Oldies, but Goodies

Here are some cards I have made awhile back, but still really like them.

Paper Bag Album

Today I am sharing a paper bag album. I have been holding on to this until the recipient of the album received it. I didn't want to spoil it for them. I the picture before the last you see a yellow tag sticking out of a pocket. That is a pocket for a gift card.

Birthday Card

I made a birthday card for my friend's birthday and wanted to share it with all of you. It took me a long time to do some special touches, but she is very special to me, so it was worth it.

 I tea dyed the tag, refer to my post on tea dying to learn how to do this really cool technique.











This tag was 1st stamped with versafine and then Tea dyed, it left an amazing background image.

 This is the Birthday Card. I used a really pretty bronze glitter tape on the tag. I stamped Happy Birthday on the tea dyed tag. The flower on the top right with the white center was hand stained with a bronze metallic paint that I made a wash with. It came out a perfect tan/taupe color.

I antiqued the card by using a sponge dauber and brown distressing ink. The paper on the right is the newspaper I tea dyed and stamped.

 I made a special box card for the chunky card

Newest Cards

Sharing my newest cards, I made these for the father of my friend. I lined the envelopes. I don't do this normally. My cards run $5 per card and includes an envelope.

It's been 6 months

Wow I can't believe it's been six months since I last posted. Since than blogger changed it's set up, so it took me about 20 minutes to figure out what happened here. Since Dec I have had allot of changes and now life is settling down again. Let me post a few pics of what I have been making since December.

 This is a scarf I made for my granddaughter, She looks so adorable in it. The hat was made by my mother in law, which is amazing at everything that she does!

 This was a thank you card I made for a Friend

So for now that is it, I need to craft more and add more cool stuff!
