Thank You Berry Much!

Posted on August 8, 2011 by apieceoflifespie

I had to make a slew of cards the other night and I came up with an easy yet cute card that went super quick. I may add this to my Christmas gift packs. I got the original idea from My Pink Stamper in one of her tutorial videos making a cherry card and I have run with it since. Thank you MPS! If you have not had a chance to check out her videos, they are worth pouring yourself a cup of joe, adding a little “rat poison” (that is what I call my favorite creamers I tell my hubby that I am just taking off the bad years while I pour that into my cup of joe) and sit a spell and enjoy getting some neat ideas and tips.

Quick Cards and Fun Cards

Posted on July 16, 2011 by apieceoflifespie

I am on a roll with making cards this weekend. I made one for a friend that just got an amazing job at 3M and in this economy, that is something to celebrate and I am attending a double birthday tomorrow for a close family friend’s little girls where the theme is Princess Party.

I have to admit I am still stuck on the faux chipboard concept I learned from My Pink Stamper, so you will see that implemented in the princess themed cards. Plus I needed any excuse to break out my new “Once Upon A Time” Cricut cartridge.

Fun Way to Say Thank You, Happy Birthday or Just Because!

I just borrowed something from a friend and wanted to make sure to let her know that I was really appreiative of what she loaned me. I made this quick card and added a little sweet treat to it as a THANK YOU! I got the card idea from one of my favorite craft bloggers, Pink Stamper.
