Stair-step Card Featuring Magnolia Tilda...

Hi Creative friends...Oh, I just love this card so much...I am pleased with how the colors came together to make such a bright card.  I have made a few Side-step card but this is my first attempt on a Stair-step card.  Put a lot of work on this one including sewing,  Cricut die-cutting, layering Prima flowers, glitter accents, coloring Tilda with markers and Gamsol, glaze accents on the image and lots of inking.  But at the end, I am satisfied with the outcome and I can say that this is one of my finest creation...Thanking the Lord Jesus for creativity...This card is also entered on this challenge:

I just love my Bic and Sharpie markers as they make Tilda as bright as she can be.  Face colored with Gamsol and Butterfly is glazed...


THINKING OF YOU STAIR-STEP TILDA CARD (HANDMADE ENVELOPE):
I had to make a .5-inch thick envelope to accommodate the thickness of the card.

This is truly one of my favorite creations...It is so fun, bright and truly brings a smile to my face...I sure hope I can create more of this type of cards in the next few days...Really love it! 

Heavenly Father, I thank you for the talent, for the opportunity to create and do what I love to do.  In the midst of a busy schedule, let me be reminded that my time is Yours and that You always wanted me to fellowship with you first and foremost...Thank You for loving me the way You do and for expressing each day how special I am in your sight!  I love you, Jesus!

Yummy Pink, Birthday Cupcake Card...

Oh what a sweet image and sentiment I used here from Hampton Art.  I got the stamp from the Dollar rubber stamps section at Michael's and fell in love with it.  I thought it was priced good at a buck.  But after I paid, I realized that this stamp cost a lot more at 5 bucks and was misplaced with the Dollar stamps.  I would normally return the merchandise but I just loved the image so, I kept it....LOL  I am so glad I did because this card will not be as cute without this image...With my Cuttlebug, Nesties, MS Border Punch, ribbon and wet embossing, everything came out perfect.  Used my Sakura Glaze Pen for the sprinkles on the cupcake and petals of the flowers.  Simple yet oh, so cute!

Beautiful Laced-Wedding Congrats Card...


This is my first time to make a Wedding Congrats Card and I am very pleased with the result.  Finally, I was able to incorporate a lace in my card. The very cute image is from American Art Stamp.  I think it's hilarious...love it!  The card measures 5 X 7 inches and with the help of my Cuttlebug, Nestabilities dies,  Bride flowers, Martha Stewart leaf punch  and dew drops, it sure elevated this card into a whole new level...Totally pleased with the result.

I had to make an envelope for this card since it's quite thick from all the embellishements.  Over-all, everything worked well with this card.  I think it's a knock-out...Thanking the Lord for the strength to create when I can..

Grow Lovely Butterfly Card...

I may not incorporate butterflies in my projects all the time, but I truly love buying butterfly images...I think this time, it really added beauty to this card...I just love how the colors complimented each other and made this creation so elegant.  The Butterfly image is from Hampton Art and the sentiment is from Studio G.  With some inking, embossing and great ribbon, this card is a winner.
