I played with Paper!

Yeah! I finally got to go for Art Club! This is one of the cards I made. It is for my nephew who turned 14 yesterday! He's on vacation so the card should be there when he gets home. This cute Penguin is from My Scrap Chick as are the top 2 waves. The bottom waves are from Zooballoo and the Font is Life's a Beach! I love how Tempting Turquoise and Pacific Point colors go together!

Christmas Card for Lizzie

I sent off a couple of card to my Lizzie for her last week of school before the holiday. The first card started at the beginning of my Cricut experience. I cut these cute penguins from Zooballoo eons ago. I just never quite like anything I put them on. I'm glad I waited to use them cause I love this card. The ho, ho, ho is from Christmas Cheer. On the inside it says It's Christmas, Happy, Happy Christmas which from the classic vinyl Sleigh Ride, Jingle Bell album I had as a child. The songs are corny but very addictive!

The 2nd card I sent I used a cut file from Einnej. The Merry Christmas is an old Mamaw's Legacy file. Sadly the file isn't available anymore. I hope Lizzie gets the cards before she heads home this weekend and hopefully she will come home on a day when she doesn't have to dodge snowflakes or deer!

Get Whale soon

My Mother is having shoulder replacement surgery on Tuesday. I can't be there so we met them in Peoria today for lunch. I made this card for her. I used a leftover card base from my daughter's graduation invites. I used Just Because cart for the boat, whale and words. The waves are from Zooballoo. The other fish are from some 8 1/2 X 11 paper someone gave me.

A Card for my Hubby

Somewhere in the near future is a cruise on DH & I's calendar. I got inspired with left while leafing through a cricut handbook while waiting for a cut on the Cricut. This is what I came up with!

The waves and the clouds are from Zooballoo, the people are form Beyond Birthdays, Love you is from Lyrical Letters and the rest are from Life is a Beach. All the paper was leftovers except the water paper which I've had seen the dawn of time! Love to hear what you think of it. But SHHH! it's a surprise so if you see my hubby don't give it away! ;)

90th Birthday

Our dear Pastor Gerber celebrated his 90th Birthday yesterday. I wanted to do something super special for this wonderful man. We have been so honor to work along side him. I used an Old Summertime Pack from DCWV paper. On the front I used a Cake from the cart From my Kitchen and the worlds from Wild Card. On the inside I used a cut file from Just for Sharing. Sadly she doesn't post anymore. I had just discovered her too. I used Zoo Balloo Cart for the Happy Birthday, Storybook for the 90 and the edging on the cake and a Child's Year for the Candles. I blinged the candles with a little Stickles.
