365 Days of Cards

La Vie En Rose is perfect for Birthday cards. All supplies are retired but it was fun to make a formal looking birthday card! Have a great Friday and weekend with your friends and family.

Today's Throwback Thursday card does not go that far back! I am using the recently retired La Vie En Rose paper pack, the stamp set that goes with the new Flower Market Cricut Cartridge and some black and gold ribbon .  I previously made a drapery flower fold card and the directions are here . This card is perfect for birthday, first day of a new job, wedding. It is very versatile. 

Mini cards are so easy to make and go perfect with goodies you give to co-workers, neighbors or friends. They also work as quick thank you notes. I created these 2 mini cards using the La Vie En Rose paper pack, Cricut Artistry cartridge, gold shimmer trim and treasured puffies.  I stamped the Hi  in Colonial White Ink. The sentiment is from the Happy To Be Friends stamp set.  The cards are 3" x 3" and each layer is cut 1/4" smaller. 

La Vie En Rose  is the perfect paper pack for birthday cards. I created this birthday card for my sister-in-laws whose birthday is next week. I also used the Findings the Words stamp set. The black buttons are from a retired embellishment pack from Close to My Heart. 

This pretty little bird from Sunshine Birdies  is perfect with the paper from La Vie En Rose paper pack. I colored the birdy with my ShinHan markers. I am not sure what I will use this card for, but it is perfect for Thank You, Birthday or a just because card.

I have made 75 cards so far this year! This week I am challenging myself to use the stamp sets that came with my numerous Cricut Cartridges . Today's card is using the La Vi En Rose paper pack and the Cricut Artistry cartridge. I also added some black and gold ribbon  and Treasured Puffies . 

I finally got time to sit down tonight to craft. We tackled organizing and cleaning the garage and kitchen today so most of my day was eaten up doing that! However, I spent a little bit of time tonight create this La Vie En Rose  thank you card. It was a simple card using scraps but looks very elegant. I used the For a Friend  stamp set and cut the tag with the Art Philosophy Cartridge. 

I am going to be gone at a conference next week so I wanted to leave some card's for my husband and son while I am gone. I create this simple card using my Artbooking cartridge and the La Vie En Rose  paper pack.

Today I need one more Valentine's Day card for a friend who loves owl. I found the perfect owl stamp set and paired it with La Vie En Rose  paper pack and Poppy and Pixie ink. How many Valentine's Day cards did you send out this year?

I had some scraps left of La Vie En Rose  and made one more Valentine's Day Card. I promise this weekend's card will be something different!

Yes another La Vie En Rose card! The paper is so versatile and the January Stamp of the Month matches the paper so perfectly.  Enjoy! 

   I used the  La Vie En Rose to make this "Hello friend" card. The card is 4 "x 4" and I cut the flower from the Art Philosophy Cartridge from Close to My Heart. It is Flower 4 at 2 3/4". I used the Friendship Wreath  stamp with Poppy ink. I also added a strip of gold shimmer trim  and a black button.  

I have numerous birthday cards to mail this week but am using up my stash this week. Valentine's Day will be here before we know it so I thought I would start making Valentine's Day cards. I ordered the La Vie En Rose for the black and white paper as it was stunning. However, I have come to LOVE the Poppy cardstock and ink and now need to order an entire pack of Poppy Cardstock! I also used the Treasured Puffies  and black and gold ribbon . The January Stamp of the Month was perfect to use for this paper pack and for Valentine's Day Card.
