I've been busy!

It's been a while - but I've been busy.  I have been planning another charity card workshop.  I have 14 different card designs made into kits and ready to just be put together.  A portion of the purchase price of each card will be donated to Mosaic Pregnancy Center this time.

Here are some of my favorite designs -


Laced up - a design I got from my niece. 


Beehive - using a die cut I bought last year to make our beehive ornaments. 
Love the details on the envelope.


Split DSP - simple but cute! 
The DSP is cut in half and one piece is flipped to the design on the back.



Accordion fold - something a little different.  



Inside the card.


Tri-fold -  this is a fold I learned from my sister but haven't used for a while. 


When you untie the ribbon, it opens up and the circle pops through. 
You can open it further to write a note inside. 


Peek through - the sentiment is stamped on the inside of the card but shows through 
since the front is cut out. 


Fold Flat - this card folds up flat to fit in the envelope but when you take it out ...

it folds out to make a three dimensional display.  
I put a piece of white card stock on the back for a note and signature. 

And I have made a few cards for my own, 
trying to use up some of the retired colors and DSP that I have.  

Tangerine Tango,  More Mustard and Tempting Turquoise.  


Summer Starfruit, Tangerine Tango, Gumball Green and Chocolate Chip


Wisteria Wonder and Elegant Eggplant

And some gifts for some special friends - 

These are folders with pouches inside that will hold 2 packets of spiced cider mix.  


The ribbon needs trimmed but I will do that after I have added the spiced cider packets and tie the ribbon (and won't have to re-tie it again).
