Birthday Gift Pocket...

I am loving these gift pocket cards!! In case you missed the other one I did you can find the tutorial by Rach here.

This is what I created for my hubby's grandma for her birthday. It was the perfect size for a metal decoration I bought for her. It has a crystal on it that when the light hits it you can see a rainbow of colors! Super neat!

Used some scrap paper and ribbon. Glittered up these gorgeous butterflies I got from my pal Annmaree and they added the perfect touch! I couldn't believe how well the colors matched my paper...absolutely perfecto!!! :)

Challenges:
C.R.A.F.T - wedding or birthday
Corrosive - birthday
Flutterby Wednesday - Use a fairy, butterfly or angel
Simon Says - birthday/celebrations

Happy Birthday Sunset

This is a birthday card I made for my dad. The trees are from a Stampin' Up set and they look very similar to a view you get from the new house we are building...my dad works out there everyday my hubby does so I thought this would be a special card from us.

Challenges:
Whoopsi Daisy - As you like it
Corrosive - Birthday
Crafty Creations - Create your own background

MIA...

Sorry that I have been MIA lately. The last few weeks I have been chasing my tail around and it has been hard to keep up with everything. Just wanted you all to know I have not forgotten about you and I will hopefully be able to post something tomorrow providing I don't have to work.

Thanks for hanging in there and waiting on me! :)
