Bountiful


This card features a wheelbarrow overflowing with blossoms in contrasting shades of violet. The wheelbarrow is poised in the grass as if it were left there by a gardener, against a summer sky.

The idea came to me from an old Bible passage, "My cup runneth over." It made me think of things that were bountiful; blessings, love, flowers...

I think this would make a great summer/spring garden party invitation or a card one would give to a lady whether she likes to garden or not. There's something soft and feminine about it, and it is truly one of my favorites (aren't they all?!). This card measures approximately 6 1/2" x 5" and includes the envelope. Due to paper availability, the sky and grass may also vary from the picture. The flower colors can vary (you pick 'em, I'll make 'em). I prefer to do the wheelbarrow in silver as it looks more authentic, but that can be changed upon request.

Vivid Dreams


I call this one 'Vivid Dreams' because of the contrast between the bright pink against the black on this card. The center is cut out to make a window. The inside of the card is a die-cut embellished with a square-shaped crystal in the center, mounted on swirl-embossed paper in matching pink, which is also mounted on dot-embossed paper in black. A pink epoxy sticker that says "Dream" is placed bottom center to complete the card.

The inside of the front flap is ivory, so your sentiment could be written there and continue on the back, or the card can be sent
as-is. Card measures 6 1/2" x 5" and includes envelope.

Friendship Double Pocket Card




This is a green and dusty rose double pocket card. The sentiment is printed on vellum and has double corners on each end. A bookmark with the word "friends" in dusty pink is also included. It is embellished with a red fabric flower and bronze dragonfly. The green paper is decorated with small, dusty rose colored flowers and black stems.

Colors and sentiments can be modified to fit your request.

Kids in Costume


This card depicts three children in costume. This would make an ideal party invitation for young children. Costumes can be modified as can race/gender/colors. Other costume options include Halloween costumes (Frankenstein and Mummy, for example), mermaids, cowboys/cowgirls, angels and more! This card measures 6 1/2" x 5" and comes with envelope.

You Have Mail! Mailbox Card w/ Mini-Letters


This is one of my favorite cards and a big seller. There are four "letters" inside the mailbox and they can be removed. On the back of each card is a small message that I can write or I can leave blank for you to add your own sentiment. The inside of the card is left blank for your message. The mailbox flag also moves. Card measures approximately 6 1/2" x 4 1/2" and comes with an envelope for mailing.
