craft sale cards!

Well I've failed at not making any more Create a Critter cards! My mom is getting a table at an upcoming craft sale so as of now, thats what I'm creating for! These are cuts I made before and just never used, so now here they are in simple cards! I'm thinking that I will charge $3.00 a card or two for $5.00. I also want to sell sets of five cards for $10.00. I'm hoping that will go over well for Christmas cards and such! Anyways heres some cards I made recently. 

Here's the puppy cut from create a critter and sentiment cut for jubilee. Simple cards but so cute! 

A Couple New Cards!

Two A2 cards that I made recently. Of course its the create a critter cartridge. I have more cartridges but I just love how childish this one is I guess. I will have to challenge myself to make a card with a different cartridge, then I need to buy create a critter 2!  Anyways heres what I've made! 

First is Hogs and Kisses,  the sentiment is cut for everyday cards I believe and of course my little piggy is create a critter. I'm still learning to control my urge to glitter everything. Oh well, you gotta start somewhere!

This card I am in love with. Hoppy birthday is cut with jubilee and the frog was create a critter. All I did was glossy accent the belly, cheeks and eyes on this little guy and glittered the letters. I really love how this one turned out. :)


Thanks for checking this out! I will try something new tomorrow!!

Embossed Backgrounds!

 I've always had such a problem picking background paper for cards so I decided I'd try something new. I got the idea from pinterest, not sure the owner. However its simple enough it could have been anyones idea. I cut the cupcake from create a critter at 3 inches and glossy accented the cherry and eyes. I cut a regular A2 card out of kraft card stock and then the white piece at 4x5 1/4. I stamped out my sentiment first and it says "you deserve a day sprinkled with fun!" Then I chose an embossing folder and ran it through my big kick! Tied some bakers twine and popped the image up on dimensions and called it finished! 

 This is yet again, create a critter bird cut at 3 inches. Everything is the same as the last card just with minor changes.  I wanted a way to make cards fast and easy because you can never have to many. Aside from the cutting it only took me about 5 minutes to complete! I'd say thats a success! The stamp says "its your day" and is just from the $1.50 bin at Michaels! :)

To finish off all of my cards from now on I will be adding this cute little stamp of a hand that says "handmade by" and of course, filling my name in. I got this stamp so long ago from the $1.50 bin at Michaels and I finally have got around to using it. What a great buy for $1.50!  I'm very happy! 

four year anniversary!

Well I am just awful at making cards for things I know that I need to make, so really I should be making my dear boyfriend a birthday card because he turns 21 on Canada Day! Instead I made one for our four year anniversary which will be on August 10th! This is just another simple card, nothing fancy but he will love it. :) Please pardon my horrid lighting, my camera just wouldn't work! 

 I used the squirrel on the create-a-critter cartridge cut at 3 inches. I glossy accented the eyes and nose ( finally got some control! Instead of covering everything with it) I cut out "4 years" with jubilee and added that. This is a regular A2 sized card.

On the inside I matted the card and added the sentiment from create-a-critter that says "nuts about u" Jeff knows I love corny, punny things and I'm sure he will shake his head while I laugh but I know he will appreciate the card.

Jeff and I at his dads wedding. I will post more pictures of us and our story closer to the date :) 

Thanks for reading! 

horse ribbon!

Today was the first show of the season for Greyden, and even though I was unable to compete due to my appendix being removed two weeks today, I couldn't miss it! Everyone did so amazing I am so proud to be a part of such an amazing team! Anyways while being stuck in bed I made this rosette for one of my favorites, Brianna. She came out of the show as the Grand Champ and it was just so incredible to watch :) Anyways I wanted to make her a special prize because she is so special to me! She really deserved her win and I am so proud of her. She's the little sister I've always wanted!
