I just wanted to stop in real quick to show you a tag/card I made for our granddaughter. Today is her birthday. I needed a tag for her present but I didn't want to make it too bulky since I had to mail it. I decided since it was big enough that I would also make it a card also. I also made it so she could hang it if she liked. It is pretty self explanatory and all products are PTI except for the pattern paper which I had in my stash. 
Happy Friday!! I ws out shopping a few days ago and say the color combination of pink, grey, black and white. I knew I wanted to do something with it but wasn't quite sure just yet, so I sat on it. Then I found out the my sister and her granddaughter both were diagnosed with cancer (two different kinds). So I decided I needed to make them a card. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do then I saw the Make It Monday on the Papertrey Ink blog and decided to do something with it. I liked the idea of the dry brushing and did it on the edges for some softness.
Hello! I have been so bad in keeping up with my blog but life has just taken over and crafting hasn't been much of a priority. Last week was one of my BIL's birthday. My husband's family isn't much on sending out cards to each other so I was certainly surprised when he asked if I would make his brother a card. I think it was more to get me back into crafting so he was actually helping me out. This is the card I came up with. I used the Road Trip pattern paper from Papertrey Ink. Since he lives in New York and we live in California I thought it fit. It is pretty explanatory. All products are from Papertrey Ink except for the die I used for the strip borders. I do need to do more because I find it to be very relaxing. I also need to get around to everyone's blog that I have been neglecting. I haven't forgot about you I just have had others things going on and haven't spent much time in the crafting world.
Wow!! I can't believe that I am posting two days in a row. My youngest daughter and her husband celebrated their anniversary yesterday and this is the card I made for them. Since they were just here I should have had a card made and ready to give them but I am one that seems to put things off with lots of excuses so I didn't get it done and had to mail it to them. Oh, well they will have something to open in the mail. But of course it won't arrive in time. It is a very simple card. She carried Lilies in her bouguet and these were a few flowers that I had left over from the cake I made for them. It took me a few years but found them when I was going through my cake decorating supplies and decided to use them on this card. I hope they like it.
This is a very simple card but I like how it turned out. All products used are Papertrey Ink. Ocean Tides CS and Swiss Dot Satin Ribbon, Vellum, Ocean Tides ink, versamark. BB:Petal Power and Fillable Frames #2 stamp sets, Edgers#2 die.
