Birthday Girl in Red

Friends, meet again.

I have a card in my file here and I haven't posted it yet for any challenges. This card is for my younger sista for her 40th birthday last April. She was very happy to receive this card. That's what my Mom told me last week when I visited her. Oh, I'm so glad she likes it.

This is one of my newest Tilda stamps. The flower is the one I bought in the store. I used kraft cardstock because I am still addicted to using this kraft. It can go with any colors, I think.

Hugs - Sparkle & Shine

Hello friends,

As I said early this year, that I would add more flowers on my creation, here it is another card with a flower on it. Just a simple rolled flower. I used Marianne die to make this. I added Diamond stickles on the edge of the flower. I also sprayed Bubbles Glimmer Mist all over the front card. Though the card base is light pink, the sparkle and shine can give the card a pretty nuance. Even on the Hugs tag, it looks so covered with the shine. This is the first time for me to use Glimmer Mist all over the card, as I only used Glimmer Mist for the scrapbook project. What do you think?

This is the closer look.

And this is the look of the flower. See that the brown branch and leaves are also shiny because of that Bubbles Glimmer Mist. Oh.. what the first experience..

Recycling envelopes

Hi friends,

Surely you are familiar with the green sign above. As also a card maker, of course, I have some new papers and old papers. Big as 12'x12' and also scraps. Since I also enjoy sending and receiving cards from friends in this globe, I sometimes got envelopes which were plain outside but patterned inside. I want to share some cards which used a used envelope and turned it into flowers and leaves. Most of them were in rolled flowers.

Enjoy...

Hope you are inspired in using used envelopes and turn them into something beautiful.

Thanks for looking, friends.

May CCC - Just Saying Hello

Update: It's here. (June 1, 2011)

Friends,

Ohh, I was sooo glad that I found again Deb's blog to join the CCC. The limited time for me had made me do this simple card. Hope the recipient likes this one. Thanks for organizing the CCC, Deborah...

The CCC is much different from the previous I joined. Now, we have to make the card, link it to Lily Pad Cards. Then we are counted to join. This is my card for this CCC.

The card is based on the sketch like this:

Thanks for looking, friends.......and can't wait to send this to the lovely lady out there in this globe...
