Open to whatever

 When I saw this pocket pad of images at the stamp store over in Missouri I had to pick it up because it had great images I could use for either girl or guy cards. This one reminded me of something Tim would have, it had great distress look to it.

• Hunkydory - Garden Visitors Pocket pad (moths)
• DCWV - The Natural paper
• Tim Holtz - Metallic Sticker Book  and Kraft core Metallic collection (for matting)

I liked the shine in the paper and matting to go with the image. 

Thanks for stopping by today,

So Sorry

 Two ladies in my cardmaking group lost family members, I had recently printed off these images from Graphics Fairy, so I thought they would work nicely for sympathy cards.

• Graphics Fairy - Digital image
• Basic Grey - Porcelain papers
• Stampendous - Sincere Sentiments stamp

On this next image the sign is empty so I stamped a sentiment in side.

• Graphics Fairy - Digital image
• Taylored Expressions - Care & Comfort sentiment stamp
• The Greetery - Crimped Frame die

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Magnolia Wall hanging

 I just love these flowers and I had to make something for me to enjoy with them.  I don't have a tree of my own but there are a few not to far that I drive past all the time in the spring so I can enjoy them that way. I decided to make something I could hang and as I was putting away all my summer decorations to get ready for fall I wondered if I had ever posted it, and when I found a piece of paper with all the info I realized I never did share it so here we are in Autumn enjoying some spring goodies :)

It hangs from a shelf my hubby made me, I don't recall where I found the hanger but it works great for those things I want to display, that doesn't have one of their own. I used my branch die to add the little buds too or they would just be floating in air.

• Memory Box - Magonalia Blooming Bud, Magnolia Bud Trio and Woodland Branch die
• Spellbinders - Grand Labels One dies (Base Layers)
• DCWV - The Primrose paper
• Martha Stewart - Butterfly Punch
• Paper Studio - Gems

A side view to see the bit of dimension to it.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
