I have been away from card making for a few days, my daughter had her 4 wisdom teeth pulled out on wednesday. We chose this week because she is on spring break, and with the nice weather...I have been doing things around the house and making soft foods for her to eat. So these cards I made a few days ago and didn't get a chance to post them. I stamped them out at my BFF Janine's house last week. If you haven't been to her blog, I will send you there in a second to check out the cool graduation card that she made. I saw her grad card and followed her link to another cool blog to see the easy instructions on how to do the folded card that I did. Wow! Did you follow all that? I hope you did and I am not totally confusing you, sometimes brain works faster than typing hand.
This little kewpie is from Clear Art Stamps. I have to admit that I didn't think they would be my style. But I got to stamping them out and the more I stamped, the more I liked... Then I started coloring them up and I just loved how they popped off of the craft cardstock!
I didn't leave a ton of room around this little one with the birthday cake, so I had to cut it out individually.
This is a cool little card that is 4x12 and folded into this square, making it a gift card holder. These days...who doesn't love gift cards! If you wanna check out what my BFF Janine did with this fold, click here. If you just wanna go straight to the gal who shows you how the card is folded, click here. It's a trail worth following because Janine did a really awesome gradution card and that season is coming up real fast!
My inside just had some of the dotted Making Memories paper that I used here on the front of my card. Plus, because I used black cardstock, you might not get the best idea of how it all looks. Now for another cute kewpie...
This little guy is so stinking cute! I used my punch from Stampin' UP! to make this look like note paper, and a wonderful piece of ledger paper from Making Memories.
Both of the patterned papers are from My Minds Eye. That chipboard 'note' is from a dollar bin at my lss, had that for a while. I just love blue and brown together and I picked up this brown satin ribbon at Michael's, it ties so nice. It is such a soft silky ribbon. I added two little Robins Nest dewdrops and off to my card basket at work!
I do have more little kewpies to turn into cards and if you haven't looked at this stamp line you gotta jump over there. They have great detailed stamps and I have my eye on a fishing set...
Thanks for dropping by today and have a wonderful weekend! :)
