Best of Pixar Flames

Hi all,

This is going to be a quick one. I made this card for a girlfriend's baby who is turning one. He has always been a bit of a terror...ie he was a bit colicky, never could be put down, never napped, and as he got older he gets into everything!! A really fun baby, but very very busy (as most are). When I recently got the Best of Pixar cartridge, the baby in the incredibles reminded me of him. He was always lighting stuff on fire, at the end of the movie anyways! and very cute! ha ha ha...anyways this is the card I made for him.

I usually don't do anything to the inside of the card, but I had some extra scraps that worked well and I needed to get the birthday stamp on it.

Recipe: Best of Pixar Cricut Cartridge, Create a Critter Cartridge (Flames), lemondrop, maraschino cherry red, and mandarin bakers twine from the twinery, recollections cardstock, DCWV christmas combo stack for the striped paper, yellow and orange peel stickles, scrappy moms sweet stuff stamps set, jillian vance designs owl set, black tsukinenko ink, small scalloped octagons spellbinders.

Thanks for checking it out!!

It's a Birthday and a Winner!!!

Hello,
Just another quick post with a quick project!! I made this card for my girlfriend who's son is having a first birthday! My whole prenatal class is turning one, so I've been busy crafting up cards for everyone!! This is one for my little buddy!! I went to Michaels and bought a sukura gel pen, because I have been seeing how awesome it looks on everyone elses cards and layouts. It did not dissapoint me!! I totally love it. it just adds something a bit extra to your card!! You'll be seeing it on every card probably now!! ha ha ha...anyways, I digress!!

Recipe: Create a Critter Cartridge, Ribbon, Jillian Vance Designs Owl so cute Stamps, recollections cardstock, tsukineko black ink, sakura white gel pen.

Cupcake Toppers!!

Hello all, again I feel like I have been out of touch with everything for a while (mostly because I have been)!!! This is just short post, but I wanted to show off some cupcake toppers I made for my daughter's frist b-day party.  She is turning one tomorrow, but we had her birthday party on saturday as I have to work nights tonight. So I used the love bug cut from Create a critter at 2 inches. I should have made them a bit bigger, but oh well. They worked out perfectly. I originally wanted to have red and black iced cupcakes (for ladybugs), but I am a poor planner for things like birthday parties and I just didn't get my act together...so i didn't have time for that.  I just made some "grass" icing and then used the cupcake toppers, everything worked out fantabulously though!! I also made chocolate and confetti cupcakes, my wierd sister (check out her blog at http://paulaspapercrafts.blogspot.com/) does not like chocolate!!!  WHAT???  I know I said it my sister doesn't like chocolate!! 

The first party was a bit emotional for me, and when I came across a card that I decided had a little too much writing on it, I just skipped over the reading to save for later in case I cried!! ha ha ha...I am a bit of a cry baby sometimes!! Oh well!! I can't believe how fast a year goes when you're not paying attention!! Here is a pic of my daughter at her first party too.

I also wanted to let you know about an awesome your story bundle, the christmas village cricut cartridge, and precision scissors pack are being given away by Cindy at Scrappin Room, go and check it out, it's a great chance to win a your story bundle and not to mention the other goodies you may win!!! Have a great day!!!
