Hi Crafty Friends!
Sadly, the summer is soon coming to an end and school is starting for my kids. I just love having them home but I know they are looking forward to school and seeing their friends on a more regular basis :) Maybe the brighter side is that I may be able to create more which is something I really enjoy doing.
I created this card for one of my BFF's -Jackie- for her birthday. She is SUPER crafty and talented to I really needed to step up my game...I really loved working with the material for the flower. It was a pretty thick white cotton with fantastic texture. I added some glue and glitter as well as rhinestones from Want2Scrap to give it a little bling, cut the card with my Cricut and my Close to My Heart Art Philosophy Cartridge, used my glitter Spica pen to add the sparkly dots on the card, a Stampin' Up! Stamp & punch for the sentiment. From my stash I used the leaves and the, red, white and black card stock. I would love to hear your thoughts on this project. If you are interested in purchasing the Cricut cartridge that I used to create this, which is AMAZING I MUST ADD, please click here and it will take you to a friend of mine's website that can hook you up with it as well as a BRAND NEW AMAZING Cricut cart called Artiste. YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!! Well, your budget might... LOL Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for visiting!
With Father's Day on the horizon, I was asked to create a few custom cards. The first one I created was a fishing themed custom card. I used my Cricut to cut the boat from the Going Places Cricut Cartridge and the fishing pole was cut from the Simply Charmed Cricut Cartridge. I used real fishing line for the fishing line (I believe it was 20 gauge.) I used two fish buttons (unfortunately I don't know what company makes them,) paper, wire for the hooks, a blue copic marker (to add blue color to the waves for the water,) a glitter pen for the handle of the fishing pole, cut out cloud shapes and added white glaze lines to highlight the clouds and this is what I got. I hope this inspires you to be crafty today! Have a wonderful weekend!
