Be Happy

A card I had done for a friend. She sells MaryKay and needed some cards. I cut the lipsticks out of the Dressed to Impress paper and used a dies of a streamer to make the scales on the edge and "Don't Worry be" is put together in individual letters. The background is paper from the Magnolia designer series. My cards always seem so simple to me but I thought this one came out really nice. 

Paper Pumpkin April

This is some of paper pumpkin cards I made from the April. This is an easy and fun way to get into card making if you aren't sure where to start. It gives you step by step on how to make the designs. You can also deviate and make slight variations of the designs. It is really easy and super fun when you aren't feeling creative. It is a monthly subscription with different options that fit your budget. 

Mother's Day

Mother's Day is coming up on Sunday. Everyday should be mother appreciation day and there shouldn't be a designated day to make you dote on your mom. My mom is the best. Always there, always full of fun anecdotes about anything. Full of advice and always taking care of everyone else. The four of us were most likely a giant pain in the ass all the time and it was just the 5 of us. My mom always did the best for us and taught me to be strong and be able to take care of myself without anyone's help. She also taught me how to cook and care about everyone else. Everyday I realize that I am more like my mama everyday. I love you mama!

Father in Laws Birthday

 My Father in Laws birthday was a week or so ago. I did miss his birthday but I made it for him a little late and sent it out the following week. I folded the front of the card in half and extended an addition to the front. The cake I probably made the hard way but I stamped it all together and very carefully cut it out. The candles were extremely hard.
