Double Display Card

Hello everyone, well after a hectic work season and cleaning up all the spam comments I am now able to blog again. I hope you all stay with me and I will try to be more consistent in my blogging. Now for my card this is a double display card which is very much like the shutter card except larger. I made this one for my card club buddy Kim's birthday. I found the directions on pinterest they were very easy the tricky part just like with the shutter card is getting the folding right. Hope you enjoy the card!!!

Cascading Card

Whew!! finally the last of the Christmas cards LOL!! actually I did not make my normal 30 something Christmas cards. This year I made a select few and the rest were store bought (Gasp in horror). I was much too busy this year to have time to make them (or just did not manage my time well). My card club just exchanged Christmas cards and gifts this month due to everyone being sick with the flu. The cards I am sharing with you today were made for my card club the style of card is called a cascading card super easy to make. The women were cut with my silhouette along with the car front. I saw this idea on Pinterest www.callalilystudioblog.blogspot.com her card was so adorable she called it retail therapy and Ihad to give it a try. Thanks for stopping by Alicia

Double Shutter

Happy New Year everyone, Hopefully in the new year I will have a more consistant blogging schedule that is one of my resolutions we will see how that goes LOL!!. Todays card is double shutter card it is made simply by making two shutter cards and joining them together in the back. The frames on the front of the card were cut with the silhouette and 3d stickers were added to the inside. I also used double sided cardstock for the base. Thanks for stopping by have a great new year!!

Gobble !! Gobble !

Children in Silhouette

This card was done for a children's church group that needed thank you cards to send to donors. They were open to any design concept and I thought this one of the children marching would be appropriate. The image is not stamped but cut out with the silhouette cutting machine and I was happy to be able to use one of my cuttlebug strips across the top. I always forget to use the strips and also the small square embossing folders on projects I need to use them more often. The inside was left blank so they could put their own sentiments and personal messages. Thanks for stopping by Alicia

Fall Trio

Happy fall everyone !!! I hope you are enjoying this wonderful time of the year with all of it's beautiful colors. Fall theme was the challenge for this months card club and because I could not decide on which Fall Holiday to do I did them both along with just a general fall card. I did a tent base for the cards and used a different circle die cut from silhouette for all of the circles. I think I like the Thanksgiving one best with it's fancy folds. The folds were a breeze using the silhouette I can't wait to do more. Thanks for stopping by. Alicia

Beautiful Card Sad Day

Today's card was made for a dear old friend who's daughter recently passed from a motorcycle accident at the the age of 26. Her daughter was serving our country,a mom, a wife and daughter she will be missed by all. The card was made by folding the front panel in half and then attaching a diecut to the fold. This card is similar to a swing card except it does not swing out

.

For the inside I duplicated the die cut and placed a stamp from Our Daily Bread inside. A cuttlebug folder gives the inside a nice emboss background. Thanks for stopping by Alicia
