Wedding Weekend

Today I thought that I would share with you a wedding card that I made for my cousin's wedding this past weekend (Congratulations Stephanie and Jeremy!!) The wedding cake image is actually a Vellum sticker that I purchased a while back at JoAnns...Don't you just love those shiny rhinestones on the frosting!! Since the cake sticker was pink and black, I decided to use a pink/black/polka dot theme for this card...I also added some faux pearl embelishments to the card since pearls were in absolutely everything in the wedding, how cute!!

The second picture is of the inside of the card...The vellum sticker is from the same set as the wedding cake and embelished with a crystal rhinestone...I love my bling on cards!! I added the sentiment to the inside of the card and finished off the front with some pink stitched ribbon...I hope they liked it...Thanks for stopping by!!

Penguin Card

Today I thought that I would share with you a card I made with the penguin stamp from Stampin up's Wild About You stamp set...I added the sentiment "sending you a warm hug" and secretly wished for cooler temperatures here...Not only is it hot, but we are also deep in the middle of Hurricane season!! I used my scallop and circle punch and popped the penguins up using foam mounting tape...I also used my glitter pen and added a touch of glitter to all the penguin bellies...

I used some black and white polka dot ribbon around the middle of the card and added some clear dew drops to the sentiment to make it stand out a little bit more....I also used my polka dot embossing folder and cuddlebug to make the background...As for the inside of the card...I mounted white cardstock on black cardstock and stamped one more penguin...I glued all this to the inside of the card and ta da...here is the finished card...thanks for stopping by!!

Memo Boards

Today I thought that I would post about some memo boards that I made as presents for 2 very special little birthday girls... Not only were they super easy and fun to make, but they are also one of a kind and can be designed to match any color scheme or theme!! How much fun!! Once the memo boards were complete, I wrapped them up using some fun pink polka dot cello and matching raffia for the bow...I also stamped up some "wild about you" birthday cards to match...Have a good day !!

Here are the supplies for the memo board:

1 canvas, 1 yard of cotton fabric, 3 yards of ribbon, 5 buttons, 2 yards of trim, apholstery needle, tapestry thread, and cotton batting
