Iris Folding

I love iris folding.  I think it is so cool, though it is complicated to do.  I hadn't posted this until now since it was a swap that I had sent to a friend in Australia.  I thought the the ribbon was perfect since it says Splish Splash.  I had fun making this "bikini".

Christmas Gift Card

This is a card that I have made for Christmas with a Magnolia Santa image.  On the inside of the card I have placed two different kinds of folders.  This card will be perfect to give a teenage a blank CD on the left side and an iTunes gift card on the right, make a CD with romantic music to place in the left side and a gift card to a wine store or grocery store on the right so they can make a romantic dinner, or put a restaurant menu in the left pocket and a gift card to that restaurant in the right pocket.  I believe the possibilities are endless.  This would make a great gift to give at Christmas, or any other time depending on the design you place on the front of the card.  I have so much fun making this card.  I will decorate the inside more once I decide which of the above I am going to do!

Inchie Card

Here is a card I made for an Inchie Card Swap.  I love making the inchies because it allows me to use up scraps. I have been making a lot of holiday cards, so look for some being posted here.

Pinwheel Card

Here is a card I made for Fall with the pinwheel technique.  I just love the Fall papers that are out right now.  The dsp on the left is a paper that I purchased.  The paper on the right is made from a stamp and gold emossing powder. 

Halloween Card

Here is a card that I made with a card kit that I received from a swap.  I added some twigs to it because I thought it needed a little something.  I love the feathers on this card, they really make the card.  I have to tell you that ever since I purchased the bow easy, I have been able to make perfect bows for all of my cards.  That is such a great little device.  I love the background DSP, it is so cute.  You can't really see it here, but it has a lot of writing on it that is pretty cute.  I decorated the inside of the card as well.  I will have to take a picture of the inside to show also.

Mystery Swap Card

This card was made with items someone sent me in a "Mystery Swap", which is a swap where items are sent and then you need to make a card from them.  These are fun to do since you never know what you are getting and it is like a puzzle to put it all together. 

Harley Card

I have been so swamped at work that I have not been on here much.  I am posting a card that I made for my husband.  He rides a Harley and I love to ride on the back.  This stamp just made me think of us.  I had to use black, orange and gold since they are Harley colors.
