I'm working really hard at getting cards done right now. I'm having fun. My kids are also having fun trying to go through my entire scrapbook room while I work. Akk! These three cards are super simple but they were quick and easy to make which is a big 'plus' when you don't have much time. Enjoy.
The inspiration for this second card came from my friend Jamie's blog.
It has been soooo long since I've been able to sit down and create something artsy with paper! I've wanted to but just haven't had a chance. I volunteered to make 10 cards for a church activity next week and so I figured I'd better get busy. I spent hours this week trying to figure out how to start. Having not done it in so long made me really rusty in the creativity department. It was agonizing! This is what I was able to come up with. Hopefully I'll have several others ready this week to share with you too.
I got the cute little cupcake stamp at Michaels in their dollar bins yesterday. :)
This year I searched high and low for a card online that I wanted to 'scraplift' because I didn't feel confident enough in my own ability to come up with one that I thought was cute enough. This is my take on a cute one I found. I hope the sisters like it. I will have various papers for the sisters to use this year but I am going to try to have more of the prep work done than I did last year so that the card is quicker and easier to assemble.
I saw a cute card in one of the old stamping catalogs using big candles and I just fell in love with the idea. I bought a set on ebay and here is my first take on using them.
