Happy Valentine’s Day My Prince!

Feb14

My mom always told me that when I met my husband, I found my prince charming because he’s really handsome and does everything for me. My family calls me the princess! I don’t think it’s quite what my hubby had in mind for his princess, but it works for us! LOL! Everyone always asks me if they could borrow him. Sorry, ladies he’s all mine and has been for going on over 34 years. I couldn’t live without him, he’s my best friend.

This year, I thought I’d make him a special Valentine’s card with a little bit of humour that reflects our relationship! I do help when he lets me.

On the front of the card is the digital image from The Paper Shelter – Prince Charming.

Here is a close-up of the prince:

On the inside I used the stamps from Ai – Art Impressions – 4729 – In the Bag Set.

Here is a close-up:

The captions above and below the image were typed in Microsoft Word using the font Cooper Black, Size 14.

Background Paper – K&Company – Kelly Panacci – KP Valentine – 30-599338, K&Company – Kelly Panacci – KP Valentine – 30-5993345

Embellishments – Jot Jewel Stickers

He laughed when I gave him his card and he loved it! I hope you do too!

Happy Valentine’s Day Everyone!

Sharing a card that I made for my dad who LIVES to fish! Saw these characters on the Marjorieanne site and just knew that I had to have them.

It reminded me of when I used to go fishing with my dad when I was younger.

Used Cricut Explore and and file “fishingwithdad_marjorieanndesigns039887” .svg cutting files for characters, scene and fish, on the front and inside of the card. Inked around all edges with various Tim Holtz Distress Ink colours and used Xyron Create-a-sticker to aid in putting all of the little pieces together.

Created clouds and background water with Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Salty Ocean and Avery Elle – Custom Steel Dies – Made in the USA – D-05-01 PiercedCloudsDie.

Background paper – Gone Fishing PA-0909 – American Traditions Designs.

Hi There,

Here is my finished card from the Kit and Clowder April Markers Class.

Image is from: Mo’s Digital Pencil called “Sparkle”.

Here is a close-up.

On the inside I used this sentiment:

Also made this little kitten out of wool for my Secret Pal as she said she liked cats. Making 2 pom-poms and following the directions from “Klutz – Pom-Pom Kitties”. Thought it turned out to be adorable.

For the card background I used paper from Recollection Signature – Kaitlin. LOVE this paper. I then edged the sides with Tim Holtz Distress Inks – Peacock Feathers. Along the top, I used punch from Creative Memories – Scallop Stitch. Then used the Sookwang tape and added Glitter Ritz – Ice Blue Micro Fine Glitter. Next I weaved some white ribbon through the base of the scallops.

Image was coloured in using a mixture of Copics and Spectrum Noir markers.

Stamped the sentiments and added them to the card. Hope you like it!
