Thrifty Card

So I challenged myself to take paper I did not care for and turn it into something I liked.
This pack of cards was .25 cents at Michael's. It is a nice heavy weight of cardstock.

The black left over scrap from another card was used for a frame. I secured the paper into place with two pieces of tape. Then I add my favorite adhesive ATG tape gun and attached it the card.

I cut the saying with my Cuttlebug using a Nestibilities die, embellished with a bow. What do you think. Not to bad and I used paper I would not consider using.

Baby Boy Card

Redesigned the stork card for a boy. I used Swiss Dot folder for my Cuttlebug for the background of the white. Inside is the negative of the rattle and blocks that spell boy. I cut everything with my Gazelle this time. I have not quite got the hang of converting WPC files into GSD.

I will be posting the final of the wedding announcements.

Valentine Slider

This cute candy slider is a quick project for Valentines day. I used the instructions from Dawn's Stamping Studio(here). Only I added a slip on band and graphics from pccrafter.com.

Wedding Invitations

I was asked to create a wedding announcement for January with colors of white, black and red. They want a snow theme. I worked up these three selection to for a start. It will be fun to see what we end up with. Below I have given you closeups:

This Cuttlebug embossed selection has a band embellished with a snowflake cut with my Craft Robo.

This is a gate card. The white to the back is where the announcement would peek through or a picture of the couple. It is embossed with hearts and embellished with a heart brad and a snowflake cut with my Craft Robo.

This selection was embossed with swirls linked hearts and words from Cuttlebug "With Love", charm and red ribbon.

Vellum embossed snowflakes for the closure seals on the envelopes were printed black and then embossed with opaque power.
I will post the final announcement once it is complete.

Diaper Centerpiece

This was a quick picture of a diaper three wheeler. I did make a couple of adjustments to this but did not get a picture before I gave it away. You can find them for sale here

Young Scrapper

Granddaughter was chosen for student of the week just before Christmas. She needed a poster of her favorite things. It is simple but I think she did a great job for a second grader.
