golfing bday card

I made this for some friends little boy who is really into golf. He is just turning 4!
I saw some card similar to this on SCS and thought it would be perfect for him.
Notice my watermark is getting better? I spent some time searching for directions using PSE 7 and am getting closer to what I want it to look like.

My car got a Boo Boo


I was in a minor fender bender this afternoon. A young girl, totally not paying attention got my in the backside. I've not been in a car accident in at least 10 years! Luckily no one was hurt, except my babycar. So now we start the fun of getting it fixed and dealing with the insurance.
Great way to end my week off!!! :-(

Top note bday for Mel


Whipped up this bday card for my SD's bday.
I love Scenic route paper, it takes the guess work out of mathing up papers.
I am a bit frustrated with my watermark, I got PSE 7 and I've not found a good tutorial yet on how to make my watermark looked pretty!!!
But I think I'm getting closer! LOL!

I became Irish 12 years ago!

I married into being Irish, got the Mc... last name to prove it!!

So for this week I'll go with the St. pattys day theme. and put my sicilian/finnish roots to the side for a week. LOL

2 Quick Bday cards

I needed to make 2 quick birthday cards for some male coworkers.
I already had the Top Note sections cut and put together, from last week when i was playing with the top Note Die. All I had to do was grab some ribbon, some self adhesive buttons from my stash and stamp the image.
Quick and easy!!!

Baby duckie


I created these for a coworker expecting a baby boy soon. I used my Slice to make the duck and the word baby for the card. I made a few duckies so I used one on the inside too!!!

Happy mail day!

I got my SU paper and SU embellishment share in the mail today from Nancy R at
http://stampinat6213.blogspot.com/
She was doing a paper and embellishment share and I joined in! The paper is all so gorgeous in real life!! I may need to order all of it again!
I also joined her embellishment share, I was not thinking that the corduroy buttons would be so cute in real life! I think the pic in the SU catalog doesn't do them justice!!
Now lets see how long i let this paper just sit cause it is too cute to use!
