EASEL CARDS

Good Thursday morning....today I am showing off my new Easel Cards that I created. These were super easy to create. What better way to enjoy a birthday card than to have them sit up at a vertical angle all the time..my next project is to make them a little larger now that I know I can make them in any size I choose. And of course they fold down to fit nice & neat inside of an envelope...hope you are getting the crafting bug going on in your head..wow a pun...that is what the "Cricut" is......a bug (lol)..anywho going to do some more cards...until next time "Keep Your Mind Creating"

Gate Fold Card

Good morning fellow crafters...yesterday after viewing You Tube I was inspired to make a GATE FOLD card.... again as I mentioned before I have quite a few birthday cards to make so as I make somthing new I make a couple & post one of them for my blog..this card was soo simple it was unreal how quick it took shape. The front of the card is measured 3 3/4x 3 3/4 (after folded) and the outside card is 7 1/4 with just the right side folded in to fit the inside of the smaller card...if you want exact measurements go to you tube...the person demostrating is wonderful...I used DCWV paper for my card and decided to add some solid cardstock blue/white to highlight the card, I thought the lime green sheer ribbon would add the magic touch, a couple of "Got Flowers" minatures set it off. I hope this will inspire you to create a few Gate Fold cards yourself...until next time..Keep Your Mind Creating!!!!

We've all heard of a Bear Hug, well this is a Monkey Hug..Isn't it cute..again I was having a great time with my Copics..it would be great to send this to someone who is in need a hug..this elephant is really enjoying the show of affection (lol) ...well I guess you are probably a little shocked to see so many postings in such a short amount of time...it's just I have had to adjust to not doing my crafts...and I guess I missed it soo much that I decided nothing was more important to me than doin my crafts so there you have it, so from this day forward you will see more of my creations coming to you..

If I'd Known you were coming!!!

Do you remember that old saying...If I'd known you were coming...I would have baked you a cake (lol) I really like this card..hmmm I just might keep it for my stash..I am on a mission to supply my mom & and my son with some cards to have on hand to give out..I also have a BFF that I have not sent cards to in a long time, and I have a favorite cousin that I send some of my cards to, but the problem with cuz is she doesn't want to send them out she wants to keep them for herself (LOL)..but again..this one is adorable
