A Smile for Haili

I made this card for a beautiful young lady. She is not only a beautiful girl, but a very lovely person. I have known her since she was in Kindergarten and now she is in high school, whew - hard to believe how fast time flies!!! She got braces yesterday, and just wanted to let her know that we were thinking about her and wishing her well.
I am also entering this into the BBTB2 contest.

Valentine's Card for Hubby

I made this card and decided to give it to my husband for Valentine's Day. I know - a lot pink - but it is Valentine's Day. He loved it anyway, maybe more for the sentiment than the actual card, but he loved it all the same.
Details:
Flower - Plantin School Book Cricut Cart, Grunge Flower Technique
(This was my first try at it - I think it came out pretty good although it could use some inking.)
Love - Beyond Birthdays Cricut Cart
Tonic Border Punch System - Hearts Punch
Stitching & Ribbon
My Pink Stamper Stamps - "I Love You" & "My Sweet One" on the inside.

Some News, Flowers, and a Thank You Card

So the news is that I spoke to someone that owns a local craft store in Maine. I asked her if she would consider selling some hand made embellishments in her store. I asked if I could send her some of my flowers to see if she liked them & if she would be able to sell them in her store. She said, yes & that she would run them past some groups to see if this is something that they would buy that come in to craft.

This is a pic of the flowers that I sent her to "test" to see if they are "sellable".
This is a pic (using one of my flowers) of the Thank You card that I sent to her for giving me this opportunity.
I used the Beyond Birthdays Cricut Cart. for the Thank You.
Tonic Border Punch System with the Pinwheels Punch for the border.
