Silhouette Suits

Have I mentioned lately how much I love my silhouette machine.  I made this card for a friend who lost 45 pounds dieting and for exercise swimming.  I'm so proud of her I wanted to make a special card and was looking for some inspiration and found it with my silhouette.  I just thought these suits were so cute hanging on the line I had to use them.  I also had to add my latest obsession, sequins!

Hope

Well since this is Breast Cancer Awareness month and I just got my new stamp from Amuse I am going to post a card I lifted.  I actually lifted it from Linda over at www.Luckydogstamper.com
Her card is very cute and I could not resist a lift.  She also has a lot of other amazing cards using the same stamp set so go check it out.  And remember that yearly mammograms save lives - it did mine.

Happy Haunting

Every year I have a costume party and this is my invite card for this year.  Usually I but a new stamp set but this year I used what I have.  Can you imagine that?  I did have to buy some new paper.  Just love the hexagons. 

i pick you

This card is a lift from a card I saw in an old Cards magazine. Of course they used a butterfly!  I just love washi tape and the polaroid's are fun too. Any time I can use my silhouette it makes me happy.  Although, when I make a card without stamping anything I feel like I'm cheating.  But I do think this turned out cute.

Go Nuts

Oh how I love coordinating dies and stamps.  I just couldn't resist this little squirrel from Papertrey Ink.  He is so stinking cute.  I also lifted the design from them.  It turned out so cute I'm going to make some more and put them in the mail! Happy October everyone. 

Also since today is the first day of October all you hear about is breast cancer awareness month.  Maybe now that I have experienced it myself I feel like I can't look anywhere without a pink ribbon staring me in the face.  I am just not a pink gal but anyway Amuse Studio is giving away a free breast cancer stamp (3$ for shipping) They also have a matching die that you know I will be purchasing.  If you haven't seen Amuse I have a friend who is a rep. and you can check out her blog and all her cute cards at www.totogal62.blogspot.com

Corny

Today I just had to post this Corny card.  I got this new stamp set from Lawn Fawn and I just love it.  It makes me laugh and think about how goofy you can be living in Iowa. I'm putting a big old corn cob on your card and thinking it's cute, but I do. There are more images in the set that I am committed to using soon.  I also had to repost the second card.  It was so plain I just had to do something so I added some hand stitching and a little distress ink around the edges.  Now it's ready to send and made me happy. 

Fabric

I made this card for a fun Paper Trey Ink challenge to use fabric with die cuts.  This is a very simple plain card but it was fun to use my burlap and make a quick card for fall. I used heat and bond to attach the leaf to the card with my ribbon iron.  It's great to have another use for it!
