CPS Sketch #69




I have stalked this site for weeks looking at all the cool cards people make based on each week's sketch. This week I actually made one too! Here is the sketch.

I am very happy with the way this card turned out. Probably one of my faves I've made in awhile. You will have to forgive that it's a winter card in the middle of June, but when I saw the square in the middle I immediately thought of a snowflake. And I can't get enough of the Basic Grey Figgy Pudding paper. It's definitely one of my BG faves! The clear plastic snowflake is from Heidi Swapp and the snowflake sticker from EK Success. The gem from Paper Studio and lace tape from Around the Block. I curled up the edges of the snowflakes to give the card more dimension.

Christmas Cards for Teacher - DCWV





I stayed up way too late last night and cranked these out for a call. It ended at midnight and one of the card types were Holiday Teacher Cards. I had bought the Die Cuts With A View Grade School Stack (the mini one) at Joann's specifically for this and for other teacher card calls and am trying to be better about using what I buy so I made myself make some! I love their Butterflies and Blossoms but so far have struck out locally on finding any. Like I really need anymore flowers??? LOL. Anyway here were the two I came up with. The wind kept catching them this afternoon so they are being supported by rocks in the back!
(ETA: No love for them...I can't break into this magazine...but I keep trying!)
