For Always

We went to a beautiful wedding last month, and I made this card for the couple. When I heard their wedding colors were black and teal, I just knew the For Always paper pack was the perfect one to use. I really enjoyed cutting the couple silhouette as well as the Mr & Mrs images from my Close to my Heart Artiste Cricut cartridge. I love how the ribbon, flowers, and hat pin added just the right amout of detail to this card.

While I had the Cricut and this paper pack out, I decided to cut out this little purse with a pocket. I attached a little piece of velcro to keep it closed, and embellished it with a tiny pearl.

Just a few Dream Pop cards

The Dream Pop paper pack was only available from Close to my Heart in the month of May, but I couldn't help but make a few cards out of it this month.

I used the Word Balloons stamps set that came with the Cricut Artiste Collection on all three of these cards.

All three cards also include my new favorite embellishment - Silver Shimmer Trim!

Born to Ride!

I finally got to play with the Born to Ride stamp set (available at stampsnstuff.ctmh.com) last night, and I had a blast! I made this card for my future Father-in-law for Father's Day. He is a Harley fan, and a fan of any kind of creative artwork. To create this card, I first stamped and heat embossed the motorcyle image with black embossing powder. Then I stamped the small flame image with Sunny Yellow ink (a discontinued color) and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Then I stamped the large flame image with Tulip (another discontinued color) and clear heat embossed it. Then I stamped the "Born to Ride" image with clear embossing ink and heat embossed it with silver embossing powder. The whole background is smeared with a tissue and ink using Black, Smokey Plum (retired), Honey, Autumn Harvest, and Barn Red inks. I love how it turned out - I hope Pops does too!

Bun in the oven!

I made this card to send to a friend whom we just recently found out is expecting her first baby. I can only imagine her excitement - and we are pretty excited for her too.

I made this card using the Chantilly paper pack available from stampsnstuff.ctmh.com and a couple retired stamp sets that I can't bear to part with - Family Ties-Adults and Gracious Greetings. I colored the glowing mom-to-be using Close to my Heart's watercolor pencils, then used the blending pen to smudge the colors. I hope this cute little card adds a little more cheer to her day!
