Pack your bags - Birthday Card

Hello Everybody:

Summer is almost over but we are planning to have a weekend at Ft. Myers Beach with our friend Judy that is celebrating her birthday.  For her I designed a card just like her, a good drink, beach and sun.  I used Pack your Bags, for all the layout.

I cut the card 5" x 10".  The palms and the figure were cut 4". 

Inside the phrases I selected Peace & Quiet for the message.  The amapola flower is part of the

Pack your bags.

Happy Birthday My Friend, I hope you like it!

BBTB2 Farm Challenge - Animal Kingdom, Paper Dolls Dress Up, Country Life

Hello Everybody:
Today I was creating a card for BBB2 for the Farm challenge.  It's was very hard to create a card using many animals from the farm for a friends birthday party.  I cut 4 cards 7 x 5 as background.
Then I decorated the front of the card with blue sky 4" wide and green for the bottom 3" wide.
The cartridges used were:

• animal kingdom - pig, cat, dog, duck, horse, cow, hen, chicken and lamb
• Paper dolls dress up - sun, letters, grass
• Country life- farm, banners



Gianna's Little Farm Birthday Party #2

Page 1 had the pig on a mud poodle.  The fence (3 cuts) goes all the way from left to right in three cuts up to the farm.
The grass was from Paper Doll Dress Up (Tabs) and the cat and the duck were from Animal Kingdom.

Page 2 had a horse, cow, chicken (sitting in top of the horse) and the sun. To create the mountain as part as the sun I used a piece of the same green used in the sun based from Country Life.

Page 3 is the barn from Country Life and sheep and the dog from Animal Kingdom.  On the wind mill I have the banner for her birthday #2.   The farm was cut 7" tall to give altitude to the page.

  The cloud is from Paper doll dress up.  I took a close up look of all the animals.  All were cut in 2" height, except the pig that was bigger.

The sheep was cut in gray and also in white.



I love the dog, looks so real.

I hope you like my farm..

Oh Baby challenge - nursery rhymes & playtime

For each picture I cut a 2" x 2" squares for the pictures in various colors and prints.

Christmas in July Challenge - Life is a beach

Hello, today I worked in the Christmas in July Challenge sponsor by Bitten by the bug 2.  I create a card that was in my mind for a long time and finally was created.  The Cartridge used was CCR Basics and Life is a beach.

 The main frame was cut 7"x5". Then the base for the picture was cut from Room Basics - Round Square 6.5" x 4.7". The picture I used originally was 4"x6" but I trimmed the sides.

 From Life is a Beach I cut the palm trees in two sets, and one was flip to be in the other side of the frame.

 

The words Merry Christmas was cut using George and Basics, cutting two: standard and another set in shadow. Also with this cartridge I cut 2012 using the charms and a background charms to all. The detail with the ribbon was to hold the years and give some dimension to the frame.

To show the labels I used the foam mats in all the levels.  I hope you like it and we can celebrate again Christmas in July!

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.
