3 Cards published!

Have you seen the new book 1000 Handmade Greetings “creative cards and clever correspondence”, by Quarry Publishing?  Well,  how fun is this?!  I have three cards published in it…the first one, on page 52,  my favorite card that I’ve ever made, (I reserve the right to change my mind).  lol   I made it for a couple really special friends in memory of their family.  The other two cards are on pages 62 and 188.  Here they are…

Friends of the Freezing Kind

I do love snowmen and as our new grandson would say,  “Dep,  I do!” !!!

Friends....talkin' in a Winter Wonderland
Friends....talkin' in a Winter Wonderland

Annette Allen Watkins, the artist behind the Printworks Collection rubber stamp company,  has drawn so many  snowman stamps over the years and I have loved them all!  This trio of snowmen stamp is probably going to end up as one of my faves though!  And then the white ice skates,  so fun…you’ve already read about my fond ice skating memories…*grin*

Cuttlebug snowflakes…brrrrr!

Nature’s butterfly

The swap card theme for stamp club this month is NATURE….I saw Shari’s butterfly card on Hero Arts blog and had to give it a try, even though I didn’t have the new Hero stamps.

using hearts in a different way….maybe this card works?!

Last year,  I saw this technique somewhere…I used one of the small flower embossing folders on the edge of the heart and then a little bit of a larger A2 size embossing folder for the words on the heart.
