Thank you for stopping by!
kelli youre cards are wonderful, so meticulously made. The colours of them remind me of cider and its warm colours of autumn apples.
ReplyDeleteI'm, glad you do tutorials on how you achieve the result, as its good to see how they are made step by step!

Your cards are just lovely. Perhaps I should dig out some of my scrapbooking and rubber stamping "things" and attempt to make a card. You certainly make it look easy (but I know it's not).
ReplyDeleteI love them all--makes me wish I had more time to make some more cards or do some scrapbooking! But it's time for me to seriously work on Christmas things. I especially like the last card with the music and pumpkins!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Blessings to You!

Those are so nice, I love the FALL one with the rake.

Your cards are beautiful, Kelli. What a special way to send friends a greeting! I'm always amazed with your creative talent. Very inspiring!

Again, another beautiful card! I've used the stickers you used for your card on wooden boxes and aged them with stain, etc. I have them on top of my cabinets in the kitchen. Never thought to use them for cards! Great idea!
ReplyDeleteI love making cards when possible.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful ideas! I so enjoy
your simple crafts! Thank you for sharing.
Your cards are so lovely! I get inspired just looking at them. I wonder if you might show us some time your storage solutions for your card-making "stuff." That's a problem for me now -- I have things stuffed here and there and have experimented with different storage tools but haven;t found anything truly satisfying yet.
ReplyDeleteAlso, do you work on cards on the kitchen table or do you have a work area for crafting?
Kellie your cards are so neat. I really need to get with it and start making mine. I am trying to figure out how to do a party invitation for my little one. We are having it Halloween Weekend and were going to do a hayride and have a bouncing thing they have at carnivals. Those big ones you get in and jump up and down in. So maybe when I get it finish I can share.
ReplyDeleteKelli,
ReplyDeleteJust stopping by to say hello and catch up on your blog.
I love your homemade cards.
I love to stamp my cards, but haven't found time to do so in a long time. I hope to find time soon.
Hugs, Lori

ReplyDeleteLovely cards, Kelli - I like the third one the best! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the sheet music with the pumpkin. Very nice work.
ReplyDeleteHi Kelli,
ReplyDeleteI bet people love getting cards from you. They are so cute.:-)
Beautiful as always Kelli! I love the baby card...it's always hard to choose one, how perfect to make your own :D
ReplyDeleteHI Kelli! Your cards are beautiful, as usual. I was wondering what you use to write on the inside of your cards when they are a really dark color? I would want to make sure my message would show up good if my basic card was a dark color....for example, a dark green or brown card.
