It was my friend, Rae’s birthday on Sunday. You will find that I always post birthday cards after the fact. that is because I would hate for someone to see their card on my blog before they get the real version. So, Rae, happy belated birthday.
Rae loves hydrangeas and I had some paper ones, so I thought that the Bella paper pack was the best match. I used some Laundry Line rub-on’s from My Mind’s Eye and some adhesive backed half pearls. For the inside, I used a couple more rub-ons and For Every Occasion stamp set. I am really pleased with how it turned out. A pretty card for a pretty lady.
Happy Mother’s Day to all you moms out there. I was looking for online for ideas for my MIL for Mother’s Day. She LOVES tea so we bought her some wonderful types of tea leaves and a tea diffuser. There are things like Raspberry Passionfruit and Mint Chocolate Truffle. I know she will enjoy this gift very much. I had made my mom a tea cup card for Mother’s Day already and I rarely make the same card twice, so I wanted to find something different. I looked online for a teapot pattern and I came across this really cute pattern. You can find it here. I knew it would make the perfect card for a tea-riffic Mother.

I made this card for my sister-in-law for her birthday. My supplies were limited, as I was at my sister’s house when I made it and did not have access to any of my CTMH supplies. Thankfully she had a few stamp sets and it all worked out just fine. It makes me sad to look at the card and think of spring because it is snowing out again today and after the beautiful week we had last week, I was wondering if that was our summer :(
Supplies used (CTMH unless otherwise noted):
Intrinsic Backgrounds Stamp Set
White Daisy Sassy Strands (retired)
Paper, flowers, ribbon and buttons (not CTMH; from my sister’s stash)
I paper pieced the birds, nest and leaves and attached them with pop dots.
The kids have been invited to a birthday party on Saturday for a little girl in the neighborhood. She will be turning six and I thought it was a great opportunity to make a card using the SU! sweet treats cups, which I had purchased some time ago. I would like to find some smaller gum balls for them, but alas, these will have to do until I accomplish that quest.
Most of the products used were from Stampin’ Up! This includes the paper, the gumball machine, the sweet treats cup and the gumball stamp used on the inside.
The sentiment from the inside of the card CTMH – For Every Occasion.
I am looking forward to playing around with the Sweet Treats cups some more, so there will likely be more post with them in the future.
I hope Emily enjoys her card and has a wonderful birthday!
I made this card for Marc’s cousins who are expecting their second child in the fall. I pretty much CASED it from a fellow CTMH consultant, Vicki Wizniuk. She is one of the most artistic people and I love to follow her blog. She is the inspiration for many of the projects I make. You can see her version of the card here.
Products I used for the card: Topstitch level 2 paper pack, Felicity stamp set, For Every Occasion stamp set, Tiny Typewriter stamp set, SU! Build-a-brad, Clear sparkle
