Pinterest Inspiration

Pinterest has been such an inspiration for my card making. While I don't look to copy other cards I see, for the most part,  I do look at the cards to give me inspiration on my projects.  The one exception is the "bird card". I thought it was so clever when I saw it on Pinterest, I just had to make my own version, especially because I just happened to buy these birds at Joanne Fabric over the weekend! The main card color is tan, however, the photo makes it look green.




I was able to make two more cards to send to Retreat attendees.

More cards




I'm preparing for the upcoming Church Retreat with the theme of "Strength for The Journey".



"Strength for the Journey"



I finally found my "Just a little note" stamp. I'm big into music so anytime
I can use the music theme makes me happy.


I really like black and white combo.



I've had this mermaid card stock for awhile and was waiting for the 
perfect project. This is a birthday card.

Sharing my Creations

This was done with the Cricut, cutting out the flowers with white paper, then using the purple paper in the bacground. The green stems were cut using the Cricut.


I've had the rounded frame for awhile now, just waiting for the right moment to use it.

I was looking for a "Just a Note" stamp but couldn't find one so I printed this off instead.


I enjoyed my attempt at stamping and using chalk.



This is one of my favorites since I'm very fond of the pink and green combination.


Very simple but you can never go wrong with brown/blue combo.



This was another attempt at stamping. Not my favorite but it will do.


Pink and green all occasion card.
