More More Slam Dunk

More slam dunk cards. Just trying hard to use up the tub of die cuts and the many shelves and stacks of papers.  When I was designing cards on a design team, I took my time, and tried to create a nice design.  Now my goal is just to get those stacks and tubs whittled down.  The cards are fun to make and I share them with friends. 

I had a lot of froggy die cuts.  

 A bevy of cards.  Can you see the little hand drawn froggy card?.... There for a while I employed my past artist skills at drawing some of my cards.  It was fun.

 I have a lovely die cut for several sizes of a cross.  These cards came out pretty, I think.

 Sizzix candle dies make a quick little birthday card.

 A few die cuts, a few punches create quick cards.

 I love the design papers on these two cards.

 Jumbled stuff.

 A few of this, a few of that.  Love stuff.

 These cards were quickly made using punched out die cuts.  Cute... I think.

 More stuff grabbed up out of stacks and tubs.

That's all, folks.  Thanks for taking a peek.

Notebooks

For years I donated covered notebooks for cancer patients and the children of cancer patients. These books are wonderful pathways to jotting down many things, ...memories, hopes, dreams, fears, etc.  Recently I did a few more for this  purpose.  I always have stashes of the yellow, white and various colored note pads of different sizes.  The larger ones are adult sized and the smaller pads are for the children.  I had fun making these and I know they will be used.

So simple to make.  The larger pads are created with the 12x12 papers while the smaller pads are used with 8-1/2x11 papers.  The 12x12 pads are comprised of two sections.  I place the notepad on the paper, then I do the two score lines for the folding spine, fold down the top and then cut a section to paste on the smaller section. That becomes the back part.  I decorate the front, and then glue the pad on the inside.  The smaller pads are easy.  Those "strips" are cut 5x8-1/2.  Once again I place the note pad on the lower flap, and that gives me the "spot" that I score the two spines and then I fold down the top, decorate and voila', ...a cute little note pad ready for someone to jot down their thoughts. 

Fun.  I had fun.  But I always do. Thanks for peeking at my covered note pads that will be used with such need.

Hello visitors.. more slam dunk cards on the menu today. 

Just an array of this n' that... but be sure to check out the last photo. 

 Last photo alert.  I made 75 Halloween cards.  Slam dunks, yes, but such fun to use up some of the stashed die cuts and papers.

Thanks for looking' and have a happy day.

SLAM DUNK SERIES #3

Here I go again.... more slam dunks.  Actually I have given any viewer a gift because I did not begin to take photos of all the cards I made.  I have lots of friends who come over and shop in my Free Shop, and they enjoy selecting cards they like.  I like the sounds of glee when they find cards they want. 

 Out of this group of Slam Dunks, I think I like these pink ones  best of all.

 Who doesn't love a bunny?....

 Believe it not, I found a page of stickers.  A scrapbooker might recall that when scrapbooking started, we only had stickers.  Yup, I used 'em, and I still have some sheets.  They make really quick slam dunk cards.  But I will say I added a wee drop of my glue just to make sure the stickers remained where I placed them.

 More scrapbooking things added to cards.  Those are the really fun cardboard die cuts.

 Sweet grinning  bear.

Everything I photographed has now been added.  I do have a tray of abut 100 mote cards but....
Thanks for visiting.

Slam Dunk Series #2

A little array of slam dunks.  I sort of aimed to make multiple cards with the same theme.  I found that when I am making a lot of cards it is logical to stamp up or print a LOT of sentiments, cut them down and put them in a size #10 envelope.  The envelope is put into a basket, flap up and the sentiment tagged on the tip of the envelope.  When I am making Happy Birthday cards, this full sentiment envelope is really a lot of help in the Slam Dunk Community.  

Below you will see a bevy of Happy Birthday cards. 

Just A Note cards.... so useful, easy to make.

A few of the many Thank You cards.

I love making HELLO cards.  So many uses for these.

That's it for now.  More to come.  Thanks for taking a peek. Have a nice week.  Oh my, I made a Rhyme in No Tine.
