Bday card for father-in-law

So many birthdays this time of year! Here's a card I made for my father-in-law.

Paper: Recollections
Patterned Paper: Teresa Collins
Stamps: CTMH
Balloons: Doodlebug Cartridge

I made this card box and set of cards for my mom for Xmas. I didn't put a sentiment on the cards so that she can use them for any occasion. 

All the papers were from my stash. Mostly Stampin' Up + Teresa Collins. The flower and vase are from CTMH Art Philosophy cartridge. 

Easter

I cannot believe that Easter is almost upon us ~ where did March go?! Here are my Easter cards. A cornucopia of different elements ~ digital, Cricut and paper.

Workout book

I doctored up a composition book to keep track of my workouts.

I may not help me workout any more but it will look good on the table next to the elliptical!


Supplies:
Paper - Stampin' Up
Cricut cartridges - Wild Card (Rx + Stethoscope); Plantain Schoolbook (alpha + apple)
Ribbon - Misc

February Birthdays

I made 2 cards yesterday, using the same Art Philosophy cupcake. One is for my niece and one is for my brother. I really like how they turned out.

My 22-year-old nephew sent me the sweetest note the other day. Apparently he wants to bring back the ancient art of handwritten notes! I discovered this smiley face the other day while looking through my cartridges (Wild Card), so I just had to use it. My nephew is the lucky one to get a card with it :-)

I made this card for the DL.ART 1 YEAR BLOGAVERSARY hop/challenge. 

Cardstock - Stampin' Up

Digital Paper - Jen Reed
Cupcake - Art Philosophy Cartridge; cut at 3"
#1 - Art Philosophy Cartridge; cut at 2"

This card is for my sil's birthday. My family has so many January birthdays!

Layer - SU Island Indigo cut at 6 1/4 x 4 3/4.


Cricut Doodlecharms hat (used as a megaphone) and border cut at 2 1/2. Megaphone is SU Calypso Coral. I cut the border out of a cereal box, then layered Jen Reed digital paper from the Eat Cake kit, also cut at 2 1/2. I used the top of the hat for the extra "confetti".


SU basic pearls on the confetti.


I stamped the sentiment using a My Pink Stampers from birthday crazy. It's hard to see, but the sentiment is stamped using SU's island indigo ink.

Camera Thank You

My sister bought my daughter a camera for her birthday and a new lens for Christmas. Thought this would be a cute thank-you card for her to send.

Supplies:
Stampin' Up paper - neutrals
Stampin' Up ribbon - certainly celery
CTMH - tag/stamp
CTMH/Cricut - Art Philosophy cartridge

Manda's present

I saw this done on someone's blog (for the life of me I cannot remember whose). It was done as a scrapbook layout. I thought it would look cute on this package that came wrapped in plain brown paper. I used the Cricut Joys of the Season cartridge and Stampin' Up paper.
