Time for baseball

The cute little bird and baseball paper are from Doodle Pantry.  Printed the saying on the card and baseball paper then cut out with my Cameo.  The bird and red layer were cut out with Spellbinders circles dies.  This is for the little boys at the childrens charity.

Butterfly card

I bought this butterfly card cutting file from the Silhouette store a long time ago and never cut it out.  I love how it turned out.  Hope it will make the kids at the childrens charity smile.

Hi dude

 

This cute little boy is one of the Strawberry Shortcut print and cut files from the Silhouette store.  I cut out the image and saying with my Cameo.  Stars were cut out with a Sizzix die.  Papers from my stash.  This is for the little boys at the children's charity.

Tweety Easter Card

I bought this Tweety Easter image last year from the Silhouette store and never used it.  Printed it out along with the saying.  Cut out the saying banner with my Cameo.  Cut out the image, blue layer and border with Spellbinders dies.  I think the little kids at the children's charity will smile when they see Tweety with the bunny ears.

Lacy Butterfly - 2nd post

I bought this pretty butterfly card cut file from the Silhouette store a long time ago and never cut it out.  My New Years resolution was to try and use some of those impulse buys so I am working my way through my cut file collection.  I also have a lot of yellow cardstock that I bought when it was on sale at Michaels so I am using that up as well.  I plan to send this to the children's charity.  Hopefully the bright yellow butterfly will make them smile.

Remember the song from Paul Anka called Puppy Love?  That's what popped into my mind when I tried to think of a title for this blog post.  This card is for my hubby for Valentine's Day.  He loves dogs, so I thought this darling digi image called "Heart Puppy" from Eureka Stamps would be perfect for his card.

Colored the digi image with Copic Markers.  Used a gold glitter pen for the dog tag.  Designer paper is from the Robin's Nest.  Image printed Neenah cardstock.  Cut out the digi image with Spellbinders square dies.  Scalloped border and the heart shaped ribbon holder are cut files from the Silhouette store.  Cut those out with my Cameo.  Mounted image to card with pop dots for a little dimension.

3D Shadow Box Card

This is one of the new 3D shadow box cutting files at the Silhouette store by Lori Whitlock.  It's a neat design, but very tricky to put together.  I cut it out of 110 lb GP white card stock and found that it wasn't sturdy enough.  Next time I cut this out, I plan to use a very heavy weight card stock.  That way it will hold the shape better and not bend towards the center.
