Sweet Anniversary Card!



I made this anniversary card for my oldest sister who lives in Mississippi. I miss her alot, but sending her a card to celebrate her anniversary helps just a little. When I make a card for someone, I think of their likes and favorites, then from that I make the card. And while I am making the card they are in my thoughts and I sometimes say prayers for them as I am thinking of them. The funny thing is when I was making this card for her, she called me! I think she knew I was thinking of her! So what do you say when she asks, "So Beth, what are you doing?" Uhhh! Not much? LOL Too funny! Well enjoy!

More Thank You Cards







These are some of my favorite "Thank You" cards I have made. The black and white one received alot of compliments from, cricut.com. I had so much fun making these, as usual. Yes, I know that 2 of them are basically the same, and yet they are totally different.

Thank You Cards











Here are just some of the cards that I have been working on. They are "thank you" cards that I am making for our guest singers and such, that will be at our church on our 35th Anniversary Sunday. I think they all have turned out really great so far. Just a few more to do and then moving on to something else. I love making cards, it is so fun and so rewarding.

My Favorite Summer Flower

This is my Stargazer Lilies that bloom every summer for me! I love them and look forward to them each year. They grow from a bulb and bloom about 2-3 weeks after the 4th of July. They have a very strong fragrance. I picked one once and brought it in the house, boy was that a mistake. I sneezed and sneezed and sneezed until I took it back outside. The one year I had over 90 blooms between the 3 stalks. God makes such amazing things for us to see His glory, everywhere. Thank You Lord!

A 4 wheeling fun Birthday Card!


This card was for my nephew who loves to go 4 wheeling in the mountains. By the time he gets back he is covered in mud, so that is why I made him look a little dirty! I think he trys to hit every mud puddle possible. :-)

Birthday Card


This was a birthday card for my husbands grandma who has vision problems due to diabetes. She can see shadows and some colors. So I made her a card that she could feel and identify it with just touch. Yes, it is similar to the one I made that was a pivot card, for my neice. The major difference is of course the paper and that I mounted the flower on a card so that she could open it the normal way without confusion.

Striking a Cord of a Birthday Card!


This card was made for my nephew who loves to play his guitar and sing for his church. So I thought that it was appropriate to give him a card that reflected his love for music.

A few more Father's day cards!






Here is the final 3 of the Father's day cards that I made! Now I have to make a baby card and a Birthday card. Then we will be celebrating the 4th of July at our home with everyone coming and having a picnic. Directly across from our home on the week of the 4th is a large carnival. Then on the 4th the town puts off fireworks right across the street from our home...So we get front row seats to the "Awesome" fireworks display! So I am going to be busy, busy, busy, for the next couple of weeks! FUN! Either way, enjoy my cards!
