September Cards!

Well, this morning I got a little creative and made a couple of cards!

The first one is made from papers from Three Bugs in a Rug (Spring).  So cute!  The top paper is chalked in pink to stand out a little more.  I purposely left the sentiment off as this card can be use for many occasions and I'll add it when needed!

The next card is made using the Tea Bag Folding technique.  I wasn't looking to make a card from this technique but my sister was making one from a different fold and it was hilarious!  For those of you who know me, my sister and I connect through Skype as she is 3000 km away from me!  Anyway, it wasn't going so well for her so while she was taking a break I surfed the net and found an easier one to do!  Check it out here.

  I love orange and blue together.  I also used Martha Stewart's lace punch on here as well.

Here is a side view of the tea bag fold so you can see how it's dimensional.  How cool is that!!!!

Hope you like them!!  oh, and only 89 days til Christmas.....fa la la la laaaaaaaa

UPDATE:

My sister figured out the tea bag folding "medallion" and created this beautiful card for our brother's birthday!!  Way to go, sis.  It's awesome!

Here is the 2nd card my sister made using the technique I used further up the page.  Beautiful paper selection!  This could become a new fav technique of ours!!

Welcome Little One

Had this really cute little dinosaur stamp and wasn't sure what to do with it, but after playing around for a bit the above card is what I came up with. The embossed circles were made on the cuttlebug (I did see this cuttlebug part on a card created by another lady, on a site that I just can't remember off the top of my head.....thank you to her though!). The two lines above the circles were embossed on the Top Score (pic below). If you don't have one of those babies (AND the Enveloper) I strongly urge you to get one. I don't know how I ever created without one before.

Awesome tutorial on how to use the Top Score and Enveloper HERE
