Happy 2018


Hello My Fellow Crafters,

Happy New Year.  I hope you had a wonderful Holiday😊

This was our Christmas card this year.  I had so much fun making this card.  Having stamps with coordinating dies make the card making process super fun and easy.

The funny thing with this card is that the door opens and closes.  Inside the door is a message.  I guess when it goes through the mail the door can press down so good that if you don’t know it opens you would think it’s a normal flat card.  The way I found that out was my sister in law thought I sent a different card to my mother in law since her door was open and hers was closed shut LOL

So with that being said for all my family and friends that received a Christmas card from us this year your door opens with a message inside😊

Make It A Great Day and Don’t Forget To Leave Time To Craft!

 

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 ~

Sending Birthday Wishes

Hello My Fellow Crafters:

Hope you all had a great weekend 🙂

This is a birthday card that I made for my sister-in-law.  I was really happy how it turned out, especially since I had cardstock and ink that really worked well together.

This card was made with a stamp set from CTMH called “From The Heart”.  What I really love about the stamps from this set is that you can stamp layers of each flower/leaf  and use different shades of color if you like or just color them with Copic markers like I did for this card.  Layering cardstock and using pop dots  adds the perfect dimension.

~ Happy Birthday Fran ~

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 ~
