Male Turtle BDay Card

A simple male birthday card I made for my brother. I love turtles and this saying is fun especially for my brother. I added some distressed ink around the image. I used some manly papers and "screw" brads. Male cards are very hard for me because they are so boring for me. I love frilly and girly.

Owl box

I made this owl box from a Silhouette file.

I distressed the edges and used some fun DP. Such a cute little box.

Perfect for adding a little candy and giving as a cute gift.

Raiders Birthday Card

 Here is a very simple birthday card. Layers and DP pretty much sums this card up. I used Fiskar stamps.

I have made several Raiders cards for different fans birthdays. They are very simple to make and everyone always loves them.

Grad Card

 I made this graduation card using parts of the invitation I received from my nephews graduation. I used the insert for the front seniors page. I cut the year in a strip and used it on the front. I embossed some silver paper for the background and used his school colors for the card.

 I cut out the grad and cap with my silhouette.

 I used a stamp a bought at Hobby Lobby for the inside.

I cut the mascot out and put it on the back of the envelope. I used his name plate on the front of the envelope.

I did not have time to post this card after I made it so I thought I would wait to graduation time came around again. I hope it gave you some inspiration. My nephew loved that it was so personal.

Pink Birthdays

I haven't had a lot of time to craft in the last few months. Growing a baby is hard work. However I have several projects that I have not had time to post that I am working on. Here are two simple birthday cards I made.

 I used a Stampin up candles image. I added some color with Copics and added Stickles to the flame.

I embossed the background on the pink. I used my Spellbinders to cut out the stamp image.

Scrapbook Page~School Photos

I tried my hand at traditional scrapbooking for my husbands school pictures. I can tell you I am not a fan of scrapbooking. I love digital scrapbooking. So much easier and less messy, but that is my opinion.

I cut out a camera using my Cricut, also the letters for his name.

Bangels Helmet Card

I used my Silhouette to cut out this card and the stripes.

The helmet card file is an SVG Cutting Files. 

I made the stripes to add to the card and envelope.

I added a simple Stampin Up sentiment inside.

Mothers Day Flower Card

This is a simple card but I love how it came out. This card is pretty self explanatory. I used my spellbinders to cut he lacy circle. I added a couple pearl brads to dazzle this card up. The pop of the blue is just right.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there. I am going to be a mother soon and am I excited! My mom is awesome and I hope my daughter will love me as much as I love her.

My Baby Shower Invites

Here is the reason my blog has been a little slow lately. I am feeling pretty good compared to the first 4 months but still don't have a ton of energy.

So I have been working on baby everything. This is our first child so very excited. I have been working on invites, thank you cards, and party favors. Here are the invites I came up with for one of the 5 showers.

I am using the light paper until I run out then the darker paper.

I cut the butterflies out with my Cameo. I used some heart charms that say It's a Girl. I kept them simple so I could duplicate them. I like how they came out.
