My "Travel Tales" Project

Below is a short video of my "Travel Tales" project.  This pattern is originally designed by Kathy Files of Paper Phenomenon fame.  Below the video is a link to her blog (where you can purchase the tutorial and see the rest of her amazing projects) and her ustream videos (4 parts) that will guide you through creating your very own "Travel Tales" project.  Please leave a comment - I enjoy them!





Wish Upon a Star

Here is a very bright pink & lime green birthday card.  I think this yarn is called an eyelash yarn - I had some left over from making a scarf a few years ago - and it's a Lion Brand yarn (if I remember correctly).

Drivin' By Birthday Card

Here's another masculine birthday card, this one made with license plate paper from Tim Holtz.  I really enjoy his paper stacks because they have lots of papers I can use for the men in my family.

Been Ridin' Long?

Here's a simple card for my nephew.  Of all my family members, he's the one I have the toughest time making cards for every year for his birthday!

Hippo Birthday

A little girl's birthday card.





Little Girl Easter Card

This is a simple card using only one stamp set.
(I know that's rare for me!)


Supplies

Easter Flowers Card

Notice this card is made from the same stamp set - Elements of Style, but using a coloring technique rather than Perfect Pearls gives the card a different look.  I'm not sure where the original design is from, but thank you Pam for the idea from Stampin' Up 10-Club!


Easter Bear Card

Here's a fun to make Easter card.
