That time of the year again


Your kids have more than one teacher right? Or maybe you have more than one kid. Either way, you should be prepared to give them your thanks with another homemade card. All that's in this card is paper from MME and an Amuse stamp + an arrow brad and a tag cut out of Spellbinder's Fancy Tags. But My Minds's Eye does most of the word for you, with coordinating paper and die cuts all you have to do is glue to supplies together.
Find it all at PICTURE THIS! as well as other lines like We R Memory Keepers who have a TON of school papers, die cuts, and embellishments to make creating a card super easy to do when you are lacking in time.

That time of the year

That's right. It's that time of year again, when school is ending and you have to be the main caregiver for your children again. :/ Dang! So to show the teachers how much you appreciate the fact that they watch over your kids 8 hours a days most of the year, why not give them a homemade card?

A little House Mouse, a little LilyBee, a little Amuse and some school paper for the background. Color it all in and add some ribbon and you've got yourself a card fit for a teacher! Let them enjoy!

Cheeky Tag

All of the paper on this tag in Graphic 45, the tickets and peacock feathers are from one of their newest collections: Curtain Call. The flowers are from a Tim Holtz/Sizzix Die and I distressed the edges with black ink. Tag is Fancy tags distressed with TH "Vintage Photo". "Cheeky Beauty" is the Greeting Farm Stamp that I used for this and she's colored with a variety of Copics.

I <3 this card! It turned out sooo cute. Very easy too. Using "Chloe-mini floral" from 3 Bugs in a Rug as the background and the front and backside of "showers" just stamp your girl onto the backside rectangle as well as some "little weeds" from Judith with "Shabby Shutter" ink and adhere them down to the background. With some fancy tags from Spellbinders and TH "Victorian Velvet" ink to both distress and stamp "hello" you make the tag. Just get out your CB Quilled Daisy and that MME "Fine & Dandy "Adorned"" paper and rhinestones set and you're set to make the card with only floral ribbon to add.

Springtime

 Both of these cards were made with Three Bugs in a Rug's "April Showers" line: "gathering" and "showers". I also used Spellbinders Large Standard Circles and Scalloped Circles and yellow grosgrain ribbon.


 Card #1:4x5.25" background is Cloud9Design "Royal Dots-Pink". The 3.75x5" background is "gathering". I stamped congrats on a standard circle cut from "white luster" CS distressed it with "Rose Bud" Memento ink. The scalloped circle is cut out from the back of "showers".
Card #2: the background is the back of "showers". The scalloped strip on the bottom is the back of "gathering" and is punched with an EK Success Punch. The scalloped circles are cut from"light groovy grape" CS. The inside of the larger circle is cut from "gathering". The bird feet are stamped across the card with a Judith stub.

Easter

I know that it's a  little late for Easter cards, but I just put these on my computer and I wanted to show them off. Both of the cards were made using MME's "Fine & Dandy" paper called "Adorned" and Three Bugs in a Rug's "April Showers" paper called "gathering" as well as "showers" and another line of theirs called "Little chick" with paper called "chicken little".


Card #1: the background is the "chicken little" paper. The strip is using "Mango" CS and the "Adorned" paper. A strip of yellow grosgrain ribbon is taped across the bottom of the card. I cut out an oval using Spellbinders and distressed the edges with TH "Spiced Marmalade" then stamped "happy spring" with one of the dollar stamps from Picture This. The flower is made with the CB Quilled Daisy using the mango and adorned paper again.
Card #2: the background is the "chicken little" paper with a strip of the "adorned" paper. The green strip on the bottom is the back of "gathering" and is punched with an EK Success border punch. I cut the mount for "Happy Easter" out of "showers" using Spellbinders Labels 1. All of the eggs were cut out of white CS using Spellbinders Ovals and then distressed with "Spiced Marmalade" TH Ink. I stamped the bird feet with a large Judith Stub. The chicks were cut out of the "chicken little" paper
