 I finished all of my Easter cards, but can't post a picture until they are received.  So., I am posting a Mother's Day card that I recently made.  I know that the recipient is not on a computer, so she will not see this.  I purchased the new Lawn Fawn Magic Iris Floral Wreath Add-on dies.  This set is actually to be used with their Magic Iris line of interactive dies.  I am not that into interactive dies, but I really liked the wreath.  I cut the wreath using SU's old Green Galore cardstock.  For the flowers, I used a variety of cardstock colors.  The center of the wreath was stamped using Lawn Fawn's Magic Spring stamp set and colored with Copic Markers.  The background paper is also from Lawn Fawn.  To complete the card, I punched the two corners with my SU Scallop Corner Punch.

Have a great week!

 We had a great weekend!  Jen and Mark visited and took time out to purchase their new house!  They will live about 40 minutes away in a gorgeous house.  Plus, they will be closer to Sydney when she heads off to college in the Fall.  Today's card was made just for them!  The images, with the exception of the branch, were all cut from previously water-colored paper scraps.  The Home Tweet Home die set from My Favorite Things was used to die cut all


of the images.  For the background, I used MFT's cloud stencil and distress ink.  Have a great day!

 Last week I posted two cards I created using MFT’s Dog House dies.  Today’s card was related using My Favorite Things’ Home Tweet Home die-namics dies. As cute as the dog house dies, my favorite is this set.  I have made a few cards, most of them I copied off the internet.  I will post others in the future, but everything about today’s card sings out happiness.  I stamped the sentiment with Versamark ink and added white embossing powder.  The only other ink I used was to sponge the edges of the cute little birds.

Have a great week!

Lately, My Favorite Things has been adding some of the cutest dies to their already great collection of dies.  A recent addition to my always growing MFT Stamps die collection is their Dog House set.  Today's cards were created using that set together with their Canine Companion and Up In The Air stamp sets.    The Dog House set includes the fence and grass dies.  For both cards, I used Distress Inks for the backgrounds.  Have a great week!
