Red White and Blue Cowboy Birthday Card

Hi! Here's a birthday card I made for a friend's 50th birthday. The party was a western theme so I decided to use the cowboy from A Child's Year cartridge. The cowboy has little star spurs on his boots, so I went with a red, white, and blue theme. I really like the denim paper stack used for this card. The pocket was a design on the cardstock and it worked perfect to hold a gift card.

Harley Davidson Motorcycle Birthday Card

Hi all! This is a card I made for our friends birthdays. Their birthdays are 2 days apart so I made one card for the both of them.

The bikes are on action wobbles. I wish I had take a video before I gave them the card. They looked really cute wobbling :-)

Flower Vase Sympathy Card

Hi all. I made this sympathy card for a good friend of mine who lost her sister recently. My friends favorite color is purple and that was the inspiration for the colors I chose. I really like the satin and glossy papers on the front of the card. I used the loop frame design on the front and on the inside. That's one of my favorite cuts on this cartridge. The stickles added to the flowers made them really stand out. Hopefully it brighted her day just a little bit.
