Mary's Tales: Exploding card
http://talesfrommary.blogspot.com/2015/07/exploding-card.html
Wednesday, July 22, 2015. I got this WOW card from my sister for my birthday. But then you open it and. So I was determined to figure it out and it's really pretty easy. Just cutting and scoring. Here is mine. I made mine square rather than the rectangle like my sister's. I cut a couple leaves from some coordinating pieces of DSP and put them on the front. Then had to adjust them since one kept the card from opening. I use the rest of that package of DSP to make a couple more exploding cards and.

Mary's Tales: June 2015
http://talesfrommary.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2015. Last week I took a couple days off just for me as I had my 60th birthday on June 3. I spent a lot of time working on this sweatshirt for a baby shower gift. The little boy is due 2 days before his cousin who is a little girl. I'll be making her a pink sweatshirt to match. And one day I volunteered to help set up for VBS at church. Lots of fun things to do but this was my favorite one. A hula hoop with a ring got each book of the Bible. Mexican Beef Salad - not! When doing the to...

Mary's Tales: April 2015
http://talesfrommary.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 5, 2015. Several months ago I posted some new baby stamps designs I was playing with. Aren't they cute - wait until you see some of the cards I made. I really got carried away with this cuties so I am stocked for quite a while. I think this one is my favorite. It uses 2 retired colors - Pretty in Pink and Not Quite Navy. The DSP is Old Olive. And I love the paper doilies on these cards. Colors are Blushing Bride, Old Olive and Daffodil Delight. This was a design that was only available in t...

Mary's Tales: August 2015
http://talesfrommary.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 3, 2015. I went to a baby shower over the weekend for a sweet little girl due to arrive in September. Her mama is using the theme "Daughter of the King" for the nursery so I got inspired to use the retired Princess stamp set. I went all out for this one. It was fun playing with the Encore Gold ink and the crown stamp. And the extra effort makes a plain gift bag and white tissue much more festive and fun. Wouldn't it be fun to do a gift for a little birthday girl with the same bag and tissue.

Mary's Tales: A few cards
http://talesfrommary.blogspot.com/2015/07/a-few-cards.html
Friday, July 3, 2015. Yes Took a little time to make a few cards. Haven't made any for a while. These are made with the new In Colors, Tip Top Taupe and Watetmelon Wonder. I got the idea for the card on the left from Pinterest and intended to make 2 like that but wasn't completely pleased with the heart over the bow - might try that again with a larger heart punch. Anyway - I had everything punched and cut so put together the alternate on the left. Looks like it's dancing. View my complete profile.

Wednesday, July 22, 2015. New tutorial and an awesome dinner. I have added a new tutorial - Exploding Card. This is the exploding card I made - closed. And here it is opened. This is a card I made yesterday using the Mojo Monday sketch from a couple days ago. Of course, mine is not exactly like the sketch :-). The colors are Cajun Craze, Perfect Plum and Always Artichoke. I would have never used those colors together but the Color Coach came in handy. I do like them. But then you open it and. Here is min...

Mary's Tales: July 2014
http://talesfrommary.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 23, 2014. My mom always considered this tier wedding picture. They did not have pictures of their wedding but this was taken a couple months later. Here they are many years later. This was probably 1990. I see more and more of my mom in the mirror every year. Others often tell me I look like her and those who knew her sometimes tell me I remind them of her. What a great compliment! She was a wonderful woman - loving and giving. Often sacrificing for her family and not minding at all.

Mary's Tales: March 2015
http://talesfrommary.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 12, 2015. Can't believe it has been so long since I have written anything. I've been busy that's for sure. My new 'hobby' is Jamberry nail wraps. I love them and never have been without them on my nails since last November. This is my latest 'jamicure'. It is actually two wraps - the rose gold solid with the touch of lace layered on top. My nails never break or chip any more - the wraps are like a protective shield. I have some special ones for St Pat's Day - shamrocks :-). Here is one of...
