Wedding Card

My friend asked me to make her a wedding cad. I had seen the sketch from Mojo Monday and I was sure I could use it for my card.  I used an old wedding paper I had and added red hearts.  The red hearts really made a difference.  Enjoy!

Birthday Card

First I put together the idea of using the chalkboard technique from the Paper Players together with the sketch from the Sweet Sunday.  Looking for a color combo I decided to check ColorQ and that is how I created this card.  I have a hard time playing with color challenges, I can never know where to put the colors, so after I finished the card it looked too serious and I needed a happier card.  I changed the scallop circle to  red and I think it looks better.  Which one do you like?  I also made a gift bag to sort of match the card.  Any suggestions on how to coordinate colors?  Enjoy!

Typewriter

In need of a card for my nephew's birthday and the sketch from PPA was perfect again.  The background DP worked with the typewriter, simple but cute.  I like it.  Enjoy!

December Calendar

I wanted to use the calendar for a Christmas card, and this particular one had the dates of the week starting exactly on Sunday, December 1, 2013 just like this year. After trying for a while, I was able to set the month and year in the corresponding box and using the stamp-a-magic stamped the calender. The papers are from a pack I bought super cheap and I like the combination.  Enjoy!

Warm Christmas

ColourQ and Sweet Sunday gave me the inspiration for this cad.  I was able to use some forgotten supplies like flower soft and a never used brick embossing folder.  Enjoy!
