This was a card for a family friend who LOVES fishing and was turning 60...he was very impressed and even knew the fish stamp was of a barramundi.

I taught card making classes for a couple of ladies, a few years ago...sadly it didn't continue. I loved their enthusiasm and amazement that they could copy what I made, for themselves. This was one of the sample cards....

This was a card I made for my fiance birthday. He is a cabinet maker, so uses tools all the time. He was very happy with this creation. The tools are quite solid, made of some type of metal - not plastic.

Here's another one using the same layout, but paper flowers and different colours.

Made this awhile ago, still love the layout. I made it up myself, but I am sure someone else has made a card like this before. The rose buds are real too.

Surprise for me....I just found this on my computer and I don't remember making it! Do I really make that many cards??? Well you can guess that it is another...Papertrey! The patterned paper is from Everyday Blessings, the cardstock is Spring Moss and so is the satin ribbon. The flower is from Beautiful Blooms and stamped once onto Spring Moss and once onto white cardstock and then cut and mounted. This time I used a crystal/rhinestone for the centre. Happy Birthday sentiment from Birthday Basics. Enjoy.....

Birthday Card for my mum...
All items are from....yes Papertrey! On the front of a 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" white card, I scored a line along each edge as a frame. I cut a square out of the centre and glued a piece of vellum on the inside. I then cut four 1" squares from Pink Patterns patterned paper and mounted onto the vellum. Cut 2 slits into the left side of cards and threaded Berry Sorbet Polka Dot ribbon. The sentiment is from Birthday Basics and the large flower from Beautiful Blooms was stamped twice, once on Berry Sorbet cardstock and once on Sweet Blush cardstock and cut with fine point scissors. Then repeated for the smaller flower. Then just layered on top of each other and finally onto centre of card, with a half pearl to finish it off nicely!!
