Miracle Cards

So these are all of the cards which I was able to make just using the Miracle kit which is the 'special' this month. It is a scrapbooking set of papers, cardstock,embellishments,waxy flax, resist dimensional elements,sponges and more. It will make 2 gorgeous double layouts (4 pages). But you know me - I wanted to turn it into cards so I got out the Originals & Wishes card confidence programs and set to work. I was really happy with the finished results. This Miracle kit is available starting April 15th and costs just $19.95 - spend $40 and you can have it for $10 - spend $60 and get it for just $5!  - Hope you like them too :O)

More April Stamp of the month examples :O)

This adorable card was inspired by another CTMH consultant - Lisa Stenz - I love the way that this turned out
 Pam Jarrett inspired this one
I used the hydrangea style flowers in this one - It looks a little like a cup cake I think - so cute - I used the water color pencils to do the shading.
I am working on more - so watch this space :O)

Palatine Hill

Palatine Hill was lovely - the sun was shining and the ruins of the buildings were so interesting. The was such a lot to see and we only had a little time. I would love to go back and spend more time there :O)

Victorias Birthday Card

I love the Notebook paper - I think I could use it for every project LOL. Here is a birthday card I made for one of my best friends - Victoria. I used the bitty sparkles on the center panel and you will see how I have heavily scissor distressed the cream cardstock. I loved they way it turned out and so did she :O)

April's Class Projects

Hello everyone - have you missed me? I have had a lovely Easter weekend - power washing the deck, painting the dining room floor and gardening ready for my Brother in Law to come and visit this Friday. He is flying in from the UK so some severe tidying up needed doing!

Anyway - here are 2 of the projects that I am teaching this month;
I absolutely LOVE this paper - You rock - and I have added D1320 Shining Star where we have inked in Indian Corn Blue and then rolled the edges of the stamp in Pansy Purple. If you zoom in on the photo you will see that we are dry embossing vertical lines into the white cardstock base. The pattern for this card can be found in the Wishes card confidence program - page 97 with an additonal idea on page 43.

Another card we are making is this cute card featuring the April stamp of the month - D1409 Flower Pot
Markers add a fun look to the coloring in of the items - a cute Thank you card for any occasion. This time I have used the reverse of the Bella paper pack B&T.
Hope you like them :O)
