Some Cards Creations to Share

First photo up is of my Christmas stamps which I have set out on shelves. I needed to have inspiration around in plain view to be creative when I start making Christmas cards. I also decorated with a Christmas theme to put me in the Christmas mood. Next photo I posted a Thankyou card I created.
This card I created for Mother's Day.

Another Mother's Day card I created. With this one I cut out a flower I found on a gift card.

What Is A Greeting Card?

It's a little piece of paper that tells someone you care.

It can be a ray of sunshine.

It can be a wish or a prayer.

It can simply say "I love you" or just say I understand.

It can be a little visit or the clasp of someone's hand.

It can be a word of comfort when someone's heart is sad.

It can be a smile or chuckle making someone's heart feel glad.

It can keep folks close together even though they're far apart.

It can show someone you're thankful from the bottom of your heart.

It can travel any distance in all kinds of weather too.

And it does the something magic that some big things never do.

Yes, it's just a piece of paper and it costs no big amount.

But it prooves that old saying, "It's the little things that count."

The Bird Card

This is the bird card I made for Hero Arts contest they ran last week. But I didn't get it finished in time for the judging. :(

I got a new Fiskers Border Punch this past Sunday at Joann Fabrics store. It was on sale. love it. I was going to get the Martha Stewart border punch at Michaels but I took it out the package and tried to punch with it and it would not punch the card stock paper that I had in the car. So I took it back in and returned it. So I got bottles of glitter instead. I finally found a Uniball Signo white pigment ink pen for 2.99 at the local scrapbook store called Memory Lane Pages.

I looked for a white Sharpie but no luck. I was looking for a bird stamp for my Hero Arts card entry but in all the stores around me I didn't find one. I know I could get one online but I really don't want to pay s/h if I can help it. So I used the template they had on their blog. The card had to have at least one Hero Arts stamp and I used the Happy Birthday tag stamp from Message Tags Set. I stamped it in different colors to choose which one looked best with everything else.
