Breakfast Anyone

I saw a card on Pinterest and loved the idea of a bacon and eggs card so made me one. I tried to make a plate but had gotten my eggs to big so just went with kraft paper. I free handed the whites of the eggs and the yolks are from a punch. The bacon was stamped with a wood stamp, from Heartfelt Creations and then colored to look as much like bacon as I could get it. The sentiment is from Stampin Up called Yummy. I've had this set for years but think this might be the first time I've used it. I added glossy accents around the edges of the whites and  the yolks to look like oil. Might have went a bit far on that part. Thanks for stopping by. Sharon

Mother's Day Card

This is a really simple card. The balloons were made with a punch. The stamps are some that has no name on them. The twine is from Stampin Up. I've had the cloud paper for years. Thanks for stopping by.

Tulip Card

Well I call this die a tulip but who knows if it really is or not. It's a Memory Box die. The grass is also a Memory Box die. The folder is a Cuttlebug folder. I got the ribbon as a thank you gift from ordering from some place but don't know where. The clear circles fell from somewhere onto my work station so thought it was a sign and used them and added liquid pearls in the centers. I added crystal effect on the flowers and grass. Thanks for stopping by. Sharon

Burlap Mom Card

I've been sick so haven't been making any cards but this morning decided that I needed to make a few Mother's Day cards, since I'm almost back to normal. These are bits and pieces that I had laying around. The stamp didn't have a name on it. I stamped it and then punched it out with a heart punch and popped it up with a pop dot. The square is from Spellbinder's and behind that is the burlap. The background was made with the Basket weave  folder from Spellbinder's. I had to add the flourish gems on the sides. Thanks for stopping by. Sharon

Mother

The happy mother's day is a stamp from that I just got but didn't write the name on anything so don't know where I got it or what it's called. The 2 ovals are Memory Box Dies. The background paper is some that Missi picked up for me and I colored the circles in with a clear Stardust glitter pen. Thanks for stopping by. Sharon

Mom

This stamp is called Mother of Mine by Stampin Up. The die it's stamped on it from Memory Box. The other die is from Spellbinder's. The background was made with the Retro Swirls by M Press. I added liquid pearls around on the card. Thanks for stopping by. Sharon

Spring Daisies

I made this card for the challenge at Joan's Gardens. You can make 2 cards this week. The rules are * Use yellow, black and white. * Use a frame. * Use something to do with spring ( parasol, umbrella, etc.) * You must use something sold at Joan's Gardens on your card. I used 3D M-Bossibilities Basketweave and Delightful Daisies for my backgrounds. The oval is the neg. part of the die from Spellbinders. The daisies  are from Memory Box called Bubble Daisy Border. I cut this out twice and then cut the 2 daisies out from the border and put them at the top. The butterfly is from Cheery Lynn called Exotic Mini. The umbrella is from Memory Box called Petite Umbrella, I cut this out of black and then yellow and pieced them together and ran the top part of the umbrella through the Retro Swirls by M Press. I added pearls just about everywhere on this card. Prayers going out to Joan who is having total knee replacement surgery tomorrow morning. Thanks for stopping by. Sharon

I made this card for the challenge at Joan's Gardens. You can enter 2 cards this week. * Use yellow, black and white. * Use a frame. * Use something to do with spring ( Parasol, umbrella,etc.) * You must use something sold at Joan's Gardens on your card. The frame is from the Spellbinder's set A2 Fancy Weave, I used white cardstock and then colored it direct from pad to paper with 2 colors of yellow and a bit of white to tone it down a bit. The background is the Cuttlebug folder Tiny Bubbles. The umbrella is from Memory Box called Petite Umbrella. I added the TH Distress Marker Picket Fence to make the dots on the umbrella. I added pearls. I'm pretty sure that you can buy everything on this card at Joan's Gardens. Thanks for stopping by. Sharon
