Teacher Appreciation

Hi There,

Isn't the frame above absolutely adorable?!? I made it last minute per a co-worker's request and her son personalized the frame for Ms. Choi with his own writing =) It's been awhile since I made frames but am very pleased of how this one came out.  I used Hero Arts stamps that you can find at Michael's to embellish the rest of the frame with Teacher Anya.  Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a nice 4th of July weekend!

Cheeky Beach

Hi Everyone,

It's summertime, and I couldn't think of a better time to use TGF Cheeky Beach for my next card. This card is fun, simple, and breezy-like.

Have Fun In The Sun!

Graduation Time!!!

Hey There!

Among the many celebrations we take pride in...Graduation is one of them that comes every year notably in JUNE!!! I have the card made above for a co-worker that got his MBA at Cal Poly.  It was done late so the pressure got me some creative juices flowing...LOL  I wrote 2011 and MBA on each sash of his gown to make it more personalized.  It's a lil fuzzy but you can see it enough to figure it out...hehe.  Hope you finish the remainder of the week Great!

For My Special Guy

Hello Fellow Crafters,

I know that Father's Day just passed, and it got me thinking about my brother, so I thought I'd make him a card as well. Even though he is not a father, he's still my special little guy. So I made him this card using the TGF Oh Boy Ian. This image looks like my little brother actually. Enjoy!

Happy Father's Day

Hello Everyone,

Father's Day is just around the corner, so I decided to take a little break from the Cheeky Cherry Collection, and made these Father's Day Cards for the hero in my life, my dad.  I decided to make more than one, so I could send one to my uncle in Canada and one to my uncle in Malaysia. It's been a family tradition for my brother and I to always hand make our cards to our parents. My brother's card is also included here. My brother and I used TGF Hello Ian, Rock the Farm set, Amazing Duo set, and the Mom and Dad set. Thank you all for visiting!

This card was made by my brother, using Hello Ian Stamp.

I made this card from the Rock The Farm Stamp set.

For this card, I used the Mom & Dad stamp set.

At last, my favorite, using the Amazing Duo set. This is the card I picked to send to my dad, my hero.

To all the great dads, uncles, and grandpa's, Happy Father's Day!

Morning Everyone!

I got creative with this card I have to share from a friend's card that was made a while back.  What was funny was I used the exact image without even realizing as she did from her card layout that I used in my card.  I got to say...I was pretty playful with this card and am happy of how it came out.  Hope you like it and thanks for stopping by =)

Cheeky Howdy

Howdy!

I was feeling a little more creative today and decided to make this card a little more unique. It's a foldout card, where it can sit like an easel card. I had so much fun creating this card. I used two different kinds of card stock for the top and bottom of the card and added a bow for dimension. The stamp is from the TGF Cheeky Cherry collection. This is Cheeky Howdy.

This is what the card looks like when closed.

 

This is me showing how the card opens.

At last, this is what the card looks like when sitting up like an easel.

Sympathy Card

 

Hi Everyone!

I have a sympathy card to share.  There has been a lot of people out there who has loved ones in their lives leave this world and what better way to share your sympathy than a card that says it all!  I had the help of Leanne with her stamp verbiage and spellbinder that is growing on me...;) For those of you who don't know Leanne she is one of the talented design team on The Greeting Farm's Site =)  I used the Miss Anya Love Set for this card and embossed it with a stampin up plate.  Coloring Black was not as bad as I thought.  Crafting is always fun because you always get to learn something new but not necessarily good on the pocket of course...lol Thanks for stopping by!
