Lots of Different Cards

Honestly I have been so busy, and sometimes I can't remember who I made cards for and who I didn't!  It is crazy!  I am sure it is only me.  LOL  Anyways, these are just a few I made for people!

This balloon one was made for my hubby's precious grandma's birthday!  She kept asking for lots of balloons for her birthday, so naturally I had to add to them to her card.

This pretty Anniversary card, was made for my sweet in-laws!  I loved how elegant and sparkly it was!

 

 I made this little one for my sweet MIL's Birthday!  I love how this one turned out too!

Anyways, thank you for stopping in again and I hope you have a happy day!

 

Father's Day 2016

Ok, so a little bit of catching up here for you all!  Here is the Father's Day cards I made for all the Dad's in our family!  I think they liked them too!  Oh and the metallic poster board embosses amazingly in my Cuttlebug!

 

 This last one, was the one I did for my sweet hubby! He is a super dad!  He keeps so busy providing for us as a family so that we can have and do the things we do!  I am so blessed that he is the dad to our kids!

Thanks for stopping in and I hope you have a great day! 

Baby Shower 2016

Oh MY GOODNESS, I knew I hadn't been on here for a long time but WOW!  Ok let me do a little catching up with you all.  Even though I have not posted in a long time, does not mean that I have not been crafting away.  So here is some things I did a little over a year ago for my niece's baby shower for her little boy, Aiden! For the mommy and daddy, I made them pins to wear around for the party!  Daddy was a good sport and even wore his.  I think they turned out adorable!  Patriotic because Daddy is in the Air Force.  Then their card, I did a T-Rex dinosaur because it is a bit of joke between us and them, plus they are cute with those little! Plus the card was a center fold pop up card, with little floating T-rexs' and bubbles.  I was also asked to make them a little pennant banner with the baby's name, Aiden Kye!  Such a simple little thing to do for them!

 

Well thanks again for being such great followers

and I will post more soon!

Mother's Day Gifts 2016

So here is my handmade gift I made this year extra special for our mom's.  These were so surprisingly simple and quick to make.  Such a simple craft that turns out great with very little effort and can be reused again if they desire to share them with someone else!  These are simple paper purses, and no Cricut was used for the making of them except for the tags!  Just a paper cutter, and punches and some strong adhesive and embellishments. I loved the results and they almost looked like real purses, even down to the faux stitching done with a ruler and a white gel pen.  Then I filled these gift bags with some goodies, and some pretty smelling Bath and Body works soaps and hand sanitizers.  I know they enjoyed them a lot and were delighted to get them. 

 

   HERE is a video tutorial that was wonderfully done to know how to make one yourself.

Thank you for taking a look at what I have been busy doing down in my craft space!

I hope you have a wonderful day!

2016 Mother's Day Cards

Well, these are just a few of the cards I did for the moms in our families for Mother's day!  I tried to stick with a the same color scheme or coordinating papers for them all, except one.  As you can see one is a new mommy to be soon.  We are all so very excited for my niece and her hubby and their sweet little baby boy that is coming in the end of August.  Yahoo!  I did a bunch of the Free cuts on the Cricut Design Space which made things a lot simpler for me and this crazy busy time of year.  The mom to be one, was my own design.  Anyways, I think they all liked them!

Peter Pan Birthday

Hello, only a few more posts for the day, and I should be done till the next time!  :-)  Anyways, this card was made for my daughter who just turned 19.  She loves the classic stories, such as Peter Pan.  So I just had to make her a card that reflected that.  Plus to make it even better, we had her cake done to match.  I still feel that the card was missing something but was very proud of myself for doing several image downloads and converted them into cut files to cut on my Cricut Explore. <3 and="" came="" font="" happy="" i="" is="" know="" nbsp="" she="" so="" this="" up="" very="" was="" what="" with="">

Thank you so much for looking around at my projects

and I hope you come by again soon!

Hello Birthday Pop Up

Hi!  Yet another one of my recent creations with my Cricut!  My niece just recently had a birthday and I was a little late at getting it to her, so I kinda made a belated birthday card for her.  This was my opportunity to use the telephone cut that I have always loved and wanted to do!  I love this paper and how this card turned out so cute.  The inside I also made the message a pop up like I did for the previous graduation cards for her sisters.  Such a simple technique with a little bit of flare.  All the writing was done on my Cricut and then I stamped images around the edges of the pop up inside the card.  I hope she liked it!

Thanks for stepping into my craft room with my Cricut and seeing what we have been up to! 

Have a wonderful day!

Time Flies 25th Anniversary

Hello again,  Here is another card I have recently made.  This one was for my sister and her hubby's 25th wedding anniversary.  All I know is that I wanted to do hot air balloon for someone, and they just happened to have an anniversary.  So that was perfect, because time flies when you are married and so busy raising your kids and just life in general.  So this is what I came up with for them.  The inside was also a pop up with the words, "Happy Anniversary" that I cut out and just attached to each side of the inside of the card.  I knew I wanted it to have some silver and to be elegant yet simple too.  I think it turned out decent enough for what I was going for. 

Well, thanks again for taking a look into

 my card making life!

Have a great day!

College Graduation Shaker/PopUp Cards 2016

Well Hello Again!  I have been down in my craft room a lot lately and have a few projects to show you all!  So stick with me as I update and make several posts to show you all what I have been up to!  Anyways, 2 of my nieces, who are sisters, are graduating from college and about a week apart from each other. The problem is that one is in Kentucky and the other is in California.  Whew, what a huge distance from each other and home.  Anyways, I sent them both the same card just with slight variations either in color and ribbon and such.  They are both shaker cards, so hopefully the post office didn't freak out when they made noise. LOL  Plus the inside was a type of pop-up.  A pleasant surprise to open to.  I sure hope they liked them! 
And if you want to know how to make the inside pop up, just click HERE!

Thank you all so much for stopping by

 and I hope you have a fantastic day!

Basketball Popup Box Card

Hi everyone! Well my son just turned 17! 😱 Where did the time go? Why do they have to grow up? I love that he is growing up so fast and is so much fun but can't he slow down a little...😩 

Anyways, he has grown to love playing basketball these last couple of years and has started to greatly improve in his ability to play. We are very proud of him! So naturally his card had to be all about the game and it needed to be cool.
So this is what I came up with!

Thanks for coming over and I hope you have a fabulous day!
