    Father’s Day Grill in a box

    I had fun making this card for my hubby (giggle, giggle).  I turned the card in a box into a BBQ grill in a box.  Yes I no some of the things are not proportionate but it did get the theme across.  Here are three different angles of the card.

    Wedding Bells

    Weddings are traditionally for the month of June and my niece had her Bridal shower recently, so of course I had to make her a card.  One of her colors is peach so I used that color for the background.

    For the BrideShhhh…. don’t tell anyone but I already made their wedding card also.

    Watercolor Birthday butterfly card and Just for you

    Well today it is pouring rain like cats and dogs, the only good thing about the rain is my garden will love the extra water.

    I was playing around with my watercolors today to create these two cards.  I used the Derwent Intense Watercolors.  This was my first time using them and I must say they really are intense.  If you can afford the watercolors they would be great for your collection.

    I used a butterfly die for the card front and then painted each of the butterflies wings.  Added a little bling to their body and a sentiment and the cards were done.  These would make a great gift for the end of year teacher gifts or a Spring or Summer birthday.  As you can see this type of card can be made into several different sentiments, it could even be used as a Mother’s day card.
