Need a Box for a Bulky 6 x 6 Card? I Hear Ya!

I've been creating cards lately, as you know, and ran into a little situation...I couldn't find an envelope, box, or envelope box to put them in.  I couldn't just run to the store and get one...

My Easter card to my Mom was completed and I couldn't figure out how to send it and I hadn't had time to create a box...I just had to do the best I could...She loved the card and said she would frame it...what a Mom...she's always been that way...so encouraging (I love you Mom)....anyway I digress...

So I found this beautiful site; where you can create boxes for your projects...I'll get on it this weekend and see what I can come up with...here's an example of one by Maddy Hill.

LOTV Challenge 93 - Easter

Well, it's time for another LOTV Challenge "try"!  I hope you're smiling...I am!  I created this card with the challenge, and Mom, in mind.  I was going make a card for her...she already knows that it will be late...and well...it's going to be. 

So much going on...anyway...Here it is:



Let me know what you think :) 

With this one I ordered the stamp (you've seen it already) from LOTV...the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, as well as, the lace.  The little pearls are from the Martha Stewart collection...the swirly pearls that created the stem are from ZVA Creative...it's a little bit of everyone!  I colored my lil guy with Promarkers that I purchased through Carpe Diem.

Anyway...There it is!!  Happy, Happy Easter Everyone!!!

Blessings and hugs to all!

Great Product! Great Service!

Good morning everyone! 

You might have noticed a little "badge" on the right side of my screen for I Brake for Stamps.  This company is now a vendor for Wild Orchid Flowers and many other wonderful supplies. 

I wanted to bring this to your attention for a couple of reasons.  Prior to this, we used to order our florals through the Wild Orchid Flowers site, and our items were shipped from the UK.  With I Brake for Stamps your order is placed and shipped here in the USA.  The staff has the product packaged, sent, and at my door, so quickly, that I almost feel like it's the next day!

Please take a moment to check out the site and their products!  Oh, and join the forum too!  Funnnnn!

To my readers, today is the day I, as a Christian, remember the sacrifice of our Savior.  Thanking Him for His tremendous gift of eternal life.  Remembering John 3:16...

Fab and Funky Challenge ~ All Spotty and Dotty

I'm finding new Craft Challenge Blogs all the time and hopefully, I'll get a "link list" started so that you can explore them too! 

It's amazing the talent that is out there...I decided to use one of my LOTV stamps to create this little card for the challenge at the Fab and Funky Challenge event.  I liked the idea of the Spotty and Dotty theme...and well...I just wanted to create something new...

Here's the result...still learning...still having fun...
