God's Four Letter Words

Using left over paper from another project, here's a spring card. I used Nestibilities and chalked around the edges.

Hello Friend

Graphics for this card are from Simply Spring by Shelly Comiskey and Spring is in the Air by Marie Cole, found on pccrafter.com. I used Cuttlebug die cut Friends Forever. Pop dots were used to give dimension to the cute little duck and Aleene's Paper Glaze for shine and dimension on the water splash. 

Camera is still not charged. I had to use my video camera. You don't realize how much you use something until you can't find it. I must have left the charger at my daughters. Hope I find it soon.

Flower Card Swap

Although my time is very limited, I joined in a card swap on pccrafter.com. I used the same set of graphics for both cards. They are by Marie Cole. I embossed both with my Cuttlebug and added buttons, bling and ric rac. I also inclued matching envelopes.

Toad-ally Awesome

This cute little basket this a GSD file by Ruthan from Uk Scrappers site. I added frog graphics from Laurie Furnell and Carolee Jones for this collection from pccrafter.com.

I found some cute frog mints, but the box was not very attractive. I stapled a topper for the baggy to give it a new look. They help get you hopping and gets the frog out of your throat.

When I saw a package of green M&M's, I just had to make these Frog-a-licious Pills. They will give you all the things listed without giving you that green tint to your skin. LOL

Can anyone that reads have too many bookmarks?

I forgot to take pictures before I gave it away.  So thank you Jolynn for helping me out. Hope you liked them.

RAK Friendship Card

RAK (random acts of kindness) they are so wonderful to receive. Andrea sent me these wonderful friendship cards. They are even better in person. I know the recipients will love them too. Thanks Andrea. Check our her inspiring blog Here.

St. Patrick's Bracelet

Fred Meyers had green bead bracelets, one with small beads and the other with larger beads. Mixing the green beads with some silver, I have my own creation. To complete the gift, I wrote a little ditty:

St. Patty's Day is the day you know

For wearin' of the green.

So here is something green to wear

A little bit of bling.

Spring Card and 6" Envelope

This birthday card was accompanied by a certificate to Jackpot, Nevada. Graphics are from pccrafter.com. Swiss dot embossing file used for the back ground with my Cuttlebug. Added Enjoy brad and cute little dice beads for embellishments. Here is the link to instructions for spring card by Sandy Hulsart.

Instructions for 6"Square Envelope

1. Start with a 9"x 6" envelope (half card size)
2. Fold one end down 3"
3. Do not seal  flap shut. 
4. On the folded end of the envelope, line up a CD to the top and center.
5. With a pencil trace the bottom edge of CD to the fold line. 
6. Still do not seal the flap.  
7. Cut only the back layer of the envelope on the fold. Then cut the pencil drawn semi-circle.I have placed a colored paper between the front and back to show the cuts.
8. Now seal the flap closed.
9. Erase the pencil marks.
10. If desired, cut a coordinating paper 5"x 5 3/4". Add adhesive only to the top edge of color paper. Slip paper inside and press the adhesive down at the top. Fold flap over.
11. Insert finished card after you addressed the front. I plan on sealing shut with a sticker.
