Late Mother's Day Cards

I know that it is kind of late to be showing Mother's Day cards. But here they are any way.

This card I made for Cheryl's Mom. Cheryl is our Pastor's wife . This is a Tri fold card and is so much fun to make. I used a 3d image that Penny made from the 3d group that I belong to. The card stock is from Stampin Up. The DP is from DCWV The Luxury Stack. The flowers were given to me and the ribbon was on a clearance isle at Walmart. The Peel Offs are from the UK.

Michelle Zindorf Class

I just got back from taking Michelle's Beginner's class in Covington. If you ever have the

opportunity to take one of her classes do so. It was so much fun and boy do you learn a lot in the 3 hrs. I'm also going to take her Advanced class in Aug. so I have plenty of time to practice. And I do mean I have to practice.

Here are the three cards we did today. Don't look to close for there are a lot of mistake but you have to begin some where and they say practice makes perfect. Well see!!!!!!

Have a great day.

18 Cards for A Eighteen Year Olds Birthday

I did 18 cards this week for my sister's Pastor's daughter. She is turning 18. Her name is Kaylen and she love Vintage things and the color blue. All of the CS is from Stampin up. Pictures that I have collected from all of the wonderful people that have them on their sites. Such as The Graphics Fairy, The Vintage Moth, Art Freebies, Shabby Chic, Etc. Elements for all over.

I love doing these and I hope you enjoy seeing them.

Have a great day

Just Because I Care

Found a sketch that I had put in my folder that I hadn't tried so I gave it a try. I like they way it turned out. I used Chocolate Chip CS for my base and the card is 5 1/4 x 5 1/4. Ran a piece of 5 x 5 Very Vanilla card stock through my Big Shot using the Argyle texture plate from Stampin Up. Also used Damask texture plate on a piece of CS that I don't know where it came from or what the color really is but it went with what I doing. I used black ink pad to bring out the embossed areas . I stamped the images on to the same CS and Very Vanilla. The stamps are Stampin Ups Carte Postale retired . Ribbon from Michael's and gold pearls from Cindy.

Have a great day

My Boys Are All Together

My two younger sons left Saturday morning for Ca to get there older brother to move him to Ohio. This will be a time that they will never forget. I know that both of the girls are on pins and needles waiting for them here and in Ohio to get back home. This is a big step in Keith's life for he has spent all but 3 years of his life in Ca. 16 yrs in the Bay area and 17 in LA. So moving to Ohio is going to be quite a change but that is where his heart is now. We are so excited to have all of out kids with in 4 hrs of us.

Kurtis and Kalvin ready to leave.

Have a great day
