Pinwheel Thank You Card

Recipe:
The Paper Studio Embossing card.
Cricut Imagine Yummy Cartridge for scallop circle, swirl, and Thank You color.
Thank you was made from the Wild Card Cricut Cartridge
I used Modge Podge Dimensional Magic on the swirls and the Thank You.
To create the pinwheel I used Martha Stewarts Lattace border punch and the Martha Stewart Score board. I cut the 12 in paper to a 1 1/2 inch strip. used punch on edge then scored the paper every 1/4 inch.

My Creative Time Design Team Call

I am so excited to share the pop up card I just made for the MY CREATIVE TIME DESIGN TEAM CALL! I have not been able to buy any of her stamps yet but I really like them. The mixture of fonts she uses are very pretty and unique. Inside the card I used a recipe for what I call Shimmer Mist that I had found. The pop up pattern I used is from Robert Sabuda's free pop up card patterns and directions. I cut it out on Colorbok paper then distressed the edges of the flower and the card with Cranberry "Ink it up" ink.

The outside of the card was made with the Birthday Extravaganza  and Adhesive Simplicity paper by The Paper Studios. The scalloped circle on the front was printed on my Cricut Imagine using the Imagine More cartridge. I distressed the edges with Tim Holtz "Vintage Photo" distress ink.
I hope you enjoyed the card! I don't know if I have a chance because of all the talented people out there but never hurts to give it a try.

National Boss Day

I made a card and matching rosette for Bosses Day. I used the Cricut Imagine, Imagine More Cartridge to make the flower for the front. I used my Martha Stewart Scoring board to score the rosette. I scored the paper every half inch then folded it. I cut out circle and put hot glu on them then glued the rosette to the circle. I did ths for both sides. I then attached the Grateful flower from the Imagine More Cartridge to the front of the rosette. I then glued a pencil into the center of the rosette to hold it up in the flowers we bought them. On the card I used the same flower then used my Wild Cards Cricut Cartridge for the saying. I used the Martha Stewart Flower Border cutter and the scallop border cutter for the trim of the card.

Go to "You had me at Craft" and join in they party. Post your projects.

Happy Halloween Pop up Card for My Pink Stamper Challange

Hi all! I decided to challange myself with a pop up card for the My Pink Stamper Blog Hop Challange. Challenge: Make a goodie bag or 3-D item that is for a Holiday. Any Holiday or Occasion will be perfect.
I love pop up cards. They are so fun to make so I thought I would start with some help from Robert Sabuda's website. This way I could get a better technical grasp of the process and create more interesting cards.  Here we go! You can see the pop up better from top view.

Have a blessed day!
