for an eight year old girl

I made the following cards for an eight year old girl. Her mom made the request at my card party and I had a total blast making these cards for her. The little girl's favorite colors are green, orange and purple. I mean could I possibly choose a better color palette?? So much fun and the DCWV Nana's Kids stack was full of that deliciousness. Plus glitter which all girls simply L O V E!!

I colored the owls with her favorite colors since they are such cute owls!! They are from Paper Smooches and are so much fun!! They have a ton more sets of stamps that I would kill to have. Of course I would have to win the lottery or suddenly fall into money excess but they are fun to drool over and dream about.

I used my Spellbinders Nesties to cut out the images that I stamped. And did some embossing with my Cuttlebug. Totally fun cards to work on!

Here is another of the Paper Smooches critters that I have. So darn cute!! I used the scraps from creating the other cards to do the background on the chickie cards. Plus using my border punch and sewing machine. And no card is complete without some bling!!

This is the card box that all eight cards are stored in. I am very happy with how this set turned out.

May your day be full of bling and happy colors!!

I am working very hard on my orders from my card party. I lost a few days when I was hit with a cold. And hit me it did. I was wiped out. Stuffy, chills, runny nose, cough, hot flashes and some aches and pains thrown in for good measure. I seem to be on the upswing and can manage to sit at my desk for longer than a minute which is helpful when creating!

Sharing some samples I made for the card party. This is a card drawer box that I love to make. It holds about eight cards with their envelopes. Could probably get ten inside as long as they were flat. I made this one out of a heavy pattern paper. I think it is a Basic Grey but can't remember. It is very pretty with the greens.

This is my card box that I totally love doing. It can hold eight cards and are so much fun to make. I made this one out of Basic Grey and yes I remember that since I LOVE the paper. I don't have a link to the instructions. I wrote them out from a video I think. I'll have to see if I can find it again.

And the card purse. These are great too!! These can hold from ten to sixteen cards. Again it depends on how thick the cards end up being. I believe this is Basic Grey paper. As you can see I went on a Basic Grey binge and picked up many greens. I guess I will have to change my favorite color to green instead of purple. :)

Off to work on orders. I am getting into the groove and need to get working.

May your day be anything but Basic (Grey) LOL!!
