Here's a fun card I made for my parents. I used the Gypsy to weld the Doodlecharms egg image to make the card, and the bunny is from Celebrate With Flourish. I made the hat using the Forever Young cart and the Le Chic stamp is from Close to My Heart. Enjoy! :) Maria
I made my Easter cards on Saturday at the last minute and the ones I need to mail are waiting in my car right now! Better late than never, right? I used my Gypsy to weld the egg card together with an image from Doodlecharms. I made the chicks with the Celebrate With Flourish cart, I really like that one. I cut the hat from Forever Young and the stamp I used is from Close to My Heart. I think these chicks are very chic! Enjoy. :) Maria
I love weddings and bridal showers! I have a cousin who is getting married at the end of this month and her bridal shower is this weekend. It's wonderful to have happy occasions to inspire my card making! I used the Celebrate with Flourish cart for the umbrella and cut off the flourish. I used the Stretch Your Imagination cart for the hearts and a Susan Branch celebration stamp. Hope she likes it! Crafty Creations #113- Rain Showers , Fantabulous Cricut #54- April Showers
Wow, it's been a while since I've had a chance to post or even craft at all. Last month we had a flood when our water heater exploded and all of my time has been centered around house stuff in addition to our normal crazy school and after school schedule. We still have a long way to go to get our house back to normal, but next week is spring break for school and I hope to use some of my home time to craft as well as do Turbo Tax! Juliette is going to an ice skating birthday party this weekend and I wanted to make a card for her friend. I used the Christmas Cricut cart for the ice skate. Juliette came up with the brilliant idea of adding the tiny gems to the shoe, it really made the image pop out. Enjoy! Maria and Juliette
It is never easy to come up with ideas for a card for a teenage boy, but the Indie Art Cricut cart has some great images that my son likes. He told me recently he liked the 8 ball image so that's what I used for his Valentine. I cut the heart with Doodlecharms. :) Mara
Here's a fun card I made for Juliette for Valentine's Day. She got to dance in a ballet production this weekend and after the last show we all went out for dinner. The dress she wore was very similar to the one on the card. She also has cute, black heels. :) Maria
Today has been the best day! I've had the entire day to craft! Juliette helped me make some valentine treat bags for her ballet friends. They are all dancing in a show Valentine's weekend and I know there will be no time to craft close to the time so thankfully we got it all done today! Juliette stamped and embossed and did some of the folding. I did all the cutting and the rest of the folding and assembly. We needed 11 but made 14 just in case we need extras. They are all different, some are stamped and embossed with ballet shoes, Happy Valentine's Day, or hearts. Others have cut out hearts (Doodlecharms) and a flower punch. I cut the heart purse using the Tags, Bags, Boxes and More Cricut cartridge. :) Maria and Juliette
I am attending a retirement party today for an aunt who has recently retired after working for many years at a bank. She loves to play the guitar and sing in her spare time so I thought this image was perfect for her! I used the guitar from Slumber Party, the relax and enjoy from Life's a Beach and the music notes from Gypsy Wanderings. :) Maria
A week or so ago my awesome aunt, who manages a spa and salon, treated J and me to a manicure! We wanted to thank her right away so I made this card to send to let her know how much we appreciated her kindness! It was so nice to be spoiled at the salon! :) Maria
This is a good luck card I made for J before a Winter ballet show she did this past weekend. It's good luck to tell ballet dancers "merde" before a performance. The dress is very similar to the one she wore! It was a great show and she loved the card. I used the gypsy to weld the letters together and the Shall We Dance Cricut cart for the dancer. :) Maria
I have been sooo super busy that there has been no time for crafting! My son went to a birthday party on Saturday for a friend who is a 13 year old boy and I made this card for him. He liked it and thought it was super cool! I used the Indie Art Cricut cartridge for the dragon which I got recently from the free Gypsy cart download. I also used the Happy Birthday from Gypsy Wanderings. I love Indie Art, there are lots of cool images that I think work great for teen boys. Enjoy! :) Maria
