Quick Birthday Card

This card can be made in a matter of minutes. Use a Cuttle Bug folder to emboss the flower and lightly chalk the embossing. Find a picture with a cute face and cut just the face out. Add a cute graphic with dimensionals and attach a bow.

Paper Wallet

One of our students won state competition and is headed to nationals in Tennessee. This paper wallet holds a twenty dollar bill for her to spend on her trip, a tag to attach to her suitcase for easy sighting, and good luck sentiments.
I used specialty paper from K&C's Happy Trails. Stickers are semi-transparent with a bit of glitter. Magnet clasp was attached with two strips of card stock threaded through the opening and glued together. I tried my hand at top stitching for an accent on the outside. Sorry the bottom picture is a little blurred. The wallet was delivered, before I had a look at the photos. Of course I cut all of this out with my Gazelle. I think the file still need a pit of tweaking before I share. But I am pleased with the results.

By request here is the tissue box I made a while back with graphics from Susan Seals called "Roses". They can be found at pccrafter.com Below is another version of the same template. I printed the top one on plain paper and laminiated one side before folding the box. The one purple box is printed on cardstock, no lamination. Here is the png template for the box. I did work this up for my Craft robo.

Here is my take on the Graduation Gift Card Holder by Alicia Coulombe from Splitcoast Stampers for the Gazelle. I made glue flaps and inside covers. All is cut with my Gazelle by Bosskuts.

Get Well Gel Embossed

Gazelle by Bosskuts gets the credit for this card. It is amazing machine. I'm still on the learning curve. Secured the corner with brads. Dimensionals were used under the get well.

The scroll was two cuts. The front scroll was cut in half for freedom of placement.

To make this card I used a Gelly Roll Stardust pen. The font is Edwardian Script. If you are intested here is the WPC file. I put the pen in first and selected only the font area. Then I selected everything but the font and cut. I can do a PDF if someone wants to convert to a GSD.

As you can see I'm back up and running in the camera department. Yeah!
