I made this Mini Album for my Mother, Donna Whitley for Mothers Day.  I had so much fun. The tag was cut from Sweethearts at 5 1/2".  The paper was an old stack I had.  I think it is Brenda Walton.  There were embelishments with that stack, like the bird and one of the butterflies. The Birdcage was from Straight From the Nest.  The front of the tag has some Prima flowers and clay flowers from Michaels.  Most of the words are from the Stamping cartridge and Mothers was cut with a sizzlet set.  There are also some Jolees embelishments.  The metal butterfly is Making Memories.

This sailboat card is from Just Because Cards.  The background lake is the egg from the cartridge that I ran through the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder.  The Just For You is from Stamping.  Have I said how much I LOVE Stamping.  It is one of the most versatile cartridges in my collection.  I use it all of the time.  Great words and phrases and cute images.  This one I think works for a masculine card.
Thanks for looking!
This is a SIMPLE card made with Just Because Cards.  I am not a very whimsical, or punny person, so a lot of the images on the cartridge are not my style.  However, there is enough to make me happy I have the cartridge.  I LOVE the mat behind this adorable ice cream sundae!  I LOVE the cherry button on top! I cut that mat in white and ivory to use for sentiments on the front of other cards.  You will see it in the future.

Lastly, this tag was featured as well on the Above Rubies Studio DVD.  The tag was cut at 5 1/2" from Sweet Treats.  The Cupcake is from Gypsy Wanderings and the Happy Birthday is from Stamping.  The stripe and star paper are from American Crafts.
Thanks for looking!
This card was also featured on Above Rubies Studio DVD.  I think it is so pretty.  The image is also from Gypsy Wanderings, both the border and the flower.  The stripe paper is from the Orchid SEI stack.  The sentiment is Hero Arts.
Thank you for looking!
All three of these cards were published on Above Rubies Studio Gypsy A to Z DVD!  What an honor!  They were all made with Gypsy Wanderings cartridge.  The images on the cartridge do not have layers so I needed to cut each one 3 times and cut it apart ot get the 3 colors.  The card with the dark blue stripe has Cuttlubug D'vine swirls as the water.  On all, 3 I used Fiskars Sentimental Scallop edge punch to top the bottom layer.  The sentiment on the 2 that have one are Hero Arts.
Thanks for looking!
