                                                      Let them eat cake!
Let them eat cake, as long as it is low fat, sugar free, gluten free and taste fabulous....lol  This tag I finished last night, my inspiration was a tag I found on Pinterest.    The colors are soft and I am considering adding more bling......as you know there is always room for BLING!

                                                    Dressmakers Tags
This was one of my favs for the year, I love using the tulle and making the dress makers form and adding embellishments.  For "Bring your child to work day" recently I hosted the Crafts portion of the day.  I pre-made 17 of the completed dress forms to keep the class moving along (I had blisters, and mass production is not my style...lol)  but I was very pleased, the kids had fun and even enhanced what I did and gave me great ideas for my next ones, like adding bling to the tulle on the skirt...love it!  The last one I made I added angel wings and lots of sparkle.  Fun Fun.  Looks like something for a fairy, I know who that tag will go to now. =)
                                                      Celebrate Mother's Day
This was my design for Mother's Day 2012, this is a celebration card, but I made the same one for my Mom, she liked it, but then again she's Mom!!
                                                              Take The Time To Laugh
This one looks like a House Warming card, not originally intended but it evolved into one.  Took on a life of it's own.  Soft colors and I have been trying to figure out how to use the dollies for a year now.  I have been using my sewing machine for more cards that fabrics lately.
Reflections
New card fresh off the presses, finished it today (not totally finished, I need to complete the inside) this is using the new Graphics 45 paper "A Ladies Diary".  Still lovin the paper!!!  Funny thing I hate using the paper because then it will be gone, but what good does it do me to sit in my stack of papers and not get used?  New reality show "Paper Hoarders"....lol
Mason Jar
New Birthday Card, the old time mason jar was fun.  Love the colors and design, I will definitely make more of this design, not just for birthdays.  I recently made this card for my friend Rose as a Good Luck on a new position she accepted.  I wish her the best of luck!


These are my  newest creations.  I don't find it easy to make cards for men, mine are usually too "girly" (pink, flowery and sparklely..lol), but I did enjoy making these tags and cards for this Father's Day 2012.  The 2nd to the last card is using the new Graphic 45 "A Ladies Diary".  Love the paper!  The first tag has a stick pin made from an old silver bracelet I found while treasure hunting with my Mother in Law.  That particular tag I used for my monthly Tag swap for June with the online Altered Paper Tag Swap group.
