Happy Birthday Janea!

Happy Birthday to my very dear friend, Janea. I made this super cute card for her and mailed it off yesterday. Her birthday is on sunday. Hopefully she doesn't check on my blog too often :) I hope she likes it!!

Thanks Barb!!!

Just a little thank you card for Barb (Jenn's mom<3) She sent me some stuff from Craft Warehouse in WA. I'm telling you, I will DEFINITELY have to take a trip out there with Jenn and go on a craft supplies shopping spree lol

Happy Birthday Jenn!!

Well I didn't make Jenn's present this year but I did make her card lol. It came out super cute. I can't get enough of these button birds.

As you can see, this is my favorite angle to capture my projects lol Blame it on Jenn! she taught me how to best photograph my creations :)

Hope you had an amazing birthday Jenn <3

Feeling a little blue lately...

I've been really homesick lately, so this card was sort of an outlet for those feelings. The inside says Without You. My husband laughed at the fact the little bird's tail is droopy because he's sad lol. He thought it was a really cute idea. Then I said to him "that's because he's BLUE, get it? he's blue/sad" LOL He started laughing even more. He was pretty impressed, and of course I was beaming. The lettering is printed from my computer, the umbrella is from Paper Pups widened and shortened. I used a glitter pen for the raindrops. The backround paper is from the Cool Spectrum pack. Everytime I looked at that specific sheet I was reminded of a dreary day, so when I came up with the idea for the card I knew I would have the perfect paper to use!

I LOVE these button birds!!!

I absolutely LOVE these little button birds!! I saw a card posted on the Cricut Messageboard by Shelly http://cardsbyshelly.blogspot.com/ and I knew I HAD to try it. I didn't have a flourish stamp for the tails so I thought I would change it up a bit and use jewelery wire :) I can't wait to do another card using these little guys!
