365 Days of Cards

Swan Lake is the perfect paper to coordinate with the This & That  stamp set. I really liked how it turned out. The teacher who I made this for loves swans so I was glad to have some of the paper left.

Today is the first day of winter break! I am so excited to have almost 2 weeks off to rejuvenate! This morning I decided to see how Swan Lake  would look as a Christmas card. I love how it turned out. I used the following CTMH supplies to create this card: Swan Lake Cricut Flower Market Collection Black Shimmer Trim

I continue to love all the colors in the Swan Lake paper pack. The December Stamp of the Month, Thoughtful Flowers coordinates perfectly with the paper pack. I decomposed the card by cutting the bottom 1 1/2" off the card and reattached them with Poppy cardstock. I colored the flowers with my ShinHan markers. Have a fabulous Monday!

I need a card for a student teacher in my building. She has been an amazing student teacher and will be an amazing teacher next year. I used the following Close To My Heart products : Swan Lake Finding the Words stamp set Black Ink Black Shimmer Ribbon

I realized today that one of the  Swan Lake  patterned papers has fall themed words on it. I decided I had better use it up and get some cards made using it! I also used the Picture My Life card included in the paper pack to make this simple card. Hopefully after tonight I can get back into my craft room and get back to some more detailed cards. Have a great Friday!

This is the last card for a card pack for Christmas. I am excited to be done almost two months early! I used Swan Lake  and the retired Hello friend stamp set. I copied the Swan Lake card from the Seasonal Expression.

I am working on a card set for Simon's teacher for Christmas. I am using the Swan Lake  paper pack for all of the cards. It is such a versatile paper pack with a wide variety of patterns and colors. I used the Friend stamp set from a constant campaign a few months ago. I also added Grey Enamel Gems  to give the card a little pop.

I finally had a chance to sit down and play with paper tonight after dinner. The boys went off to a hockey game and I worked on Christmas gifts. This card is from Swan Lake  paper pack and an old Stamp of the Month. This is going in a card pack to Simon's teacher for a Christmas gift.

I am working on a card pack for Simon's teacher for Christmas. I am creating all the cards out of the Swan Lake paper pack. Today I used Swan Lake and the Wise Guy  stamp set along with some white enamel gems. This is an easel card which is so easy to make. The card base is cut at 4 1/4" x 11" and then scored at 2 1/4" and 5 1/2". It is folded to create a mountain. The card face is cut at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". Here is the tutorial I used for measurements.

Swan Lake  is versatile with so many colors. I used Poppy cardstock and ink . I added white shimmer trim and enamels . This card will also go into a card pack for my son's teacher.

Another fabulous Birthday Card courtesy of Swan Lake. I used the Swan Lake paper pack, Flower Market Cricut Cartridge and a variety of shimmer trim colors.

Swan Lake and the retired Snowmen stamp set work together to create a create winter card that can be used for birthdays, thank you's or just a hello card. I added Silver shimmer trim to give the card a little pop!

Swan Lake  and the "4 My Friend" stamp set work together to create this beautiful card. This will be part of a card set I give to my son's teacher for Christmas. 

I used the new Swan Lake  paper pack tonight to make this beautiful Happy Birthday  card. You will see cards over the next two weeks using this rich paper pack. I also used the following Close To My Heart Products: Black Shimmer Trim Retired Sequins Poppy Ink 4 My Friend Stamp Set  (retired)

The Swan Lake paper pack has so many different designs. This paper is so rich and beautiful. I paired with the retired 4 My Friend stamp set and sequins. We are working on our basement remodel this weekend.I hope you have an amazing weekend with your family and friends.
