A dabble of this a dabble of that...Wedding Invites ratta tat tat!


WOW... I (Rachael) thought I would never see the day where I'd considered doing wedding invites, but here we go. I think it might just work (orders 150 and under). Keep in mind that the invites are totally made from all the
same material that I use for cards. No special printing, just handmade creativity. You can click on the photo to get a bigger look! I've never made Wedding invites before, so if you see something I missed or is out of place, I am truly sorry! I will tweak and nip and tuck and get it just right!
(Church instructions would be on back of Reception card as to save paper and money and a small envelope will be included for the RSVP card)

Fall Cards!

I made this fun card with a spiderweb embossing folder by Cuddlebug. and Spider stamp was applied with a pigment stamp specially for embossing power (you'll need an embossing gun) I can do a future tutorial on that. I used Clear embossing powder.
You may need to click on this photo to see the cute pumpkin embossing in the paper.













I got a little carried away with busy-ness, but it's neat. I think?

Christmas Cards!

Now is the time to make your Christmas Card orders. They make WONDERFUL gifts as people are always needing cards. It's so convenient to have cards available on late notice and if you're anything like me (Rachael), you wait until the last minute or you're so busy that you forget to buy one in advance. Having a pack on hand should prevent these mishaps from happening and allow you to think about other things and not have you worrying about making a run the the store for just "one thing" that turns into 20 things and a $100 bills later. So, in all actuality, this will save you money! (I like positive thinking don't you?)
Order Now! (please)

New Cards!


I had inspiration for this top card, but I got really carried away with making it my own. The original was beautiful, but I really liked adding just a little bit more to it.


This also was some inspiration. You may have seen cards like this already. I have just added a few little touches of my own and made it look a bit more busy then most I've seen.


I may have made just one or two changes to this one. I really liked the original the way it was and wanted to see if I could make it too. I used a different embossing folder (Cuttlebug Embossing Folder).


This was a Rachael original. I did have inspiration, but completely took it in a different direction and I think it turned out pretty good.






This is very similar to the inspiration card that I found. I found different ribbon that I liked a little more then the original.

This is my own creation and so much fun putting the little touches on this one. It's a nice Male birthday card. I need to make more male cards and have actually gotten requests to make some more custom cards such as off the wall things like "Happy Divorce", "Congratulations loosing #lbs) and so on. I suppose I'll make a card pack of 6 and put them up for sale!!





I got a card order to make some Happy Birthday from All kind of cards. That was fun. I found some really great pictures I could use from one of my art software cd's.
