Happy Mothers Day 2011

I think this card will be one of my favorites so far.  I have entered it into http://papercutzchallenge.blogspot.com/ Challenge #90 and http://morethanfavors.blogspot.com/2011/05/wacky-wednesday-37-mothers-day-theme.html Wacky Wednesday Challenge #37




I hade so much fun making this card, I really hope my Mother gets it in the mail in time.  I made it on time, but couldn't seem to get it in the mail box.  I created this card using my Gypsy just to make sure it would fit in an envelope and the Apron fit within the card.  I used the Cart From my Kitchen for all the cuts.  I welded the Stove at the top to make the card base.

Happy 40th Birthday!


I absolutely love the way this card came out.  I was so excited to send it off to my brother.  I used the over the hill on the Life's a Party cart, and thought the Vulture was perfect to put on the outside of the card.  Yes, I got a call and he Loved it!

It's a Seahorse Birthday!


Seahorse cut from my favorite Cartridge "Life's a Beach".I was teaching my mom how to use the cricut while she was visiting and decided to show her with this easy cut.  She did a great job on her's too.

All made from Scraps

I really do hate having so many scrap pieces of paper.  I do not throw anything away if it's bigger then around an inch.  The following cards were made from mostly ALL scraps.  I did throw in a few new pieces of cardstock.  Enjoy!!


I just love this card, although I did scrap lift it from http://www.creationswithchristina.com/  Check out her site, she is awesome. 



This photograph is what inspired me to make the card below.
