Personalize It

I had a customer ask me to make a couple of personalized cards for her. Here is the first one. The turtle is from Create a Critter. The base and the letters are from Birthday Bash.

Die Cuttin’ Divas- anything goes

For the second one I made this little dog card using a Wild Rose Studio stamp from Milton & Co. I had my first Copic start showing signs of running out of ink. Such a sad day. E30. It was a good thing too I guess since I switched things up and tried a different combo- E42, E31, E55, E35. He looks a little blotchy in the picture but it’s really not. I’m just not the best photographer.

I believe we have guests coming over for dinner tonight so I’m off to clean like a mad women. Thanks for swinging on by!

I’ve had this rainbow Sassafras paper forever. Of course when I was trying to make this card yesterday I couldn’t find it for the life of me. After pulling out every patterned paper I own and going through them one by one I finally found it. It’s perfect for this cute little leprechaun from Simply Charmed. The pot of gold on the inside is also from Simply Charmed and the card shape is from Campin’ Critters. The stamped face is from Peachy Keen.

Today is the beginning of another 2 week long challenge at 7 Kids College Fund challenge blog. This time we are hosting a color challenge. Use the colors pink, red, and white. I used ribbon Tilda for my card. If you haven’t noticed Tilda’s are really starting to grow on me. They are so much fun to color. Anyway, come on over and join in the challenge. I get to go take my 4 year old for her Kindergarten shots now. Wish me luck! She hasn’t been since she was little and didn’t understand what was taking place.

Tilda with Arrow

Love this Tilda from the new Sweet Crazy Love collection. I was excited to finally get a chance to color her up. I pinned a beautiful card with this same Tilda that used this sentiment and borrowed it. I think it works well.

Tilda has stickles on her hair bows and the bottom ruffle of her dress though the photos don’t show it well. I do love to stickle everything and anything. Glitter is such a fabulous invention!
