Sunburst card

Good morning all. I tried my first Sunburst card last night. Could be addicting. I also made labels for my canisters. I was a little busy.

I used a tutorial from you tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qU9b2aIy2-M. I added a quilled flower to the center.

Have a wonderful and blessed Sunday.

Anniversary card

Good Morning. Today's post is an anniversary card. I was blog hopping yesterday and seen the technique for the scratch off from Martha Stewart.

Stick strips of clear packing tape to the shiny side of freezer paper.
Mix two parts metallic paint with one part liquid dishwashing soap.
Apply three or more light coats of paint mixture to the packing tape with a foam brush, letting dry between coats, until the color is opaque. Let dry completely, overnight if necessary.

I did not have the clear packing tape so I cut a piece of clear acetate and used that.

I added the penny so he would have the convenience to scratch off.

Thanks for visiting my blog and have a safe and blessed day.

Pop up Flower Get Well card

Good morning all. Praying for my friends in the south to stay safe and warm. A lot of snow and ice in Georgia and surrounding areas.

Today's card came from a tutorial at http://qbeesquest.blogspot.com/2011/03/flower-box-pop-up-card.html, Hers looks so much better than mine but I wanted to try it. Wonderful tutorial.

I want to thank everyone for the beautiful comments over the past few days.

Carton Wallet

I found this carton wallet (http://spoonful.com/crafts/carton-wallet) while blogging today. It was made from a recycled juice carton. I did not have one so I made one from cardstock.

First I used a 16 oz water bottle and cut the top off including lid.

I downloaded the pdf from from the site (http://spoonful.com/crafts/carton-wallet) and converted to svg. I then used Silhouette to combine the file to fit on a 12x12 piece of thick cardstock. (Darice Premium cardstock).

I was eating chocolate kisses at the time and decided to decorate for valentines and used the Kisses paper from the candy instead of washy tape.

Hope you enjoy.

College Bound

Yesterdays project was a popout card. I decided to do a college bound card to get ready for graduations coming up.

I found this on Pinterest and decided I wanted to try it. The original post is HERE for those who do not have a Silhouette or want to cut by hand. The measurements are in cm and I am not good with that so I made it to fit an A9 envolope (Large card envelope) so I could put the detail I wanted. The Silhouette file down is at the bottom of the post. I used a bunch of screenshots from Silhouette studio library and made them print and cut so the card would not be bulky inside.

Have a good day and God Bless.

Gazebo Card

Good morning all. Here is my card for the day. It is a copy of a pattern I found on https://www.card-making-downloads.com/ and really liked. I wanted a file that I could use instead of butterflies. I created in my Silhouette software. It is not perfect but I still like it for something different.

Have a wonderful day and God Bless.

The tutorial from Card-makingdownloads is here. You will have to add to cart and maybe signup. They have a lot of good free items. You can also get the decoupage pages to match the tutorial. I downloaded the blossums and butterflies for free.
