Birthday Cards

What's up my bloggie Peeps:)

Remember earlier in the year when I said I was going to make cards to send to my family  each month for their birthday. Well it is going well and I have really enjoyed creating and sending the cards to my family.          

The first one is for my brother-in-law. He is a golfer, so I thought I would do a card with a golfing theme.  I used my Cricut Expression and cricut cartridges, Sports Mania for the golfer image and Plantin Schoolbook for the sentiment on the front.  The paper is from Teresa Collins 8x8 paper pad called Fabrications.  I love this paper stack! You can't really tell in the picture,but I used glossy accents(CTMH brand) on the golfer image.

The second card is for my sister.  The paper was from a paper mat stack,All About Girlss. I bought it from  ACMoore, really cute paper.  The image is a Bella Stamp from Stampin Bella.  They were having a clearance sell on these particular images and I bought a lot of them!  I colored her with my pink Sakura glitter pen and Spectrum Noir makers.  I matted her to circles I cut using my spellbinder circle scallop dies.  The sentiment is from CTMH

 

 

The Third card is for my niece's husband.  I used  Colorboc Kraft paper from Wal-Mart.
The black cardstock is Recollections from Michael's. The button from my stash and the sentiment from Stampin Up.

Enjoy!

Daughter's Graduation Party Decorations

My daughter graduated from high school this year..sniff..sniff.  They grow soo fast!
Anyway, we through a graduation party for her and  I made all the decorations.  Know let me say, I do not know how people do this all the time..but this was a lot of work! It was fun, but whew! She is going off to VA Tech in the fall, so I incorporated both her current school colors orange and black and her new school schools, orange and maroon in the design. My advice for those who have not done this before, start early!!! lol!!   I used my cricut, YourStory, SCAL and several cartridges for most of the decorations.  The poms, poms were made from plastic table cloths, really easy to make.  I found the tutorials for the poms, the water bottles labels,  the chocolate graduation hats and the banner on the internet. 

 

 

 

Enjoy!

I created one for his sister as well, but I forgot to take a picture.  They were both created using the Paper Doll Cartridges.

Happy Mother's Day!!

For Mother's Day, I made a card and 2 bookmarks for my MIL.
The bookmarks are extra special, because they are of my daughter's artwork.  She is a really gifted artist and I am very proud of her!

Enjoy!

Birthday Card Set

My sister asked me to make her another set of birthday cards, this time more for adults.
I made a ton of cards for her and used a variety of papers and my cricut. 

Enjoy!

This set was actually made out of a set of cards I bought from AC Moore around Christmas.

 

 This set I used the Happy Birthday Cuttlebug folder, some twine and ribbon. Simple and cute!

                           This is last set I used paper from  the 6x6 Authentic Paper pad.  I love this paper!

                      This is a baby shower card she asked me to make.  It turned out sooo cute!
                  I used the New arrival cart for the rattle, the words and blinged that out with glitter glue..

                                    This is the sympathy card she asked me to make as well.

                       This card was just an extra one I created.  It was an idea I had and it turned out nice.
