Well, maybe you’ve noticed I’ve been fairly absent the last few months. Maybe not. Even though it may seem that I haven’t created much of anything in the last few months, I have managed to squeeze in a few things here and there for my clubs. So I thought I would share with you some of the cards I made several months ago (way back in August, I think) using Close To My Heart’s Laughing Lola collection.
All these cards were inspired by Close To My Heart’s “Make It from Your Heart” How-to Pattern book series…Volume 1 and Volume 2.
Here they are all together…
Inks: Black, Slate, Lagoon, Gypsy
Markers: Lagoon
Other: Artiste Cricut Cartridge, Scallop Border Punch, Sponge, Sanding Kit, 3D Foam Tape, Microtip Scissors, Scoring Board (Martha Stewart), Paper Trimmer (Fiskars), ATG Adhesive (Scotch)
A few closer shots…

| This card is similar…a near CASE…to the card pictured for pattern #25 Card in the first volume. |
I have a few more projects that I will post at another time. Hopefully, I will have even more to create AND share once school is out for winter break, because I’ll have more time. I can hardly wait! Let’s just hope I don’t spend it sick. 😉
Until next time…





These are beautiful!

Very pretty. Love the random stamping you did on the one card. I forget to use my stamps in that fashion.

These are so pretty! I love that paper and definitely HAVE to get some – glad it's carrying forward to the new catty. I especially like the Hello card as it looks really neat on that beige cardstock. Hope you find some time over the “winter break” to get your crafting on!
