Beach Fish

 

Our Godson is turning 1!!!!! His theme for his birthday is "O-Fish-ally 1" - how cool is that!

I picked out an old stamp set 'Fishy Friends' - oh they are adorable! I'm glad I remembered I had this set! lol (I have so many now... it's hard to keep track!).

I paired this set with the seaweed/ sea grass stamps from 'Friends are Like Seashells' stamp set. And used the Designer Series Paper - Beach Boardwalk DSP.

I chose to design the sentiment myself with My Memories Suite digital software... using the Fonts -  Curlz MT & Cornerstone. The Fishing rod is from MM9 (My Memories 9).

Thanks for taking a look!

I saw this graduation phrase online and I thought to incorporate it in one of my many graduation cards that I needed to create this year! Such an awesome sentiment for any graduate!

I designed the sentiment piece within My Memories Digital software and printed it out on Basic White cardstock. 

I chose the 'Stippled Roses' as a background to make it more feminine.

Skating Birthday

 

My niece, Eleanor, will be having a roller skating party at the nearby skating rink. FUN! I wanted to create a birthday card that showcased that (as she keeps all her cards each year!). I found this graphic online thru FreePix (free clip art). Perfect for our girl!

I printed it out on white cardstock and finished it off using the supplies I had. The DSP (Designer Series Paper) is a retired one, but worked perfectly for the look I was going for. I added a bow to tie it all together!

Trampoline Christmas

 

I wanted to give an experience for Christmas instead of an actual toy gift to our littlest nieces (3,4 and 6). So we decided to give them a gift to the trampoline park here in Ohio. With this gift card they can play for 3 hours. Pretty cool!

Since 2 of my nieces live together... I chose to do only 2 cards instead of 3.

I designed them within My Memories Suite digital software and found the trampolines and people online (free clip art).

Fox Get Well

 

My cousin is in the hospital (on bed rest) for the next 6 weeks. She is pregnant and the doctors want her to be on bed rest until they're ready/able to deliver the baby. It's gonna be a long 6 weeks, but I know she can do it with all the love and support of her family!

I made this card to bring her a smile during her time in the hospital.

I designed it within My Memories Suite digital software and then printed it on Basic White cardstock.

Sympathy Dogs

 

Such a sad card to make for my brother and his family. Their dog, Coco, had to be put down as she had cancer in her lungs. She was such a sweet dog, and I watched her on occasion when the family went on vacation or when Coco had a minor surgery. She will be missed by all.

Coney Island

 

I try and create a card that reminds me of the person I'm giving the card to. So, for my Nephew-in-law... his passion is RollerCoasters. Now, I don't have a rollercoaster stamp, so it's off to the computer to look for free clip art. I found this cute Amusement Park (Coney Island) online through PNGWing. I printed it out on Basic White cardstock and finished it the traditional way.

Rainbow Bailey

 

So sad to need to create a card for the passing of a family pet. This one hit hard for me, as Bailey was a wonderful dog to all she came in contact with. My best friend will miss her very much. I'm blessed that I got to see her all the times I've visited my Best Friend. Rest now Bailey... you're in good hands!

I wanted to create a card using the theme with a rainbow... "going over the rainbow bridge".

I designed this within My Memories Suite digital software. I added the pawprints to the rainbow and found the perfect sentiment.
