Color Blossom Thank You Card

I thought it would be fun to design some colorful blooms for SPRING.  Ahh, Spriiiing. Where are you? I really REALLY miss you.  In fact, I. can’t. wait. until you get here.  Believe me.  I will thank you for it! I gave my blooms a digital pencil crayon coloring and resized and arranged them here for a cheerful  printable digital THANK YOU CARD.  I was debating whether or not to make these blossoms available as pre-colored digital image downloads….what do you think?   Have a creative day my friends!  Deena

Tangerine Dream Birthday

December 2nd already!!  Only 23 days till Christmas! WHAAaaaat? Well I thought it might be a nice change to show something not Christmas related since everywhere we turn soon, that is all we’ll see! Not that I have anything against Christmas! It just gets a little overwhelming by times don’t you think?  I recently made a bundle of birthday cards and thought I’d start by sharing this one today.  I punched 6 squares in coordinating patterned papers and used a lovely tangerine colored cardstock to layer them on.  I then stamped the happy birthday sentiments over the papers and added a few tiny gems here and there.   3 simple steps really, and I love the results!

Holly Ribbons Christmas Card

I’ve created the sentiment using My Memories Suite Software‘s word art feature.  I replaced the O with my ACN CHRISTMAS WREATH image, and embossed the whole panel with a Cuttlebug Holly Ribbons folder.  I love the festive look the embossing gives this simple card!   What do you think?

Oh, My! Melting Snowman

Have you noticed that I love to make CAS cards?  Well I do!! Today’s CAS card made me laugh, and I hope it will make you smile too! The inside sentiment reads: I’m so sorry I missed your birthday! The image is one of my own ACN digis now available in my SHOP.  I created the sentiment using My Memories Software and printed the card front. It’s popped up using dimensional tape on a red panel and mounted to a white card base.
