the one on the right for anniversary

what to get someonefor their 60th wedding anniversary???

Cards of course if you are a card maker. Although I have to say I did not plan on giving them anything until my sister asked what I was giving Aunt Shirley and Uncle Jim...my jaw dropped and said nothing. But cards are small, nice and useful.
I did put a little more thought into these and finished off the inside of each card.

home sweet home

good morning to all,  My daughter's family moved into their new home last week after a transfer to Washington State. I did see a card similar to this one somewhere on line but not sure where. I added flowers to put some color into the card.  and yes my cricut create did cut these tiny flowers.

birthday card

good morning to all, I also made a 4 1/4 by 5 1/2  of Kelly's cards.    I am going to try welding different shapes together and see what I can come up with.

mine turned out square and her looks like a 5.5 x 4.25     Will try that size next to see if I can get it down in size.  next time I will have to remember to finish the inside before I put the flowers on, they got in the way being bulky.

spring flowers for Marcia

good morning again, I have a big pot of stew in the oven and chili on the stove top simmering, Man is it starting to smell good in the house.  My pastor is coming over for a donation I have for the Lent dinner coming up Wed.  I sure hope he doesn't get any lunch ideas because it won't be ready. Anyway, I am going with spring flowers from walk in my garden, and the grass I found in Kate's abcs

Deconstructed Sketch #109

Hi all,  I saw this sketch this morning and I thought of another way to use Martha Stewart punch. It is a bit time consuming punching both sides of a 1 1/2 strip of paper and getting it to line up just right but I think for these cards it works well

 

now all I have to do is figure out where to post this!
