Wild card - With Sympathy

Our assistant principal lost her mom recently.  I just create a card for her using my new Croma embossing kit.  It was so simple, that I don't know why I wait so long to used it.  With simple details the card showed like this:

First I cut the card 5 x 10 from Wild Card.  Then I change the blade to the embossing pin and embossed the white vinyl paper.

Ones it was done, I cut a bird and fell the details with gold marker.

For the first time I used the pens in the Cricut to write the message:  With sympathy, and worked it perfect.  Maybe next time I used less pressure.

All the borders were distress with the distress ink pats.

Their is no words that can make you feel better in this moment, but a little card could make you feel special.

Birthday Bash - Sundae Card

Hello, another night that I cant stop "cricoting".  This card is for my son best friend that loves sundaes.
I used Birthday Bash.  The card was cut 6.7" x 3", copy the image and flip one to create the card upside down together.  Then cut the rest of the images for the sundae.

The card will look like this:

I cut a third image to place the plate (blue) and the sprinklers are mix in the ice creams.

Inside, I used a phrase from BBash, simple to contrast the brown of the card.

Love it! Make me hungry!!

Hello, my friend Adrian its participating in the Hot Dog Challenge from "I celebrate the occasion blog" and I thought it was a great idea to participate.  How difficult could be to do
a hot dog card.  Well!!! after thinking for a while, it was hard, specially to celebrate a hot dog.
So far this is my card:

The card was cut with Wild Card, 4" x 7".  The letters are from Birthday Bash, using the text box from the Cricut craft room.  The hot dog, the lettuce and the plate were from Simply charmed cut approx 2".

Life is a Beach - Friends Adventure

Hello, my daughter and son will be celebrating summer in a special way, swimming with the dolphins at the Miami Seaquarium on Saturday.  Since is our best friend birthday, they are going to have a very special celebration.  For the occasion, I just wants to create a portrate frame to remember the event. 

First I used Life is a Beach for the dolphins.  I cut the waves border twice in light blue and the dolphins border in dark grey. The waves were painted with white acrylic to highlight the border.  The dolphins were cut a little bit to show over the waves.  The picture frame is for a picture 5" x 7" in white cardstock.  The letters also are from LIB, friends adventure and the sun.  The cloud is from Paper dolls for everyday.

For this project, I used the Cricut Craft Room and save my file.  Transfer the file to  my computer and then to my gypsy, and it was so cool to do it!  I fell like a pro!!

I hope they like it, because I love it!!!!

Final Product with frame:
