Butterfly cards

Here are my butterfly cards. I cut them all out, embossed the wings, used foam tape for the 3-d effect,embossed the card stock for the fronts, added some greetings and this is my results. Hope you like them.

If you are having a hard time seeing these pictures, just click on it to enlarge.





Since purple is my favorite color, I really love these beauties.





I am sure I will be making more of these.





If you would like to purchase these, email me, or comment on this blog. I will get back to you ASAP.



These make great gifts!

I'm back!

Finally got a new monitor! Yippee! You know it is suprising how dependant I have become to my computer! I can remember when I was a teenager, when the phone was out from the bad storms we had as child, I felt lost when I was unable to contact my friends whenever I wanted.

Now I feel that way about my computer. I can contact anyone anywhere in the world now. Or look stuff up whenever needed. Wow! I wonder what my grandkids will be doing in their 40's? How will they be communicating with each other?

Okay, Kathy, back to the present. I do have some cards to post. First I have to get them on the computer to show what I have been up to.

Back in a jiffy!

Yes I am still alive!

Unfortunately, my monitor is not! I will not be able to post any cards until I can get a new one or refurbished one. So until then, may your days be many and very blessed.

What I have been up to

This is what I have been up to lately. Cutting out, placing foam tape between each layer to give the 3-D affect. Using some gold/silver border stickers to enhance the card. I even used stickles to make the wings of the butterfly to make them glittery.



Here is another view of the dimension. Butterflies seem to be my favorite!



Same butterfly, different paper for the background. Too bad the glitter doesn't show in the photos like they do in real life!



Another close up to show the dimension.



This is a workshop I offer (email me if you are interested in the kit, or want finished cards), with (be still my heart) butterflies! Count them, seven! These would be great for any occassion.



Thank you for stopping by, and may you have a blessed day!

Just a couple of cards

Here I have 2 beauties, The morning glory is colored with Prisma Pencils and blended with a stump. The saying on the inside can be seen when you click onto the picture.



Here is the front of the card. Not too bad for a novice, if I must say so myself.



This card is using a used dryer sheet and glitter. Really looks better in person. LOL. Don't we all say that?



These cards sell for $3.50 each. If you would like to know how to do these cards and others, come on over for a card class.

Thanks for stopping by my little world.

I am still alive . . .

And well, although you wouldn't know it.

I am still creating cards and working on workshops. I have my card workshops in Thorndike at the Scrap-N-Yak-Shack Thursdays from 10am to 3pm. Interested? Call for more details 207-570-8282.

Happy Mother's Day card

Here is a Mother's Day Card that measures 4 1/4 inches by 5 1/2 inches. This card has a matching envelopebox included. You may click on the photo to enlarge it.



When you untie the ribbon the card unfolds and shows not two sides on the inside but 4 sides. You can even add photos to this if you desire.



The greetings and the butterflies were stamped and colored with spica markers, which gives a sparkly shimmer to them. These photos do not do it justice, lots prettier in person.

The cost of this one is $7.50, with shipping extra.

This is the perfect card for the Mother in your life. If you are interested in this or any other card, please email me at katsscrapping@yahoo.com. I check my mail at least twice a day, so I will get back to you as soon as I read it.

Thank you for stopping by.
