Winter Themed Holiday Thank you Card


I know Spring is here...but I just wanted to share with you my official "thank you" notes for this past winter season. They were a snap to make with my friendly cuttlebug machine and I whipped out a stack super fast back in December! On a select few (including this sample) I even went the extra step to really make them sparkle, by adding stickles to the cuttlebugged piece of c/s. This design is so universal that these cards could be used as birthday, thank you, Christmas, New Year, Get Well, Thinking of you etc. just by changing the sentiment. Enjoy!

Stamps: SU Merry & Bright
Sentiment: Computer generated
C/S: Bashful Blue, White
Ink: Basic Black

Happy St. Patrick's Day


I am catching up on my posts...here are my St. Patrick's Day cards for this year. I needed to keep it fairly simple as I was short on time (they didn't go out until Monday, the 17th)!


Recipe

C/S: Stampin' Up! Garden Green, White
Stamp: High Hopes
Sentiment: Stampin' Up!
Accessories: Wild Wasabi Double Stitched Ribbon, White Gel Pen, Sponge, Circle Punch, Ticket Corner Punch, Stampin Write Markers, Cuttlebug Swiss Dots Embossing Folder

Happy Easter!


This is my Easter card for 2008. I just got them finished and into the mail on Saturday (better late than never!)


Here's the recipe:

C/S: Lavender Lace from Stampin' Up!
Decorative Paper: cute plaid that I picked up at Joann's and have been hoarding.
Stamps: High Hopes
Sentiment: computer generated
Accessories: SU scallop punch, Berwick trim
Technique: I colored in the bunnies with various markers and then used some chalk to get rid of the "streaks"...you can still see them though. I was testing out what shade to make the bunny and am not sure which one I like best.
