Anyway, I didn't take much in the way of materials with me and figured I would go ahead and make a few cards. In the 4 hours I was there, I made a total of 4 cards. Not much...but I had a great time socializing and spending time with dear friends.
Here are the cards I made....
Simple Note Card
For the 1st card I used up the left over paper scraps from the Birthday card I made earlier in the week.
Supplies:
To make the card, I took a 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of black cardstock and cut it down to an A2 size card. After I scored and folded the card, I then cut off a portion from the right front edge. I then used some scrap paper I had from the All Dressed Up stack and cut the 2 sections from the same sheet of paper to cover the front of the card that can be seen. Next I adhered a some skittles to the insite of the flowers on the paper.
Celebrate Card
Supplies:
- Black Cardstock
- DCWV - La Creme matstack
- Creative Memories Valentine Power Palette
For the outside cover I selected one of the papers with a velvet feel and trimmed the paper to fit in the center of the front - leaving just a slight border on either side. For the inside, I selected a piece of paper that had a linen look to it. I thought this would show off the sentiment best as well as be easy to write a message on. I trimmed the selected paper to cover the entire inside.
Last, I selected the "Celebrate" sticker from the CM Valentine Power Palette pack and adhered it to the inside of the card.
I figure this will make a nice, simple Birthday card...although it could also be used for any other celebratory occasion.
The owl sticker in the CM Valentines Power Palette was so adorable that I just had to use him on a card.
Supplies:
Beige Cardstock
- Brown Cardstock
- Pink Ribbon
- Hole Punch
- Studio G Wooden Stamp with Friendship sentiment
- Memento Ink in Rich Cocoa
- Creative Memories Rotary Trimmer with Deckle Blade
- Creative Memories Valentine Power Palette
Valentines Card
The last card is a Valentines Day card and is a collaborative effort between myself and Vicki.
Supplies:
- Brown Cardstock
- Creative Memories Valentine Power Palette
- Creative Memories "Love Struck" Border Punch
- Creative Memores Rotary Trimmer with Deckle Blade

On the inside, I covered the brown cardstock with white cardstock to make it easier to be able to write a message. I selected the "Be Mine" sentiment sticker from the CM Valentine Power Palette and adhered it. I used the hearts that I puched out from the border on the front on the corners for that "extra" touch.
Well, there you have all 4 cards. I hope you've enjoyed them all. I would love to hear what you think of them...so leave me a comment. :-) Have a great weekend!
