Graduation time is coming soon.  This card is done in the colours of our national flag.

Play Ball

The self designed designer paper was made by stamping images of the stamp set :"Just Baseball".
This card is bound to be a hit with anyone who loves the sport of playing ball.

Canada's National Colours - card #2

This is another card made with the stamp set:  Canada Day.

Our National Flag

The challenge was to make a card with the colours of our national flag - so I made a card of the national flag of Canada.

The stamp set is called:  Canada Day

All a Flutter

This card was made with the new butterfly stamp from SU.  The butterflies were embossed with black embossing powder on vellum, coloured on the back with markers, cut out and mounted on curry cardstock.
Don't they look real? Get your butterfly net handy!
