Delight in Life Birthday

This card is almost a complete CASE of Susan's card.  I just love the simplicity of her card and the colours.  If I were to make this card again, I would have used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to get the placement of the flowers just right.  I think Susan did a much better job with her flowers.

Femine Birthday - Around & About

I created this card for my niece's 30th birthday... it is hard to believe she is 30 and has two children!  I used my Cricut and Sure Cuts A Lot software for cutting out the circles and the scalloped circles.

Masculine Birthday - Around & About

My inspiration for my husband's birthday card came from Debbie's card.  I liked that I was able to use up a bit my stash of retired paper - I have more paper that is retired than stuff that is current!!!!  It is also AMAZING that I created a masculine card without using either stars or trees!  WOW!

Lady Bug Birthday

I created this card for my mom's birthday.  Her last name is Bugg so she has adopted lady bugs as her thing.  This card was super easy to create using my Cricut, Sure Cuts A Lot software and a SVG file from myscrapchick.com

Fifth Avenue Floral Watercolouring

I made this card pretty well copying Julie's card using the tutorial by Patty.  Since I needed two birthday cards, I decided to remake it making a few changes. 

I added some yellow ink to the flowers, which you can't really see in the picture.  I also rounded the corners of the Regal Rose background paper.  For both cards, I had cut the top note with my Cricut and Sure Cuts A Lot software, but for the second card, I decided to not keep the dimensions the same, but try and match them to the cards' dimension by using a width of 5" and  height of 3.75 inches.  I don't like it as much as the size I used in the first card.  I also decided to emboss the top note piece on my second card so that made me change the way I did the sentiment.  Both cards use the little leaves created with my Cricut and SCAL software, but I used Certainly Celery for the first card and Mellow Moss for the second.

Banner Day Flower

I created this card for my soon-to-be 15 year old niece.  I used the flower from the Banner Day Clip Art set from Lettering Delights, which is a freebie right now.  Using Photoshop Elements, I separated the pieces and filled them in with black.  I then used my Sure Cuts A Lot software to trace and then cut each piece with my Cricut.  My colour choices were inspired by the actual colours used on the clip art.  I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to stamp the sentiment on the leaves.  I just put tape over the word I didn't want inked, inked the stamp and peeled off the tape.
