Popsicle

It's a beautiful fall day here today, still warm enough to enjoy a popsicle or two!  The leaves are starting to turn and pretty soon I will have to be out raking them up!  I haven't been in my craft room for ages and decided to go down and spend some time.  I made this popsicle card using the Gypsy & Smiley Cards cart.  I have absolutely no little girls cards in my stash & this was very quick & easy to make.  The striped paper & pink paper were from my scrap drawer.  I embossed the white background with the Cuttlebug and took a chunk out of the popsicle with my round scalloped punch. The sentiment stamps are from Copper Leaf Creations.  Well I'm off to run some errands.

Have a great day everyone.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

Another crappy day here today.  Hopefully tomorrow will be sunny.  I was going to head down to my craft room but I am tired so I probably wouldn't be very productive.

I didn't have any anniversary cards on hand so I made a few of these up. They were pretty quick and simple to do.  The owl stamp is from Stampendous called Owl Friends.  I used the Cuttlebug Distressed Stripes folder after I stamped the image on the front. This folder has become one of my favorites and I have been using it quite a bit lately. I used some Tim Holtz distressed ink around the edges of the kraft paper.  The inside verse was computer generated and cut out with my nesties.

BEST TEACHER

I saw a card similar to this online & unfortunately I don't remember who created it to give credit but I thought it was so cute I would make a few.  The apple is from a Stampin Up set called Tart n' Tangy I believe and I used my Cricut to cut the A+ for the inside.  The best teacher stamp was from the $1.50 bin at Michael's.

ONE OF A KIND

I made this for my mom's birthday this year.  The stamp is from a retired Stampin Up set I have never used before and I have no idea what the name is.  I paper pieced the one dress with paper from the scrap drawer and colored the flower with my Copics.  The inside verse is computer generated.

BEER MUG

I wanted to try my Puffy paint (which I cannot find in Canada grrrrrr) that my mother bought for me at JoAnn's.  I decided to use the Cricut Smiley Cards cart and make the beer card.  I gotta tell you that I love this paint.  It is so easy to apply and then you just use your embossing gun and it puffs right up.  It was so perfect for this card.  I used the Cuttlebug Distressed Stripes folder on the mug.  I don't think it shows up very well in the pic but it adds a nice texture to the card.  The verse inside is computer generated.

CONGRATULATIONS

I have seen different variations of this card done with a heart punch but I didn't have one in the correct size so  I used the Cricut to cut mine.  I used a Cuttlebug frame folder on the front as well as the Swiss Dots folder on the bride heart and a Cuttlebug border folder on the inside. 

MOM

I used the Gypsy Wanderings cart for the first time to cut the little dress used on this card.  I cannot remember what size I cut it out at as I made these a few months ago.
