I was so tickled to see Emily as this week's FS! I was playing around in Carmel on the beach with my sisters and am finally getting to the cards I need this week. The teacup HM is for my friend Rachel, and the Popcorn HM is for my Grandma, Alice. I used this card of M's for inspiration, keeping the layout and changing the images and colors:
The teacup is coated with CE to make it shine, and has green gems imbedded. The popcorn on the other card uses Liquid Applique to make the image 'pop'.
Thanks for looking, and congrats Miss M!

These are two great cards - how wonderful you could work cards you needed for such wonderful people in your life into your special tribute to Emily too. I can't decide which I like better. The stitching and flower are so cool on the tea card but the simpler popcorn card with the hardware is cool too. I am going to go with the popcorn because I have been hungry all day! LOLMIMIMI

OK, anit-P I N K goggles applied, I love these!!! I am amazed at your sewing! What really caught my eye is the border punch and the placement. Both card themes are so perfect and your special touches, like the clear EP & liquid applicate, just scream PAT!!!!! Beautifully done and into my favs.

Such glorious cards. I love these little mice and they are just all over the place...one in an elegant teacup and the others poppin' all over .
I love the added photo hanger and your stitching...just to mention a few things I liked. These cards are just the "bestest".
