It's a card making fest...

My Saturday Adventures consisted of card making.  I needed to get a birthday card, a graduation card, 2 father's day cards, and one just because card done.  This first card is the graduation card.  It's hard to see in the picture but the red is a kind of speckled paper and has a nice texture to it.

This is the design for the father's day cards.  The colors didn't come out very good on these photos for some reason.  Could it be that I really shouldn't hold the camera because I can't hold it still ?  Probably...  I made this more for my dad who will appreciate the wheels and gears.  I absolutely love the gears stamp - it will make a nice background for lots of things.  It's a rather funky design - love it !

Mother's Day Cardmaking

So this Mother's Day I decided to try something a little different.  I saw these really cute paper layered flower medallion's on a website and thought - I can make that.  I was pretty happy with the look of the flower but not so much with the height of the flower.  It pretty much makes putting the card in an envelope nearly impossible.  I think I needed to choose a different color brown for the saying or maybe I needed to change the look of the music by printing it off in brown ?  All in all - it was a pretty good card.
