Mrs. Calise's Accordian Card

Heyo!! Over the weekend, I made this cute card for my student teacher. Today is her last day (awww) and so I thought that I could try this card. I started with a 5 1/2" by 12" piece of card stock. (light green). Then, I scored straight down at 2", 4", 8", and 10". Next, I folded the score lines forward and backward just like the picture shows. Using the measurements in the layout picture (top left)**, I stamped, cut, and glued all of the pieces onto the original 5 1/2" by 12" piece of green paper that I started with. After all of it was glued on, I opened and closed it to make sure that it worked, and then wrote my message on the far right panel.

Thank you crab (quilling card)

This card was really basic. The crab is made from a technique called quilling, and if you are interested I recommend this website:http://www.handcraftersvillage.com/quilling.htm
Anyway, I started by making the crab out of an orange-ish piece of quilling paper. I rolled the first 8 legs, and then made the same shape for the front claws, but put them in a three-some. For the body, I rolled three pieces of paper together, and the assembled the crab. After the crab was fully dry, eyes and all, I took my color changing markers and wrote "Thanks" across the rest of the room.

Thank you bookmark card

For this Thank you card, I started with a Background stamp, and I stamped it right on to the blue card with the Cameo coral Stampin' up Stamp pad. In the bottom right corner, I stamped "Many thanks" on to a purple piece, and right before gluing the piece down,I put a ribbon across the top of the card. Then I stamped the Butterfly bookmark, and riveted the end so I could string it to the card. I only riveted the bookmark though, so if the receiver wanted, they could take off the string and use the attached piece as a bookmark.
