Engagement exploding box

My niece recently got engaged while on holidays in Hawaii, a romantic place to get engaged. So I decided to make a special card for her....I made an exploding box with another box inside and topped the lid with an easel card.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my latest blog.

Gift Bag

I decided to make my gift bag look like a handbag i got the idea from http://www.frenchiestamps.com  then look at 2010 blogs for October. I increased the size to fit the gift I wanted to put in the bag. It is a really simple to make.

Music Theme Easel Card

I like making easel cards they are simple and quick to make. This one had a music theme as it is for someone who enjoys and teaches music. took me a while to find the right musical instrument sticker. As I needed a flute. there were plenty of stickers of piano's, guitars, bass horns even a clarinet. I hope the person in question enjoys the card. Thanks for taking time to check out my blogs.

pop up card

This is my first attempt at a pop up card....It wasn't as hard as I expected. I chose the ship as it was for someone who is in the Navy. Am going to attempt some more in the near future. I got the design from http://robertsabuda.com/popmake/index.asp .Take alook there are alot of designs to choose from.
