Best Wishes...

In my never ending quest to make cards that are able to mail with a single first class stamp, here is my next offering for you.


My card is a 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 tent fold card made by using only Heartfelt Creations Tulip Time papers.  Quick and simple and ready to go!

Now I'm off to start my day!

A Quick Card to Say Hello.....

This will be sent for a special Hello as it will cost a bit to mail.  I save these for when I need to send someone a special card.  

I used Heartfelt Creations for all but the sentiment.  The flowers were some that I already had made up and in a box and I can't remember all the collections.  Just start with one of the pretty dies and build the card from there!


This one just makes me happy!  I love all the flowers and they remind me of Spring.  We have been having warming weather and Spring is definitely in the air!

Well that's it for me.  I'm off for a cup of coffee...have a great Monday!

Card of Encouragement...

Good morning my friends.  I'm here this morning to share with you a quick card of encouragement made with all Heartfelt Creations products.  A 5 X 7 card using  Butterfly Dreams paper collection and a Decorative Circle Frames die cut!  Easy Peasy and it really packs a punch.  


I already know where this one is going and I'm hoping it will cheer them!

Just a Card to say Hello...

Good afternoon my friends and welcome.  I'm here to share a card I made using the Spellbinders BetterPress Plate called A Friend Like You Bouquet.  I used watercolor pencils to color these beautiful flowers and I love that you can feel the image.  I will be sending this card to just say Hello to a friend of mine.

The card is nice and flat so I can mail with one stamp!


I see another card using this press plate in the coming days. It's a lot of fun to color and it goes quickly.  There are a couple more sentiments in the set and of course you could use other sentiments.

A Birthday Card....Can You Handle the Pressure Challenge...

Good morning my friends and welcome.  I'm here this morning to bring you this little birthday card made using an embossing folder.  I used the Anna Griffin Foundry folder and the sentiment is a Heartfelt Creations die called French Courtyard.  I also used some of the flowers from my stash so it was a quick and easy card to make.

I'm entering this in the Can You Handle the Pressure Challenge. This Challenge is Anything Goes Embossing with a twist of Birthdays!  

I'm off for another cup of coffee.  Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!

Card For Hope....

Good morning everyone and welcome!  Well here in East Tennessee we have gone from temps being in the single digits and snow a week ago to 53 degrees and thunderstorms today!  We are on a roller coaster with our weather but I have to admit the rain is a nice break from all that snow and cold we endured last week!  

My thoughts have turned toward Spring this morning so I'm here to share a card I made using the Lisa Horton Calla Lily embossing folder and die.  It reminds me of Easter!


I colored it with chalk and mounted it on a panel embossed with an old swiss dot folder from long ago.  This would make a great encouragement card for someone.

Well that does it for me this morning.  I'm off to work on some bookmarks for my friends at the nursing home!

Can You Handle the Prerssure Challenge...

Good morning everyone and welcome!  I'm here this morning to share a card I made for the Can You Handle The Pressure Challenge.  I have several embossing folders and am trying to use them more so this challenge is just perfect for me.  The only rule is you must use an embossing folder.  The optional them this challenge is SNOW PEOPLE.  

I used a Tim Holtz embossing folder and I think the name is Bricked.  The snowman is from Heartfelt Creations and I stamped onto watercolor paper and colored with my Inktense pencils.  I am a little behind with my birthday cards so I decided to make this one of them.  The sentiment is also from Heartfelt Creations.
