Where does the time really go? I think about posting my cards here almost everyday but I never get down to doing it. There's always something else that needs to be done. Here's some cards to share.



This card is my contribution for a monthly card swap. Love the color of the paper! Everytime I look at this card, it always makes me smile.

Cardstock: PaperTrey Lemon Tart and Summer Sunrise
Ribbon: PaperTrey Summer Sunrise Twill
Others: Judykins Glaze, Stickles, Copic Markers




This is one of my favorite cards. Love PTI ribbon and paper!
Cut cardstock as how you would do with a normal card. This card is 5.5 inches by 8inches. Fold it in half. Using sticky tape, I taped the side where the opening of the card is and the bottom. Measure patterned paper on the front, adhere to cardstock. Using a 1 1/4circle punch, I positioned the punch towards the middle of the card before punching it out. I stamped my sentiment on a piece of cardstock before using my rectangle nestibilities to cut it out. Layer it with 2 pieces of cardstock. Using a strip of ribbon, I wrapped it around the middle of the card, ending behind the sentiment. Adhere. This is to hide the ends of the ribbon. Cut another piece of cardstock, punch a hole in the middle of it, tie a ribbon and the card is done.

Stamps: PaperTrey Birthday Sentiments
Cardstock: PaperTrey Berry Sorbet, Soft Blush.
Patterned Paper: PaperTrey 6X6 patterned paper pads
Others: Ribbon; PTI, Nestibilities




This was the first card I made using my scor-pal. Love it! It really makes it so easy to score paper! I've used it for other things since then, but sadly, I forgot to take a picture of it before I gave them away. Do you know that USPS now charge $0.20 on top of normal postage to send cards in a clear envie?! One of the cards I sent in a clear envie got returned to me with a note about additional postage.

Stamps: Owl set ; CC Designs (All That Scraps)
Cardstock: SU! Chocolate Chip, Old Olive
Others: Brads by Pink Hedgehog brads share

Look out in a couple of days for the new SU! colors. Just got the new SU color papers in! Wasn't sure if the ink pads were worth getting, so i hold it off for now. But I think I'm gonna have to get Kiwi Kiss for sure. It's a great color!
