We Go Together Like Eggs and Bacon

My assistant's daughter asked me to make a Valentine's Day card for her to give to her boyfriend. It always makes me feel so honored when someone thinks of me when they want a special card for someone. The sketch came from the Try Stampin' on Tuesday Challenge #304. Here is the sketch and the materials I used:

• Love 'n Breakfast stamp set by Lawn Fawn
• XOXO paper by Jillibean Soup
• Lovebugs paper by Doodlebug Design
• copics- Y15, E27, T4, 5, 6
• memento ink- tuxedo black and rich cocoa

Birthday Candles

Happy Birthday, Hubby! This card is for my favorite guy. Here are the materials I used:

• Candles diecut by Elizabeth Craft Designs
• Birthday Greetings by Altenew
• Party Boy paper pack by Photo Play
• Stitched Square diecuts by My Favorite Things
• memento ink- bahama blue

Bride and Groom

A girl in my small group is getting married next weekend! I know she will love this card. The whimsical look is just her style. Here are the materials I used:

• Love Me Do stamp by Whimsy Stamps
• copics- W00, 0, 1, E00, 01, 25, 27, 29, C1, 2, 3, 4, YR21, 24, 27, RV11, 52, YG61, G43
• Labels 42- Decorative Accents by Spellbinders

Warm Heart

One of my resolutions for 2017 is to do a better job of actually sending the cards I make. I made this card to send to a friend that I really miss. We met in college because we were in the same cohort for the education program and geography has made it difficult to stay close. Like me, she is both young at heart and an old soul. (I swear it is possible to be both.) She will really appreciate the snail mail. Here are the materials I used: 

• mittens2stamp by The Stamps of Life
• cross stitch rectangle diecuts by My Favorite Things
• Frosty Friends by Doodlebug Designs 
• memento ink- tuxedo black
• coordinating ribbon
