French Manor and Forever Young birthday card

Another birthday card! September explodes with birthdays for me. This was for a friend in my office building. I used French Manor for the dress form and Forever Young for the hat and shoes. The paisley paper was something I had in my stack. I swear I'm going to get better organized so I know what paper I use!

The form, hat and shoes were cut out of The Paper Studio stack. I inked the edges of all of the cuts and then added some little blue flower shaped crystals to the hat and shoes for a little bling and some ribbon to the waist of the form! The Happy Birthday stamp is from Hero Arts.

More Mother's Day Cards

For the past two weeks I've been making Mother's Day cards for friends and family. Here is a sample:







I used the Forever Young cartridge for the mirror, shoes and purse. I then used a metal sheet by QuicKutz for the glass in the mirror. This card was for a friend to give to her sister so I wanted to keep it young feeling. The paper was AC patterned paper "Metropolitan"

A friend needed simple cards to send his sisters. I Cuttlebugged t he paper and used stickers and ribbon for two quick cards.

This card was for a pastor. I had the bird and birdcage from a Tim Hotlz demo at our local Archivers.

I had made a similar card with the silhouette and was asked to make another by someone who had seen the first one. You can find the original further down in my blog. I used the Heritage cartridge and a rose sticker.
