Birthday Card - Using Cricut Give A Hoot Cartridge



I love this card! I made it to my friend Laura, for her birthday.
I had no time to make something from scratch and I had this little guy ready to go in one of my boxes. I cut him when I first got the Give A Hoot cart and thought that he is the cutest Buddy over there. I cut few acorns alons with him and used them as well on the card as you can see in the pictures below.
The pattern paper is from K&Company Sweet Nectar stack - I love this stack, it's so colorful and happy, very springy. The colorful ribbon was found hiding in my ribbons box. Stamps - Make a wish - Studio G, Thinking Of You - Inkadinkado #98780.


SO, one acorn was used as a stamp - which I thought was a great Idea, as my friend Laura, is working at the post Office - where I visit daily.           



Inside the card I embellished with another acorn, stamped Happy Birthday and wrought my sentiment. Easy...

Cricut Cup Cake Birthday Card


It's birthday time again...
As a mother for three little ones we have lots of reasons to keep cut these cute and yummy cupcakes. This time I used a cream card base, brown embossed cardstock (Cuttlebug Polka Dots Embossing File), Cupcake die is from my favorite Cricut Cartridge - Straight From The Nest. I used a pink cardstock for the shadow, Polka Dots Pattern paper from DCWV stack - the Celebration stack. The cupcake top is magenta cardstock that I sticklled. And of course red cherry on top.
I used Martha Stewart Crafts paper tape - Modern Festive Paper Tape - Polka Dots.
Happy Birthday stamp - Recollections 5 stamps pack.
Twine - De Nami Design - turquoise and white.
I inked all pieces with pink or light brown pigment inks that I have.

Keep cutting...
