a Mother's day card

I hope that all of you had a wonderful Easter. Today I thought I would share with you a card I made last night. A simple card that packs a punch in drama. I am making a few different Mothers day cards as of late because I want to send some out to women who I think are amazing mothers. So here is the latest edition.


The layout is taken from last weeks CPS sketch challenge and I decided to keep it as simple as I could. So many of the tools and toys I used, can be purchased at Pez-A-Doodle Designs... Which reminds me. Make sure you check out the girls from Pezzy's playgroup tomorrow. We have our new release party beginning with some great things to share. See if you can follow the hints. Make sure to start out at Catherine's blog tomorrow (April 13th) for your very first clue.

Now back to the card. I'm starting to embrace the simplicity of rub-ons. For months I couldn't figure out the appeal, but after getting some amazing ones from Peachy Cheap, I've finally let go to the rub-ons bug. These things are awesome. You can use them on CS, buttons, primas, grunge, chipboard, the list goes on and on.
Well, I hope you enjoyed your little stop at Ink Cut & Fold today. See you back tomorrow, when I post an Easter card lol. Didn't want that one on line until after the fact *smile*

  20. Hello
    generic vardenafil

    3. How does Levitra fix the problem? By inhibiting PDE5, the enzyme responsible for cGMP degradation in the corpus cavernosum, Vardenafil potently enhances the effect of endogenous nitric oxide, locally released in corpus cavernosum upon sexual stimulation.

    Vardenafil was shown to be effective when taken up to 4 - 5 hours before sexual activity in clinical trials.
