Scraplifted Sympathy Card

I like many others see some pretty fabulous cards that others have made. I saw a version of this on the Cricut Message boards that said that they had scraplifted it also!!!  My sons coworker suffered a terrible loss this week and thought this card was something that I had to make!!  Thanks to Joy Sikes who found a cut.file I could download to make the card base the rest was pretty easy using things I had in my ever ending stash!!

Wildcard Branch Card

Well You Tube is such a source of inspiration and information for me!!!  I find Creations with Cristine Wild Card Series so jammed pack and sure makes my life easier when I get in the mood to try out some of these different cuts on theWild Card Cartridge !

 Below is a link to all the wonderful videos you can watch and get inspired by:

The above cards can be found on Page 57 in the Wild Card Manual!!  It is done like a tri-fold card!!  I cut this at 8 inches and had to do some trimming in order to get it to fit in the envelope that would only cut at 7 inches on my expression.  (lesson learned if I wanted to make the envelope that is included with the card).

I also did some inking and used my computer for the sentiment inside!!!  The butterflies are layered and puff painted and stickled!  Cut a little slit and inserted ribbon for a little extra pazzazz!!!  I had fun!

Triple Cone Birthday

I soooooooooo scraplifted this from U Tube Video!!!  I thought it was adorable!!!  What a great idea to use the score pal for the cone look and the Happy Birthday embossing folder from Cuddlebug.  I used a little dollar stamp and the chocolate and i just swirled a little stickles on the vanilla!!  This is cut a 8" from the You can always use a Birthday Card in your stash!!!!  I decided to check out the stash of cards that are in the SWEET TREATS cartridge. (and there are a bunch)  Watching the utube videos online gave me a little nudge.  I even tried my hand at center point to get the inside of the card done(once again new years resolution).  this was cut at 6 inches and it fits a A6 envelope!!!!  I am pretty pleased with how this turned out and as always leave some comments everyone like to know what people think of their work!! Sweet Treat Cartridge pg 35.  It fits a 4x91/4 inch envelope.  I used some rub-ons' i had for the sentiments.  I loved following along and adding a little of my own touch to this video.

I have a chrush on you

I seem to be in a shaped card mode and am enjoying every minute of it!!!  I am using my Design Studio to make the bases of my cards.  This one was cut at 5" in shadow and flipped around and nudged and welded.  I then cut his out at 5ins with the shift key E in Zoobaloo.  Did some doodling and added some embelishments and my little elephant came to life.  I have also shown how I did the inside of the shape card. (my NewYears resolution)  So far so good but I do cheat some times!!!!  If you want to know anything else I did you can leave me a comment below.

A little Bee Told Me

Well this is the last card of the day!!!!  I have gotten quite a bit done today with 10 thankyou cards I made up that I have to get in the mail this weekend . (Really behind on those.)   And the early post of my elephant valentine.  I decided to try a shape card and this is what I came up with!!  Used DS  welding two shadow cuts at 5inches together.  I just cut the bee out at 5' and traded out the flower for a Heart with a stamp on it did a little doodling and stickling and here my busy little Bee is !!!  Just like me!!!  This card fits in a A2 envelope so I didn't have to make one saving time!!!  Think I might have to duplicate a few of these!!!  Thanks for looking!!!

PinkElephant Valentine

I have been really enjoying all the different cuts and characters on the Paisley Cartridge if you haven't noticed!!  I bought the K & Company Valentine All in One paper pad and the papers are so great !!!  (Double-sided a plus)  This Little elephant holding a love letter was just crying out to me to do a little doodling and putting her on the paper required little to no work other than a few little stickers from the stash and a litte BE MINE stamp from the dollar bins and this card was finished!!  Hope the rest of my Valentines go together as quickly and Pinky did!!!
