Anniversary card for a friend

Anniversary card made for a friend...   Because of all the cold, snowy, weather that we have been having lately,  I was trying to make a spring card.    I wanted my "Love Birds" to look like robins, but I think I failed, but my friend seemed to like this card.
I colored the SweetnSassy Love birds stamp with copics.
added a lacy die around my image made by Die-namics.
I added a ribbon and stamped my sentiment with Memento Rich Cocoa ink.

Thank you card for a friend

I made this thank you card for a friend.  I again used one of my new dies from Serendipity Stamps..Teapot Die 020GD, I also used a die for my lace trim...It's from Mftstamps, Die-namics die  Dainty Lace Border.  Just added a ribbon and some dimensionals to pop up my Teapot.

I used the Serendipity teapot die 020GD.  I used Graphic 45 Designer paper for my background (I reluctantly cut my paper)  I really like Graphic 45 design paper, It's so pretty to look at...I almost hate to even cut any of it.  smile.  I added lace, and an oval cut from my spellbinder die and my Dienamics oval open scallop Doily die.  and a premade bow..

Another Tea Pot Tuesday Card...

This is another card I made for the Tea Pot Tuesday Challenge.  This card is actually a week late.  It's going to one of the tea potter's daughter, Deanna, and I wanted to be sure to get a card to her even if it is late.  Deanna has had a lot of medical issues...so please say prayers for her.  Thank You...

My card was made using a Stampin' Up embossing folder for the background (fancy fans)
Die-namics die to make my flowers,
and a Cheery Lynn die to make my vine...
added stick on pearls, and peel offs for the edge of my card.

Sugar Nellie...Winifred

This is another image colored by my husband with copics.  He used E00, E000, E0000,
R0000, G00, E51, R02, C00, R20, E41, C00, E39, E34, C3, Y11, E30, BG72, YG00.
The digi is from Funky Kits, Sugar Nellie image, Winifred.
He made the digi rather large so it's a 5 x 7 card.  He didn't want me to embellish it too much
so I just made a flower in the corner with my Die-namics die, colored the flower with copics to match the sweater, and added the vine with die from Cheery, Lynn, added some beads
