Advent Calendars

Made the girls advent calendars for Christmas from the StampUp 2x2 boxes.

The boxes are in a 10 X 10 decorated box to store them and keep them organized and I added each girls name to the top. 

It was fun and a challenge to come up with a design for each day. Lots of punching and embellishments!

It was a labor of LOVE......and a start of a new tradition for Christmas.

Birthday Card

This is a card I did for a co-worker.....

Cora's 8th Birthday card

I can't believe that my little grand daughter has turned 8!!  She wanted to have a cupcake decorating party so I had to put a cupcake on this years card.

She loves pop-ups and owls so I had to add some of those as well....

All in all I'm happy with the way this card turned out.

Wedding Card

This is a card I made for my nephew's wedding. I tried to match the invitation that his bride help design (which is posted below)

This is the invitation his wife Lori designed. Her colors were Mint and Coral so we used Crisp Cantaloupe and Pistachio Pudding.

I punched out flowers and other elements and let her go to design a card she loved. She did a beautiful job.
