Latest CAS DT challenge upload
Have you ever made a card for yourself? This is for me! I am pregnant with my first girl. I have 2 boys that I love more than life, but I am beyond excited to be adding my little girl to our family. After 8 years of waiting for my precious little girl, the sentiment "Precious Moments" refers to those wonderful little girl moments I can't wait to share with my baby girl. The thought of playing dress-up with her tiny little feet in my high heels brings tears to my eyes. So congrats to me! Now to the nitty gritty, first, I apologize for the scan. No matter what I did, I couldn't get the color right in a photo. Here is a photo I took of the same card.http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...;ppuser=230060 The CAS DT challenge titled "Fashion Statement" was to use DP in a card, but not too much. My DP is the shoe lining and flower. The shoe is cut using SCAL and a file from SVGcuts.com. I scored a box in the white paper just outside the inner black mat and finished the corners with gems. |

A shabby chic card and NEWS!
I'll start off with the news...I made the semi-finals in the Splitcoast Stampers CAS Design Team search with this card.!
And my shabby chic card to show you...
The flower is cut using the SCAL program on my cricut. The cardboard came from a yogurt box, lol. Edges are distressed using a fork and brown inks. TFL.
Back to school
I have been super-busy getting a back to school gift ready for Michael's sweet new teacher, Mrs Ruth. I made a bunch of teacher themed cards as well as some other cards with various themes and included them in the box pictured below. I also made a few cards for a few close friends that teach at my son's school too.
And the gifts...
The box is cut using this svg file. Wasn't she sweet to share!? I just heard from my friend who teaches at the school and she said Mrs. Ruth LOVED her gift. I'm soooo glad! TFL!

July girl's night
So, a lot of my cards are Clean and Simple, and I think they're pretty self-explanatory. If you have any questions, however, I'd be glad to answer. Just leave me a comment.
A thank you card I made for my Aunt's wedding and shared at girl's night. The waves are one of the slim cb folders, done twice.
A small note card Anita made. Flowers are stamped with versamark.
Adorable Elmo card Mrs. Bowman brought. So clever and if you switch the color to blue, you have Cookie Monster.
Awesome card designed by Mrs. Hoffman. The dewdrop centers add some color and interest. This card was chosen as a CAS favorite!
Check back soon, I still have tons of catching up to do.

Christmas catch-up.
Wow, do I have some catching up to do! Today, I'll post a bunch of Christmas cards I've designed. I've been trying to get ahead on them since the baby is due at the end of December. I think I'll be busy enough without worrying about making Christmas cards.
Snowflakes are inked in Sea Breeze Versa Magic and trimmed with silver glitter pen.
Tree is Cuttlebugged with a swirl folder and trimmed with bling.
I love the red and white! Score lines were done with my MS scoreboard.
The tree is actually silver, a silver mirror paper.
The ornament is a red button layered with a gem.
Thanks for looking and check back soon, I have tons of cards and projects to share!
