Indiana Jones Lego card

This weekend one of the neighbor kids was having a Legos Indian Jones themed birthday, so I wanted to make a card that would match.

Using punches I was able to create this adorable card. I did have to pull out the paper snips to make a few simple cuts. 
 
 The hardest part is drawing out the details on his face and clothes. I used this picture from the invitation for guidance.

I had so much fun creating it.
For more details on the punches I used check out my projects page by clicking HERE.

Punch Art Easter Bunny Card

I just love how this card turned out.
I added texture to the base of my card using my Handy Dandy Big Shot and the Stampin' Up! Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Folder.
Thats a lots of words for a simple folder that adds dots to my card stock.

I just love my Big Shot. I also used it to cut the Top Note out to create this Certainly Celery on Whisper White Frame.

If you don't have a Big Shot yet, Contact me at ginadygert@yahoo.com and  I can show you can get it at a discount or for FREE!

Pick a Petal Christmas Angel

I have made several variations of this Christmas Angel using the Pick a Petal stamp set. 

Remember you do not have to use a set the way it was intended. This one was to make flowers. I like the beauty it adds to her dress. I have also made a Get Well card featuring this set before. 

Do you own this stamp set? I would love to see what you have made using the Pick a Petal stamp set. 
I might even post your cards here on my blog (with your permission). Send your creations to ginadygert@yahoo.com

*I have added another picture to show you another view. She is a Christmas tag. Her Halo is made from punching a 1" circle punch into a Brushed Gold card stock. Then punch a 1 1/4" circle punch around it.

Snowman Christmas Tag

Christmas Tags can dress up any gift. 

This tag was created by mounting a snowman created from punches onto a piece of Taken with Teal card stock. 

What a great color for Christmas!

Do you recognize all the punches?

Circles are easy, but the nose. Now that was created by sliding a piece of Pumpkin Pie card stock into the Star punch. Just enough to get the triangle shape I wanted. 

His branch arms are crafted from the Stampin' Up Jumbo Snowflake punch. I just trimmed off a branch. 

The cute To & From stamp is part of the Winter Post stamp set while the snowflakes come from the Level 2 hostess Christmas Punch Stamp set.

Wandering Words Thanksgiving card

Happy Thanksgiving. 

 I love pumpkins for Thanksgiving. 
I couldn't resist making a Thanksgiving card using a Pumpkin. 

Using the flowing leaves from the Wandering Words stamp set and Stampin' Write markers I created a colorful stamped image.

Pumpkin Pie Recipe Card

With Thanksgiving coming I thought I would share my favorite Pumpkin Pie recipe. Don't forget to top your pie with cool whip.

A little punch art helps to dress up this page. I used the large and small oval punch. 

The secret to making this card is to sponge around the edges of each oval before putting it together.
