Look what I received....

Hi All

Sorry, I haven't posted in a little while. Frank, my significant other, brought my birthday present home the other day, a cold. And boy it's been a duzy. I haven't had a cold for 4-5 years and I haven't had a flu shot in 3 years so I finally caught a cold. OK, now that I've explained my absence lets get on to more fun things..........

 

Well, I just have to share with you all, a card that I received for my birthday from Pat. The card came packaged in it's own little box. Now how cool is that.

Next, I untied the bow.............

and peeked inside 

And here is the card that was inside,

very pretty isn't it!!

My birthday was Tuesday, and I received cards, gifts and calls from friends. Thanks to all of you, especially to Barb who left me a song. Loved it!!!

Well that is it for now, thanks for stopping by, see you soon, and.....

A Fan Fold Card

You remember the Fan Fold card that I posted in the Blog Hop post February 13??? Here are a few pictures of that card. It is so cute.

Well, I mentioned that I would make a video for everyone, to guide you thru the construction of the card  and also show you how easy this is to make. Well, here is the video.

I have a new tab, or page at the top that says, Videos and Techniques. This page will now house all of my videos and any techniques that I publish. I hope that this will make it easy to find a video, all in one spot.

Please be sure to let me know if you have any questions.

Have fun making your own Fan Fold Card. I would love to see your creations.

That's it for now, thanks for stopping by, see you soon,

Card Patterns Sketch 102

Hello there,

Today, I want to share with you a new sketch from Card Patterns and show you my take on that sketch. The stamp I used is so pretty, its in a set from Sparkle N Sprinkle, set 160 Butterflies. I also glittered some corrigated pieces, used one of my handmade flowers and topped the flower with a butterfly made out of vellum and covered in glitter.

Stamp- Set 160 Sparkle N Sprinkle

Markers - Copic Markers

Glitter - Bridal G1029, Black Ice G1020, Aquamarine G1062 (all Sparkle N Sprinkle)

Butterfly Die - Mariannes Design LR0115

Hope you like the butterflies. These remind me of warmer weather and it's coming.

Well that is it for now, thanks for stopping by, see you soon
