And all the rest!

While I've highlighted some of the cards I'm bringing to the craft fair on March 23, I haven't posted all of them. That changes now. 

4.25 x 5.5 in, 110lb card stock in white, 65lb card stock in brown, front features a yellow or blue car made from card stock pieces; the banner reads: "just married!" and the license plate reads: truelove

 4.25 x 5.5 in, 110lb card stock, front reads: "many thanks from the bottom of my heart"

 4.25 x 5.5 in, 110lb card stock, front reads: "celebrate!" and features a hand-made vellum pouch full of confetti. (yay, confetti!)

4.25 x 5.5 in, 110lb card stock, front reads: "congrats!"

4.25 x 5.5 in, 110lb card stock, front reads: "yay for you!"

Weddings and a Hint of Spring

Rounding out my card collection for the craft fair are wedding and easter themed cards.


I resisted the urge to make a card referencing "how tweet it is." Instead, I got only semi-sappy with some love birds.

Love Birds, on a cake:

8.5 x 4 in, 110lb card stock, front reads: "love birds" with hand-cut cardstock birds, ribbon, and cake; heart embellishments done with mini-punch; attached with Zots and Elmer's Craft Bond. Inside reads: "Congrats, love birds!"

 Love Birds, in a tree: 

8.5 x 4 in, 110lb card stock, front reads: "mr. & mrs." with hand-cut cardstock birds, ribbon, branch and leaves; attached with Zots and Elmer's Craft Bond. Inside reads: "Congrats, love birds!"

This spring card was inspired by this adorable 1936 Merrie Melodies cartoon that offers a timeless lesson in following your heart. This lil' owl loves to sing, but has previously restrained himself in order to gain the approval of his father. Seeing his son stifled (and about to lose the talent competition), Papa Owl tells his son to sing! The video is well-worth your 43 seconds. 

4.25 x 5.5 in, 110lb card stock, "i love to sing-a, about the moon-a and the june-a and the spring-a, i love to sing-a!" Music note is printed, and the bird and grass were hand-cut from cardstock and glued with Zots and Elmer's Craft Bond.
