Card for SIL

Hello my friends, today I want to share with you a card I made for my Dearest SIL.  I used the free Digi image "Hope Fights".  I have been trying to create & send her a card every 2-3 days.  Please PRAY for a cure for Breast Cancer, so that other families don't have to go through what we are dealing with now. 

Thanks again for all the prayers  my crafting family.

I also would like to thank Justine for my new Banner!!!!

Hope you are all having a great week so far, I can't complain it's been good here on my end.  Happy Crafting!!

More Greeting Farm images.....

I just love the stamps from "The Greeting Farm" they are fun to color, just like the Tilda's/Magnolia's.  I made these two cards for 2 special friends I have met through crafting.   I am excited to start my Friday night crafting again with friends, we took a 3 month break for the Holiday Season.  Talk about withdrawals!!  LOL.......   I will post the project that we will make  along with the tutorial this weekend.

Cute Tilda.....

Took a break from  more BD cards that I have to get done & made this one & a Valentine creation.

I used this cute Tilda stamp,colored her with Copics & added bling to her ponytails. Sentiment is from Price Busters stamp bin.  I love this LO, so decided to use it a few more times, hope you don't get tired of seeing this layout.

Birthday, Birthday & more Birthdays!!!

This is the month for BD's for me.  I have one nephew, two nieces, my hubby, daughter & mine all in January.  So I have been busy trying to come up with some BD cards. I decided to ink up my Greeting Farm Stamps....been on SCS a lot lately looking for tutorials, layouts etc.....

This is for my nephew who will be turning 10 next week.  He love's UH sports, so I used the colors of the University.  Baseball Ian is so Cute! Copics for coloring,buttons from WalMart, sentiment from my box of word stamps....assorted.

Tennis Anya was the perfect Stamp to use, as my neice Loves to play Tennis!

I saw this layout on SplitCoast Stampers, and thought it was pretty.  I used my Nesties to make circles, Copics for the coloring, flowers from Summer at Roses on Paper.  Sentiment is from the SU set called All Sport.  I used her favorite color combo, sage (SU~old olive) & brown. (SU~chocolate chip)

Come back in a few days to see more BD cards!

Have a Great week everyone, and have fun stamping!

Hugs

Denise

Cards for my Daughter!

Happy New Year!!  Thank you to all for your comments, raks, cards, emails, etc... I felt the Love!

I want to share cards that I made for my DD for Christmas & her upcoming BD.

This was the Christmas card I made for her using one of the Greeting Farms stamps, their Christmas stamps where all so cute, I HAD to buy them!  LOL
The beautiful crochet flower was made by Sweet Elena!

Her BD is in a few weeks, I always wanted to make a longer card to fit into the #10 envelopes, I used this adorable image I got from a "stamp swap" we had on one of our Friday craft nights....It reminds me of my daughter when she was a little girl, so I knew I had to make her BD card with it.

My daughter & I at our church on Christmas eve.

Thanks again to all you beautiful crafting/blogging buddies.  I thank God for the opportunity that he has given me to meet such wonderful friends through crafting!

Hugs,

Denise
