I made a set of these 4 cards for my secret sister also. I was inspired by these cards I found on a blog I follow. These cards are a great way to use some scraps of patterned paper.
Supplies used: patterned paper from American Crafts, Curvy Verses stamp set, Night of Navy ink, Navy ribbon, Old Olive, Rose Red, Regal Rose, and Sky Blue cardstock
I made a set of these cards for my secret sister as part of her revealing gift. I had this card in my favorites on SCS. The only thing I changed was the ribbon color and the stamps I used. 
Supplies used: Certainly Celery, Real Red, Always Artichoke and Chocolate Chip cardstock, circle punches, chocolate ribbon, Chocolate chip ink
I made a set these thank you cards for my friend Jayme who is getting married on the beach in a couple of weeks. I copied the idea from my friend Amy who copied the idea from the Archiver's website. They were very simple to make. 
Kyle is turning 6 and he wants to have a Lego themed party. I decided I could easily make the invitations. I was out of Brillant Blue cardstock which saddened me because that is the color I really wanted to use but I used Real Red, Glorious Green and Yoyo Yellow cardstock and my 1 3/8 circle punch with some pop-dots and here is what they look like:
And here is a closer look at one of them. The above picture is kinda blurry but you get the idea. 
I made a set of these cards recently for Sheri. They are similar to these I made before for Jessica except I made a boy version. 
Supplies used: Brocade Blue, Sage Shadow and Night of Navy cardstock; SU retired patterned paper; scallop and 1 3/8 circle punches; Night of Navy ink; Very Punny stamp set.
Then I made a set of cards for Jessica. I used several cards for inspiration. 
Supplies used: Bordering Blue, Night of Navy and White cardstock; Very Punny and Warmest Regards stamp set; Night of Navy ink; Square and Oval punches.
I made a set of cards for each of Kaitlyn's teachers (she has two main ones) for the end of the year. I spent all yesterday working on these cards and then even made a little post-it note keychain similar to these, and then the little turkey overslept, missed the bus and didn't go to school. She really didn't have to be there for these last two days anyway but still. So I told her she had to go tomorrow -- mainly to take these gifts I worked so hard on!
Anyway, 
I used Chocolate Chip, Taken with Teal and White cardstock, Taken with Teal ink, 1 3/4 inch circle punch, scallop punch, Seeing spots and Antique Upper Alphabet stamp sets and some ribbon I had laying around. These are really simple cards but I hope her teachers enjoy them.
Paula and I went to Eclectica on Saturday for their make and takes for NSD (National Scrapbook Day). They had two that you paid for (my post for later in the week, maybe tomorrow) and then these two cards that were free. 
I went to a crop last weekend at my Creative Memories consultant's house for NSD. We made a card using her sketch and our free gift (which was a pack of 3x3 squares). 
Sorry for the orange background, it was the only paper I had handy here at school to make a background with quick.
I made a set of these cards for a girl at church. Her shower was Sunday. I had some extra pieces so I also made a gift card instead of a little tag.
Supplies used: white card base, Brocade Blue and Sage Shadow accents, old SU patterned paper, All in the Family stamp set, scallop punch, 1 3/8 circle punch, word window punch, everyday saying rub-ons,
I have another baby shower to attend this afternoon. I made a set of these cards for the mother to be this time. I had this card in my favorites folder at splitcoast. Then the creator of that card had linked this card as her inspiration. There is hardly any stamping, just a lot of use of punches.
I made a set of 12, using 3 different DSP (though from the same pack). Here is the three different styles and then a closer look at one of them. 
Supplies used: Pink card base from Hobby Lobby, Pale Plum, Perfect Plum and Regal Rose SU cardstock, white cardstock, SU patterned paper, 1 1/2 circle punch, 1/2 inch circle punch, silver brads, Thanks stamp from Live Your Dreams set, Perfect Plum ink, Plum ribbon, white gel pen
Kaitlyn and I went with Kelley to Archiver's on Saturday and did the make and takes. These two were free. We made a little journal card and a circle Thanks card.
Here are the ones I made. 
I had two baby showers to attend last Saturday (at the same time). Here are the cards I made for Amy. I cased this card and then made a small 3x3 with some let over pieces as my gift tag. 
Supplies used: So Saffron card base, Regal Rose accents, Georgia Peach DSP, Rose 3/4 inch ribbon, Chocolate chip ink, All in the Family stamp set, Scallop punch, 1 3/4 circle punch, SU markers.
I have two baby showers to attend on Saturday. I made a set of thank you cards for one of the girls. I used this card for inspiration. 
Supplies used: Pale Plum card base, Perfect Plum and Pretty in Pink accents, Old SU patterned paper, scallop punch, circle punch, Baby stamp from the Tag Time.
And Kaitlyn decided she wanted to make a card too. Here is her version:
I am back from my scrapbooking retreat and I completed 20 pages! Not as many as I had planned to finish but still good. I will be posting them over the next several days.
My friend Dianne made about 35 cards this weekend. I took some pictures and she gave me permission to post them here. They all turned out really nice. Here are just a few:
She even made matching envelopes!
Way to go Dianne!
I got this Christmas card the other day in the mail from my friend Jane. It is too pretty to not share. I wish I could take credit for this card, I love the way she used the silver on the back and then a separate piece of green for the front. The trees are embossed in silver and the Merry Christmas is embossed in red. The she even put some red bling on it! Gorgeous!
I was so productive craftly speaking this weekend. I went to a crop on Friday night and then also scrapped at my BIL's on Sat. night and Sun. night. Since my stuff was so organized from me going to the crop it was easy to grab it and take it with me. I got 13 pages complete!!! Well almost complete, I am working on typing up the journaling now and then I will adhere those when I get home. I think that is more pages complete than I have done in 6 months so I am super excited about that. My last few pages were starting to look awfully boring though so I think all my creativity had left me by then. I will have all those to post in the days to come so watch for that. I also made 10 Christmas cards. I got the first finished at the crop and then it was easy to cut the pieces and put them together on Saturday morning.
Here is the picture but keep in mind that my little camera I keep in my purse in broke. The screen is cracked and just shows black. I can still take a picture but I have no idea what I am taking a picture of. This one is actually not too bad and at least it will show you the card. I am too excited about my progress to have to wait to share anything yet. I will try and take a better picture when I get home. 
Supplies used: Red Riding hood base for the card, random Christmas DP, Gable Green for the scallop square, 2.5 inch scallop square punch (thanks Amy), 2 inch square punch, markers, celery ribbon and several hot spot Christmas stamps from Archiver's.
ETA: here is a better picture of one of the cards:
Archiver's had another free make and take this weekend. Here are the two things I made:
We used a piece of acetate to stamp the tree and then shaded the card with the green ink and a sponge. Simple yet pretty!
And I really like this gift tag. I especially like the glitter red paper we used (not sure if you can see the glitter part real well in the photo but it really adds something extra to the tag). Amy and I think we have the two scallop squares (I have one and she has the next size up) so I hope to make some cute tags at the crop this Friday. 
Here are two cards I made the other day again with watercoloring. I have gotten to where I do that on pretty much every card I make lately. Most of the stamps I am picking up to use these days just beg to be watercolored. I also recently got the Prints Pack designed series paper that is the hostess gift in the SU catalog. I wanted to use some of that but just stared blankly at it for a while. Here is what I finally came up with.
Supplies Used: Ruby Red, Wild Wasabi prints, Cameo Coral cardstock; Flower stamp and Warm Words set; Watercolor crayons and aquapainter, oval punch, green brad.
Supplies Used: Ruby Red, Wild Wasabi prints, Garden Green, Vellum and Watercolor cardstock; Basic Black ink, watercolor crayons and aquapainter, flower stamp and wonderful words set, red brads
Here is a simple bee card I made the other night. I used Summer Sun for the base and Basic Black ink for the image and word. I used my watercolor wonder crayons and the aquapainter to color the bees. I then added brads and the gingham ribbon. 
I made these simple cards the other day while at my BIL's. I thought this little stamp needed bold brights. Funny how when I first started stamping that was my favorite color family and the one I first bought all the colors of. Now I rarely reach for it and certainly don't hardly ever do a card using just bold brights, but on these I did! I had also bought this ribbon at the Target dollar spot and it went perfect with the bold bright family.
Supplies used: YoYo Yellow, Brilliant Blue, Real Red Cardstock and ink; Rocket stamps, ribbon, blue and red brads.
