Wow, Thanksgiving was the last time I posted anything. Time sure does fly when you're working! I've taken some pictures today that I'll post of Valentines Day Cards that I've made. And of course they are for my two very special guys!
Mike gets this card...It's a Tri Fold Shutter Card we did in club. I found the pattern on Split Coast and there is a tutorial by
Bonnie Szwalkiewicz. Thank you Bonnie! We used the new paper from the mini called "Sending Love". Beautiful paper, it sparkles and shimmers so pretty. It's hard to make a card you don't like when you use this paper. I also used several stamp sets on this card for the flowers. I used stamp sets "With all my heart" from the new mini, "Love you much" from the big catalog, and I used "Greenhouse Garden" for the third flower. The inside was made with the heart punch and cutting a square for the sentiment.
My next card is for my little grandson Brady. I used the new set "I {Heart}Hearts". By the way if you buy this set Stampin' Up! is donating a portion of the sales to the Haiti Disaster Relief. Just click on the "Follow Me" button at the right to shop from my website. Your order will be delivered right to your door! I also used the Wheel that goes along with this stamp set for an edging to my red background.
I then used the build a bear stamp set and "Sending Love" specialty paper and the build a bear paper for the little guys pants. I used the "Pinking hearts boarder" punch on this card which is a new punch from the Mini Catalog also. I made them valentine cookies to go along with their cards. I hope they liked them and I hope you do too! Leave me a comment or two and let me know what you think!
0) Oh well, I wanted to post a picture of Brady in his new car! Remember he is a year old now. He needs his own wheels! This little car is like a big slipper. He sits down in it and he doesn't go anywhere but it honks and sounds like a real engine from the steering wheel. It has a side mirror that he likes to chew on and a key that fits in the ignition. We had so much fun with him when he was here this last time and he's such a little ham. He can be crying one minute and you bring the camera out and he's all smiles. Have a good week, I have to finish my Christmas Cards and get ready for my Christmas Card classes.
made for him.

ell I'm not an organized person and I knew I had more of this paper so I had to look for the folder it's in. Like always it wasn't where it's supposed to be. Well I found it and I fell in love with it all over again.
