With Love 2013 r

The paper I used is from A Mused studio and I added a red heart doily. I know this is cards for men but I’m pretty sure this would work for a guys card. Their was all kinds of hearts around the image so I thought I would add some gem hearts but I do think it is a little much but Emma my granddaughter will love it anything that sparkles. 

With Love 2013 l

Sorry the sentiment is a digi and I do not know where I got it from.

With Love 2013 f

Added some Liquid Applique (white) to the ice cream to try and give a whip cream look on it.

Christmas Tree

Christmas trees 2013

As you can see I made a Christmas card this time. A friend and I made a New Year resolutions that we would try and get one Christmas card done each month this year so this is my second one. This card I made for The Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge and the twist for this week is to make a card that has SOMETHING WITH WHEELS. My image is from Teddy Bo and it has a number #148.  

Christmas trees 2013 r

This card is pretty simple, nothing really fancy. The papers is from some of the Christmas scraps. I did do some stitching on the card and distressed the edges. The Christmas trees is some ribbon I had left over and added some red metal dots to each of the corners.

Christmas trees 2013 l

Also added a red ribbon and made a bow.

Christmas trees 2013 i

On the inside memory box die called delicate vine and the corners are from dies from SCACD. I did not add any sentiment, thought I would wait tell it is closer to Christmas before I would add something but I could stamp something or write a message.
