Thinking of a Co-Worker
June 20, 2009Thinking of You
April 25, 2009A friend of mine asked me to make a card for a co-worker, and thankfully I happened to have checked out Amy’s wonderful card and had the tiniest of epiphanies =) I took a heck of alot of creative license with it though, but I was asked to make this card pretty simple. I used [...]
Kristen…Thinking of You
April 5, 2009A friend of mine asked me to make a card for him to give to a special female co-worker, and for some reason I kept being drawn to “elegance” as the design basis.

He recently had a pretty terrible bicycle accident, several surgeries, has lots of rehab ahead, so I want him to have a special card. The base is standard white cardstock, topped with Paper [...]

August 2, 2008For each kid and grandkid, hubby’s mom has always made a perfect Raggedy Ann or Raggedy Andy doll BY HAND (and sewing machine), complete with clothes and white & red striped socks and yarn hair. They’re absolutely adorable, Braeden has an Andy and Taylan has an Ann. So I made this card for The Parents [...]
