Adirondack Chair - Quick Card

Still having issues with my camera (OK...so it's probably user error), but at least you can see the embossing. This was a leftover notecard that was already embossed. TAC used to carry these cards, but they are now discontinued. It's a very simple, but quick card to make.

Boy/Girl Twins Card

I decided to play with my Scor-Pal a bit more. Of course this turned into a nightmare when I tried to scan in the photo. It took me a while, but I was finally able to capture the dry embossing with my camera (which posed an entirely new set of problems...but I won't get into that now...lol). I'm not sure where the cardstock is from and the ribbon came off of a spool that I got at a local ribbon factory (which is now closed....*sniff*).

Baby Shower Bottle Favors & Card

My kids have been pestering me for a while now to do something with the Baby Bottle Pops that have been sitting on my desk. I promised them that I'd let them have them after I made some baby shower party favors so they'll be very happy when they see I've completed my project. I got the bottles at the checkout line in the supermarket, but you can also buy them by the case at BJ's Wholesale.

St. Patrick's Day Irish Bunny

Here's a card I made last year. The background stamps (Plaid Background & Backgrounders) have been discontinued, but the little bunny is still available from The Angel Company. I'm posting it to remind you that you don't need St. Patrick's Day or Irish themed stamps to make cards for St. Patrick's Day. Just choose your favorite set and make it green!

Piano Pig Birthday

I was going through my website, www.createwithlove.com and removing some of the images from the gallery that were made with discontinued stamp sets and thought I'd move this card here. There's something about this pig that just makes me smile so I thought I'd share it with you.

5-Minute Gatefold Cow Card

Here's a quick card using TAC's Brighten My Day Designer paper collection. It also features this fun cow from The 2008 Spring Supplement. It's my first card, a gatefold, using the ScorPal. I think I will be getting lots of use from this new tool!

Hemingway Butterfly Prayer Box

Last year my husband brought me about six wooden cigar boxes that he got from a friend. I've been saving them for a rainy day and it's been very rainy here this week! I covered the cigar box with The Angel Company's Hemingway paper collection by using a decoupage glue. I stamped some butterflies and colored them with PrismaColor pencils to coordinate with the paper. The letters were cut with my CraftRobo out of some thin chipboard (another stash that I've been hoarding) and colored with a brown marker. You can't tell in the photo, but I used a glitter pen on the flower bursts and some metallic chalk on the butterfly wings just to give it a bit of shimmer. This box was created to house the prayer requests that our family gets. It will be in our dining room so we will all have access to the box for prayer time.

Supplies:
Cigar Box

Pearlescent Chalk Kit

Square Ladybug 2-Minute Notecard

This is a very quick and easy card to make! At first glance The Angel Company's Circle Sampler set doesn't look like much, but it's great for window cards like these. It gives some nice detail around the opening.

Love Doodles Valentine Card

New Year Singing Fish Card

Every time I see this little fish it makes me smile! This isn't a traditional New Year card, but it is FUN. I had to crop the card a bit so you can see the animation, but most of it is there.
