Cute Card

I got this cute card idea at a friends shower and had to recreate it.  Perfect for any shower or stagette.

It's so easy to make.  Just fold a piece of paper in half and trace circles for the boobs and butt shape.  Than  use some old scraps to form the underwear and line it with some ribbon or lace.  My card was too small to do this but you could also add some button details.

A Couple More Christmas Cards

Here are a couple more Christmas cards I made.  I am happy to say I think I'm done for the year.  It's a great feeling to accomplish things!

I used a boarder punch and stamp from  Scraping Supplies and some more of those stunning flowers from Scary Cute.  Both these Esty shop are willing to reimburse 10% back to my blog readers.  For Scraping Supplies use the coupon code READ in the comment box; for Scary Cute just mention my blog in the comment box.

I love how these flowers make simple projects seem so much more special.  Also, this is the first border punch I've owned and I'm having so much fun playing with it and creating layers.

They are simple but look great and were quick and easy to make...which is ideal when you have to make a whole stack!

Have fun shopping!...I definitely did!!!  Here are a couple things I made with her flowers.

Dive
Here is a page of my hubby and I about to drop backwards into the water for our first scuba trip...so much fun!

I love how these flowers accent the page.

This layout was inspired by Sketch #129 at the Creative Scrappers blog.

Christmas Card
Here is my first Christmas card of the season.  It's nice to know I've at least got a start on this since Christmas is right around the corner...also started my Christmas shopping today so things are getting done!

I really loved the deep red color of these flowers.  Perfect for the holiday season!

This card is designed for this weeks Bo Bunny card sketch challenge which is posted on the Bo Bunny blog.

So that is it for today.  I have already started on more so look out for the Christmas cards and Scary Cute creations coming.

Engagement Card

One of my good friends just got engaged.  I'm so excited for her and couldn't wait to make her an engagement card.  I had some really cute stamps I hadn't had a chance to use yet; this was the perfect opportunity.  Also a great time for me to do some heat embossing to create a  metal illusion.  Super easy and the results are always beautiful.

There are 3 steps to embossing:

1) Stamp your image using embossing ink.

2) Sprinkle embossing powder over the area you stamped then pour it back into the jar.

3) Go over the entire area with a heat gun until all the embossing powder is melted.

Here are a few pictures of the details.  My metal inspiration is carried through the silver embossing.

I've entered this in the November Crafting Life's Pieces, For Fun Challenges, and Sarah Hurley Challenge blog contests.

Moustache Fight!...and Birthday Card

Moustache Fight
Here is a page I just did of my husband and I.  We got in a wrestling fight with an eyeliner pencil.  Of course he won but at least he let me give him a mustache too when it was over.

Birthday Card
Also, here is a quick birthday card I made for a friend of mine.  I love card making because its the perfect way to use your scraps!

Have a great weekend ladies!

All Dressed Up for Snowboarding

This is a wedding card a I made for some close friends of ours.  They're avid snowboards and wear very similar colors to this (plus purple are green were their wedding colors).  Quick, easy, and cute thanks to my Cricut and my "All Dressed Up Cartridge".

I love it cause its personal to them.
