Some cards I made.




Halloween Card--this idea came from a Stampin' Up rep named Karen that I met this weekend.


This was a fun card to make. The background paper is Stampin' Up Pumpkin cardstock as well as the pumpkin. The fence is double cut, first with card board and the second with Green SU Cardstock. The hat stamp is new to Stampin' Up this season and was double stamped and then mounted with popdots to add dimension. The face on the pumpkin was stamped with a new set of stamps, also from stampin up. This card took longer than some of the other ones because it was detailed.
















This is a cute little card that Candie showed me how to make. The front is watercolor paper that had the image of a cardinal stamped on it. We then took watercolor pencils and colored the image in and then took a blender pen and blended it all together. This is a small card as you can see from the second image, but it's so cute! The pocket was made by cutting that square in half and then taping the inside. The stamp is a stampin up holiday stamp on top of white paper and red paper. I suggest folding the top part of the teabag enough that it fits inside the card. This was a super fast card that requires little skill. It was also totally a great idea. Thanks Candie!! The inside has a computer printed verse that reads:


On Christmas Day


At Half past three


Make yourself a cup of tea


I'll think of you


You'll think of me


Sitting around the Christmas Tree


Enjoying our lovely cup of tea.


This is a super easy card. We just stamped a picture of a snowman, colored the hat, the nose and the scarf, glued it and put some ribbon through.
