Snail Tails

I used the Cricut Paisley Cartridge and the first cut on it, the Snail.  I loaded the shape into my Gypsy and made it into a folded card.  The front circles have been run through my Cuttlebug.



Face is from the Peachy Keen Simple Sallies Face Assortment PK-531

Because the glasses on the stamped face are a little short I just extended  them a tad
and added Glossy Accents to make the glasses shine.
A little bling for the necklace and a hairbow to complete her outfit!







Here three more I created in the same way:
Face from the Peachy Keen Everyday Character Face Assortment PK-490
Ribbon is Martha Stewart
Face from the Peachy Keen Everyday Character Face Assortment PK-490
Bling is Recollections
Face from the Peachy Keen Everyday Character Face Assortment PK-490
Hat is K and Company

I uploaded my Gypsy file to 4Shared if you are interested you can retrieve it here.

Happy Anniversay

Colored with my Copic markers
(I only have a few so blending is challenging sometimes)

The printed image was sent to me to play with by Karen O'Connor
(You Tube - Scrapaway1)
This became my youngest one's anniversary card.
Flower  is from Studio 18


Bottom punch is EK Success - Graceful Heart
So many thanks to Sharon at Gramma's House of Cards
I was so drawn to her cards and how she did them, including finishing the insides
that I just had to try them myself!  Be sure and check out her blog.

Hey Dude

In a paper swap with Karen (scrapaway1 on YouTube) she included
a few stamped Magnolia's for me to try.
This darling guy was one of them so I did a card
for my Grandson's birthday.

No bows, ribbons or frills, I tried to keep it pretty
plain and boyish



Paper line is Pulse Collection from Priam

Hugs

I did a card class at the local scrapbook store. Dandylion Wishes
and used the Stella Roses Gertie 6x6 pad

I did a bunch of cards showing how you could use this one pad
of paper, one set of Stickers and a little pagination to make
a multitude of cards.

The butterflies are a Martha Stewart Punch
The little dots have Glossy Accents on them
and the Stickers are SRM

Card Two - same paper line
 The little rosette and brad are also the same line, Stella Rose Gertie
 Sticker SRM - Paper Punch Martha Stewart

Card Three -
 Fiskars paper punch


Card Four -



Card Five -



Card Six -
Paper Punches EK Success
Brad - My Mind's Eye
Pearls - Recollections

Card Seven -
Glimmer misted flower
Mat - Sizzix

Card Eight -
Flower -Tattered Flower Sizzix Tim Holtz


Card Nine -
Flower - Sizzix Tattered Flower Tim Holtz
Brad - My Mind's Eye


Card Ten -
Pattern for flower petals was just an oval I drew and cut out of heavy card stock for pattern


There were at least 5 more cards made from this 6x6 paper pad, plus several full sheets left over.
A little paper, some stickers and just an afternoon playing can result in a whole bunch of cards.

Congratulations
