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,
Vickie M.

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!

 



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!!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

One would think you wouldn't get pinched on St. Patrick's if you: 1) have green eyes, and  2) are Irish......... but.........NO........!!!!!  A very good friend of mine said it doesn't count unless you are WEARING green, so......... she pinched me.......OUCH!!!


I participated in a St. Patrick's Day swap on SplitCoastStampers called "Wanna Get Lucky?".  Here's what I made:


1)  Card



2a)  Door Blessing (front)



2b)  Door Blessing (back)



3a)  Tag (front)



3b)  Tag (back)



This is an arrangement I made using a depression glass cup and saucer, vintage postcard images, old floral pick (silver) and old lace.  Isn't she just the sweetest Irish lass!

Hope everyone had a wonderful St. Patrick's Day!!!
