Always In My Heart Card

This is the challenge for Sunday Night.  The card is on Pg 114 of Wishes.  I was not crazy about the design when I first saw it but I quickly figured out what to do.  I wanted to try a technique that I recently found in a book that I was reading where they made a heart out of flower petals.  I used a large just blooms.  I have to say it made a cute heart. 

Thinking of you valentine.

This one is one that looked better in my mind.  I think I will try this one again with a little more contrast.  What do you think?

I think I need more chocolate.  What woman doesn't?

Shadow

This is my new addition to the family.  Shadow was my mom's dog.  My mom passed away with Leukemia this past summer.  This dog was her pride an joy.  She joined my family Thanksgiving weekend.

You Rock Valentine!

I know it has been a while since I have posted.  My computer room has no heat and it is above 0 FINALLY!!!

This card got the approval from both of my 13 year old girls.  They said "cool".

I used a sizzix heart and embossed in black from the "you rock" stamp set.  The border was made with a border punch but coud just as easily be made with circle punches. 

Another Birthday Card

This card pattern came from the originals book.  Actually I liked the picture so much that I added swirls just like the book.  I think this color combo is real cheerful.

Invitation

I tried and tried to scan this one but every time it was crooked.  Oh well you will still see the invitation for my girls' birthday.

Gift Card Holder

I got this pattern out of the November edition of Card Maker Magazine.  I made this one using Boom Di Ada pattern paper Hollyhock, and Garden Green Card stock and of course the CTMH Just Blooms Autumn.    My little girls (twins) will be 13 next saturday.  I think this is a great way to present a gift card.  Invest in this magazine becuase it had lots of great ideas for gift card holders.
