Summer with Trendy Trees

My time for cardmaking this summer is limited. So I may not have as many posts as usual. Hope you all are enjoying your summer so far:)

Celebrate!

Hurray! School is out and summer has begun. Time to bring out the ice cream. Have a super summer vacation!

Baby Shower Favors

I used the Stampin' Up! Fancy Favor Die to make the bag.

I cut out the onesies and put a treat inside.
I used the Lil' Paws Embosslit for the bears and put a Hersey's Nugget on it so it can sit up.

And a homemade chocolate added to the cuteness and yumminess of the goody bag:)

Fun with Flowers

Scallop Punch (punch 4 -cut 2 so they will fold in more)

Extra Large Fancy Flower Punch (punch 2 flowers then crinkle them a lot, then peel apart each paper petal into two layers)

I played around with some paper flowers to make these fun cards. The first two won't go through the mail very well, but the last one will. Have some fun with your own paper flowers!

Happy Mother's Day!

To all you mothers out there:

"The greatest job that any mother will ever do will be in nurturing, teaching, lifting, encouraging and rearing her children in righteousness and truth."

President Gordon B. Hinckley

Boy Burp Cloths

I finally got around to making a few baby boy burp cloths. The boy ones are obviously not so cutesy. I think that's why I put them off for awhile:) Next post will be more cutesy.

Felt Flower Hairclips

Just a few more ideas for hairclips or pins:)

Big Shot Flower Hairclips

I love these little flower dies! They make such cute hairclips. I think I cut more material with my Big Shot than paper:)

Simply Scrappin'

These pages were made with the Simply Scrappin' Kits from Stampin' Up!
These kits include card stock, designer series paper, & adhesive embellishments.

Birthday Scrapbook Pages

Just a few fun ideas for birthday pages:)

Cowgirl Scrapbook Page

-Howdy-

I used a bunch of retired stuff on this page (as well as some current stuff).

Spring Scrapbook Pages

I had fun with the

Beatiful Wings Embosslit

on these pages.

Happy Spring!

Big Shot Projects

Another idea using Big Shot Dies with fabric:)

Happy Easter

Bunny Baskets

made with Big Shot and Punches

More Stampin' Up! Burpcloths:)

Most of these have SU! ribbon, stitched felt pieces, or buttons on them. Or they have flowers on them made with the Big Shot. I still plan on making more, including some plain color ones, and then I'll put them into sets and they'll be ready to give away.

Late Night Stampers

I am a part of the Late Nite Stampers group. It's such a fun group with wonderful stampers who inspire so many of us.

Check out the Late Nite Stampers events for convention this year:

Baptism Card for Boy

I made up these quick announcement cards for my son's baptism. Simple, but still cute. I'll have to jazz it up a bit into a suit for Father's Day:)

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Here's my card for St. Patrick's Day:) Not much green on it, but I think the green is what sticks out the most:) Have a happy day!

Masculine Cards

I needed a few more cards that weren't so girly. So, this is what I came up with. It was a good way to use some of my retired Stampin' Up! stuff, too:)
