Card I Cased!





Casing (or coping) cards from others is the sincerest form of flattery! Here is a card I cased from my dear friend Sue.


You can find her version on her blog: http://suestamping stuff.blogspot.com/


It is a card made from a die cut pattern from a craft store. I used SU Designer Paper and Chunky SU Glitter. I used the scallop punch and pink gingham SU ribbon. The top photo is the card insert (cupcake) pulled out of the cupcake holder.

Sock Monkey Baby Boy Card











Here is a card I made tonight for a new Grandson shower at work. It is SU Sock Monkey set, Bashful Blue and Whisper White Card Stock. It is a Designer Blue paper (can't remember the SU name). I used the two largest Nestibles for the card...fun!

Wedding Center Pieces

Here is what I made for my daughter's wedding center piece for each of the 25 tables since we couldn't use candles. I made 32 of them for the wedding, I am finally done with wedding stuff except curling ribbon will be placed all around the center piece and table. Each place at the table will have a fan and a wedding favor tin with mints in it.

Wedding Items


Here is the Fan we made for my daughter's wedding of the Wedding Party, on the flip side I used a cuttlebug folder , the tins I used the SU Scallop punch, the 1 3/4" round punch, and the Thank you was from a retired SU set called Brides and Babies. I filled the tins with pastel dinner mints (all 200 tins) and made 200 fans! After I got these made I made 32 center pieces, we found the idea in a DIY Wedding book that we found at Joann Fabrics. We had to come up with something besides candles since where she is getting married can' burn candles.
