G-G-G-Golfing






This album is intended for my older brother John-the golf enthusiast. He golfs like every day of his life. No matter the weather. As long as the courses are open. The boy went to Texas to go golfing. And yet...the only picture that I have of him golfing is from the newspaper when he won some tournament in Menomonie or something. So...it has yet to be filled due to lack of pictures to fill it with.

Travel Album



I recently went to Chicago with a couple of friends and got this really great idea to make an album for them with g45 paper. It's all distressed and "old-looking" says my friend who couldn't believe when she saw that it was done that I had just made this, and it hadn't been sitting around for years aging in the attic. I've been trying to introduce her to card making but she just won't take to the techniques.

Anyway...the book turned out super cute I think and is really fitting for everything that we did. I <3 G45 for that versatility.
There's a travel section...
A "sights" section...
A shopping section...
And a BEACH section...


See?
Supercute!

Oh! Baby


These cards were made because I found some scraps of baby paper in my stash and I just got  my Cuttlebug and needed to try out the little embossing squares that came with it.
Along with the CB  baby carriage and baby paper scraps, I used Light Spring Green CS, CB embossing Folder "Swiss Dots", and Spellbinders Labels One or Spellbinders Scalloped Squares and scrap ribbon (cream/white).

Debutante

I have no idea where I got any of the things used in this card. It all came out of my stash. But it was fun to make and I don't know what it will be for but the chandelier paper is shimmery!

For my brother

Using Graphic 45 paper (A Perfect Gentleman's Collection), I made this simple card with the intention of giving it to my older brother who is an avid gold enthusiast. It never made it to him even though I got it done before his birthday. I guess I'll save it for next year.

Fab 5 in July

This card was made for the Fab 5 (Plus 1) in July at Picture This when our product theme was Spellbinders Pendants. I used the pendants for the flowers, a CB embossing piece for the champagne glasses from the wedding set, and the CB embossing folder from the Combo Damask Frame for the background. I distressed all of the edges and the champagne glasses.

The second card was for a Make-n-Take in July. I also used the CB Combo Damask Frame for this card. I embossed the red piece of cardstock with the embossing folder from this set. I used Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Ovals, nested, for the middle of the card. The flower on top of the card is the die that was included in the CB Combo set. The blue background paper is My Minds Eye.
