Wetlands

I know life is not all glitter, flowers and butterflies, but in my stamping world it usually is.  I’m drawn to those types of images, so I have to work at making more masculine cards.

This card is adapted from a card on Pinterest by Chiaki Haverstick.  You can find her card here.  I added the ribbon, linen thread and greeting.

We used one of the new Layering Squares Framelits to cut a scrap piece of cardstock to use as a mask and laid it on top of our white card and sponged with Marina Mist and Crumb Cake inside the square.  We stamped the sandpipers with the mask still in place, and then removed it to stamp the sea grass.

Love and Affection

This is from a recent Cards & More class.  In these classes, we make nine cards (3 each of 3 designs) plus a bonus project.

We made three of this card, which was easy, yet beautiful.  I love the simplicity of the embossed design.  Other than a greeting, not much else is needed on this card.  This would be a ten-minute card, perfect for almost any occasion.

Thankfulness Blog Hop

Welcome to the very last Blog Hop for the Mediterranean Incentive Trip Achievers.  This is my first time to participate and I am SO Thankful that I was able to earn this trip (with a whole lot of help from my customers and team members)!

I have SO many things to be thankful for…my husband, my family, my friends, my customers who have become my friends, my downline, my church family, my furbabies.  And that doesn’t even include all the basics like food in my belly, clothes on my back, a warm bed, and a roof over my head.  That’s not the end of the list either, because I am blessed beyond measure, but I’ll stop there for now because you have more blogs to visit!

Our theme for this hop is Thankfulness (in case you haven’t figured that out yet, LOL), so I used the new Paisleys Bundle for my card.  I hope you like it!
