Polka Dot Birthday

I posting two different samples today. The first one is a step up from the 2nd one. The second one we did in class... Due to a time limit. But you can see that the framelits & embossing really added to the finished product!!! Change up the colors & see what you get....although I will say these colors are really COOL!!! Have a great weekend!!!

Nautical Thinking of You

Sometimes it's nice to do things a little "off keelter"! I like how the main picture on this card is crooked. This uses a great combo of blue & yellow. And I have always loved ships for masculine cards. The clouds are done with a stencil I copied from a friend....so I'm not a lot of help on the clouds. But if you live local feel free to come copy it from me.

Punchy Purse

I flipped when I saw this card!!! If you want to make good use of all your punches, this is a good card to make!!!
The curly-cues on the purses are free hand but NOT difficult to do. Very showy card!

More Bareback

Good morning to you all!!! 
If any of you loved the "Bareback" stamp set as much as I do then you'll love this card. It uses varied hues of brown & tan with three brads to set it all off. There are some cards that NEED the torn look and this is one of them. In case you are asking if there is a "right" or "wrong" way to tear .... yes there is depending on the look you are wanting to achieve. If you want the feathery look that I have here, then holding the stamped image in your left hand, tear with your right hand coming towards your body. If you want a crisper edge tear with the left hand coming towards your body. Try it a time or two on some scraps and see how you like it.

Bareback

Hello and I hope you are have a delightful Spring Tuesday today!!! This is another masculine card that we made in class some months back. I enjoy doing masculine cards because they are a challenge AND because there is such a need for them. Most women say that masculine cards are the ones they find the most difficult to do.So as you can see I kinda focus on them. It is so easy to do feminine cards~ just grab some pink or purple paper and some flower stamps and your on you way to gorgeous cards!!!
But I love this card....not to mention that I LOVE LOVE this stamp of the mama and baby.  Hope you enjoy it.

Just My Type

This card has a great "old-timey" look. I used a discontinued stamp set but "Established Elegance" would work fine.

Little Bear

Hello there!!! Isn't this little guy CUTE??? I put him on here big so you can see the details. There is NO STAMPING on this card. He is just all punches and dies. A great way to use your scraps!! The colors don't show up as good as I wish they did here but the ear insides ARE pink. We had such a fun time making these in class!
