Pretty Window Card

 

I really like this card.  It is so girly and very simple.

To do the window, I did the layer of the DP and then Punch through both layers with the square scallop punch.  You could also do this with nestibilities.  I stamped the branch on the kraft paper, stamped the bird and then cut it out, put it on with dimentionals.  Then stamp the for you in blue and then punched it out. 

Receipe:

Stamps: Song Bird Silhouettes - CDS, Say it with Scallops - SU

Card Stock: Kraft, whisper white, Urban Garden DP

Ink: Pretty in Pink, Baja Blue

Accessories:  Scallop Punch, ribbon, half pearls

Clean and Simple Birthday Card

 I made this card awhile ago.  I have been very bad at keeping up with the cards that I am making and posting them.  I have been a bad blogger.   I got this simple and clean layout idea from SplitcoastStampers.  This is the Blog Link For Karie Klund.  This is a very easy card to mass produce for cards sets.  I love this layout.

So these are the Frames that I made for my self.   I have not made any for my self before.  My hubby hung them for me this weekend.  They are hanging on the wall that is a joining my eating bar and kitchen.  I think they turned out pretty good.  I love these colors.

I used Urban Oasis which is my favorite DP pack from the Spring Summer 2009 Catty and Summer Love Rub Ons for the occasions mini catty.  

I painted the frames White and then mod podged the paper.

Birthday Present From KIM

 So how cute is this.   My birthday was in April, I know it has taken me awhile to post, but I wanted to share.

I would guess that she made this with her Cricut using the Tags, bags and More card.

It is super cute.   And I got 3 beautiful hand blown beads for my Pandora bracelet.  I think one of her friends makes them.

Kim, Thank you and I love them.

Cricut Acetate mini gift bag

 

I was surfing the blogs one day and I came across a blog (sorry I can't seem to remember who's Blog) and I didn't realize or even think about putting acetate in my Cricut.   I don't have a deep cutting blade, YET.  (ps Mom, I found one on E-bay for $25 ca with shipping!!! Half price here in Canada)

Anyway, I did give it a try with my regular blade (yup I am impatient) let me just say DON'T.  It kinda worked, but the next time I went to cut with that regular blade, it was done.  It wouldn't cut through regular card stock.

Recipe : 

• Cricut and Tags bags Boxes and More Cartridge 
  
• double sided tape (I am using scor-pal tape, I love it.  You don't need to cut it, it just tears with you fingers), 
  
• Cut little strips of DP and then run it through my crimper 
  
• Crochet Flower made by me for sale on my Blog
  
• Designer Brads Filigree - SU
