Birthday Card for my hubby!!

I hope everyone is having a great Saturday!!  Well, we are snowed in!!  But that's ok, more craft time!!

My husband's birthday is in a couple weeks, so I made a card for him!  I haven't made many "manly cards" so this was a bit of a challenge.  I used the Smiley cards cart for this birthday cake.  To make it more manly, I didn't use the face parts.  The colors used are more manly too!!  Using my crop-a-dile big bite, I added some eyelets for a little embellishment.  Hope he likes it!!



Throwback Thursday Challenge-Heart theme

I'm back again with another challenge entry...This time it's Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge!!

The challenge is to create a project with a "heart" on it!!

This is actually the first Valentine card I have ever made!!  I designed this card on my Gypsy...The heart from Gypsy Wanderings, as is the "Love You" cut.  I welded two scallop circles together for the card base and cut a circle for the first layer.

For the glittery heart, I used my Xyron machine and glittered it!! First time for that too!  Hubby got me the Xyron for Christmas!!  That thing works perfectly for applying glitter!! Hope you like my card!!

Momo's Tuesday Challenge-Snow theme

Hello!!

Well, I'm back today with my entry for Momo's first Tuesday Challenge of the year!!  The challenge is to create a "snow themed" project!!  That's it!!  Here is what I came up with!!

 I used the Jolly Holidays Cricut Lite cart. The background is embossed with the Houndstooth cuttlebug folder.

 I used stickles and glitter to accent the snow "efftect".

The sentiment was heat embossed with white embossing powder.  I love how my card turned out!!  Hope you like it too!!

Happy Bee-Day

Hi again!!

Sorry for my absence this month!!  With the holidays I've just been busy!! I've been doing a little crafting but not much posting.

So anyway, my sister-in-laws birthday is next week and I made her this cute card.  I received the bumble bee cut from a cut swap I participated in.  I think it is from the Walk in My Garden cart.  I embossed the pink paper with the Divine Swirls cuttlebug folder.  And also added stickles to the bees wings.  I think it turned out cute and I hope my sister-in-law likes it!!

I am going to try better at keeping my projects posted!! :)

Personalized Name Plaque

Hello Again!!

So now that it's December, everyone is thinking about Christmas!!!  It's coming and coming fast!!  This year has flew by!! But bring on the New Year!!

My friend asked me to make 3 name plaques for her to give as Christmas gifts...On one of them she wanted a hot pink/zebra theme and this is what I came up with...I think it turned out WAY cute!!  She also wanted so matching hair bows, so I just clipped them on for display...

 For the other two name plaques she told me just to do whatever I wanted!! :)

I found the wooden plaques at Hobby Lobby for $1.47 each and just measured and cut scrapbook paper and used Mod Podge to adhere it to the plaque.  For the name letter I used my Cricut to cut them out and then also used the Mod Podge to adhere them too.  After that dried, I sprayed them all with a sealer.  Then attached the ribbon and that was it!!  A quick and very cute gift.  Completely personalized!!!

Thanks for stopping by!!
