Hello and Good Saturday Morning,

I am back this morning with another graduation card.  I have only one more to share with you tomorrow, so we will be done with the grad cards.  I have a couple of Birthday cards made up and a baby card and will share those with you later on.

Purple and Gold is the theme for this card also.  I haven't received any cards from grads from any other school so I don't get to make any other color, however, they don't have to be the school colors of the grad.

Here is the card:

Most of the elements I used for this card are from Stampin UP, but some stamping was Hobby Lobby stamps, the scalloped circles are punches from Marvy, and some label punches from Stampin UP. Ribbon/stampin up.  Ink/Memento Thanks for looking Jodi

Graduation card purple and gold

Hello,

Today I am back with another graduation card.  I know you all are probably going to get sick of
seeing the same colors in my grad cards but I try to make them with the colors of the school the are graduating from.  Purple and Gold is probably a common color style for a lot of schools, but you can use any colors to make this card. I used supplies from Stampin Up, Quik Kuts, and embossing folders from cuddle bug.....

Thanks for looking

WOW!! Am I back?

HELLO,

Well, I don't know how long I can keep posting, but I have been making a few cards lately and I will try to post one when I can. 

I have found it hard to have the time to make cards.  I keep busy with the house, the outdoors and all the things that includes, but yesterday my cousin and I got together and made a few graduation cards, so I will be sharing those with you today.

You may find that they all tend to look simular, and that is probably true, but all the graduates I am making cards for are from the same school, so the colors will all look alike.

Here is the first card:  This was patterned from Mojo Monday sketch Monday 216 probably an older sketch.

For the front of the card I used Black as the base card, I used white cardstock on the layer and embossed it the swiss dot embossing folder.  I used the graduation hat cutting die from quik kuts, black brads for the hat and the stamp is from Stamping Up, I decorated the black back tab with a punch border.

The inside of the card I used white cardstock and embossed it with a embossing folder that was perfect for a congratulations greeting.  The little black folder is from sizzix and I made a small band on the inside to put money, the greeting was a stamp from Stamping Up.

Well, that is all I have today, I have a few more cards I will share with you but that is all for today.
I just hope I can keep stopping by for more cards.

Thanks for looking

Good Morning,

Like I mentioned yesterday I have another card to share with you today.

ideas so I think you should check it out. 

Here is my card:

it is not Old Olive, but that would work too or any green of your choice.

I hope everyone enjoys the card, if you make this card let me know how it goes.

Mine was pretty big but I loved it just the same.  The tree would look awesome with

Thanks for stopping by.

Christmas Tree Card



 Hello,

Well, I made a card finally.  Please bare with me as I try to find my motivation in the next few weeks.
I worked hours yesterday with my cousin Pam and she and I both had a little bit of a time trying to find our creative flare.  But I am thinking with a little time we will get our mojo back and be back to our creative selves.

Front of Card:

This card was very easy to make.  But I don't think I could have made anything that would create a challenge for me anyway.

Recipe:
Crumb Cake Paper for Base, tree base and flower, and Label (Stampin Up) or any tan cardstock
Cherry Cobbler Cardstock for layer (Stampin Up) or any red cardstock
Embossing folder for red cardstock (Stampin Up)
Tree Stamp and Happy Holiday Stamp (Papertrey)
Flower was made with punch
Red button (Stampin Up)
Decorative Corner Punch for corners of Red cardstock layer

I used paper punch to go around the tree base
Pop dotted the Happy Holiday label along with the flower.

INSIDE:

Recipe:
I used spellbinders Labels 10 for the inside and did a little edging with crumb cake ink (Stampin Up)
Sentiment was Papertrey in Crumb Cake ink

I hope you enjoy todays card.  I have a card for tomorrow, so see you then.

Working on Craft Room today

Hello Everyone,

I have been working on my craftroom today getting ready to
make a few cards.  I will probably be making mostly Christmas Cards and a few other crafts for Christmas. So I hope you will
stay with me and keep watching for my posts.

Also, today I have been working on my blog, changing backgrounds and so on, so I hope this hasn't been a problem.

Hope to see you soon.

Jodi

Hi to all, I guess I should think there will be no one see this since I haven't posted in so long.  I have been so busy with summer and now fall with taking Senior Portraits, but now that season is over for me I think it is time for  me to start on my card making.  I plan to start with Christmas Cards since it is time for that holiday season.  It will be a few days before I get cards posted, mostly because the blog has changed and I will need to learn how to use it again, and I want to get a few cards made ahead. So stay posted to my blog and I will be back in a few days. Thanks for coming by!!!! Jodi

Hello.....

It has been a long time since I last posted a card.
I find it hard to be stuck in the basement when it is so nice outdoors.  I tend to enjoy gardening and watching birds in the summer so it is hard for me to craft.  I however will be getting back in the scrapbook room once the weather breaks. 

I have been busy with photography lately, taking some senior portraits and getting a lot of editing done, which keeps me tied up also.  But soon that will be ending.

Fall is just around the corner and harvest will begin for us, so that will be another hectic time so all in all, I will eventually get back to blogging.

It has been so long they have changed a lot about blogger, now I will have to get use to that now.

I will go now.  I still see your cards and enjoy your work.

TTFN
Jodi
