to you who regularly leave comments--they keep me sharing!

I had seen one of these on youtube....

And thought it was cute. I used the Fabulous Find (not a cartridge I think of when making a card--just use for accessories) but this was adorable!


I got this stamp at Micheals in the $1 bin and was going to cut it apart--because I have the Preserves cartridge--but decided since the 'note' area was small--I'd use the whole stamp. I put some Accent glaze on top of the peach after coloring it with my colored pencils.





I also got a stamp that says "i think you are..." and then has 4 other small stamps--a pepper that says "hot", a piece of cheese that says "cheesy", and then the other two above! I love them and almost didn't get them!

and some I made over the break

I really like black white and red--made these with my Nellie Snellen Floral punches and my Justrite Stamps

Had to make something with my new Once Upon a Princess cartridge--love that Martha Stewart boarder stamp.

A little Christmas note card I made--so cute--love 3 Birds on Parade.



(glad things are back to normal!) Hubby is back to work and daughter is back to school--just me and Buttercup--my puppy dog--she has a King size bed and lets me and Terry sleep on it with her! LOL!!

Until next time......

Let's play cards!

I found my camera.....

I improved the inside with a smiley face sun (from Everyday paperdoll cart) and cloud (also on everyday paperdoll)--front has bird from 3 Birds on Parade--and puddle from Create a Critter.


Added a cloud to this one too (Everyday paperdoll) Whale from Create a Critter.

Now I'll post the ones I made over Christmas break.

Hugs--you'all

I CAN'T FIND MY CAMERA

But I think it's in my car! I've only got two new cards to post--like them both....but today I'm making two get well cards (for hubby's friends) and starting a special card from my mom's B-day--she will be 90 on January 19th! So I need a really great card for her.

I gave my niece a cricut for Christmas and she is thrilled. She's call and text to thank me. She'll be getting married 9-10-11 at noon, so 9,10,11,12--yeah--she's a planner!

I'll post the pix later--

Hope all had a blessed Christmas and starting the best new year ever!
