Eagle Scout Card

I can't remember if I shared this one yet or not. I couldn't find it so I'm guessing not. If I did, here it is again. :) I found the image by searching Eagle Scout Cartoon. I used the print and cut feature on my silhouette. For the background paper I searched for an image of boy scout patches.   It was originally a darker image but I faded the paper.  It turned out a lot better than I thought.  It's simple but works perfectly.

Don't you just love this Eagle?  I love his smile.  :)

I wish I would have had a rounded pocket but oh well.  It's a real pocket, we did put a little cash in it.
This cut was a male's shirt, I created my own collar to make it more feminine.

Baptism Invitation

Hi Crafters! Today's project is something I made over a month ago. Yeah, it's taken me this long to post it. :)  My nephew was baptized in October and this was the invitation that I made for his friends, family, and Primary teachers.  It's a simple invitation but I like it.  It is for a boy after all.  :)

The reason the CTR shield looks crooked is because it is on an Action Wobble.  Needed to make it interactive.  :)  In case you are not aware of what CTR stands for, it means 'Choose the Right'.  It is a shield/design that reminds us to choose the right after we have been baptized.

This is the back of the card.  I made it like a postcard in that it didn't open up but just turned over.  It cut back on cardstock used and the weight of the card.

I have 2 more projects set for this week, one for the Simply-Crafts challenge and the other for the Cookie/Card challenge.  So a fun week!

SUPPLIES:
CTR Shield - Silhouette cut file
Action Wobble
Checkerboard Cuttlebug Embossing Folder
Black, Neon Green Silver, White Cardstock

Fall Poster Board

Hi Crafters! I thought I had posted this already then checked and oops! :) This is a poster I made for a church activity.  The pumpkin and leaf cuts came from the Silhouette store and I used my Silhouette for it.  The poster size is 12" x 24".  The grass, sky, and frame paper is from the K&i Memories Classic Prints paper pad.  LOVE the colors!!!  Gorgeous.  I just LOVE Fall/Winter colors.  I lean more towards the darker colors.  I used my printer to print out the information on white cardstock.  The solid cardstock (pumpkins and leaves) is just random cardstock I had on hand.

Thanks for stopping by!

Multi-Tie Card

Hi Crafters!  Todays card was made for a missionary but it could definitely be used for a Father's Day card.

A young man in my church is going on a 2 year mission for our church.  He is going to South Africa Johannesburg.  How cool is that?  I have a DCWV Safari paper pack so I chose designer paper from there to make my ties.  The paper also has a material feel to it.  Love it!

The tie cut came from the Simply Charmed Cricut cartridge.  Sized at 3.5".  This really is a super simple card to make and you can definitely customize it towards whoever you give it to.  

 Here is the inside:

Missionary Card

This card I made was really simple.  It's for a young man in my church that is headed off on his 2 year church mission to Lubbock, Texas.  I used the new Missionary Icons digital cartridge, exclusive through Cricut Craft Room.  I cut it out at 3.5" w/ all of the layers.  I flood filled the tie and the background paper from the Heirloom Imagine cartridge.  After I took the picture I wrote ELDER in white gel ink on the name tag.  It looked better, looked finished.  Anywho, enjoy!

Good Luck Missionary

Here is a card I made for a young man in my church that is heading out on his mission for two years.  I can't remember where he is going but I know it's in the states so that is why I chose to do more of a red/white/blue theme.  This image is cut from the Simply Charmed Cricut cartridge.  I cut out everything but the face.  I love the Simply Charmed cartridge but not a fan of everything having a face on it.  Luckily I have my Gypsy to hide those cuts.  :)

The designer paper for the tie came from my Imagine.  I used the Heirloom Imagine cartridge and printed off a sheet of that paper.  I then used that in my Expression to cut out the image.  The reason I did this is because I wanted to tilt the top knot at an angle so it looks like the tie is actually "tied".  If that makes any sense.  :)  I hand cut out the badge.

The card is an A2 size card, the red layer is 4" x 5.25" and the Simply Charmed shirt/tie cut is at 5".

Paper Playtime Challenge #17 - Autumn

This week's challenge over at Paper Playtime is the theme of Autumn.  So what does a little bear praying have to do with Autumn?  There is a reason for it.  :)  Our sponsor this week is Robyn's Fetish digital stamps.  They are providing a giveaway to the winner of the challenge so be sure to participate, it's a lot of fun!  This digital stamp is one of theirs and I just fell in love with it.  They also have some amazing digital paper collections which I used as well for this card.  So the coloring in the card is more Autumn than the image.  Didn't it turn out so cute? 

The following is how I made this card:  First I printed the image on white cardstock:

Then I printed out two pages of the digital paper on one piece of white cardstock:

Then I put that sheet of paper back in my printer tray and printed the image on top of it:

I did this on 3 other sheets of paper (6 different digital designer papers).  Then I cut out the pieces I wanted from each and paper pieced them together.  Then glued them on the first white cardstock that had the image on it.  Everything is paper pieced except the bear fur.  I colored that in.  You'd think that I wasted a lot of ink and paper but I can make multiple cards of the same image and paper piece what's left to create the cards.  So they will be similar but each different.  If that makes sense.  :)  Paper piecing was a lot more fun that I thought it would be.  I'll definitely have to try it out again.

Another Baptism Card

Here is another baptism card I made for this girl I use to teach in Primary. The hair was cut from Paper Doll Dress Up. The actual cut is longer hair for this style but I needed it shorter so I gave her a little trim w/ some scissors. :) The doll and clothes is from Everyday Paper Dolls. The paper and ribbon is from PTI. I used the Peachy Keen Everyday Character Face assortment stamp set for her face. I used the Daisy Cuttlebug folder on her dress. I don't believe that this is sold by itself. I got mine in the Gratitude set. I also used the Versamark pen around the hair for added dimension.

Baptism Card - Ryan

My nephew is getting baptized this weekend and I wanted to make a card for him. He just turned 8. The CTR means Choose The Right. A reminder for kids in my church to make the right choices.

The cuts come from Everyday Paper Dolls (Person and clothes) and PDDU (the shield). I used Peachy Keen stamps for the face. The base paper and designer paper is from PTI. The shield paper is from DCWV Metallics paper pack. The paper doll is just generic cardstock.

Thanks for stopping by and looking!

Missionary Card

Here is a card I made for my brother, the missionary. I used the tie cut on the Father's Day page within the Designers Calendar cartridge. Then I got a scrap of skin tone paper and glued it behind the cut so it looks like he is wearing it. I also hand cut out a pocket and name tag. This would make a great card for a business man or Father's day card.

Welcome to Sunny Florida!

This card was made for my brother who when on his mission to Florida. He arrived in Florida at the beginning of stormy/hurricane season.
