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.

March Birthday Gift Bag

I thought the circle calendar stamp from The Cutting Cafe' was a great way to personalize this birthday bag. I can't wait to fill it with some goodies for my friend's upcoming birthday. The bag was cut from the Cricut Plantin' Schoolhouse cartridge.

Experimenting with Stamps

I own a bunch of stamps but I'm not always that good about getting them out and playing with them. I had bought this stamp a while back and decided that I would try using different inks with it. I made this card after I had made a few different images and came up with the idea of blending them together in one long strip.

Card Folder and all Occasion Card Set

I've been so sick for the last 3 weeks that I've hardly had the energy to make anything. It felt so good this weekend to be able to create something again and to feel better too! I used three different sets from The Cutting Cafe to make this all occasion card set and the folder to hold them in too. I'm always giving away cards as gifts and this folder makes a wonderful way to present the cards.

Valentine's ATC

I just finished this one up today for a Valentine's swap. I'm loving the new face stamp I got and seem to be using it as much as I can.

Super Simple Card

The challenge for this card was to use an older patterned paper and only two elements. (that's right only 2!) I had some older KI paper and a matching chipboard frame that I used. The dymo label maker became my second element when I used it for my sentiment. Super super simple card.

Stamped Love Card

I've got a few cards to share that I made over the weekend for a Cyber Crop over at CX. This card turned out to be my favorite one. I'll share the others over the next few days.

Kiss Me (Lips)

I used two different cutting files to create this fun valentine's card...a border and the lips both came from the files. I use the PDF versions of the files and I love them. They really get me thinking outside my box. Check out the new website for The Cutting Cafe.

Life is Just Better With Cupcakes

I absolutely loved working with this cutting file from The Cutting Cafe! Since cupcakes are one of my favorite things, it made working with the file even more fun! The file is just loaded with adorable cupcake stamps and sayings. You may view this file and others at The Cutting Cafe.

Valentine's Gift Bag

This cute little bag is perfect for holding all kinds of little treats...from a gift card to a chocolate bar. The bag and the circle image are both files available from The Cutting Cafe.
