Here's a card that I experimented with. I made it for my friend Charlene ( I know, I know same name ! ) She's a sweetheart, and someone I met blogging!! I don't make stamped cards a lot but I thought I'd try in honor of her! She does an awesome job, she's very talented!!!! You can see her work at http://willowandpaisley.typepad.com/willow_paisley/
So for this card I took Papertrey cardstock and my copic markers and started coloring the back round with a light blue and the blender pen. Then I stamped the tree and thought it needed dimension, so I went to Michael's and found a tiny flower punch for $1.00 (That's my kind of deal!) Then I added glitter to the flowers! The tree reminds me of a dogwood tree.
And this card I used Papertrey cardstock ( I seem to use it on everything !!) A picture from Crafty Secrets. I love the colors on the picture and the kids playing! I used an embossing folder and my cuttlebug, a Melissa Frances Rub-on, which I think that the saying is perfect for the picture.
My Roses. I need to cut some for the house. These have the best fragrance. Their called "Baby Face".

Totally cute Char!
As always, LOVE your cards! Especially the quote on the little girl's card, and the tree on the hello friend.
FANTASTIC work! :)
Beautiful cards, and I love the use of the little flower punch, I never know what to do with the tiny punches! Your flowers are gorgeous, I can almost smell them they are so beautiful!
omg, just gorgeous!
I always love your cards. You pay such attention to detail. Awesome I tell ya! Hope you have a fantastic weekend. And it is certainly good to have you back!
Beautiful Cards Char! I love the little flowers on the dogwood :)
Your work is AMAZING!! My boxes of photos would become treasures in YOUR hands!!! I love your "stuff! By the way, how do you make your blog look so much cuter and more personalized? I went with a generic template because I thought that was my option but ... yours is GREAT! (Please: Teach me! Teach me!)
I did a lot of blog hopping before I got to yours this evening, and I'm sure I'll come back. Your work is fresh and inspiring. I would ask one question, if you want to share, regarding the punched flowers for the dogwood card: what else have you done to them? Did you also stamp them or used a fine point marker for the flower interior & veins? Did you punch them out of pre-printed papers? Just curious - I have the same punch.
