Introducing Audrey


Hi Everyone,
I am pretty excited because I have just entered this card into my very first challenge at The Greeting Farm. I made this card for my friend's little girl, who is not so little anymore. I colored it using Tria markers on Tria paper. The message is an embossing folder from Crafts Too. Thanks for stopping by. Tanya R.

Welcome Eli!


Hi Everyone,
I have to admit that I have not been working in my craftroom too much these days. We finally have some sunshine, but most of all, I have injured my finger and it is now in a brace. The doctor's say that I should try to avoid using it. Considering it is my right index finger, that is not an easy task. So even now typing this is a challenge, but I wanted to still share some designs I have done recently. This one is to welcome my friend's little boy into the world. He is a cutie. I used a dreamweaver stencil for the carriage. I glued and glittered the de-bossed side. The background is a rubber stamp I picked up at Michael's awhile ago and the congratulations is embossed with white embossing powder. I have to start a card now for her baby shower and I hope to show that to you soon. Thanks for stopping by.

Welcome Paris!

This card was made for my friend's new arrival, Paris. The teddies stomach is in the shape of a heart and covered in white fun flock to give it a soft touch. I colored the bear with Tria markers to give it more depth. Thanks for dropping by. Tanya.

Popcorn Bear Tags

I got a wonderful package of popcorn bear chipboard tags from Simply Cards & papercraft magazine and so I have been creating these great cards with them. The first one is for my Mother-in-law for Mother's day. I found that this paper from K&Company went really well with the daisies in the background of the tag.

And this card was made for my Mother on Mother's day.



This card was for my friend on her retirement. This was a perfect tag because she is an avid gardener. The paper I chose is DCWV. I am sure that you will see more of these tags in my future designs cause they are just so darn cute.

Birthday boys

I finally have a moment to catch up on some posts. I have been noticing a pattern of posting about once a month (I wish it was more). These pics are actually from April birthdays that all fall within a week of each other.

I made this card for my husband's birthday. I used DCWV papers and die-cuts for the hearts and "happy birthday".

This one was made for my father. The tree is an embossing folder from crafts too. I used chalks to color it and heat embossed the "hello" with burgundy powder.



I made this card for my brother's birthday. The bee stamps used are from Local King rubber stamps. I stamped "happy" twice and then cut out the yellow stripes.

Thanks for stopping by.
