Embossed Metal Swing-Style Card

Here is a card from my Cardmaker-kit-of-the-month for January. It is an embossed craft metal swing-style card. It is such a wonderful kit-of-the-month, you always learn something new. They also have a website with video to help you out. I love that they always include some stamps for you. Check it out at http://www.cardmakerkitclub.com/

Camping Album

This is a Camping Album I made for my camping friend Jean. This is made with invitation size envelopes. This is has the envelopes and tabs in the middle. I made the tabs with ribbons which you can pull out and either journal on or add pictures. I used the Cricut cartridge "Campin' Critters".

Happy Birthday Stephanie!!

Happy Birthday Stephanie!! I made this card for my wonderful daughter-in-law Stephanie. I hope she has a wonderful fun filled day. This card has a pocket on the front of the card for a small album. The album I chose to make for Stephanie was a wine one.

Valentine Tea Invites

I am having a Valentine Tea Luncheon next week and these are the invites I made. They are from the Club S.E.I January kit. I love them, they are so vintage and cute.

Card Organizer Albums

These are Card Organizer Albums for birthday Cards. You could use them for anything. There is a pocket for each month. I had to make two or else it would have been too thick. I have a tag on each page to record the birthdays for that month. I got the idea and directions from Bo Bunny website. I just found out they have a monthly free Blog Class. I will be checking that out every month now and going back over past classes. Thank so much Bo Bunny!!! I don't have a store close that sells Bo Bunny products, so I used a new pack of paper I got at Michaels. It is called Steampunk Botanica. I just love the look of it. It is a card stock that is mostly glossy and a little bit of glitter. I will be getting another pack soon.
