Joyfold cards

this was my first attempt at a 'Joyfold' card... it took me a while, but that's ok... i think it turned out well... i enjoyed it so much apparently that i made a second one :)

Going Hawaiian

This is a gift i made my cousin, lillie, for her & her husband's 'open house'. It's probably my third time to use etching on glass... i haven't perfected it by any means but i enjoy doing it... minus the fact that the etching cream smells like bad eggs... meh.

The plate is for a friend's wedding... i'm still learning the 'in's and out's' of etching- but i'm a fan ...

scrapbooking for mom

i had fun with this layout... it's for my mom's

scrapbook! the pictures are from my dad's birthday outing- it was a fun evening with family!

this card was for my mom's birthday. I LOVE the little swirly thing on the side... it's my new discovery from the 'home accents' cartridge... :)

Baby Caleb is here

My friend Aliceson just gave birth to her first baby, Caleb! Thankfully i got the doodlecharm cartridge in time to make this cute, and oddly shaped, baby face :) I think it's adorable in a goofy way. I hope she enjoys it.

these cards took me way too long to make

I don't know what it was... but something made me move incredibly slow on these cards... that's ok, it was a good stress reliever.
I got 2 new cartridges this week... i've used them some, but haven't quite 'explored' them yet as much as i've wanted to... in time.

i think i'm addicted

I was in another card making mood apparently.

the 'thank you' card was made for another Kenya donation...the 'birthday card' idea came from another blog i happened upon... i was a fan of the use of the vellum so i had to make my own :) ... i used a combination of stamps, punches, the 'cuttin up' & 'home accents' cartridge.

I'm wanting to get another cartridge- not sure which one though... so many choices haha

on a muggy Monday afternoon

My good friend, Kim, inspired this card. She gave birth to a beautiful baby boy three days before Mother's Day. I thought it was fitting to remind her of the blessing that God has given her & her husband... (as if she needs reminding haha)....


My 'skydiving page' was the first page to be re-done after getting my cricut. I figured, since it was such an amazing event, it needed to look good :). I'm not jumping up & down, but still relatively pleased with it.

'Oh, the Places you'll go' by Dr. Seuss is one of my favorite books... It seemed fitting.
