Many Thanks

My sister asked me to make a thank you card for her and she didn't have any specifics gave me free reign to make whatever I wanted sooooo I love making easel cards and think it's a great way for people to display their card. So this is what I came up with ...

Cricut Gypsy (card base)

Thinking of fall

So this weekend I was challenged again (are we seeing a pattern here) LOL to make a card or LO representing fall. Well of course I'm super excited that fall is around the corner that I just took this challenge and ran with it. So for the next few days we will be having some fall over here. Our First fall card is this cute set of thank you cards.



To make the background paper: I used the inkadinkadoo $1.00 stamps from Joann's and 3 different ink colors. Stamped the paper, sprinkled with clear embossing powder and then heat set the powder.

Butterflybird

So of course I enabled someone to get a Cricut. whoooo hoooo {Hi Pam}!!! Well Pam knew I was searching high and low for a Pink ATG gun. So Labor Day Weekend I told Pam I'd go teach her how to use her cricut. Well she had gotten me a PINK ATG. Well needless to say I was totally shocked and excited. I of course had to give her a thank you card. Which is how this cute little butterfly bird was born.

Papercraft Star - Challenge 6 Sketch Inspiration

Hello everyone!

This week at Papercraft Star the designers were challenged to create a project using this sketch

So the first thing I remembered was there is a lattice cut on Wild Card. BINGO that would be perfect.



So I used the two lattice cuts and hid contours on my gypsy (yes I use my gypsy or DS for everything). Then I found a great shape on the storybook cart that would be a good mat for the sentiment.

Supplies used:
Cardstock:
Recollections (Michael's brand paper)
* White Stack
* Kraft Stack
Bazzill
* Patina
Cricut Gypsy
Cartridges used:
* George and Basic Shapes - for the card base
* Wild Card - Lattice cuts
* Alphalicious - thank you
* Storybook - marquee
Cuttlebug:
* Argyle
Ribbon - Celebrate it (Basic-Basic Michael's Ribbon)

Another Thank you Card

I loved the card shape I made the other day (the celebrate card) and had some "extra" cuts left so I whipped this up

Thank You "trees" Sets

Wow that was a lot of days to catch up on. Now for some crafty stuff!!!

I'm making "gift sets" of the thank you trees that I make. And a matching box to go with them. The box is a Design Studio cut file that JenC. made at my request. You can get the cutfile directly from JenC. at http://jensbrainthings.blogspot.com/2010/02/pocketful-of-greetings.html. She did an amazing job designing it and I had soooo much fun cutting and embelishing it. Can't wait to make some more.
