Nothing but Cards


I've had a couple of rather intense days the past 2 days making cards to replenish my supply for the staff studio.  Truly, I planned on keeping up but somehow summer got in the way.   I recently sent for a pack of little gizzmos calle "action wobbles" because I was really liking some of the very cute cards I ws seeing on their blog sites using these little coils.  Action Wobbles are little coils with tape circles on the top and bottom coils--you hook one side to the object you want to wobble and the other to the card base and waaaalaaa you have an instant "action" card.  I made several of these cards today and ABSOLUTELY  LOVE them!
This first card has a wobbling Frog on it--
The wobble just makes him come to life and you gotta love the smile.  He is made from my very FAVORITE Cartridge  "Create a Critter".  I use this cartridge all the time--the little critters are such happy fun ones to work with.  I love them for my kids projects.
Another of my favorite Carts is my Hello Kitty Cart.  I think it might be discontinued, but I'm sure they are out there somewhere.    And Hello Kitty is so popular.  My little Black cat above is on an action wobble, as is the one in the airplane below.
I made several other action wobble cards, but for lack of space,  I'm not posting them tonight.
The other cards I made included these for "loss of a pet"  .   When we lost out first yellow lab several years ago, I got several  thinking of you cards and it really helped me through.  Losing a pet is often like losing a close friend or family member and I have noted more and more cards out there geared for this tragic occasion.  I used the "Four legged Pet Cartridge"  (It's a lite cart)  to make the heart with a paw print on it.
And I made several "Fall/Autumn" cards--this is one of them in which I made a 3-D tree using pop dots, of course, and added tiny red buttons for the "apples"
Inside, I made a little bushel basket and filed it with  "button apples"
 
I finished many many cards today--think I will take a break tomorrow and give my creative mind a rest--or maybe I'll think up some more cute ideas and just carry on.
