Buster

                                                  

Here's another challenge I had from my upline.  I had actually done a different card, but wanted to come up with something original...thus Buster the punch dog was created.

With Sympathy

This card is a case from Beth Desiegelaere. I was looking for a sympathy card and came across hers. I'm not sure what hers was intended for, but I added the "With Sympathy" on mine.

Card stock:  Early Espresso and Very Vanilla

Classic Stampin' Pad:  Early Espresso

Early Espresso 5/8" grosgrain ribbon

Lovely as a Tree - Happy Birthday

I made this card from leftover card stock that I had when I made a Christmas card for a challenge from my upline. I originally made the tree for a sympathy card, but didn't think the subtle sponging I did on the tree went with my sympathy card...so I created a masculine b-day card instead.

Stamp set:  Lovely as a Tree

Cardstock:  Bravo Burgundy, Always Artichoke and Very Vanilla. 

    Classic Stampin' pad:  Early Espresso

Modern Label Ex-Lg punch

Here is a challenge from my upline.  At our October meeting she had us use the Letterpress Plates.  We were suppose to bring our finished cards to our November meeting.  Nope, I didn't bring mine. :(  I had cleaned up my mess and couldn't remember where I had tucked my paper away...but I finally found it last night and got it made up. :)

Just Starting Out!

Well, I figured it was about time for me to set up a blog, so here goes...  We'll see where this takes me, and if I faithfully post the cards I make.  Now I just need to actually tell a few of you friends out there that I have this going on!
