Alzheimer's Awareness Card

This card was inspired by a spool of ribbon I have in my stash.  There's a small swatch of it in the upper right-hand corner of the card.  I was tickled by the fact that I have stamps that perfectly matched this ribbon.  Amazed actually! :D

I was at a festival over the weekend and there was a booth there to remind us that Alzheimer's is robbing many of their ability to remember those they love and that love them.  June is Go Purple for Alsheimer's Month, read more about that here.  So in honor of Go Purple for Alzheimer's I made this card.

The stamps I used are from:
Martha Stewart Crafts Clear Stamps - Flowers, Butterflies, "Thank You" and "Happy Birthday"
Stampendous Mounted Rubber Stamp, 3 by 3-Inch, Fresh Bloom
Impresion Obsession Anytime Sentiments

The Inks are from:
Ranger - Dye Ink Pad - Black Tie
Ranger - Dye Ink Pad - Grape Soda
Ranger - Dye Ink Pad - Electric Lime

Memorial Day Shaker Card

This weekend is the unofficial start of the summer season. But, more importantly it is a weekend that we as Americans take time to honors and remember those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for our liberty and freedom.

So, before we mix up the tater salad and throw the burgers on the grill, let's be sure to say a prayer for and thank the veterans we come in contact with.

I made this shaker card using my Cricut Explore. I did a design search for 'star cards' and selected this one. I then turned the stars into shakers by filling them with glitter and beads. The red and blue background was made by dragging my ink pad across the card. Another super simple card! 

Enjoy your weekend and I'll be back with another video after the holiday weekend. :)

THANK YOU TO OUR VETERANS!!!!! <3
