Besties Bday....

Hello My Friends!

This week was my Besties Bday.  :)  I found this cute little ladybug .svg file from Kelleigh Ratzlaff Designs.


I love that it has hinged wings.  I used
Word to create the
sentiment and then used my
round Nestabilities die
to cut it out.

Mother's Day continued...

Hello again my friends!

Here is the Mother's Day card I made my mom.  She loves butterflies.  I couldn't wait to use my Butterfly Die from The {Stamps} of Life.   Together with my butterfly2build stamp set.  I stamped both side of the die cut and folded it back on itself to make it look 3D.  :)

The die set I used for the sentiment is also from
The {Stamps} of Life.

Another Mother's Day card...

Hi Friends!

Here is another Mother's Day card.  I made a 3D Hydrangea flower from Penny Duncan Creations.  You can find her .svg file here at her Etsy Store.  Here is her Youtube link where you can find her tutorial.  I used the crumpled up piece of tissue for my center.  I love Penny's .svg files and tutorials.

 I wasn't sure how many petals I was
going to need for the flower and made to much.  :)
The extras I just scattered around the card.   

I cut out on the blue background card stock and then inked
the edges with a darker blue ink and purple.
I like the life like look of the petals.  :) 

I made it a easel card. 
Until next time....

Little Girl Dress card...

Hello My Crafty Friends!

I needed to make a little girl card (2 year old) for my sister's friend and I really, really wanted to make a little dress card.  I purchased and svg that I found but wasn't given the link right away so I had to improvise as I only had a short time to make it in.  Here is what I came up with...


I just made a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card and used my circle
Nestibillity to cut out the neck.  Used my square punch to
notch out the underarms and a corner rounder for the bottom corners.
Then I used half of a Sizzix die cut for the bib and another Nestibillity for the apron.
Ran both through and embossing folder for some dimension.


I ended up having to line it so I wish I would have thought to 
make some type of ruffle for the sleeves.  
(Next time!)  :)

All in all, I don't think it came out to bad.

Little birdhouse housewarming card...

Hello Crafty Friends!

Well finally I can share a card I made for Leo and Mary of SVGCuts.com housewarming.  :)  It was a surprise and everyone was really good about not spilling the beans.  :)   I love this little card that I made using their Spring Birdhouses SVG Kit.  Instead of making it a 3D birdhouse as in the directions I altered it into a little card.  :)



It was quite a blustery day when I was trying to take this pic and I had help from my little granfurkitty who kept attacking it off the rock it was balancing on.  UGH!  LOL

Here he is acting all innocent.  I think he just wanted his picture taken.  He is a camera hog.  LOL


Right now I am working on 2 different projects that are keeping me really busy.  One of them I am making the invitations for and the other bridal shower gifts.  Very exciting for me.  I love weddings.  :)

My husband and I were rear ended Friday and my neck and back are hurting so I have to take lots of breaks.  Sitting and looking down at my work or even working on the computer is causing me a bit of pain.  Hopefully it is nothing too serious.  Trying to get an appt with my new doctor.  Now that is becoming a much bigger pain in the you know what?!  LOL

Until next time...Happy Crafting!
