Monogrammed Card Set and Gift Bag

I made these for the most wonderful school nurse in the whole world. My friend Mary Jo turned 40 last week and I made her this set of monogrammed notecards and this cute little bag to put them in. The pictures really aren't that great but the colors are Pacific Point and Baja Breeze. I love this combo. I used Hearfelt thanks from Stampin up to make my own patterned paper for the design on both. The cards all had an embossed cuttlebug layer. I used 4 different folders, then I used the scalloped scallop punch from E.K. Success for the bottoms. The monograms were made with Papertrey Ink b&c monogram edition and ambassador monogram. The little tag I made with the word window punch from Stampin up was stamped "happy birthday" with the Papertrey Birthday Basics set. I really think this turned out cute. I wish the pictures were better. Let me know what you think. I would love a comment even if it is constructive criticism. I think there are so many talented papercrafters out there an I would love to hear your opinions.

Julia's 3rd Birthday Card

A cute little Winnie the Pooh stamp on this one. This was for my niece Julia who turned 3 on St. Patrick's day...Her mom turned 25 on the same day. Her card I will post later. This one is just Pink Pirouette and generic white. The word stamps are from Papertrey Ink. Can I just tell you how much I love their stamps. The versatility is amazing. I have a few sets and I find myself mixing and matching them all the time. Anyway, the white layer is embossed with a flowery cuttlebug folder and punched with a scalloped scallop punch. These punches are really cute. Michael's just started carrying this whole new line of E.K. Success punches and I love them. The squares are punched with Marvy punches and I added a little pink ribbon from Mike's..

Baby Girl Card

Finally getting around to doing some posting. It has been a while. I have a few projects I have been working on. This is a card for a friend of my husband's who had a baby girl last week. I got a cute little Winnie the Pooh outfit to go with it.

Really bad shadowing on this picture. It doesn't matter where I go in the house, I just can't get the lighting right. I guess photography is not my strong point. The stamp sets I used are Everday Envelopes from Clear Dollar stamps and So Many Scallops from Stampin up.. The paper is Pink Pirouette, Mellow Moss and generic white. This ribbon I found on clearance at Michael's for $1. 25 yards of ribbon. Woohoo. Really cute color matches mellow moss wonderfully. A little bit of Stickles were added on the stars. Hope they like it...
