Wish you were here Card

Using $1 stamps from Michaels I created this fun card. The envelope was stamped 3 times and layed for dimension.

September Wall and Desk Calendar

Background paper for Wall Calendar is from the Hittin The Books stack. Designers Calander Cart used.

Copic Colored Card

I worked on this card for so long yesterday and I absolutely love the way it came out! I colored the girl and bench with Copic markers. I originally just started coloring her to practice blending reds and blacks because they are suppose to be 2 of the hardest colors to blend and when I was done I was so happy with her I just had to use her on a card! I cut an oval in the base of the card with my coluzzle and stamped the sunrays with a Tim Holtz stamp using Wild Honey and Marmelade distressing inks, sprayed it with a little Perfect Pearls for shininess and stamped. The flowers are from a MS punch painted with Iridescent Medium and stickles in the center. The grass on the side of the bench was cut with Create A Critter. I also inked the edges and painted on some Iridescent Medium on top of that.

Magical Marquee Scratch and Sniff Card

This is the coolest card! Not only are the cherries inside scratch and sniff but when you open the card the curtains move and reveal them! The card was made from a tutorial I found HERE. It looks like an easy card to make but getting everything lined up perfectly is a pain but oh so worth it in the end! The scratch and sniff is made by combining black cherry koolaid powder and clear embossing powder.

Easel Thank You Card

The main image of the card front was from a page of squares tags I had. I added a flower from Basic Gray. The sentiment is embossed in white. Added a little ribbon, faux stitched with my white pen and punch out the word Thanks using a Martha Stewart border punch.

Birthday Pop Up Card and Tealight Cake

How cute is this card and cake?!?!?! I made this for my son who will be 7 next week. I absolutely LOVE they way these turned out!

Star Card using ribbon leftovers

The idea for this card came from Make A Card Monday. I just used my Cricut to cut the star and then added my ribbon scraps underneath it. Also used Hero Arts Dots background stamp, white signo pen and some embossing. Enjoy!

If my oldest sister is looking right now close your eyes cause this is your birthday card :)






This is a gatefold card. Used SU! paper punches. The metal piece in the top left corner is actually a magnet that can come off and the right flap is perforated so that it can be used as a bookmark. Inked the edges of the patterned paper and added some ribbon and a bow.

Creative Post for June 23rd

Simple graduation card. Used my coluzzle to cut the circle. On paper underneath I stamps out the word congrats in the circular pattern. Popped up the main background paper and added some ribbon and stitching. Used my Clear Stardust pen on the letters for a little extra sparkle.

Creative Post for June 18th

Had to make a card for my nephew-in-laws birthday. I used a stamp from Tim Holtz along with my silver paint dabber (also Tim Holtz) for the top portion. Cut out the middle and added a transparency so that you could see the inside greeting from the outside, the inside gretting is from a SU! set.

Some New Layouts

Just a few of the layouts I did over the past few months.

-----------------------------------------------------------

I made this layout using the Create a Critter Cartridge! This has got to be one of the cutest cartridges I've seen in a long time! I added a fabric flower with a stem of ribbon and a flower that I made out of buttons with a stem I drew with my white gel pen. Crinkled and bunched up some patterned paper at the bottom just for a little girliness on the page.

--------------------------------------------------

I made this page using the Lyrical Letters and Preserves Cartridge. I love love love the Preserves Cart!

This page was made using Amy Chomas gel pen holders. Click on her name for her website. She and her husband have made these wonder holders that can be used with your Cricut machine. She currently is selling holders for gel pens, bic mini markers and bic micro markers. She is also now selling an embossing tip! All her products are great quality and she is so pleasant to deal with! Not to mention she has videos, tutorials and lots of projects and ideas on her site.

Here are my interactive scrapbook pages! I made these by simply adding another smaller scrapbook page holder on top of my plastic page cover. This is a great way to add even more pictures to your page!
