Love You To The Moon & Back card



This sweet little bear is ready to tell that special someone how he feels.  I made this card to sell for Valentine's day in my Etsy shop.  I bought a few stamp sets last year but I chose the wrong company to order from so they arrived too late to use then.  Lesson learned.

Cancer Pick The Wrong Dude card




Just as soon as I put up the fighting girl cards to sell, one of my dearest customers asked me for a card for a guy.  I was glad to make one right away.  Since I used the blue background directly to stamp on, I fussy cut out the ribbon and can make that any color to match the ribbons used in the fighting of cancer battles.  This one is for leukemia.

Love You Polar Bears card




I can't believe that I actually colored these adorable polar bears a year ago and have finally gotten around to making them into cards.  I color stamped images for the Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge and sometimes when you color such a vast amount, some things tend to get lost...bad excuse.  Sometimes I run out of the season I'm coloring for so I set them aside.  Luckily I could make these into a Valentine's Day card or love card instead of a Christmas card.

Supplies ~

Card stock and envelope - 5.5 x 4.25 card size
White paper - X-Press It Blending card
Pink & Gray paper - Recollections Dreamy card stock
