Handmade Card from 10/9/2013 Post with Sentiment

I posted one of my cards a couple of days ago that I forgot to stamp a sentiment on.  Here is a picture of the completed card using a stamp from SU's Thanks for Caring set.

Tomorrow I will share a couple of photos of some Christmas cards I just finished for a craft fair here in Florida.

Hugs,

More Gabrielle Cards to Share

Okay........now for the final three cards I made using BoBunny's Gabrielle Elegance and Unwritten DSP.

 

 

 

On the first card above I stamped the tag using one of the Vintage Vogue stamps by SU.  The bird on the branch and sentiment are from Silhouette Sentiments by SU.

 

 

I die cut the butterfly image from the dsp used as the mat on the second card.  The die cut mats cover the negative space.

 

 

Uh, oh.......looks like I forgot to stamp my sentiment on the oval mat of the third card.  I'll stamp it and post the new photo tomorrow.  I love the little butterfly charm dangling from the bow on this card.  To match the color palette, I colored it with alcohol ink.

 

More cards to post tomorrow!

 



Cards Using BoBunny Gabrielle DSP -- Day 4

I am sooooooooo in love with this Garbielle DSP by BoBunny!  The color combinations are wonderful.

I used paper flowers, tiny pearls, a metal butterfly charm (colored with alcohol inks), butterfly and leaf punches (MS), ribbon and crocheted lace, as well as, Spellbinders dies and various stamps and ink.

These were so much fun to make and each has it's own personality.

 



Tomorrow I will post the final three cards I made with this dsp, then move on to the Christmas cards I am making.

Handmade Cards Day 3 and a Discovery

Gabrielle.........that's her name.........and a sneaky little dickens is she!!!

After going through several cardstock companies, I finally discovered the name of the beautiful paper I used to make these cards.  The next two or three posts will feature the same paper because I went crazy with it and made a set of 15 cards.

The pictures I took of the cards in groups didn't turn out very good so I decided to post them as individuals.



I created these with Gabrielle Elegance and Gabrielle Unwritten by Bo Bunny.  Such pretty paper!!!

Handmade Cards with Flowers and Butterflies

I've been perusing the internet trying to identify the DSP I used on these cards and in the previous post.  No luck so far but I will continue to look in case I stumble across it.

In the meantime, here are some more of the cards I made from it:

Tomorrow I will post more pictures of the cards in this set.  Thanks for stopping by for a look.

World Card Making Day and A Fresh Start

As those in the card making world know, today is World Card Making Day and this was as good a time as any to finally start blogging and posting some of my paper creations.

I have been working on a set of cards made from a couple of sheets of double-sided dsp (that I've had in my stash for a long time), but can't remember what it's called or who it is made by.

Here are three of the fifteen cards I've made so far:

 

 

 

Please forgive my poor photography skills.  I'm trying to figure out why the cards look bowed on the sides when they are straight.  Any suggestions as to how to alleviate that unwanted effect would be appreciated and can can be left in the comments section of this post.

 

I'll post a couple more pictures tomorrow.
