Ahoy Birthday Card for Paul

IMG_0055IMG_0054   IMG_0056

I thought I’d get a jump on a  card for Paul’s birthday next month. Being the boat man he is,he will have fun with this fella made using the Imagine Buccaneer cartridge :)

It’s a 4x5 card size. I layered him up with a simgle thickness of foam tape. The papers were also printed from the cartridge. Beads are from stash. The "Ahoy" is from Create a Critter and filled with the color on Buccaneer cartridge.

Don’t look too close you will see I put the bottom strip on upside down! arrrrghhhh (lol)

quick St. Patricks

card for my Mom. I hope I remember to mail it!! :) I wanted to try a shaped card, so I used the shadow feature on the Designer's Calendar cart and welded them together to form the card base in the Cricut Craft Room. Then I cut another one for the front top layer slightly smaller then the base card. The card stock on the base in Coordinations and I sanded the edges to give the green border(which was the backing color). The sentiments are from a Stamps of Life set.
the ribbon is stash from AC Moore or Joann's
This fits a 5x7 envelope

Valentines cards

Everyday Cricut and Scrapping Under Influence Blogs that I follow on Google Reader were the inspiration for 2 of these cards. The other, Hearts with little tag LOVE I just did up using my Imagine and the Echo Park Yours Truly paper pack. All fantastic papers and stickers for Valentines Day!


There was one other that I made for my Oldest Daughter of a Koala holding a heart balloon that I forgot to snap a picture. I'll get it when I visit her :) He came from the Create a Critter cartridge.
