Gingerbead gift card holder
Last night my friend Beverly and I made two dozen gift card holders for our upcoming boutique. Here’s one of the gingerbread ones …on the left is a sample of the inside.. no stamps just paper and the punched man as a holder for the top flap, a word punch inside to hold the gift card. I entered this in cupcake inspirations challenge.
HB Me
Its my blogaversary and my birthday so this first card is my colors pink and green and of course include frogs! No stampin’ just punches and cuttlebug folders for the swirls and background happy birthday paper… the sketch is Tuesday Morning Sketches… last year in November I was a guest designer.
Wrap like an Egyptian
This is a card for the Case Study challenge both the Pink cat studio mummy dog and the frame are cut with spellbinders nesties.
and here is the story. The week before Halloween I decided that wrapping my chihuahuas like mummies would be great costumes… so me and mom bought some gauze bandage and wrapped the dogs. You can see they didn’t look like mummies they looked like dogs that just had some kind of accident and were bandaged, the card is a picture of the first wrapping i included a picture of me and A’lan wrapping after the sox and you can see the Halloween cards I finally posted… the secret is my son suggested putting a white sweater(sox with holes) first then wrap them… don’t they look much better?. note Cielo is in this card cause she was at her house and i didn’t have her the day before Halloween to rewrap. pictures of the wrapping follow.
Below is Bella wrapped and Sisi helping unwrap,
Farm frog
The Penny Black Saturday challenge is on the farm… don’t have very many PB farm stamps . actually this is the only one(don’t the chickens seem very farmy)? I used spellbinder to cut the frame, paper pieced the Penny Black stamped image colored with pen and water color and put images on a DCWV patterned card. Farm animals and frogs welcome to the farm.
