Celebrating a 21st Birthday with a Cool Box Card

Hello My Fellow Crafters,

Have you ever asked yourself “where has the time gone”? Reason why I’m asking is that I can’t believe my nephew is 21 🙂

So for his birthday I had to make a card that would really set the mood for being an adult.  Now he can go out for wings and have a cold one!

Can you hear me singing ~ 21 mugs of beer on a card, 21 mugs of beer ~ LOL

I really have 21 mugs on this card that I cut using my Cricut Explore Air.  And also found some bottles using Cricut Access. What I love about the Cricut Explore is that I got to customize the bottles!  I have to say, this was another great Cricut Card Idea 🙂

I know that I have said it before but these Box Cards are so much fun to make.  After cutting everything out with my Cricut,  I put all the mugs together with Tombow Mono Liquid glue.  Then I had to add that special look “bling” with some Martha Stewart glitter for the beer foam.

~ Happy Birthday Ryan ~

A Fun 17th Birthday Cricut Card Idea

Hello My Fellow Crafters,

I love making box cards.  There are so many cricut card ideas floating around in my head LOL.  Cricut Box cards are the perfect canvas for any holiday or special occasion, and you can customize your card so easily.

This is the box card that I made for our niece who was celebrating her 17th Birthday.  She is now allowed to drive and I thought this would be really cute way to celebrate this special birthday.

I used my Cricut Explore Air machine to cut out all of the images.  For the stars in the front, I used the Martha Stewart “fringe” scissor and then punched out stars with a Fiskar paper punch.  Glued each star onto the front and back of the fringe. (Yes that was a lot of work but it was well worth it because i think it looks great) 🙂

And you know I needed to add some “bling” on this card and what better then some Martha Stewart ultra fine glitter.  I think it was the perfect choice.

~ Happy Birthday Nicole ~ Love you to the moon and back ~

My Crafty Cricut Card Idea

Hello My Fellow Crafters,

It has been a super busy summer and it is finally slowing down.  I have so many cards to share with you all and I am going to start with my favorite one of the summer 🙂My Godson Tyler graduated High School and is now a freshman in College.

So for this card on one side flap I put his high school Emblem and the other the Emblem of his College.

Now here is my crafty Cricut Card Idea.  I didn’t just want to give him a check or cash in his card so I incorporated the cash into the design of the card.  I rolled up the cash added string with attached stars.  Next make paper tubes with the designer congratulations paper,then inserted the rolled cash into tube.  Now all he had to do was pull the stars and his gift would come out of the rolled paper tubes, and the card will still look good 🙂

I used my Cricut Explore Air to cut everything that was used to make this card.  I have said this so many times and I will say it again I LOVE MY CRICUT!

Thanks for stopping by today ~ I will be posting more cards that I have made this summer so please come back and check them out.
