2 Share Tuesday!! :)

**edited to add my circle card is done using the wild card cartridge for my cricut! Thanks for the sweet comments on it!**

Happy SUNNY COLD Tuesday!!! :) - if your anywhere near me that is! LOL!! I love the sun.. so I wont complain.. but BRRR.. it was chilly this AM... :)

ANYWAY.. I have 2 shares for ya today! First up I have been wanting to make something like THESE .. that Betsy shared for awhile now.. so last night after the FABULOUS PTI blog hop.. I went up and worked on this little set.. inspired by the challenge at PTI I also did up the envelope!! :) (I just cut one of mine a bit larger then in half .. then sewed all around so it is nice and sealed when I put in the gift card!)


I am so gonna make more of these little cuties!! :) The hearts are done using some glimmer mist paper I made up with some of my new colors (this is my new addiction.. making fun paper and cutting shapes! LOL!) Used some BG (bittersweet from last year) and of course PTI.. ribbon, and stamp! I am LOVING my Tim Holtz ~ Antique Linen distress ink.. must order a refill! LOL!! Using it on EVERYTHING it seems! and of course PEARLS! Colored with my copics to match!! :)

Next is a little baby card for my cousin.. they just had a little girl.. NOW I had another idea in mind.. but it didnt look the way I had hoped so I SWITCHED to this.. and was happy I did.. again using PTI!!!


LOVE the button sets.. and my spica pens.. I WISH you could see them in the photograph.. they add such a nice little touch of sparkle!! (just and FYI for PTI fans.. the green (mint I believe) in set 2.. looks FABULOUS with spring moss ink! :) Lots more Antique Linen on this!! and PEARLS.. I think I use those on 90% of my cards.. LOL!! I LOVE them! Gonna send it off today! Hope she likes it!!

Thanks for stopping by!! Have a GREAT day!!

  19. Good morning Bethie, it has taken me all week since coming home from my Uncle's funeral to visit my pinkie friends. Thank you so much for your kind comment.

    I scrolled down to your pink Sat. post and it is so pretty and clever. I love the idea. My cousin does this kind of crafting and has every tool for making tags etc. She helped me make one when I visited her last Sept. I loved doing it. However, I know it is something I won't do. I hardly have time for quilting. Smile. I will come over and admire your clever crafts though. BIG happy smile here.

    Hugs, Jeanne
