Hi Crafters & Bakers!  Today I'm going to give you a sneak peek of some cookies that Georganne hasn't featured yet.  Well, at least I don't think she has.  :)  These cookies she made for my aunt, her mother-in-law.  My dad took the pic at the party, so I had an inside scoop!  I loved the island image cookie and decided to make my card off of that one.  (HERE is her post that she did on these cookies)

Here is my card based off those cookies...

 I made this card in a postcards style.  I didn't have a folded edge.  Here's the back.

Make sure you head on over to Georganne's blog to see what she made of mine into a cookie.

I also wanted to share a video I made of my story over the last year.  If you don't mind, take the time to watch and share with others.  Thank you!

Happy Fathers Day!

Happy Father's Day! Here is a quick card I made w/ my Silhouette. The main image is a cut that I purchased and threw together. It took me less than 20 min to put this together and I just love the design. I even used pretty much the same colors that was in the example. I liked it. To determine the size I made a rectangle on my silhouette software the size of the white cardstock then sized down the image for it to fit inside it. 

I embossed the white image w/ the Argyle Cuttlebug embossing folder.  I thought it was prefect w/ this style of card.

No Color Wedding Card

It's the first Friday of the month which means it's time for the Cookie Card Challenge! The cookie that I chose is from a challenge that Georganne did on her own blog, LilaLoa. She challenged her followers to make a cookie without using color. When I saw them I thought they would be perfect wedding cards. The one I'm basing my card off of is the one on the bottom left with the Damask image on it.   To see the blog post these cookies are on go HERE.

The damask image I chose I got from the Silhouette store.  I couldn't find one on my Gypsy.  I really liked the elegance of this, it does make a great wedding card.  Which is a good thing because we have like 6 weddings this month!  lol

Sorry for the shiny pic, w/ the cardstock being silver I couldn't take a pic w/o a flash on it.  I also had to use my cell phone for the pics so they aren't the best or w/ the best lighting.

Make sure you stop by Georgeanne's blog to see what project of mine she made into a cookie!  :)
