handcrafted cards . . .heartfelt expressions
Hi all,
Today I made a missing you card for OWH. The image is a print and cut from the Silhouette on line store. The sentiment is a stamp I purchased at Michael’s. l have several different missing you cards that I made and plan to include in my box of cards to OWH. This card is a combination of Cameo and Cricut cuts. I used my Cameo for the print and cut and my Cricut Expression and Elegant Edges for the mat.
I am also entering this card in Pause Dream Enjoy’s Linky party.
Hi all,
Today I made a shaped birthday card using LD Birthday Fishes file. I brought the image of the Octopus to the Cameo mat. Then I made 2 offsets to get the layers for the image to sit on. I duplicated the image and moved to the side. Then I created a box for the image to be welded to. Once that was done, I mirrored the image to the left and welded the two shapes to form the card. I used the cut and print feature to create the water with the sentiment. I separated the duplicated image ( saved from above) and cut each layer out. I then cut all the layers out and assembled the card. I was able to match the colors for the layers by using the eyedropper and color bucket in the silhouette.
I am sending this card to OWH. I think it will make a great kid card. I am submitting this card in Creative Cutting Challenge #36 Anything Goes, Craftin Desert Diva’s color challenge, PDE Linky Party #12 Beach, Silhouette Challenges #14 Shaped Card

Hi all,
Operation Write Home’s Challenge for it Midweek Throwdown is Masculine Cards any theme. They are in need of some missing you cards. I decided to use this SVGCutting files image for my card. I love the SVG Cutting files images. They are very easy to assemble. I used the cut and print feature on my Cameo to make the sentiment. I made several of these cards to add to my box of cards for the troops.
Operation Write Home is a non-profit organization that sends handmade blank cards to the troops so they can write home to their love ones.
Hi all,
Today I made an Easter Box in a Card for my grandchildren. I used my Cameo and a file from the silhouette on-line store by Lori Whitlock for the base of the card. The card is an A2 size when folded . The cute Easter images and paper
are from an LD file I purchased. I cut the images at approximately 2 inches using the print and cut feature. I also added another insert to the box so I could use more images. I am entering this into Cardz TV Card Challenge # 5 Create a card for Easter.
Hi all.
Today I made my first Box in a Card. I used the Disney Mickey and Friends Cricut Cart. I followed the design that Cara Miller posted for the box on her Let’s Learn Cricut Facebook page. It is a closed group but if you are interested let me know so I can get you added. She provided the CCR file for the box and I was able to figure out the size of the images I wanted to add. I cut most of the images at 2.5 inches. When it is closed it folds flat so you can put it in an envelope. It was a lot of work but I made it for my grandson’s first birthday next week and he is worth all the effort!
I am also going to enter this in CARDZTV 3d birthday challenge. I hope you all have a great day.
Hi all,
Operation Write Home’s Midweek Throwdown is a Color Challenge. They requested we use pastel colors to create a card for our troops to use to write home. I used my Cameo and the print and cut feature to cut out these cute owls from Miss Kate Cuttables. The bow is a die from My Creative Time.
Hi all,
I originally intended this project to be a card but after it was completed I decided to keep it as a table decoration. It looks so cute on my kitchen shelf. I was inspired to create this project by Fantabulous Cricut Challenge blog. They asked us to Create a project using Black & Purple as your main colors. I used the cricut Happy Hauntings cartridge and cut the witch at 4 inches with all her layers. I made a step card and attached her, the title and the ghost from the same cartridge to the first and top steps. I added google eyes and embossed the broom with the swirls folder and my cuttlebug. The paper is from a Halloween pack I purchased at Michaels last year.
Hi all,
This week we were challenged to use an element of nature on our cards for our heroes to send home to their love ones. I used the snowmen from Dollar Graphics Depot file called Frosty Long Stocking. I think the images and their sentiments are adorable. The scallop frame is from the Elegant Edges Cricut cartridge. I love this cartridge. It has some really nice shapes.
Hi all,
Today I made these cute Halloween barrettes and pumpkin bag for my little grand daughters. I used the Cricut Tags, Bags, Boxes and More 2 for the pumpkin bag. I made the hair clips using the Clever Barrette Covers dies from PTI. The flowers were made with a Sizzix die . I had a lot of fun making these and know my grand daughters will love them.
I am entering these into the decorate to celebrate challenge #61 Witch’s Brew. You can follow their blog at http://decoratetocelebrate.blogspot.com/ Their design team offers loads of great ideas for making fun projects to add to parties or home decor.
