"I Gotta Feeling"

A layout finally! I love these pics of my baby boy and held onto them forever! He loved the song "I gotta feeling" by the black eyed peas and so I thought the pictures fit nicely with that title. I used the cricut for the car (B is for boy) and the Gypsy for the title. Everything else is hand pieced,drawn, or cut. I wanted the layout to be playful like my son is. Tfl!

Rejoice!

I made this card using pink paislee pp and gold metallic paper from colorbok. I also used my Gypsy to cut out the ornament (Christmas solutions cart). The Rejoice is hard to see and is more noticeable in real life but hey what can you do? I cut that using the weld feature on the Gypsy...love that feature!

Christmas Wreath card

front


inside


Here is a card I made using the Gypsy and cricut. I used the Christmas solutions cart for the sign and wreath. I welded the signs together to make a card within itself and then glued that on the front. I also cut the wreath twice obce regular once shadowed and popped it up with adhesive foam. The "berries" were made using studio g glitter glue. Pp is Dcwv Christmas combo stack. I'm really loving that cart! :)

Catching up with my Christmas Cards.

Here are two more cards I've done recently. The first is another card I made from the fantastic snowflake paper from DCWV Christmas stack. I am truly loving this stack! I used my Cricut to cut the Die cut shapes for the sentiment (storybook) and snowflake (graphically speaking). I used the a TPC studio stamp for the sentiment. The cuttlebug for texture and stickles to finish it off. Oh the ribbon came from Michael's last year..I love that too~!



The second card I made yesterday was this Noel Card. I used the same DCWV christmas stack for the gold paper and the Cricut Christmas solutions cartridge for all other cuts. I used the cuttlebug swirls folder for texture again. I had some lace in my stash and gold ribbon and I thought it worked well with the angel. Using the Cricut has made my life so much easier while making Christmas cards.



That's all I have for now....TFL!

Reindeer Christmas Card

Another card made for a friend's daughter. I made this using the Gypsy wanderings cart and the new Dcwv Christmas papers. I'm loving the polka dots! I embossed the card with cuttlebug folders and the ribbon is from Michaels. TFL! (Still posting via cellphone so I apologize for the separate posts and cellphone pics)

Snowflake Christmas card

Worked on some Christmas cards tonight for a friend of ours daughters. I used a Dcwv stack for the snowflake paper (isn't that red yummy) and used my cricut Christmas solutions cart for the snowflake. I finished it off with stickles in stardust. Tfl!

Sports superstar!

December is full of birthdays for me starting with my youngest kiddo,then my mom, my neighbor and then my nephew...that's just the start but since my nephew lives the farthest I wanted him to have his card done so it gets to him in time. This kid is all about sports and outdoors so I thought this MM paper would work perfectly along with an page kit from colorbok called perfect pages all boy.  I added some hardware from stampin up and twine. I really hope he likes it!

With Sympathy



My son's teacher just lost a family member so I whipped up this card last night. As I have said before I hate having to make sympathy cards but unfortunately its unavoidable :(. The best thing about this card is I used nothing but scraps and odds and ends I've saved from other projects so it went together very quickly. I share these cards and what I have come up with since there isn't a lot of examples of sympathy cards out there. I'm also entering this card in the Moxie Fab World Card Creations: Favorite Occasions week all occasion challenge. Here is the link to the challenge if you would like to join~ http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2010/11/card-creations-favorite-occasions-week.html
