HSIAO HUI'S GET WELL CARD ROCKS! HAVE YOU SEEN THIS?

Here's a really cool and elegant card Hsiao hui Lin made for me during the week I was out recovering.   It's gorgeous.  She took SU!'s embossed printed card stock and bleached and painted it.  So cool!  She used NEW SU! oval framelits to die cut the ovals including the Champagne glimmer paper that is so pretty and shimmery!  All are adhered to card stock embossed with the NEW HONEYCOMB emossing folder by SU!  Such a pretty card.  Thanks Hsiao hui!

LINDA KINCAID'S NEVER ENDING CARD - BEAUTIFUL

I have to share this amazing and wonderful NEVER ENDING card made by my sweet friend Linda Kincaid.  This card just keeps opening up to different designs and sentiments.  I wish I had videotaped her showing our craft/stamp group how it works, because it's so cool.  You can find directions by just doing a search in your browser for the NEVER ENDING card.  Of course, it takes someone as smart and crafty as Linda to figure it out and make it easy for us.  I'll be CASEing this card design very soon and hoping to teach it at one of my next classes.  Thanks LINDA for thanking me with this BEAUTIFUL CARD.



The details that went into this card are really amazing and intricate.  Linda always pays attention to detail and adds the little extra touches to make the recipient - in this case me - feel so special!
And here is the envelope for the card.  Of course Linda remembered that my favorite alphabet stamp set is by SU! and is the BIG DEAL stamp set.

I also love the pennants from Pennant Parade by SU! which actually are dimensionalized on the card.

MUST SEE CARD TREK - THE NEXT GENERATION

I love this video.  It's pretty short but great idea.  Must see!




PRINT POETRY AND BLOOMIN MARVELOUS SU!

Here is a NEW card I made using PRINT POETRY series paper stack from the NEW SU! OCCASIONS catalog.  I also wanted to share that the BLOOMIN MARVELOUS set is where the butterflies are from and the MIRACLES HAPPEN.  I love that script font.  This card really is so pretty in person.  By the way, BLOOMIN MARVELOUS stamp set can be earned for FREE from SU! during saleabration.  Here I embossed the butterflies and the sentiment on the designer paper with gold embossing powder.

This PRINTS POETRY paper pack is so pretty!  I think it's a great buy and a great sampling of NEW papers to try and to create with.

Smashing designs in a fun pad. For card fronts, mounting photos, anything! 48 sheets in ea. pad: 4 ea. of 12 double-sided designs. Ea. sheet: 4-1/2" x 6-1/2". Crumb Cake, Gumball Green, Midnight Muse, Primrose Petals, Raspberry Ripple, Summer Starfruit



 The inside of the card and the envelope is inspirational, also stamped with SU! stamps.  The little butterflies are from a really cute tiny block set by SU! called ITTY BITTIES.  This is a set of 56 stamps that are tiny and fit inside the smaller SU! pop can tops.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR SWEET FRIEND LISA

Today is my dear friend Lisa Chatterjee's Birthday!  I hope she has a good one.  I made this card specifically with her in mind using SU! DSP FAN FAIR that I absolutely love.  This particular piece of DSP had the Eiffel Tower which Lisa really likes.  I embellished it with SU! adhesive backed rhinestones and crystal effects.

I did use a bottle cap and the BRAND NEW COLLAGE CURIOS SU! stamp set.  The envelope is decorated with NEW SALEABRATION STAMP SETS that I earned for FREE from SU!
 HAPPIEST BIRTHDAY DEAR FRIEND LISA!

MORE HEARTS A FLUTTER

I have a lot of thank you's I'm making and mailing.  I've had such kind friends taking care of me that I can't let my gratitude go unnoticed.   Here's one of the thank you cards I made for Katie, who was my secret santa.  She gave me some really cool gifts, including some things that are homemade.  I used Hearts A Flutter and the coordinating SU! framelits.  I love this bundle and I saved 15% by ordering the stamp set and framelits together.


The Thanks so much is from the OH HELLO stamp set, which is in the SU! Occasions catalog.

Here's the inside of my card.

Katie, if you are reading this, know again how grateful I am for all of the gifts you gave me.  You are so talented and you chose some cool items for the non homemade gifts.

This digital page actually is from a pattern you can print to make your own cards.  I just happened to incorporate it into a scrapbook page.  This is the original card.  It is from the HAPPY HELLO SIMPLY SENT CARD KIT.  You recieve 8 printed die cut cards, 4 say hello and 4 are blank.  There are 8 printed die cut envelopes with Daffodil Delight pattern on flap.  There are 24 daffodil delight card stock stickers, 8 basic gray cardstock stickers strips, 8 pieces of precut basic gray twine EXCLUSIVE to this kit and 8 adhesive backed rhinestones.  And the GOOD NEWS is that this is a FREE KIT! 

and you can EARN THIS KIT in addition to the FREE DISC of DIGITAL CONTENT.


I mailed this card off to my coworker who is recovering from surgery and who is receiving ongoing therapy.  Thought that the colors were so cheery.
