Spring Fling 2012

I send these cards from my Tita Luz, cousin Lenny and co-former teachers that living in Virginia and Washington. Because it is Spring 2012 I decided to make a spring card for us. Us, I include myself too. I want a souvenir for myself too. I really like how it came. Very neat simple and elegant.

Again, from watching tutorials I again how to make a flower and add effects on. And from different cards that I saw it came like that.

Silhouette Wedding Card

We will attend a wedding this 2nd day of June. So I decided again my own card. I look around for some idea for the wedding card. By the way, I am avid viewers of "My Fair Wedding of David Tutera" and "Say Yes to the Dress".. So I found a site that selling a template for an arch or lace and for the whole card. And I search from the Silhouette a file that I can use for the wedding. I found that dole lace arch and cut it the upper portion of the arch. Because I wanted the pedestal will a little bit inside of the arch. From the real wedding I decorate my card by putting flowers, vines, bells and vows. To add embossed on the arch I use my pen and draw at the back of it. And I did that too on the bride's gown. Add also flowers on her gown. I used the flower punch for the bride's bouquet and adhered it one by one. I put double-sided tape to add dimension to the newly wed.

Mother's Day

For Mother's Day (though late for posting).. I made four designs for Mother's Day for my friends, cousin and family (sister and aunt). The reason why I made four different designs because mother's have different categories (for me)..So I said this design is best for her. Through watching and reading tutorials I know how to make my flowers beautiful. Dimensions and 3d effects. I really love making cards. It really makes me happy and fulfilled my day. Sometimes my husband says.."Oh you are still working on your card". But before I start busy I finished all my "real busy things". And I am delighted when a friend of my sis-in-law saying that I should volunteer on Art subject in a school. 

 I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut those flowers, heart shapes and scalloped for my base. And use Martha Stewart punch for small flowers glitter on top of those white flowers.

 Here I put rhinestone to add some effects on each flowers. I really love flowers.

 There are some mothers that wanted to be there always where their can possibly be. And I have friends and in-laws are like that. So I chose this design for them. I definitely sure yellow color and brown for a change is good.

And these cards was a combination of flower and a ribbon. I wanted to make a ribbon and flower in one so I look around how I can make it. Good that there's a blogs tutorial for that. This is not one flower die-cut. I designed leaf and makes a multiple copies of leaf. And one by one adhering. For scalloped I used Fiskars to add a little bit style. And for the Best Mom I used die cut from Sizzix. Then my husband suggests that I should used "blue" for the ribbon because it signifies NUMBER 1 or Best. So instead of making new one I use the ROYAL BLUE as the top of this card. Rhinestone added. It came out right even though I used white card stock on other card for "For You"
