More cake decorations

Here are some decorations I made for my neighbor's daughter's birthday cake. I used a cut file that I downloaded off the internet for the Hello Kitty (sorry don't remeber who designed or I would give credit where it is due). And for the cupcakes I believe I used the From my Kitchen cartridge but not absolutely sure anymore.

MPS NSD Challenge # 12

Here is a card I hate to make but I thought I would start to make them so when the time comes I will have one already made. If you are wondering what kind of card I am talking about then I don't blame you. It is a Sympathy card they are so hard to make and no one likes to have to make these anyways. Well Robyn's final challenge was to make a project with a critter on it and since I don't own Create a Critter yet I went to my trusty old Wild Card cartridge and found this bird instead. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful evening it has been a fun filled weekend and I got all but one challenge done.

Baby's 1st Birthday Invitations

Ok wow it's been a week since I posted anything....Wow whats wrong with me. Well last week my 11 month old was teething really badly. After that hurdle, my 5yr old got sick. Well you all know how that works if one gets then the next and so on. So for the past week I have had 2 sick kids and myself to try and nurse back to health, not fun but we are getting there. So yesterday I was finally feeling a little better so I decided to work on my little guys 1st birthday invitations.

Nothing really special but hand crafted with love. Its a simple A2 card 5 1/2 x 4 1/4. The orange mat is also 5 1/2 x 4 1/4. All the animals are from the Zooballoo Cartridge. Not to sure on measurements I used my Gypsy to place everything. The sentiment is from the Wild Card Cartridge. Even on a boy's party invitation I used Stickles, it adds a little something. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Easter Tag

Here is a quick Easter Tag I made for the treat bags I put together for my nieces and nephews for Easter. Everything was cut out using the my Cricut Expression and the Easter Mini Cartridge. The scalloped eggs are the shadow feature of the 1st egg on the cartridge, the bunny is the shadow feature and decorated with stickles. The grass is also from the Easter Cartridge. The doodle dots where made using a Signo Broad white gel pen and the sentiment was hand written using a Sharpie Fine tip marker. The ribbon is just plain Kraft ribbon I bought from Target. Thanks for stopping by and as always comment are appreciated. Have a great week.

Quick & Simple Easter Card

Here is a quick and simple Easter card I put together last night in about 10 minutes. I needed a little scrap therapy and this is what I came up with.

Its a standard A2 size card (4 1/4 x 5 1/2). The patterned cardstock mat is cut at 4 x 5 1/4. Both the egg and the scalloped shadow was cut at 3 1/2 using the Easter Cartridge. I really like this cartridge it has some fun but dainty cuts on it. The flower is colored in with Stickles. I used Cotton Candy and Eucalyptus. For the dots I did the same colors. The ribbon is a sheer pink that I believe I picked up from Wal-Mart, my bows are not the best but it works. The doodle dots around the scallop was done using my Signo Broad white gel pen. Thanks for stopping in and looking. As always comments are always appreciated. Have a great day.

Birthday cards

Here are a few birthday cards I have made using the cricut. The cupcakes were cut using the layer features of the cupcake card from the Wild Card cartridge. The pink and purple card's saying is also from the same cartridge. The pink card's saying is from the George and Basic Shapes cartridge. Oh and of course every card needs a lil "BLING". I used the Diamond Stickles for the icing on both cards. Hope you enjoy them as much as the little girls who received them did. Thanks for looking.
