Christmas in July

All of my Christmas cards should be done, but there always seem to be on last card I have to make.
lets hope this is the last one!

so I tryed it again Big Ben!

My daughter and son-in law were over seas when they go engaged 17 years ago, they saw Big Ben almost daily while there. so this was sent for their anniversary card.

lots of layers, little fairy

Hi all, this one was made to see if I could do it with all of the layers it has and trying to keep them in the right order I did it!

these are from the snow globe earlier but I customized to fit a 4.25 x 5.5 card.
getting better at getting around the design space, if you are a cricut owner, I found that You Tube is great for information on different ins and outs of the DS, made 3 of these
snowflakes are peachkeen stamps

fancy cut tulips

while I was at my sisters she showed me some cards that she was giving to a woman in charge of hospice volunteers. If I understood right, they have volunteer card makers make cards for the volunteer caregivers in hospice, not sure how they give them out but I am making doubles and saving them for her when I see my sister to be part of this great organization. I did have to cover my handmade by.... up because it is suppose to be anonymous.
and that is all I will be sharing with this blog about this, not sure if they will get these because they are over sized, but I will be saving some for them in the future.

Made with my sister

I had a baptism to go to half way into my free week.
It was something I was looking forward to since the baby was born, anyway I was suppose to stay with my daughter, son-in-law and the kids for one night. turns out Aubrey was sick with influenza B and there was no way I could stay with them and go see a tiny baby, so I stayed with my sister for the 2 nights. It was great! I needed a time away from home even for a short time.
She has punches and not a cricut so I punched out 10 of these boarded cards for each of us and finished them at home with the flowers cut from my cricut.
