13

A colleague asked me to make a card for her niece's 13th birthday - she likes to play soccer so I used an old stamp set I had that had a soccer ball in it - looking at the photos though, the ball looks like a flower!  Hmmm ... oh well!  I also used the Card Chatter - Birthday and Artiste to cut 13 out (at 1-1/2" and 1-1/4") and the 1-1/4, 1-3/4 and 2 inch circles.  The 1-3/8 circles were a punch.  The easel card base was 4-1/4 x 8-1/2 and then scored at 4-1/4 and 6-3/8.  The card front was 4-1/4" square and embossed with a folder from the wedding suite set.  I added a bit of bling onto the edge of the Hip hip Hooray banner.

Have a great day!

The Boy has a Car

Well the boy has a car ... I don't know whether to be happy for him, or even more scared for me!  Oh the perils of growing up - it's way harder on the parents!   LOL!

Anyway, pulled this card together for him - hope he likes it!

It's 8-1/2 x 5-1/2" so is a big card and I used Cricut Craft Room so am not sure what size the car was cut at.  I seem to be making not standard size cards these days - not sure what that's all about!  



Have a great day!

Supplies used:

Slate ink
Cricut Father's Day cart for the car
CTMH It's Your Day for Best Day Ever
CTMH Cruisin Workshop on the Go stamp set for the background stamped on the silver paper
