Super simple card

My mom's birthday is coming up and I made her a simple card because she just ends up tossing them out. So I make them short and sweet.

There are a lot of people out there that do not keep the cards the get, and there a some like me that have just about every card they have ever gotten. I used to store them in a photo box but that got messy. so I punched two holes in the sides os the cards and used rings to hook them together so they are like books! 

Each one is a different celebration! And of course back in the shoe box they went!

I also discovered that I have received the same card for my birthday two years in a row, but at least it was from a different person! haha

Of course I DO NOT do that to handmade cards they are treasured and stored in boxes and celephane bags, and rotated out on display.

Anywho, here is the simple card! I know it is hard to see, but there a tiny stars on the paper! So cute DCWV stack spring fling I believe I used rhinestones in the corners a strip of ribbon and layered a die cut tag with studio G sentiment stamp!

The inside is a stamp I picked up at Tuesday Morning I'm not sure of the set name but if you want to know leave a comment and I will find out!

I colored the Balloons in with my spectrum noir markers, and used the small present stamp fron the set at the end of the Balloon string. 

I think it turned out pretty cute. Despite it's severe simplicity! lol

Hope you like it!

Have a great day!

a few gift bags I made up

These are for a few friends on YT. I wanted to make them something for the holidays! i really hope they like them!

I altered brown lunch bags with some DCWV christmas papers  And made some matching cards to go with them. Tucked securely into the front pocket. I used lace ribbon and trims from my stash and cute erasers for an embellie! So cute!! 

I also added some stickers from my stash.

I think they turned out really cute! 

As you can see they are a little chunky but that is because i already filled them with a few goodies!

these are in reds.

THese are in blues. I wanted to use up as much of the paper as I could so there were not many scraps left.

I won't be sending these out just yet, I want them to get them before christmas but not before thanksgiving! lol So I will ship them out soon.

I had a blast making these, I hope you all like them!

Happy crafting!

Christmas simple card share

Hi everyone!

I have been really busy, working up some holiday cards to hand out to family and friends. I wanted to make some simple ones to hand out last minute if need be. Sometimes we have unexpected visitors for the holidays and I like to keep a few extra gifts on hand just for that reason so I need some cards to go with them. 

These are super simple but pretty. I used scrap papers for the background DCWV chrsitmas stack and cut a strip about 1 inch to go across the center and fussy cut a poinsettia for the center. super quick and fun.

These next ones I decorated the envelopes and added a piece of cardstock matted with a 1 inch strip and candle stamp which I colored up with my spectrum markers. These are great to have on hand for extra little gifts. you can easily slip a gift card in with the card!

These are the same as above but they have a poinsettia sticker in their center. I love how easy these work up, that you can use your scraps and those left over envelopes.

Here are two cards I made for two ladies on YT I layered up some winter papers from DCWV, used some snowflakes from my fiskers punches with bling in the centers and I colored the image with my spectrum noir markers. The stamp is from a magazine I purchase.

I hope you all like them!

Happy crafting!
