Liberty Card
I did my first challenge at SCS and the color combination was River Rock, Black and White. I had just gotten this new stamp set called The Free and The Brave and decided to use it. I really love the saying on the card.

Tag Fold Birthday Card
I made this card back in Jan. for my friend Becki. I was playing around and came up with this design. It was fun to do and a wonderful way to use the Delight in Life stamp set. I cut my paper lengthwise and folded the card in 4 equal sections. I notched the tops to make the card look like the tags that would be inserted into each pocket. I punched circles and folded them over to create the tag look. The pocket is 1/2 the size of the length of the card with an angle cut.
The B on the card was glittered and surrounded by chipboard hearts covered in DP. I used Pearls from the Pretties Kit and lots of ribbons. I made a pouch (laying in the background) to put the card in and decorated it to match the card. The best thing about using the Define Your Life stamp set was I could find the perfect words to tell my friend how wonderful I think she is!
I wish I could give you the exact dimensions for this card but I gave it to her already and actually forgot I hadn't uploaded it. I will be making another one and making it the March project of the month so they will be available next week with better details.

One More Card Today - This Time a Cute Baby Card
I saw this card a week ago on another blog with a great tutorial and just had to make it for a friend that had a baby a few weeks ago. Isn't it just too cute?
I used the Pink beads from Stampin Up around the neck and legs and I can tell you there were a bit tedious but oh so worth it. I found the tutorial here, done by Lauren Meader.

St. Patrick's Day Card More is Better
While
I
was
stamping
the
St.
Patrick's
Day
Card
the
other
day,
I
stamped
some
extra
image
intending
to
do a
more
is
more
card.
I
think
this
picture
shows
the
color
better
also.
It
was
a
gray
day
when
I
did
the
other
photos.
The
crystal
looking
dots
came
from
Michael's
in
the
floral
department.
You
can
get
a
big
bag
of
them
for
3.99
if I
remember
correctly.
They
come
in
several
colors
including
a
color
that
matches
pretty
closely
with
Purely
Pomegranate.
The
beer
mug
is
from
Cheers
To
You,
a
Stampin
Up
set
only
available
overseas.
It
is
such
a
cute
set
and
why
we
can't
sell
it
baffles
me!
Hopefully
it
will
be
in
our
next
catalog.

New
Cards
Finally!
Sorry
for the
long
time
between
posting,
I had
surgery
at the
beginning
of the
month
and am
now just
getting
back to
normal.
I have
been
working
on a few
cards
the last
couple
of days
to share
with
you.
First is
a heart
card I
made
using
the new
Always
Stamp
Set. I
really
like
this
more
than I
thought
I would.
This
would
make a
great
Valentine
card, I
know it
has
passed
but I
think it
would
make a
great
Anniversary
card
also.
I
stamped
both
hearts
and the
saying
using
Chocolate
Chip Ink
and
Versamark
and then
embossed
with
Clear
Emboss.

My
second
card for
you is a
St.
Patrick's
Day card
made
using
Pinch
Proof,
also a
new
stamp
set from
our new
Stampin'
Up
catalog.
I am
going to
remake
this
card
later
today
and see
what
happens
with a
few more
embellishments.
The
scallop
tag is
pop
dotted
up.
I
stamped
the
leprechaun
and the
pinch
proof
tag with
black
ink and
VersaMark
and then
embossed
with
clear
emboss.
The
saying
was
embossed
directly
on the
Certainly
Celery
DP and
embossed.

My last
card for
you
today is
a
birthday
card I
made for
my
friend's
dear
daughter.
She is
turning
the big
13 and I
really
wish I
had a
stamp
that
said,
"It's
Just a
Phase"
because
I could
of
really
used it
in
making
her
card.
Elizabeth
is just
delightful
and it
is such
fun to
watch
this
special
young
lady
grow up.
The
candles
were
stamped
in
Pretty
in Pink
on
Spring
Fling
DP. The
candles
were
stamped
directly
onto
Shimmery
White CS
and then
I
applied
Stickles
to them
when I
decided
they
didn't
have
enough
bling. I
stamped
the
inside
with a
saying
from
It's
Your
Birthday,
"Each
and
every
year you
grow you
just
become
more fun
to
know!" I
stamped
the
envelope
using
the Just
B stamp
set
using "B
is for
Birthday".
