more in the series...

Did you know that my favourite colour is purple (hahaha)...  I thought I would post a few more cards that I had made over the weekend.  They are all similar as I continue to use up scraps from my stash and as I haven't made much of a dent, I think I could be doing this for a long, long time  lol !  enjoy and scrap happy...

thinking of you...

I saw some very special people this weekend and just thinking about seeing them had me creating this card...  I found the perfect poem online to put on the inside of the card and am sorry that I only remembered to take a picture of the front of the card.  I love how it sparkles yet isn't gaudy looking.  Cardstock is from CTMH and the pattern paper is from DCWV Pocket Full of Posies.  Flowers are from Prima (large); Reflections (small) and the middle one is mine... the butterfly on the left is a Sandylion sticker and the one on the right is from Michael's wedding section.  Ribbon is from the dollar store and I think I need to go back and get some more of it because it is really nice to work with.  I am really happy with how it turned out.   scrap happy!

Speedy Recovery

I am currently backfilling for someone at work who is out for six weeks and I made up this card for everyone in the department to sign for her.  It so happens that she is also a fan of butterflies and the colour purple - how cool is that...  Cardstock is Bazill, butterflies from K&Co and the paper is from my scraps stash.  You may have noticed that I am really enjoying using a banner for my sentiment...  scrap happy!

Baby Shower

I have a lot of cards for many occasions in my stash but did not have anything for a baby shower which, of course, is the request I received this weekend.  I remembered that I had this clothesline stamp (by Ellison) and started with that.  I was going to use a button for the sun but found it too clumsy so I tried using this Fiskars corner stamp which I think does the job quite nicely.  The cloud brads were another clearance purchase but cannot recall from where and the sentiment is also a part of the stamp set noted above.  Paper is from my scrap stash (yaaaay!) and ribbon from Dollarama!  happy scrapping...
