~~~Shabby Chic Birthday~~~

Good morning,Crafters !! I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving....we sure did !! I can finally post this card,now that I delivered it ! It was just too bulky to mail because of the flowers I bought at Michael's in the wedding dept. It's the one on the top left. They came in a creamy white color, but I painted and misted and glittered it up. I used my Art Philosophy cart for the smaller flower on the front of the easel and the smallest one is a Prima flower that I doctored up. I added some flat back beads that Tatiana sent to me...thanks T....I just used alcohol inks on them to get the color I wanted. I got carried away and added lots of punched butterflies , some lace and more bling. The banner is from the Art Philosophy cart as well and the stamp is from Close to My Heart. The sentiment frame was made using a punch from Stampin Up. I think I glimmer misted the entire card, I made it so long ago that I have forgotten! Oh and I also made the stick pin...I'm havin lots of fun making those !  I made this card for Joan, one of my sweet "swimmin wimmin" ...Happy Belated Birthday Joan !!!!!
Thanks for taking a peek !!!

This is incredibly beautiful, Joy...I'm going back to calling you the paper whisperer...paper just bends to your will and the result is never less than gorgeous. As always, impossibly fabulous!

Very pretty. I saw your birdcage tag in the Cricut forum and had to come over to look at some of your other creations. You are so creative and talented! No mojo problem!

Welcome to My World

This sight is dedicated to the art of card making....of which I am addicted ! I began making cards a few months before Dan was deployed to Iraq.I wanted to make sure he had a new card to open every day, so I used BlueMountian.Co and created him 2 months worth of cards !About a year ago I saw that famous infomercial for a little bug called a Cricut.Well, after watching it numerous times, I HAD to have it...and I ordered it!!!Then I found the Cricut Message Board and I hit pay dirt!!! I was, and still am so inspired by some of the talented women on that board!I have to give them credit for making me the card maker that I am today!!!
Thank you ladies, from the bottom of my heart!
I hope you enjoy looking at my cards, as much as I enjoy making them!!!
