For the future Young Woman

One of the Young Women leaders in our ward was having her first girl. So I made this card for all the YW to sign for her. You can imagine it filled with 25+ names and well-wishes...it was beautiful!

From Hawaii

I've been attending a monthly card group since Kimberly was born. Out of the 15+ members, I'm the only one with children at home. Anyway, one of the ladies does a lot of traveling and went on a cruise to Hawaii. Of course, when you travel, it is a known fact that you will be making stops at any craft stores along the way. And she stopped into one in Hawaii. The shop didn't have ANY samples up...so, my friend suggested that OUR club make some for the shop! Well, my friend got to come home with free "Hawaiian" stamps (for her) and WE got to make the beautiful sample cards to send back.

These are the 5 cards I designed for the shop, with the stamps I borrowed.

As a wedding gift...

Well, for some of us, as newly weds we don't know the right thing to get our spouse. So, I made this card set as a gift for our Primary President when she got married. Now she has her holidays and HIS birthday covered...for the year. I wish "I" had a set like that;)

Most of these were in color sets of 4. The last card I made and signed with a matching pen as a keepsake.

MY personalized stationery

I made this card to go with one of the teacher's gifts at the end of school. I had never made a monogramed card with MY name before...it was sooo cool:) Ha ha ha. The things we get excited about!

Father's Day card

When I made this card for my Dad, I made sure to stamp "RELAX" on the inside. Boy, I'm glad I did because he didn't want anything to do with a lawnmower that day! "Happy Father's Day Dad."

Desk Gifts

This spiral notebook was made with fun paper. I even added some shiny gems to the bottom. I love adding tabs on the side too. It puts just that extra touch. The flowers are one of my favorites to make...Dahalia folds. Enjoy!

I used more of my new paper with these desk calendar/note pads. They were made with plastic photo frames that were laid down (so they'd sit upright on a desk). Kimberly even personalized them with a "miss you" note for her 2 teachers:) Perfect addition!

This covered notebook with pen was a teacher gift I made with some of my new paper. It was very time consuming in that I had to adjust the measurements from a post-it note size to this notebook size. I was thrilled with the finished product. I also made 5 matching monogramed cards with envelopes. Very nice!

Borrowed images.

What a great way to use the same image on so many different cards! It makes them all look sooo unique. Try it...share your images with others while stamping theirs and see what you can make:)

I used the same image, but with different paper and colors. What do you think? I sent these out for Valentine's day. The chocolates look good enough to EAT! Don't you think? I even used scented markers which gave an added temptation:) Too bad they weren't edible!

Every few months at my stamp club, we share our stamps. These are some of the images I stamped off a couple times so, I could color in later and make a card. This card was sent to my mother-in-law. I really liked the image of the young girl...it reminds me of MY girls! Hope you like it.
