Just Some Cards....

Just wanted to post a few cards I have made over the last few months.There are also a few embroidered items shown as well.
This card was  inspired by Melissa Phillips of lilybeanpaperie. The Birds are from PTI Brushed Birds stamp set; the floral background is a stamp from Especially You, also by PTI. Stamped sentiment is from Penned Elegance.

I purchased and printed the lavender graphics. The sentiment is a stamp from the PTI Penned Elegance Stamp Set. Card is a PTI die.

I used stamps and dies from Concord & Ninth for the cake and sentiment. The base die is PTI's Shape Shifters Square 2.

A couple of cards for two of my grandsons who will start kindergarten next week! I packaged them with a set of nice thick automatic lead pencils. The die cut square frame is a piece of the PTI Shape Shifters Square 2. Schoolhouse and sentiment are also PTI...Petite Places: School.


A couple of embroidered towels for a bridal shower gift.


And this card actually has designs by the same designer of the embroidered towel shown above. The die cut is from a PTI die..can't think of the name offhand!

A Father's Day card using PTI's Dapper Chap.


An embroidered muslin swaddle blanket by Lou Lou Lollipop. Embroidered Cross Design by Zundt Design. The card used the Phrases & Praises stamp set from PTI; the tiny cross was an older stamp from Archivers years ago, and the baby in christening gown is a digital stamp purchased from liliofthevalley.uk



I actually purchased the fabric for this swaddle blanket and made (hemmed) the blanket. Then I embroidered the name and baby feet on it, and attached a card. Card designs are made from PTI's Make it Market Kit called Wee Folk.

These tiny cards were also inspired by Melissa Phillips of lilibeanpaperie. She has a great style, and I love her work. I didn't have the same sentiments nor background stamps that she used, but I like how they turned out.

This was for my nephew's 5th birthday, so I thought the 5 candle diecut/stamp would be perfect. The candles and sentiment are from Concord & Ninth. The circle diecut is PTI's Shape Shifters: Circle 1.

And this card was for a granddaughter who broke her wrist earlier this summer. Also from PTI called Splits: Get Well Soon.

PTI Orchid Expressions Stamp Set and dies. The background square is from the set of Shape Shifters: Square 2.



Corners are diecuts using the PTI Corner Adorners dies  and they are stamped with Fine Linen ink. The paper is from the chicken scratch pad (PTI); The bride/groom stamp is an older one from Stampendous.

OK, so that is a little bit of what I have been up to. I hope to do a post soon on a new venture...a business with my daughter, Megan. We are offering some embroidered items, heat printing and heat press. You can check out our instagram here
