Classy Christmas Tree Card


This is my Christmas card this year.  I cut my tree out of silver glitter paper using Cricut's Solution cartridge "Christmas Noel."  I placed that onto a piece of black shiny paper and matted onto a silver foil paper.  Then put all on a red card.  I embellished with red rhinestones as ornaments.  I put a close up shot to show the glitter and rhinestones. 

Thanks for looking!

Welcome Baby Card

I made this baby girl card by stamping "Welcome Little One"with Stampin Up "Fun Phrases" and the baby fingers and toes were a sticker that I matted on green paper.  I used the other baby girl scrapbook papers as background paper.  I like the way it turned out and it was very easy to make!

Wedding Card


I created this wedding card using white pearl paper.  I stamped my flourishes in Versamark ink and then  embossed them with silver powder.  I matted it on silver paper leaving enough to show a frame and embellished the flourishes with diamond and pearl rhinestones.  I decorated with a piece of sheer silver ribbon and stamped my greeting on the silver paper.

Masculine Birthday card

I made this card from scraps.  I embossed the black and gray pieces with my "Diamond Plate" Cuttlebug folder.  I stamped a plain white tag and tied it on with some orange and white thread.

Halloween Card

Here is my Halloween card this year. My paper is "Rich Razzleberry" from Stampin' Up.  I stamped the web in white ink and the bats in Versamark.  I found a Paper Studio striped paper that matched the razzleberry color.  I cut the chandelier from Cricut's "Home Decor" cartridge.  I also cut some other images from the October 31st catridge.  I will post those as well on my page.

Monogram Pumpkin

(This looks better at night and without a camera flash bouncing off of it).  I bought a "Funkin" carveable pumpkin at a craft store.  I cut my monogram letter from Cricut's "Storybook" cartridge and taped it to my pumpkin.  I traced it with a marker and cut it out with a craft knife.  I used a battery operated flickering candle as you don't want to use real candles. Very easy and fun!  Thanks for looking!

Baby Banner


This is a "Welcome" banner for a baby shower a friend and I made.  We used Cricut's "Storybook" to cut the letters and scalloped squares and circles.  We tied it all together with various brown and blue ribbons.  We used scrapbook paper as our backgrounds behind the letters. It was pretty easy to make and was a hit at the baby shower.
