Beauty Baby Blue Card

Beauty Baby Blue Card
Hello all!
 
All those who see my work occasionally know that I always make a mistake or two but I end up loving those mistakes. For this card, I used the wrong glue on some of my flowers and when I added glitter, the glitter clumped up into balls. So once the flowers dried, I added some all purpose glue and just poured the glitter on! Take a look below.

Wedding Card

Wedding Card
Today, I would like to show you an example of a Wedding Card that I completed with very few flowers! I usually use tons of mulberry paper flowers, but this time I decided to work on using different paper styles, colors, and die-cuts. I am normally a straight forward person and like using patterned cards ready for decorating, but I measured and cut my own and tried different styles and arrangements for this particular card. Take a look below.

  • Square bling rhinestone
  • ONE mulberry paper flower
  • TWO mulberry paper leaves
  • Wedding Bells chipboard die-cut
  • Damask lace

And a little update about Rosie my new puppy...
 
Wedding Card_CdeBacaCraftsCard
Rosie just had surgery on her eye.
Wedding Card_CdeBacaCraftsCard
Here's my cat - Ike - the KING of everything... He doesn't like new things... He decided to scratch poor Rosie's pupil out.

This is the look he gave me when I told him Rosie had to have surgery and that it isn't cheap.
Rosie is already home and doing fine!

Zebra Fun Card

Zebra Fun Card
For today, the card example I am going to show you is a little different. This type of card is specifically designed for children and hopefully sheds a little knowledge on them. I like to think of fun ways to teach my kids about things especially when it comes to zoology. That is the best part about biology, which is my job. Inside the card I created a rhyming poem about Zebras - you may laugh, giggle, or cry - but I think it is sufficient to get the point across about the fun and beautiful Zebras! I always like to have a positive attitude and, of course, be funny or a little sarcastic. Children should have fun when learning. When they enjoy learning, their self-esteem builds.
Take a look below and hope you like it! I hope it puts a smile on your face. Once again, I am not ashamed to be a little nerdy. *haha*

Zebra Fun Card Poem
Zebras are social.
Zebras are nice.
Zebras are mammals,
with black and white stripes.
 
They belong to the horse family,
and sleep standing up,
during an attack,
they like to huddle up.
 
They form a circle,
to care for the young.
The male stallion will ward off,
the threat of wild dogs.
 
Zebras have four gaits.
And zebras eat grass.
A zonkey is a hybrid,
between a zebra and an ass.
 
Zebras are not domesticated,
but horses are.
While zebras stand out,
like a bright twinkling star.
 
A zebra's ears,
will tell you its mood.
Straight up is happy,
backwards is rude.
 
An amazing creature,
A Zebra sure is,
an amniotic tetrapod,
full of magic and bliss.

I always arrange the flowers and any embellishments before I start gluing things on.
Based on the occasion for the card, I try to style it reflecting a type of mood.
For this particular card, it is intended for a person who loves to collect
gorgeous porcelain figurines, loves to hike, and always has
something kind to say about you. Her favorite color
is purple. This is how I decide which colors
to use and how I should arrange the
flower.
