Turtle Baby Shower Card

To go with the theme of the diaper cake, I had to make a matching turtle card for the baby shower.

Cricut Cartridge
Birthday Bash 4"

I did hide contour the turtles face, and welded to turtles together to make a card.

Welding with hide contour used

Owl Invitations for Baby Shower

I was asked to make 50 owl invitations for an upcoming baby shower.  She is a family friend and loved my SIL onesie invites and asked for something very similar.  Unfortunately for me when I upgraded to my Cricut Expression 2, I lost all my old files that were saved.

Onesie cut from Life's a Party (welded)
Scallop cut from Straight from the Nest
Stamp and punch from Stampin Up

Baby Shower Card | Bright Colors

Here is a card I made for Christi's baby shower.  I tried to make the card match the diaper cake for baby Kensely.  I used New Arrival cart outfit at 1.25" and layered, and cut out circles from the cart as well.  Embossed with dots, and used "Baby Bundle" congratulations stamp from Stampin' up.

Thank You Card to Prima!!!

I tried to use all the new Prima products while making the thank you card to them.

Handmade Happy Mother's Day Cards

Here are two cards I made for Mother's Day yesterday.  One was for my Mom, and the other for my mother in law.

Flower was made using Cricut cartridge Mother's Day Bouquet

I then sprayed Tattered Angles  Glimmer Mist, then scrunched them to make them look more realistic, then used my quilling tool to roll in the ends.

I card lifted the idea from "Color Inspiration" magazine from designer: Windy Robinson.  I chose to make the roses yellow since they are my MIL favorite color.  This was such a great idea and very easy to make.

Final size 5.5" square

Handmade Birthday Cards

Here are a couple easy handmade Happy Birthday cards to make.

Cupcake Birthday Card for Tracy

Here is a 5" x 7" hot pink, white and teal birthday card I made for my SIL using Sweet Treats cupcakes 1.  I cut 3 cupcake at 1.5" in three different colors.  Embossed with Cuttlebug Swiss Dots, and added some Stickels to the cupcakes.

Wine Charm using Cricut and Shrinky Dinks

I only took a picture using my camera phone, but these are some wine charms using my Cricut Life is a Beach, and one is stamped with a rubber stamped.  I colored them in with paint pens. 

Our family goes to Lake Powell on a houseboat every year so I wanted to make some wine charms featuring water theme (well my interpretation).

Wedding Card

My husband is the BM is his friends wedding this coming weekend, and I made a wedding card to match the wedding colors.  For some reason the colors look a little different then in real life through the lens of my camera/monitor.  The wedding colors are curry and a bright teal.

Yellow/Curry paper cut at 6" x 12", and crease at 6" and 8.5", then cut one piece of teal 6.25" x 6.125" and placed behind the 6". Then cut 6.25" x  3.75" teal and placed behind the 3.5" section. 

The "Mr. and Mrs." and the "S" were cut in Tie the Knot at 1.75" I used the shadow as well at the same size. Also used my CB "swiss dots" on the Mr. and Mrs. and S as well.

I then stamped and embossed the curry paper, added ribbon, and used Swarovski crystals to accent the bottom corner.

Scrapbok Layouts

I have been on our annual houseboat trip at Lake Powell, UT. We had a great time and hopefully I can post a couple photos shortly.

Meanwhile here are a couple scrapbook pages I completed.

Martha Stewart punch to create the pink border, and SU Circle Circus then emboss with gold powder. Butterfly cut with MS punch on vinyl then peel sticky and used MS glitter.

Flowers were cut with AE starting at 1"-2 3/8" and I spaced them out and made 3 flowers.  Some I embossed with clear powder to give the shiny look, all embossed with CB Dots folder.

Corset Bridal Shower Card

Yesterday was Christi's lingerie Bridal Shower, and it was a lot of fun!  I made her a corset bridal shower card using Tie the Knot, since I put it in DS to cut, I started to stretch so I have no idea of the size.

I used SU Teeny Tiny Wishes "for your shower" with Basic Black

Happy Easter Everyone | A New Easter Egg Card

Hope everyone had a great Easter!!!

I made another traditional square card 5.5" x 5.5" (I happened to buy a large quantity of very cute pink polka dot envelopes, if anyone was curious) I cut the eggs with From My Kitchen, using a shadow oval about 1.5" but used DS and squashed it down a little. I embossed with the cuttlebug using Swiss Dots, and stamped with SU, Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp, pad Pale Plum. I then used white tulle, and sprayed it with Fully Purple, Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist. I also embossed the inside with Ranger embossing powder in Turquoise.

Thank you for looking!

Couple Girly Happy Birthday Cards

This first card was made using Sweet Treats and embossed with Swiss Dots, unfortunately I was in a hurry when I took the picutre, and the coloring is not the best.

The butterfly is very similar to the one I did last week, I just changed up the colors.  Butterfly is from Sentimentals and embossed with Flourished Frame.

Ice cream cone was made using Sweet Treats, and embossed with Floral Fantasy.

A Couple More Scrapbook Pages...

 

Valentine's Day Card

I have waited over a week to give my husband his handmade “Box of Chocolate” card I had made. I am usually making a card minutes before an event but this card came to me so easily. Since my hubby is an “anonymous” follower I knew he would see it if I posted it.

All the hearts were done with Sweethearts cartridge, and I used an iridescent white for the card, metallic gold, and red glitter paper, I also used a metallic brown for pieces of the chocolate. Stamped with SU stamp “happy valentine’s day”.

Quick Thank You

Here are a couple Thank You cards that will be going out in the mail soon.
