4/30 {Happy Birthday MOM}

Here is a card I made for my MOM who is celebrating a birthday today! Unfortunately, I can't celebrate with her tonight because I've come down with a double ear infection and a sinus infection. Apparently, my family doesn't want to catch what I have and suggested I stay away. I guess I won't take it personally.

I made this card using the following supplies:

the parenthesis and hb: Thickers by American Crafts
Stamps: Simple Blossoms and Happy Birthday both Close To My Heart
Paper & Ink: Honey, black and white- all CTMH

Happy Birthday mom! Love You!

4/22 {paisley hello}

Made this card with the More To Adore patterned paper from Close To My Heart. The hello stamp is also from Close To My Heart from the For Every Occasion stamp set. I mounted the hello layer and added some pewter colored eyelets.

4/21 {polka dots & flowers}

Got this paper quite some time ago at smudges in Chaska. The stamps are from Close To My Heart- Rustic Flowers. I stamped it twice. Once in holiday red and the other in black. Cut them out and put a bigger brad in the center. Then taped down the tips of the red flower so that they stay where I put them!

4/21 {heartfelt}

This is one of the new sets of stamps I ordered from the last Close To My Heart catalog. It's called heartfelt. I typically am not a 'heart person' but I liked this set. Nice for anniversary cards, etc.

The card base is white, layered with sweet leaf. The white stock was edged in topiary ink and mounted for some interest. The heart was stamped in sweet leaf and the word 'you' was stamped in topiary. Don't recall which brands the ribbon and pearl accents are.

4/19 { 'nother birthday card }


I needed another birthday card this month! I used an oldie but goodie- Rustic Flowers by Close To My Heart. The main flower image is cut out ad mounted and then the paper is sort of bent down. Looks cool in person. The colors are sweet leaf, black and petal, also CTMH.

4/ 18 {spring-y birthday card}

I really enjoy the sweet leaf paper from Close To My Heart. I paired it with white and pink carnation. I used the flower outline stamp and circle image from Thing Of Beauty (CTMH). The Happy Birthday sentiment is from Happy Birthday, also Close To My Heart. The scalloped edge was made from my corner rounder.

4/15 {where does the time go?}

Holy smokes, its been a while since i've posted.

Made this birthday card for a friend. I always struggle with male birthday cards. Luckily, this paper that I heart is from Crate Paper and it looked masculine to me. It all coordinates, so I just picked random patterns and layered it. I also love the distressed look that the paper has. The Happy Birthday sentiment is from Happy Birthday by Close To My Heart. love the font of the sentiment.

4/2 {thinking of you}

Made this card to route at work. It's being used as a sympathy card. The Thank You sentiment is from For Every Occasion and the flower bouquet is from a really old Close To My Heart stamp. I really like the flower bouquet and don't use it all that often. Unfortunately, I had to use it for a sympathy card.

Colors are amethyst and black- both close to my heart.
