Friendship Card Set

This month's Scrapbooks-Plus DT kit is from Basic Grey.  There are a variety of colors in this line of papers but I chose those pages with purple in them to create some fun everyday cards.  These are great to have on hand when you just need to write a quick note for someone special. 

Of course, I had to do something other than a card set so I added a box to put my cards in.  Wouldn't this make a great gift for that special friend?

Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mother's Day!

I created a number of cards with this Basic Grey DT kit this month.  I will post in a few days with more designs but today I wanted to say Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms, Grandmas, Aunts and any other special person who has been a 'Mom' of any kind. 

I created this card with the negative space cut by my Cricut for one of my other cards you'll see in a few days.  I took several of the paper scraps I had from this kit and pieced triangles together then stitched them with my sewing machine to give it a homespun look.  I placed my negative image over it to form a window (and so I didn't have to cut the outside edges in that pretty, but difficult shape!).  I finished it off in the center with a coordinating Basic Grey brad and stamped Happy Mothers Day on the bottom right corner.

I hope you have a wonderful day!
