CP Sketch # 8 "take 2"

Here is my CP sketch creation for this week. I had made a different one and then decided it just wasn't what I was trying to do, so I went back and made this...



The sketch really wasn't too difficult to work with, it just took a little longer to make all the elements work together ;^)

Here's the link to the first card I made:

CP Sketch # 8 "take 1"

I made this for CP sketch #8 and then realized, "I should have..." so I made the next one...
;^)

I have made... Cards - 3

More SU! card party creations. However, these ones I freestyled instaed of following the pattern we were given.

The background on this one is tone-on-tone

and haphazardly stamped "Sweet" above the ribbon.

This one says "One in a Buzzillion"


Twin cards made for twins...
although I can't remember why I didn't give them away...
"So Very: sweet, cute, loved"

"Like No Udder"

I have made... Cards - 2

The next section in my card box holds... these fun ones ;^)

If I remember correctly this one was made at a Relief Society Super Craft Saturday... a few years ago and I don't know where any of the supplies came from.

These two are from another SU! card party in AZ
"Delight in Life"

And this last one was made with paper from Colorbok last weekend - after the spill fiasco while making the CP Sketch#7

Just Perfect Memories

Cards for Sisters

I have a mail route for Visiting Teaching and I made these mini "postcards" (they measure 3 1/2 x 4 inches) to put in with the March message... I absolutely love this color!

The brads and ribbon are from Michael's.

The stamps, ink, and colored cardstock are SU!
The white cardstock is from Sam's Club ;^)

And the punch is from C.M.

A closer view

I made 3 of these...

This was one of a kind.

And there were 3 of these.

I have been having a lot of fun making cards lately... maybe a little too much fun with brads though - I split my finger open doing them all! Ouch!!! ;^)

I have made...Cards ;^)

I pulled out my card box and took a bunch of pictures to show you some of the older cards I have made, I'll tell you where they came from in the post they show up in... I had more left in there than I thought so I'll spread the posts out a bit ;^)

The first "section" is Thank You cards in various forms and this is one area that is almost empty... I guess it's time to make more.

These 3 card fronts were all made at a SU! Card Party that a friend of mine in AZ used to have once a month. Which means that I haven't actually attached them to their cards yet, and everything we used to make them is SU! product.

So Very... Much Appreciated

Thank You x 4

Thanks So Much

Card Patterns Sketch # 7

This week I am not very happy with the card I made. I was making others to pick "the best one." However, the others went too far away from the sketch and then the card making session was halted by a rather unfortunate accident that wasn't very paper friendly - in the form of a child's drink going everywhere and getting on/into everything I had on the table... OOPS.
So since this is the first one I made and the only one true to the sketch, here is what we have for this week:

The acrylic jewels are by The Beadery, and all of the paper (even the card itself) came from a Punch-Out Pack: Jewel by Colorbok that probably came from Joann's - I'm not sure on that because it was a Christmas present a couple of years ago...
Anyway, I wanted to see what I could do using only the paper, some cutters - no shape makers ;^), and adhesive, and I cheated and used the jewels. I think I may try this one again so get a card I like better... Happy Card-Making!
And better luck to me for next week ;^)

Card Patterns Sketch # 6

This week I couldn't decide what to do with my card! So I ended up making a pair instead and then I couldn't pick my favorite so I'll show you both. ;^)

Card # 1 and a close up.

Card # 2

I used grosgrain ribbon & card stock in SU! Real Red, and a Designer Series paper (DSP) in chocolate chip. The fancy squares and circle are from Creative Memories shape makers and the rest is from various scrapbook stores. The staple on the first card says "Sweet" and the "Life's a Ball" is a rub on.

This is a good way to get ideas for card projects, so if you haven't checked it out head on over and see the other great ideas! ;^)

More March Birthday Cards

Card # 1 took a bit of time because of all the circles, but I like how it turned out.

For the circles I used a CM (Creative Memories) Mini Circle maker/punch. The card itself is white cardstock. And for the rest... tan cardstock, and SU! (Stampin Up!) Old Olive paper and Ink. The stamps are from Inkadinkado #97716 and can be found at Michael's.

Card # 2 was quick and easy!

For the rectangles on top I used a CM Mini Square maker/punch, and cut it in half. Tan cardstock for the card and greeting. SU! Brilliant Blue paper and DS patterned paper that may or may not be retired ( I've had it for over a year at least and I haven't checked to see if it's still there.) And once again, the stamp is from Michael's.

>funny note on that, my 5 year old thinks we're going to play at a friend's house when I say we're going to "Michael's" (which we don't do very often)- it's cute<

Card Patterns Sketch # 5

We have a lot of March birthdays in my family, so here is another birthday card... purple, purple, purple!

Christmas 2008

I didn't get pictures of all the different cards I sent out, but this is one...

Creativity is not limited to cards in my house... these cookies are long gone!
Although, it isn't too hard to use a cookie press and shake some sprinkles... ;^)

The Paper on this card is Stampin' Up! , the stamps are not... they were a gift so I don't know exactly where they're from.

An Ocean Wave...

This one got help from my 5 year old and therefore really did not turn out like I wanted it to, but that's just how it goes sometimes!


The circles are a shapemaker from Creative Memories, I can't remember where the paper came from and the rest is half a piece of white cardstock and black pen... I am horrible at describing these aren't I?!? ;^)

February S.I.M. cards

Last night I finished the February "Stamps in the Mail" card sketches from Marie. They were easy! Sometimes making cards stresses me out, but these didn't and that was great!
I don't have the list of where the sketches came from, but I think she posted hers on her blog... so if you want, hit my sidebar and go check out hers too.

Take 2

I really liked the other card like this one, so I decided to make another one...
and I can't tell which one I like better! ;^)

Halloween 2008

I had a lot of fun with these. I used some Stampin' Up! Designer paper and had a blast! I came up with the designs myself... I used a basic straight edge, some shapemakers from Creative Memories, and some adhesive. Easy and fun.

I'll get better at describing what I used to make them on newer ones... hopefully ;^)

Card Patterns Sketch #4

Here's my card made from the sketch this week over at http://cardpatterns.blogspot.com/

Posting

Interesting... I had scheduled a post of my favorite cards from Halloween and it won't publish no matter what I try, so I'll change the scheduled time and hope you'll get to see it tomorrow.

;^)
