Bridal Shower Card

  Hello and happy Tuesday to you all. Today I am sharing a Bridal Shower card that I made for my great-niece Amber.

Her bridal shower theme is Bees. Such a cute theme, but I wasn't for sure if I had any stamps of bees. Finally found one.  So here is the card that I made her.

The stamp set is from Bo Bunny called Hello Sunshine. I had only used this stamp set one other time, so it was nice to get to use it again.

The sentiment I typed out in Cricut design space and printed it with my printer. The font is called Ink Free.

Used a larger scalloped rectangle die to make the card base. Also used a smaller die from the same set for the card front.

The designer paper is from Bo Bunny it's also called Hello Sunshine. Also used white and black cardstock. 

Colored the little bees with alcohol markers and used a red glitter heart sticker for them to hold. I almost never use stickers, so I was happy to use one. 

Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful week!

Beloved Bouquet

 Hello, glad you could stop by. Today is Valentines Day. The day we let our loved ones know that we love them. So, this is my Valentine card that I created.

You can't tell but I messed up one of my flowers when I stamped It. So, I covered It by adding the scalloped heart borders. 

Hated to throw It away after all that. So glad that I could save It.

After I scored the lines, I dragged red Ink across It and then dragged Black Ink.

Young & Sweet and only 17 Birthday Card

  Good morning, so glad you could stop by. For my card today I made my granddaughter a record player card. 

When she was a little girl, we would listen to all sorts of music. Having fun singing and dancing. One of the songs that we liked was a song from the 70's called Dancing Queen.

 I told her that when she turned seventeen, I would play the song for her. Well, that day is here. Today is her 17th birthday. The years have flown by. I wish I could turn back time and go back to those fun times. 

So, for her birthday card I wanted too somehow add that song to it. So here is the card I came up with.

 The stamp and die set are from Sugar Pea Designs called Greatest Hits. Also used various dies and star punch.

I used the draw feature on Cricut to create the words to the song. It was my first time using it. I didn't have a Cricut pen in black, so I used an extra fine sharpie. 

I had to take out the center pen holder and wrapped two pencil grippers around the pen. You do have to cut one side of the gripper. I tried just one gripper, but it wasn't enough to keep the pen steady. Was so happy that it actually worked.

For the card I also used S.U. clear embossing powder, versa mark, brads, heat gun, packing foam to use with my cutting dies and my very old and very loved cuttlebug. 

You can't tell but the record is shiny from the clear embossing powder.

I wanted to add a disco ball but didn't have anything like it, so I cut out three circles with glitter silver cardstock. The stars are also made with yellow glitter cardstock.

Hoping that she likes her card. She will be coming later after school. We will be listening to Dancing Queen and having her favorite Strawberry Angel Cake. (You can find the recipe on the left-hand side bar.)

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!

Happy Birthday Scarlett River!!!
