TGIF!!! Just A Note....

I have two cards to share today.
Enjoy!!!




How cute is this card?
I love the colors and the stamp set.
I once again used the PTI background block but used CTMH stamps to fill-in the spots...
This card reminds me so much of Spring --the flowers, the fruits, the allergies... =)
Cardstock: CTMH (White Daisy, Tulip, Chocolate)
Stamps: CTMH (Dream Big-flower and ladybug; Noteworthy - sentiment) PTI (Background Stamp)

Another absolute Favorite of mine!
I made that lined paper from my CTMH Stamp -how cute did that come out?
For the bird cage...I didn't want it to overpower the sentiment so I first inked it and stamped it on a scrap paper and then I stamped it on the cardstock...that's why its so light.

Flower Card

I love this card. I pulled out my old CTMH wooden block stamp set for this one. Stamped it in some ink and then matted it a couple of times with the bamboo and amethyst paper. I used my cutter to emboss some lines onto my card and then sanded them. I love how that turns out. I embossed some bamboo cardstock glued it on and then glued on some paper from my scrapbin and added the stamped image. Finished off the card with a few sparkles from CTMH...
I think that the card and the colors are so pretty...
Enjoy!!
Stamps: CTMH (I think its called Blossom Blocks)

It's A ZOO!!!


Hippos! Elephants! Giraffes! Lions! Oh My!!
I love these little animals and they go perfectly with the animal crackers background. Although you can't tell, all of the animals have liquid glass on them --they are adorable--aren't they? Perfect of baby showers....birthdays.....little boys....
Hope you enjoy them!
I'm trying to get better remembering the name of the stamp sets and the paper I used...I'll have to start jotting it down while I'm making the cards..
