BEST MOM NOTE CARD SET

Hello all!

Today I am sharing a note card set made using an A7 "Brown Bag" envelope.
It has 3 matching notecards.


A brown bag envelope, a sheet of kraft cardstock, glue, and some embellishments are all you need to make ths set. Picture #2 shows the envelope flap. You need to glue the flap as if you were sealing an envelope.
After the envelope is sealed off, cut 1-3/4" off the top or bottom making sure your width is 5-1/4".   TIP: After you cut the top, snip 1/8" off the bottom part. This will ensure your base fits the top, if not, it will be a very tight fit. Remember to glue that side close. It should now be a 5-1/8" instead 5-1/4".
You will also need to cut the notecards and some strips of cardstock for the top. I cut the note cards at 4" x 4-1/2" and the two strips at 5-1/2 x 1-1/2" and 4 x 1-3/8".
The last pic shows some embellishments and the embossing plate I used for the embossing. This pic also shows the thin 1/8" brown strips I used for framing.

The embossed background looks grayish but actually is a baby blue ink color. The brown bag envelope embossed very nice. I love the geese too, they are die cuts I pieced together.

These are the note cards. The sentiment on the side is from Oprah Winfrey and it reads: "Biology is the least of what makes a mother". Fabulous. I bet many of us can truly relate to this saying.

A CAMPER FULL OF LOVE

hello all, 
i had to share the cutest camper of them all, hehe.
it is a birthday card for a valentine's born camper lover.
i used the teardrop trailer die from cottage cutz. i also used a darice die for the scalloped borders.

anyway, i know this birthday boy is going to love his camper card.
 the greeting is a mix of rub ons.

since i had to cut a few times from different papers, i used the leftover cuts to pop up the door and windows. the foam tape would have been a pita, if you know what i mean, lol. i just used it on the trailer.
i love the canopy. a darling. i just used a bit of liquid glue on the top part and followed the folds.

and now to celebrate and eat some cake.
yay!

 thanks for stopping by the hut! 

have a great day!

MADE WITH COTTAGE CUTZ DIES

just a quickie here to share a santa and a penguin i pieced together using this cottage cutz dies. i bought these dies and a few others when joann had them at 50% off. i thought it was a great deal.


the santa took took a bit of time to put together. 
lulu was really needy that day. i was trying to rush and forgot to add the tree that comes with this die, grr! lol.

the penguin was done fast.
i used white cardstock and used alcohol markers to colored them in.

i made one red and one blue.
i wanted to make the santa for most of my xmas cards but i was short on time. that was when the snowman showed up, lol.
i used one of joy clair stamps for the sentiment "good cheer".

these dies are so much fun. they reminded me when i first started crafting with sizzix dies, way before moving to cricut.

well, and this is it.

thanks so much for stopping by!
