Welcome to Cards by Amy K.

I am SO GLAD you stopped by to check out my blog!!! Here I will be posting my current projects for you to see. PLEASE feel free to leave me a comment. I would LOVE to hear what you think about what I'm working on. I have been a scrapbooker/paper crafter since I first caught wind of this wonderful hobby in 2006. I am lucky enough to get to spend my days doing something I love so much and which brings so much joy into my life. I first started scrapbooking as a way to pass the time as I found myself at home alone all day suddenly, now I can't imagine life without it. Too bad I don't get paid for it, then I really would have it all!!!

A Birthday card for a good friend


     I made this card for my good friend, Sara.  She is my oldest friend in the world and I always try and remember her birthday.  I want her to always know how special she has been to me over all these years that we've known each other and still is to this day.

     To make this card I used design paper from Prima, " the almanac collection". I added some vintage buttons from my stash and the orange flower is prima as well with some glimmer mist added for the color.  The sentiment is punch from McGill and the stamp is from Hot off the Press stamped in chalk ink from Powder puff. Okay, that's it for this post. I know I promised it to you yesterday but, Hey, better late than never, Right? lol. Thanks for stopping by to check out my card, I hope you all have a wonderful Labor Day weekend. C U back here in a couple of days with another card, or maybe a layout or two?  Would you like to see more layouts from me? Or what about some altered projects?  I would be happy to do more of any of those things so leave me a comment and let me know what you would like to see more of.  It doesn't have to be all cards all of the time, ya know?  Also If you have any special request feel free to leave them in the comments too and I will see if I can help you out.  Maybe you would like to see a certain technique done and explained or maybe you need help with your Cricut or Gypsy machines.  It never hurts to ask, and you never know, I may just be able to help you out.  Have a wonderful Friday evening, Hugz, amyk
