Hello! Here is a slideshow of a few cards and some Post It Note holders that I made recently. I did a video of the note holders but deleted it by mistake. I make a lot of cards and thought a slide show would work this time. Thanks for stopping by and watching!

Mom’s Matching Birthday Card
And here is the video on it…
We had a wonderful party and I took on a project. My mother has always loved grandfather clocks. She has a full-sized one that we have had forever. I decided to make one for her special birthday. It was an undertaking, but I got it done…
70th Birthday Clock
I am absolutely thrilled with how it turned out! She loved it. Everyone at the party loved it. I love it. I used a Paper Phenomen/Kathy Orta tutorial. For the most part it was great but there were a few things left off the cutting guide which meant I had to go back and cut more chipboard. I had to make a couple other adjustments and added some added support in places, but it worked out. I will warn you, picture overload is coming. It was a bit difficult to photograph and film, so I hope you can get the just of it. In person, it is absolutely gorgeous. To find out the materials I used, please watch the video I will have at the end of the post. Now for the photos…

Yes, this is a real working clock! I purchased the mechanism from JoAnn Fabrics.
This sections opens as shown above. A mini album that I still have to make will go inside. I will post it when I get a change to get it made. It will house photos from her birthday party.
