Quarterback Ian

Hello Again Fellow Crafters,
As some of you may know, Football season is upon us, and I thought what a better way to get into the spirit of football, than to make a card. I used TGF Quarterback Ian for this card. The footballs are foam footballs that give a 3d effect.

I hope you all enjoy it!

 This looks exactly like the exact picture, but I promise you it isn't.

HG-SING

Hi There Everyone!


Thanks for stopping by the Candy Blog and leaving some kind words! Keep it coming as we have 2 more weeks.  I will post up the candy prize soon enough...jst be patient with us since we are vamping up for the show in November!

I have a quick share today...used HG-Sing for my birthday card as I have not yet inked her since I got my hands on it.  Used pretty semi-glittery paper that says happy birthday on the white banners to complete my card as a pink and blue color combo.  I finally was able to use my buttons and twine on my card so gave myself a pat in the back for being able to use it =)  Hope you like what you see!



I used the sentiment from a stampin up hot air ballon set =D

Geisha Birthday

Hello,

A quick share today of a geisha card I made.  I used the pagoda cricut cartridge that a friend lent me.  Loved how it turned out with this card.  I also used hero arts cherry blossoms to stamp on the umbrella to give it some definition =) Hope you enjoy!

A Hoppy and Snappy Birthday!

Good Morning!

Today I have two cards to share.  I has been so long since I have used this Unfrogetable Set from stampin up!  This happened to be one of my very first set of stamps that I fell in love with.  Not only that but it is my first time playing around with a step card.  It was pretty fun and simple that everyone should try it!  My department in general is pretty crafty and decided to ask me to make a card for a great co-worker of mine which I was totally honored and happy to =D  She deserves the prettiest and most sophisticated card since she herself makes amazing cards for everyone so it is only fair...
As you can see there's a lil turtle hanging out on the mushrooms only because it's the only one I had at the request of the card giver...lol It happened to be the turtle stamp the birthday girl gave me from her Hawaii Trip since she loves turtles besides crafting cards...
Notice the grass how demensional it is??? I suggest you jst tear the top for the grass edges if you are going to make grass since it was so time consuming cutting it free hand...lol


Next up...I made my own birthday card for the same co-worker.  Since she's from the islands it was perfect to use surfer anya! I was glad all the elements came together on this and I got to use my new things that have been in hiding for quite sometime...LOL  I had so much fun with the step card that I have done it again here.  If you are interested cut out a 5.5x10.5 paper and score it as follows: 1.25,2.5,4.25,6,8.25.  Hope that keeps you busy and crafty for the next couple of weeks!


Here is a top view of the card

 Take Cares!
