Gifts Received

Ok so in with many of the wonderful swaps I have received varies gifts. They have been so great I wanted to share with you some of them. Since I live in the United States Texas to be exacted I don’t think we get this catalog here in the states at least I have not seen them at the stores. This is what Jude has sent to me:

You should pop on over to her blog and take a look she occasionally has Blog Candy posted and she is helping her mother’s nursing home raise money by selling her cards. http://crafts-international.blogspot.com/

Here are the gifts that I have received from Tracy!

I love both of these gifts they actually have some things within them that I am already thinking of ideas for upcoming cards. I have a wedding coming up that I need a card for and I think this picture will work so pretty for a wedding card. Along with the embellishments that Jude sent to me I think the card would look so pretty.You Girls sure do know how to Spoil a girl!! Thanks so much I will defiantly be posting what I come up with.

Summer Time Fun

Here is my Summer time card I sent this card to Syn along with my Fashion Glam ATC card. I embossed the cut outs and used watercolor paper so that when I used the watercolor it would not bleed.

Recycle and Recues

I just had to share these with you. This is something I came up with out of the Blue. These are Aluminum bottle caps that I turned in to flowers. The back is the caps and I punched out flowers and curled the tips and put the flowers over lapped inside. They came out so cute, lastly I finished them off with leaves on the backs.

4th of July Cards

These cards were from the swap on Scrappers Delight on Ning. The card on top was the card I made and sent to Tracy the one on the bottom is what I received from Syn. Since Tracy is from Scotland I thought I would incorporate the Colors of Our Texas Flag in with my card. It works perfect since they are fourth of July colors too.

Birthday Greetings

These cards are made for family. One was from my husband’s grandmother and the other was for my husband’s Aunt. I think they both came out very cute!! I really enjoyed making them both.

The next card I made for my husband’s mother. Shush don’t tell her it’s posted here. Her birthday is still yet to come. Have you seen the New Version/ Dell commercial and they sing the Lollipop Lollipop on. Well I was a bit inspired to make this card from that. She used Apple though but she will not know that it was inspired by a dell commercial.
