I'm very happy with the way this card turned out.  It was created for our adopted child in India, Ajaya, to celebrate Easter.  Made from the Springtime Box Cards kit from SVG Cuts.


Cards I made for Valentine's Day for my grandchildren in Missouri.  They are all from the Hearts Aflame kit from SVG Cuts.  I used masculine colors for the boys.  Even the teenagers liked them!

I have really enjoyed the Tommy Paper Pack - making cards with it in our last two classes!
I scraplifted this card idea from one of my card-making idols, Lisa Stenz, and changed it up just a bit by rounding all corners and adding stars and brads.  Topped it off with a baker's twine accent around the side.

Daisy White cardstock
Tommy Paper Pack
Star Punch
Exclusive Ink: Outdoor Denim
Cricut AP Cartridge to cut the seniment banner
