WOW!


Frog Flowers Card
Originally uploaded by emariecards
Love it! Just love it! This card has one of the new stamps I was talking about that I use the blender pen on. I am just in love with the color palette, the frog, everything. I can't get enough of this one. (I know, it's just a card, but you have to agree, it's cute!) :)

Friendly Flower

After I finished this one, I thought I should have put the ribbon near the bottom of the flower. But, the more I look at it the more it's growing on me (no pun intended). Hmmm...

Watercolors

I received a bunch of new stamps for my birthday. I really like them because I can use a blending pen and color them in. It looks like watercolors. It adds so much to the card!

More Flower Power


For you Flower Card

I bought a new paper punch and have used it a whole lot lately--as you can tell!

Neato!

I think this card is cool. The flowers are 3D and pop off the paper. It all came together nicely!

Tulips!

It's cold outside and there is lots of snow. Here's a great card to send to someone for all the wonderful Christmas gifts or for whatever reason--that is seasonal! :)

Anniversary Card

My grandma asked me for some anniversary cards. I thought this one turned out cute because it isn't the usual pink, red, or white.

This is the same card as the previous one just different colors. Which one do you like better? My vote goes to the yellow and red one, but I do like this one a lot too!

I need a new camera!

Man, I just can't get my photos to not be blurry lately. This card is way cuter than this pic shows. I just love it. I hope you can see past the blur!!!

One of my many nephews just turned 6. He's lost 3 teeth already! I'm so proud. This is his first year in school all day everyday. I made this "schooly" card for him, since he is such a pupil! :)

Dinosaur Birthday Card

My 3 year old son was invited to a birthday party last week and the little girl whose birthday it was loves dinosaurs. I like the colors. I don't think I would have thought to put them together before. But if a dinosaur can sport those colors than so can an emarie card!! :)

Brother's Birthday


Guy Birthday Card
Originally uploaded by emariecards
My brother Tim's birthday is December 28th. I made this one for him. Pretty much just like the other one for my dad. I love this guy-look-thing for cards. Most cards for guys you buy are dumb and unoriginal!!! If you want my opinion! :)

I don't know about you, but we have a lot of birthdays in our family this time of year. It makes for interesting Christmas shopping that's for sure. I made this card for my dad whose birthday is December 4th. I like this one because it's manly but not cheezy or commercial looking. It's got the homemade feel with a guy look!

Fall is Here

I made this card using scraps my mother-in-law gave me. I have no idea what I would use this for, but I'm sure someone could find a reason.

My fifth nephew was born this past week. I used the first photo ever taken of him and made this welcoming card. The photo is so great, I think I could use it for other baby boy cards too! :)

More Xmas Talk


'tis the season card
Originally uploaded by emariecards
I would love for this to be the Xmas card I send to everyone, but man it's not easy to make. I made it last year for someone and I really liked it. I'm glad I actually made it again. I can't believe I remembered. Perhaps, I'll send it to only some people...I've still got a little time to think about it I guess. It is only October!

I know it's no where near Christmas yet, but when you're thinking about making all 50-60 of your Xmas cards 'tis the season! I love the paper on this one. It's a real easy card to make, but I don't feel it's the right card for a mass mailing. It looks store bought.

I spent the weekend at a scrapbooking event. I have never been to one of those before and I'm not a scrapbooker. But I brought my stamps and made cards. It was nice to have a whole weekend to work on stuff. My goal was to make 100 cards, but I only got to 78. I guess that just shows that I made sure to have fun too!! :) This cupcake card is one of my favorites.
