First is the fan mail card. Recently I purchased the Quickutz "Pop up door." This is a really fun die cut! Three sides are cut and one is perforated for easy bending. The Fan stamp is from SU and the House Mouse Stamp was found at a great little store in Colorado Springs called Simple Pleasures. I only shop at this store once a year while on vacation. Love it! 
My daughter and I hit another little scrapbook store in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Great store by the name of The Kraftin Post. I found some great Heidi Grace papers. It is kind of hard to tell by the pictures, but, some of the paper is flocked. Loved the colors. Can mix with olive, navy, lime, light blue or white!!
I have had some Heidi Grace embellishment pins that matched perfectly!! I bought them years ago - really!
I was really needing to add to my stash of sympathy cards, so made a few of those as well. I used some old SU Simply Scrappin materials for this card. Added a few pearls and a stamp and done!
Love this stamp. Doesn't take much more to finish the card. I did emboss the SU baroque swirl with versamark, old olive and clear powder. Then I added the sympathy stamp, pearls and done!
Used my Spellbinders scalloped rectangles for the inside. Yes, I know it's not exacting like I want it to be...
This was a fun card again using the pop up door die cut. This was the sample the store made for me when I was debating about purchasing the pop up door. They used great Bazzil paper, so I could not throw it away. Thanks Scrapbook Page in Kansas City!!
Again, used some old supplies from a Simply Scrappin kit. Don't you just love the circle? Goes great with the swirls on the paper.
Not sure I like this card. The peach card stock feels really dated. So I again used the baroque swirl stamp to help it along.
The next few cards I made to send to my sons. They are the best sons a mom could have. I like to send them stuff in the US mail. I think anyone loves something in the mail, don't you?? I put the "# 1 favorite" sticker on both their cards, because they are!! And so is my SWEET daughter!
And, last, but not least, I am always trying to come up with cards for my oldest son who is currently serving in the Navy. It may look a little corny, but I like it! Hope he does!
Just realized I forgot to take pictures of my daughter's birthday card. I'll have to get some pictures to share for next time... It was my first slider card thanks to Dawn of Dawn's stamping studio blog. I got SO excited when I saw how easy they were to make!! And with Walmart bags no less!! My incredible daughter-in-law and I made some over the 4th of July weekend when we went to see them. It was FUN!!
