Another Year!

Well, it's been another year since I have posted.  But I have made lots of cards.  I'd like to show them here now and my intention is to keep up to date this year!  First up is a little card I made for a young man turning 9.  This is a diamond pop up card.  (Here's a tutorial: Here)

And here's another pop up I made for my Dad:

More from 2013

Moving along to some other cards I made this year:

Here's a card I made with Hero Arts Stamps, cutting

Here's one made for my friend when her father
passed away.

Teacher's Pet - 2013-

And here's a little project I did for my son's teacher's and aides.  I used toilet rolls for the bodies and bought the little cages on sale at Hobby Lobby.  There's lots of posts on Pinterest or Google for these little guys.  I put Owl Themed necklaces and earrings inside the owl bodies as an extra little gift.
