Harebell round card



Hi
You all know how I love shaped cards. I found this terrific free svg site, Monica's Creative Room and she has some fabulous svgs. This is a shaped card and the flowers are harebells. Sort of like blue bells.
Anyway, I cut it out but the outer round ended up being cut off with the Cricut so I had to go into her pattern on SCAL and erase all the interior cuts and just cut an outline to make the folding card. The cardstock I was using was very flimsy so I have several layers.
The butterfly is a Marianne Design cut 3 times. Actually the 3rd cut is the wax paper that I use to be able to remove all the little pieces from the cut. I thought it was rather pretty so left it.
I was not too happy with this card and it has been on the desk awhile but I figured I better post it. There is a slight flaw in the placement of the bells on the bottom layer but se la vie.It only shows up really well in the photo. lol
The little embellishments were in the stash. I didn't photo the envelope because I forgot but it is lined with a row of harebells.
Have a Blessed day.

Hedgehog and tulips


Hi
No excuse for MIA; just the call of a good book and lazy-itess.
This wee fellow has been sitting almost finished on my desk for awhile now. He was colored with pencil crayons and OMS. Go ahead and click on it and see how I am doing. I am beginning to like coloring with pencils a bit better now that I have taken a lesson from Curt.
The vines are an svg from Penny Duncan Creations and the corner is cut from a CB die with fun foam. Boy what fun that fun foam is!!!! The little ladybug has been languishing in my embellishment drawer for a few years so now here she is.
Rather liking the gatefold cards.
Have a Blessed day.

p.s. I found a great site for svgs and the next card should feature it.

Rabbit, tree, bird, flowers perhaps Easter


Hi
The background is done in Baleek technique on Cuttlebug folder Victoria. The medalion is from the Cricut cart Cindy Lou. Rabbits are mod podged and popped up on pop dots. Added my favorite butterfly from Cely at Creating in Carolina and my flowers are from a small punch called Hydrangea with MS punched foliage. There are small violets around the rabbits and I stuck some stickles on them but the camera distorts them. Awe well what can I say? I am no photographer. lol
Have a Blessed day.

Shamrock card


Hi
This cardstock is some I got from my step daughter and it is lovely and heavy. The name on the edge is Craft n Craftin' by Best Creation Inc. California. She so generously gave me piles and piles of paper and cardstock. Heaven.
I have done it again. This is an incire card and I forgot to write down where I got the svg. So, if anyone recognizes it as their work please let me know and I will give you credit. I added some shamrocks on pop dots and used a bit of glitter on them.
I had oohed and aahed over the new diagonal score board by SU when I realized that I had the diagonal tool on my MS board. So I quickly put it to use to make the envelope. The envelope is 6"x6" and the card is 5"x5" but it will have to do for this time. lol
Easy peasy card and envelope. Haven't found the right verse for the interior yet.
Have a Blessed day.

House Mouse and watercolors


Hi
My blogging friend Gail and my other blogging friend, Curt do such a great job on the House Mouse stamp that I am not sure if I should post this little guy.
This is one of my first watercolors (pansies were the first one in an earlier post)
The poor little guy was not a stamp but stamped onto a paper and then stored in my computer so the dimensions were a "little" off when I printed it out so he is much bigger than he should be. lol
Have a Blessed day.
