Rich Razzleberry Thank You

Happy Saturday!

Earlier this week I shared a thank you card for one of Pierce's teachers who wrote him a recommendation.  Here is the other card I created…

03-22-2014

This card was totally CASE'd from another Pal, Peggy Noe at PrettyPaper Cards, check out her version here. Isn't this a smashing color combination?  I really loved it so I did not want to change much at all. To me there is no greater compliment than to want to copy someone else's design.

I hope you have a GREAT day.

Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge #196

Coming up with masculine cards can be a challenge for me … but not today.

03-20-2014

 I used today's Pal's Paper Arts Sketch Challenge as the inspiration for my masculine birthday card…

I used today's simple design and let the Kaleidoscope DSP be the centerpiece for my card.  This DSP has so much color you don't want to do much else with the card.  [I grew up hearing don't mix patterns so I struggle to that that even on my cards!] The banner flags created using the Banner Framelits in Basic Black, Basic Gray and Whisper White help anchor the card. And of course my favorite finishing touch – Candy Dots in Basic Gray are perfect.

I hope you will play with the Pals this week.  If you need any help uploading your card simply email me!

An Elegant Thank You

Have I mentioned how much I love the Eastern Elegance Designer Series Paper?  Well I LOVE it. The Crushed Curry and Smoky Slate elements are my favorite. So when my son Pierce asked for a couple of thank you cards to send to his teachers, I knew I wanted to use this DSP for one of the cards.

One of my other favorite items in the Annual Catalog is the Million & One stamp set – the font is gorgeous.

The DSP and the sentiment do not need a lot of embellishment.  They are stunning without much added to them.  I love a lot of layers so I simply framed the DSP and the sentiment.  Two  Rhinestone Basic Jewels are the finishing touch. 

Do you have a favorite DSP?  I would love to hear what it is!

Luck of the Irish

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

This card is to the celebrate the Irishman in my life – my husband, John.  His mother and father immigrated here from Ireland in the 50's.  So John and his siblings are the first american generation. I have enjoyed experiencing many Irish traditions during our thirty years together.

I used green and gold as we all know the Leprechauns will bring us gold! You can't tell from the photo but the top green layer – Pear Pizazz was spritzed with Shimmer Mist.  I took a lot of pictures and I just could not capture the glimmer.  Also the sentiment is embossed in gold as well.

I hope your have a great St. Patty's day and I will leave you with this Irish Blessing…

May-your-days
