Welcome, sweet baby!

Another one of Eric's coworkers had a baby recently. A little girl! Swoon!
 
Naturally, he asked me to make a card to go with a sweet little gift too.
 
Pink?! Girl Clothes?! Lace?!
 
OK!
 
I used my favorite, Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge.
 

I love the way the front came out.
 
The stork was cut using my cricut E2.
I used some lace and rhinestones from my stash and some punches to decorate the corner and the "its a girl" sentiment.
 
Take a look at the inside
 


 
I alternated the BABY with two pinks and stamped the sentiment from Jaded Blossom.
 


 
I loved making this card, and rumor has it- they loved receiving it!
 
 
Thanks for stopping by!

Green Beers all around!

While everyone is celebrating St. Patricks day with corned beef and green beer, we are celebrating my brother in law, Ryan!
 
Its his birthday today!
 
Since he lives way up in the artic cold that is the UP, we won't
be celebrating all together this year.
 
I made him this card that has a total St. Patricks day theme with a birthday wish!
 

 
 
That's 13 mini green beers!
 
I cut them using my cricut E2 and the Everyday Pop Up cartridge.
The sentiment on both the front and inside is Unity Stamp Co.
I also used Jaded Blossom card mat dies and some twine from Trendy Twine.
 


 
I also decorated the inside, too!
 
 
Hopefully this card made it alllll the way to Kincheloe!
 
Happy Birthday, Ryan! We hope your day is full of green beers and corned beef that's as good as your moms! :-)

Happy Birthday, Hubs!

Today is my sweet husband's 31st Birthday!
 
 
Heres the cute card I made for him
 



 
isn't it cute?!
 
The buck and doe (that's Eric and me, ovbi!) is from the Cricut design space and
cut using my Explore.
 
The stamp is from Unity Stamp Co.
 
That's it. A cute & sweet card for my handsome guy.
 
I giggle a little, because we've been together since we were teenagers- and I use to think 30 was SO old. Now the old fart is 31! ;-)
 
 
Until Next time!

Jaded Blossom March Challenge

Its that time of the month again!
 
Another Jaded Blossom challenge!
 
This months theme is Easter and it has to have a JB stamp on it somewhere.
 
I decided to combine JB current challenge with my CCE group theme.
This month is napkin card.
 
Napkin card?!
 
Thats what I said too.
 
So I took Pinterest and YouTube by storm!
 
I found the cutest Easter napkins at the dollar general and got ready to make my napkin cards!
 
I think they turned out super cute!
 
 
I used Jaded Blossom card mat dies (a card makers must have!) and the stamp 'for some bunny special' is also Jaded Blossom
 
I added a pearl to the bow, some stickles to the egg and bunny's nose,  and a few gems on the sentiment. Heres a few more views
 






 
I made 10 cards in all!
 
Be sure to link up your Easter project using Jaded Blossom stamps here
 
 
Thanks for checking out my Easter card today!

Its been awhile....

since my last blog post!
 
I was under the weather for a full 10 days with
some kind of super bug or something, so
I didn't really have anything to even share!
 
But I do now!
 
My cousin, Gerald, had a birthday recently and I made
him a super fun card to celebrate!
 
 
 
Its Mike from Monsters Inc.
 
The colors are so fun and bright!
 
Mike is also popped up on an Action Wobble.
 
Heres a few more pics
 



 
 
The inside sentiment is from Sweet Stamp Shop.
 
I stamped the back with my new stamp, it has my blog address on it! :-)
 
 

 
I've got 5 posts scheduled for the upcoming week!
 
Hopefully I will keep going strong with the crafting and posting!
 
 
Thanks for stopping by!
