Homemade Card Donations for Breast Cancer

I spent some time today and did some cards for some wonderful women. - I got online this morning to look at the blogs I follow and found a link from My Pink Stamper. The first posting that I missed is here and the one I found this morning is here.
I made three cards today, I brought all my stuff downstairs so I could work at the dining table so I could watch my little one play and I put on a movie for him. Later I might do some more when all is calm and listen to music.

Inside - Smile

Inside - For Being Amazing

Inside - Make Everything Possible

I had such a blast making these cards and am having fun as the only cards I have really made lately have been in sets of 6 to sell and these I could just be creative. I am using the DCWV Sweet stack as the colors are perfect. And using lots of Cosmo Cricket embellies, tiny type and Glubers for the first time. I really liked using the Glubers too, it was fun!


Can't wait to send these lovies out on Monday!

Yarn and Cupcakes


I would say that my collection is big... and then I see others collections expanding across rooms and then giggle. But somehow the yarn laying places all twisted up and sitting in piles next to things looks almost romantic to me at times. I'm silly I know. But I look at it all and think of the textures and the lovely things that will be made out of it. But this is mine, in a basket that I did not buy intending to hold them all. Right now I am making a queen ann lace scarf that has the dark grey yarn and the pink crochet thread together. It looks adorable. But for winter, it would be beautiful against a dark grey or black wool jacket. I'm making it long too, I hate when I see beautiful scarfs that you want to also keep you somewhat warm too. So it should be able to circle around at least twice... I hope. Lol.


This is the darling little bunny I have cricut out and am putting on the back of the cards that I make. I adore her, bubbly and cute.


And this is one of the cupcake just a note cards that I made. I made 6 of them in two different prints with a larger flat cupcake in the inside cut from the American Alphabet already pre - installed on the anniversary cricut. And I just found out that also on that pre - installed cartridge there is some much needed phrases I am going to use lots. Next I am going to make an owl thinking of you card for a friend to go with a crocheted owl that I made her. I hope that she likes it.

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend!
