Easter Sale at The Cutting Cafe'

You know how much I love the cutting files at The Cutting Cafe! There's a big sale there this weekend! Check it out: http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/the_cutting_cafe/2009/04/easter-weekend-special-two-for-one.html

Monogram Stationery Set (some cards)

Here's a couple of the cards that I made to go with my stationery box.

Monogram Stationery Set (the box)

I so love these little card boxes from The Cutting Cafe. There's even a file in this set to make matching envelopes. I'm thinking ahead to Christmas and making these for gifts. I also used the stamped monogram file to personalize the set.

Delight in the Day

Fun little card that I put together with scraps from my previous card and a ready made embellishment that came with my paper kit.

Much Thanks

I played with this little flower set of stamps from a store at Etsy http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6406219. Aren't they just the cutest stamps? I also couldn't wait to try out some more of my glimmer mists. Those mists are so easy to use. I just layed some shapes on my paper and sprayed away. I think my butterfly image and circle turned out pretty much the way I had envisioned.

Freedom Requires Service

The second half of my assignment last month was to create a "Freedom" layout. This is DS at his CAP graduation last summer. Check out the blogs at CX for a complete supply list and set of instructions.

Happy Trails

This was one of my assignments for CX last month (create a vacation layout). DH and I hiked to the highest part of the Smokey Mountains last summer. Can you tell I'm freezing???? Check out the blogs at CX for complete supply list and instructions.

E is for Easter

I made this card for a challenge over at Creative Xpress. The challenge was to use a large monogram on your card. I spruced up my giant "E" (love my cricut for things like this) with some buttons, ribbon, decorative pin, and a circle sentiment from The Cutting Cafe.

Happy Easter Card

I just had to try out this half circle card from the Cutting Cafe! This was just such a unique and fun shape to work with. I also used some of the Easter Sentiment stamps from the Cutting Cafe to create the cute little chick, it's egg, and my sentiment.

Please! Have a Happy Birthday!

This quick little card was a breeze to finish off with the bubble word file from The Cutting Cafe. I never know what to say on a card and these little files make it sooo much easier. I also picked up some Glimmer Mist over the weekend and just couldn't wait to play with it. The mist was fun! I used the mist to outline the center of my card.
