thank goodness for thickers!

and other "pre-made" products that look great right out of the package! because for someone who spends such a large amount of her time making greeting cards, it never fails to amaze me that i can still COMPLETELY SPACE on an important birthday...in this case that of TWIN friends of mine...yiiiiiiiiiiikes! but with the help of the aforementioned letter stickers, some diecut shapes, and a few other bits & bobs i was able to whip up a couple of fast cards last night! behold!

*HIS*

(patterned paper: mme, basic grey; glitter paper: dcwv, best creations; letter stickers: american crafts, making memories; circle sticker: memories complete; other: dymo labeller, colorbox inks)

...and *HERS*!

(patterned paper: fancy pants, prima, basic grey; letter stickers: american crafts, making memories; circle sticker: memories complete; flowers: prima, making memories; brads: my mind's eye; bling: recollections)

  3. I'm not sure which one I love more. These are terribly awesome (not terrible, just beyond awesome). Maybe cause they are great colors and visually interesting and well, all the things your creations always are!!!

  7. I am not into thickers but looking at these I must give it a try ...They are both gorgeous but "Hers"is definitely my favorite. That card just took my breath away! Not only because of the thickers but also the flowers; gorgeous!

  8. I love the second card, but I also love the first card ! I see you've used the Dymo labeler..is that the dymo tape for the Happy Birthday ? I just bought a new labeler and I'm going to try using it with the Core'dainations paper.
