Bee Happy

Just buzzing by with a simple little card that could be a "B'day Card" or to cheer you...or even "welcome to your new hive"! The wings of the little bees are touched with a bit of shimmer to add life to them. And the funny little fellow above the hive will bring a smile to all.

Make a Wish ...

...and blow out the candles!! This card is certainly unique! The candles are ready to go with gold foil flames, and set atop embossed birthday messages that have been sanded to reveal the words in white. The ribbon spells out Happy Birthday and echoes the birthday hats and balloons of the background paper. This is a fun card for young or young at heart!

Thinking of Ewe!

Perhaps a note to a friend, or a special Valentine's message would be just right for this little Lamb. The bottom section is embossed with tiny hearts, the upper section has glitter and gloss for a really special look. Lambie-pie is embossed with the Cuttlebug to have swirls all over, just like curly wool. The inside of the card is white, so there is plenty of room for your personal message.

Thinking of You

This cheerful little card has a sparkling message to share. The butterfly sits upon a unique fabric-type covering that is lightly touched with prisma glitter. The ribbon is tied with a bow holding the "Thinking of You" chipboard message. Inside is another butterfly, also shimmering with irridescent glitter. (To find out the secret about this fabric, check out BettyBee's Buzz!)

Cuttlebug Challenge #15

Love is in the air with this embossed card. The glittered paisleys, florals and hearts cascade down the length of the card, and are tied at the center with a heart border by Martha Stewart. The message of love, is a stamp by StudioG. (For more info, please click over to my other blog, BettyBee's Buzz!)

Basic Little Black Dress

This little Any Occasion card is created on black cardstock, with the image stamped on glossy white. The black satin bow is accented with an adorned hat pin, and the pearls are repeated on the lace "hem" of the card. Inside the card is another piece of white cardstock featuring the scalloped lace edging along the bottom and stitching lines along the top.

Party!

Fluffles and Friends are ready to present your best wishes for just about any occasion. The image is stamped, then hand colored with water colors and baby oil gel. Best wishes!!!

Wild Thing!!!

Happy Valentines Day, or a big message for the heart throb in your life!! The big ape is from the Animal Kingdom cartridge, and he is swinging through the jungle with a big grin on his face. The hearts inside the card say "forever"....

Cuttlebug #14

My apologies that the cards you are looking for aren't here! We have had cyber-gremlins for a couple of days, and I couldn't upload the new card that I made for the challenge, so I shared one that I made back in August. Here's the rub.....it isn't even on this blog.....it's on my "sister" blog. Please click on the link in the right column "BettyBee's Buzz"! There you will find a whole list of Birthday posts, and it's there. I hope you will find the blog hopping worth while. Thanks for stopping by!!

Happy Scrapping!!!

Thank You in Chocolate!

What better way to say "thanks" than with chocolate! The embossed background on this card gives the feeling of rich, dark cocoa, while the pink and flowers carry the Thank You message loud and clear. There are tiny pink gems accenting the swirls and thank you frame. Thank You with a Flourish!!!

Shadow Box Card

This three dimensional card is a lot of fun to make and to receive. It is a standard size card, sent flat, then it pops open and sits up! The bird and branch stamp are set inside, and the bird has been stamped three times, and layered for depth. There is no sentiment on this card, so it could be used for any occasion. I hope you enjoy it.

Happy Birthday

This colorful birthday card features raised candles that have been inked in bright, bold colors, and the flames have been brought to life with golden glitter. The message "It's Your Day" is cut from brilliant gold card stock, and the ribbon is threaded through the front of the card. The inside has a cute candle stamped on the left, with a happy birthday greeting running along it's side.

You Make My Heart Sing

All white elegance makes this Valentine's Card a winner. The corner accents are embossed with Fancy Corners, and the center heart carries the message "You Make My Heart Sing". The corners and the center heart are covered with color changing Kaleidoscope heat activated embossing powder that gives it a shiny glittery finish. The corners and the ribbon "arrow" are accented with flatbacked pearls. The scalloped heart really shines with MS mica! Send a Valentine's message to someone that makes your heart sing!

Happy Birthday

A fun birthday card for celebrating that special day for a special lady! This one has lots of sparkling glitter in the star borders, top and bottom. The additional star also shines with lots of glitter. The tiny stars accent the four corners of the front of the card, and cascade down the right edge of the inside of the card. The red/gold ribbon accent picks up the red (which doesn't show well in the photograph) that outlines the small white flowers on the patterned paper.

Thinking of You

Gruffie and Hedgie are bringing a great big bouquet to say they're thinking of someone special. This card can brighten anyone's day, for just about any occasion....get well, missing you, I'm glad you're my friend, congratulations, cheer up, etc. This is a great card to have on hand for those "right now" moments.

Congratulations, Graduate!

This card is a stair-step card, created for a new PhD! The back panel is clear acrylic, and the graduation caps appear to be flying in the air, as if thrown at the ceremony! When folded flat, this card fits into a regular envelope.

Order your stair-step card to celebrate any special event.

Happy Birthday

Swiss Dot Embossing, and Lace Edge punching make this card lots of fun. The bright flowers set off the happy birthday message, and the dotted ribbon echo the raised dots on the lower half. This cheerful card would make anyone's birthday brighter!

Criss-Cross Holder with cards Set

This set is ideal for a gift. The note cards are 3x4, and they tuck nicely inside the matching criss-cross box. They are all decorated with cuttlebug embossing, and lettering that says "Thank You". Springy colors of greens and purples are always uplifting.

Happy Anniversary

This Anniversary card features sanded dry embossing, a stamped tree design, and is accented with "emerald" jewels to celebrate a 35th wedding anniverary. I used copper ink to accent the tree and the lettering. The tree design is repeated on the inside.

I'm having difficulty with this blog! Check out BettyBee's Buzz to see some of my latest cards! This one won't let me upload images tonight!


Happy New Year, one and all!!!

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town!

This accordian fold card features four different levels, and a scene that would delight any child, or child at heart. The tree is the main feature, and each of the four layers of the tree is embossed with a different design. The whole card is highlighted with sparkling ice stickles.

A pocket full of posies!

This card is cut from design studio, accented with Swiss Dots on the left panel, and then with patterned paper on the right. The message is cut out, and could be for just about any occasion. The flowers are 3/4 inches across, and have skittles in the centers. Pick the colors of your posies!

For Any Occasion

This extremely versatile card is shown with Thank You, but it would be just as effective as a birthday, anniversary, get well, thinking of you, baby, or just about any other occasion card! The coordinated papers are easily changed to meet the needs of the occasion. These colors are perfect for today's trends! Let me make some for your needs!

Two Shall Become One

This card features one single rose, the symbol of love. Gold embossed lettering declares the message, and two corners are cut away with tiny hearts, backed with gold embossing. The message inside states "From This Day Forward", also embossed in gold. The framing in this card is a rich burgundy, the color of the bridesmaid's dresses. If you know the wedding colors, I can make the card to coordinate with the wedding, or special event.
