Cards for a Friend

Just a quick note tonight to share a few cards I made today. I had fun making them and I sure do like how they turned out. I am still trying to incorporate cuts that I haven't used before.

Materials:

Pagoda cartridge ~ fan (p. 64) cut at 2"

Wild Card cartridge ~ Just Because (p. 39) cut 4 3/4"

Walk in My Garden cartridge ~ wheelbarrow (p. 107) cut at 1 3/4"; flower shadows (p. 82) cut at 1/2"; Thanks (p. 124) cut at 1/2"

Serenade cartridge ~ butterfly

Spellbinders ~ Lacey Circles

My Mind's Eye paper ~ Lost & Found

Heidi Grace paper ~ Daisy Dear

DCWV paper stack ~ Cafe Mediterranean
K Andrews stamps ~ Time Heals all things

brown and pink flowers

cream and pink flower ribbons

pink, green, and beige gems

brown flower button

Challenges:
Clear It Out ~ Thank You with ribbon (middle card)
Cardz TV ~ 3 R's (first card)
Twisted Sketches ~ (first card)

I have one more I need to make, which will include a lighthouse (Life's a Beach cartridge).

I sure wish Blogger would be more cooperative. I have tried posting and leaving comments numerous time this weekend, but MANY times it has been unsuccessful (blank white screen). I hope it is resolved extremely soon. Please do not think I have forgotten about you!

Is anyone else having trouble?

I can only hope it is not just me.

Until next time,

Georgiana

Thanks with an Oriental Flair

Good morning and Happy Father's Day. I hope you are enjoying your day and giving all those Dads that extra special attention they have earned. My hubby gets to pick what we do today and he has decided a movie and a late lunch would be perfect, so we are off to see Green Lantern shortly. When we return, I know my hubby plans on watching the last round of golf. We are all routing for the Rory Mcilroy. I am not one to sit and watch sports, but can you believe how well he is doing?

I started this card last night and finished it this morning for the M.A.G Challenge by the Page. This week page 52 of the Pagoda cartridge was selected.

Take Care,

Georgiana

Trees...Alphabet Challenge

I have not used my Pagoda cartridge (my daughter has used the Panda cut a few times), but I remember seeing all the wonderful cuts and thinking how they would make beautiful projects. After reading that the Alphabet Challenge was "trees" I knew I had to use it. I was feeling a bit inspired, so I created a 3-D card. 

The Bonsai tree was cut at 3". The Asian Writing paper is by Hot Off the Press.

The torn paper river and bridge are propped outwards (sorry the picture is not great...I will keep trying and replace if I can get a better image) and the tree is attached with foam dots. The hummingbird and dragonfly were both cut at 1".

 I still have a few more cards I would like to finish today. Hopefully I will be able to post before going back to school tomorrow. Be sure to come back again and THANKS!

Stay Creative,

Georgiana : )
