Bendy Arch Card

 This fun card was made with the new Bendy Arch Card Base from SVG Cutting Files, you can get it here.  It comes plain so you can put whatever you want on it.  It will fold flat to go into an envelope.  For mine I added the cute Birthday Owl and the balloons and celebrate came from the Party Time Celebrate file both from SVG Cutting Files.

Bear Treat Box

I can't believe Christmas is over...time is flying by!!   I get to be a guest designer for Jaded Blossom today, love their products!   I am always in need of birthday items so that is what I made for todays project.  I used the Bear Belly Box from the Silhouette Store and filled them with treats.  The fun tags were made with the Mini Tags Dies 2 and the Forest Friends stamp set.

This card was made with designer paper and Create a Critter and Celebrations cricut cartridges.  The sentiment is printed.

Snowman Card

I love snowmen I think they are so cute!  For this card I used Winter Woodland and Sweet Treats cricut cartridges.  The gift was hand cut from the DP the heart, tag and wreath were punched out.

Wheelbarrow Christmas Card

Are you all ready for Christmas?  I'm not...seriously not one thing bought yet!  I just put up my decorations...so far behind.  We left the day after Thanksgiving for a cruise from L.A. to Miami thru the Panama Canal.  It was amazing but put me way behind!  Plus a new puppy that is taking up a ton of my time, don't get me wrong I am loving every minute of her.  Even when she gets me up everyday at 6:30 (this morning 5).

I really love this card, it was easy to make and I think it is cute.  It was made with the Paper Dolls for Everyday and Winter Woodland cricut cartridges.  The gifts are cut from the DP, the snow was hand cut and the sentiments printed from the computer.

More Christmas Tags

These tags could not be any easier to make unless you bought them already made!!  Just some DP and punches and the sentiments are from the computer.  The flap lifts up so you can write inside.

I am entering this in Cardz TV challenge

Tags

More Christmas tags...hopefully I will have enough and won't have to use those stickers!  Made with just DP and punches and I hand cut around the tag.  SO EASY!!!

Christmas Tags

Here are a few more tags.  What makes these so easy is the DP it does all the work for you.  I did add some of that snow marker in a few spots, if you look close you can see it.

Christmas Tag

So I don't know if any of you like to make tags for your gifts...or if you are like me you just get those cheap stickers that you write on and call it good.  I do stick them on the underside of the gift so they don't show!

When it is a special gift I do put nice tags on them.  This is a really fun little gift tag shaped like a gift.  The flap lifts up so you can write your message inside.

Holiday Hugs

This card was made with the cricut Create a Critter 2 cartridge and some punches.

Christmas Gift Card Holder

Here is another gift card holder.  To see the first one go here.  The sentiments are from the computer.

This card was made with the French Manor and George and Basic shapes cricut cartridges.  The sentiment is off the computer.  The snowflake is a foam sticker.

Christmas Card

This is another really easy card to make because is is just DP and punches.  The sentiment is from the computer.  If you look closer at the snow you can see that it is puffy.  I used a snow marker by Marvy.  So cool, you just paint it on and heat it and it puffs!

Christmas Card

This fun card looks harder to make than it is!  So easy to mass produce and so cute!  Then sentiment if computer generated.  I used Joys of the Season and Create a Critter 2 cricut cartridges.

Christmas Card

I love to make Christmas cards but when you have to make a bunch of them it's no longer fun it is a chore unless they are quick and simple.  This card is so quick and simple.  It is made with DP and punches.

Panda Present

This little tag was made with the new Panda Present cut file that will be in the  SVG Cutting Files store on Friday, so make sure to check it out here.  To make the tag I used the Luggage Tag Dies from Jaded Blossom.  For the sentiment I used the stamp set Merry & Bright and the Mini Tag Dies 2 both also from Jaded Blossom.  For the fur on his hat I cut a pom pom apart and glued it down.

Mitten Card

This card was made with the circuit Artiste cartridge and some punches.  Sometimes it's just nice to not have the traditional colors of Christmas.

Peace and Joy card

Here is what I made today!

I made the Chinese Take Out Box you can get it here.  I put the Chinese words on the box it says Good Fortune.  These words are free for the hop, yippie!!  For the box with the black and white ribbon I cut the words out of the box and backed it with black paper.  For the one with the red ribbon I cut the words out of black vinyl and stuck it on.  You can click on the photos to make them bigger to see the difference.  The tag is from the Mini Tags Dies 2 and stamped with the new Chinese New Year sentiment and then stamped with the Chinese love word from the Warrior Princess stamp set all from Jaded Blossom.  I stamped it with light grey and stamped it off once to make it light but still show up.

These new little envelopes are the new Rooster Coin Pocket, since it is the year of the Rooster.  I did put the good fortune with vinyl on some of them also.  I stamped them both with the Chinese New Year stamp set.  These are the perfect size for the chocolate coins. 

I put a coin in each pocket and then closed it up with washi tape.

Happy Thanksgiving Card

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!  I hope you have a wonderful day being with family and friends!

Okay this is the last one...well for now anyway!  I did layer the turkey together with foam tape.  The sentiment is from My Craft Spot, unfortunately she is no longer in business.

Nuts about you card

Here is another one of those flexi cards by  LW from the silhouette store.  I really am in love with these cards!  They are super easy and quick to make and such a fun shape and design!  When you want to mail it you just pull the flaps out of the slots and it lays perfectly flat!

Hello Foxy Card

You may get sick of these cards...I am really loving them!  This sentiment is from a company that is no longer in business, sorry!

Meet Mika

We thought we were done with the pet stage of our life...but what can I say, I am weak.  Just look at that face how was I supposed to resist her.  So we now have a new little girl in our life she is 7 weeks old today.  She is a Yorkie poo and was the runt of the litter, she is so tiny her brother was 3 times her size.  I put her in my sweat shirt pocket and she loves it.  She is about 1/2 a pound.   We named her Mika.  So now I am back to sleepless nights for potty time and having a hard time staying in her crate, but it is worth every bit of it.

Happy Birthday Card

Well first off I have to say happy birthday to my baby girl, she is 21 today.  (Man I am getting OLD!!!)

Happy Birthday Lexi!!

I love you!

This is the card I made for her, it is one of those flexi cards.  These cards are so fun to make and a bit of a wow factor when popped out.  

That is one of the slots that you put the side notch into to make it bend out.

To put it into an envelope you take the sides out of the slots and it lays completely flat and fits into an A2 envelope.
