Graduation

I've made a lot of graduation cards this year.  Here are a couple of newer ones.

My favorite color combination.

Mother's Day is fast approaching.

Here is a couple of Mother's Day cards I came up with this past Sunday when my mojo was flowing.

Baby Time...

It's about that time, when everyone is starting to have babies.  So I thought I better get some cards made up.  This is one style of card I haven't done yet.  See what you think:

Cardstock used:  Heavenly Blue 1285, Blush X5640, Colonial White 1388
Stamp Ink:  Cocoa
Stamp set:  B1368 Baby Love (available in the current catalog)
Sparkles:  Blue & Green pack
B&T Duo Paper:  Topstick (not available)
Scallops at bottom were made with the help of our 1 1/4 circle punch

Sympathy....

Recently my graduating class lost a classmate, which put me in the mood to come up with this sympathy card.  Very simply but elegant. 
The design on the card was stamped on Grey Flannel cardstock with Grey Wook stamp ink and mounted on black cardstock.  The silver gray ribbon is from Wal-Mart.

An entire day of cardmaking....

Had my mojo going this past Sunday...I made over 24 cards!!!  I'm not going to post all of them today.  The ones shown here were inspired by a recent friend's wedding. 

The top left's base design was made with a stamp directly on the cardstock!  Cool uh?  Four of the cards are dimensional although you can't tell from the picture.  I was pleased with how they turned out.  :)

I used CTMH Cardstock in Grey Flannel, Black and White.
Stamp Ink: Grey Wool, Cotton Candy and Black
Stamp sets used:   D1187 For Every Occassion and C1336 (NLA-retired)

Simply Scallops
