'Celebrate the Season' Card

One item that I've had on my wish list for a very long time is the SU! Owl Punch.  

A few weeks ago I was finally able to purchase it, and I absolutely adore it!  

What I love the most is how versatile it is.  You can make so much more than just owls with it.

I've been in a penguin mood lately :)  

My inspiration for this card came from HERE.

Have a great Tuesday!

Card Folders

We recently held a community bazaar in my little town, 

and everyone was asked to donate a few things to be sold there.

I decided to make some of these cute Card Folders as part of my donation.

They open up to hold cards and envelopes.  

I think I put 4 cards and 4 envelopes in mine, but there was room for more.

Here's the card that I made for this card folder.

Card Folder #2....

And the cards that went inside...

These little card folders would be a fun gift idea!

Would you like to make a few?  You can find the instructions HERE.

'I Didn't Forget Your Birthday' {card fail}

I'm not always happy with the cards I make.

Anyone else have that same problem?

This card needs something else, but I just can't seem to figure out what IT is.

Maybe the scalloped circle needs to be bigger.  

Or I should've went with a different shape.

THIS is the sketch I used for inspiration.  

I tried adding another shape by the sentiment like it shows in the sketch, 

but it just didn't work on my card.

Thoughts, anyone?
