I try to personalize my cards as much as possible especially if it’s to a favorite relative.  In this case, the card is for my nephew, Tom and I found a digital image that sooooo cute!And he’s a man (40’s I think) but I thought the kid’s digital image was so much more cuter than an adult image would have been.  I also don’t know what color/level he’s at so… Read More »

Happy Birthday Rachel

This is the reason I make cards!   When I make cards for my kids, grandkids and close friends, I always personalize it which means I may buy outside Stampin’ Up! for that perfect image.  In this case, I found a digital image of a DJ (my grandson Tanner’s hobby) and made a card for his birthday.  You can view it here.    I received a text from my grandson below thanking… Read More »

Happy Birthday to my BFF Becky!

Today’s card is for my best friend, Becky, who lives in California.  We have been friends since 1960 (high school) and are godmother to each of our daughters.

Masculine Monday

Starting on 9 June 2014, I will be featuring masculine cards every Monday.  This type of card is the hardest type of card for me to make.  And yet, most of the people (relatives) I send cards to are males (grandsons, sons-in-law, nephews, brothers) so go figure!This card is for my brother, Eddie who birthday this year falls on Father’s Day (15 June).  I used the digital image from Counryside. … Read More »

Happy Birthday Cissy!

My granddaughter, Cissy, loves owls so it was relatively easy to make her a card.  Her bedroom colors are red, white and black and I decided to use those colors for her card.  I find it very difficult to make cards for teenage girls because they are so picky!  Which age group do you have a problem with for cards?I used Red Glimmer Paper to give the card a little “oomph!”… Read More »
