Happy Birthday, sweet chocolate card

A sweet birthday card for Celeste. I cut out the jar, layered over the original image. Stamped the label again, cut out and adhered on top. Added Crystal Laquer to the jar to give it a true glass look. And a close up of the "chocolate" - which is moulding paste with brown paint mixed it.

Wine o'clock!

I bought these the other day from VLVstamps and they just make me LOL. The lady is stamped, colored and cut out. Then stamped again and colored and cut out her head and hands. I layered the hands on by running them thru my mini Xyron X. The head has a piece of Redline tape at the bottom and a pop dot at the top. Love the layered look of her head. Just like she's looking up at you. :) Her fingers I curled up just a little bit. The background is the Swiss Dots embossing folder but used the "smooth" side. This goes to a friend of mine with twins, a job, and a very busy life.

3 apples in a basket

This 3 dimentional and textured card is going to Mrs. Mercier. This is a lady who with her husband, built a goldmine fabulous store that is like a Cracker Barrel but so much bigger and with a ton of acres of fruit, fruit and more fruit! You can see their website HERE

I brushed on some Crystal Lacquer to the apples. Love the look it gives.

On our last visit, we chatted with her for over 30 minutes. She gave us (without even asking!) a few treats. I was in awe of her. Here is my daughter and Mrs. Mercier:
