Retirement Card (2S4Y - Laura's Sketch #55)


I know at least 3 people retiring in the next 2 months so Laura's Sketch #55 allowed me to use some scraps and make a cute card that could be used for retirement or another happy event where congratulations are in order. The happy for you is from the cricut cartridge "just because cards" and also used fabulous and enjoy from the Wild Card Cartridge for some of the others I made. Now I will have a little stash so I'm ready! Thanks for the great sketch Laura!

Card Patterns #69 - Birthday cards

I used card patterns #69 to make some birthday cards. I made them a little different (and used up some of my scraps!). I've got bigger pictures of each one below!

The cake is from the Summer in Paris cricut cartridge and cut at about 4.5 inches. I tried doing it smaller but it is very intricate!

Thanks for looking and have a great weekend!

60th Birthday Card (2 Sketches 4 You)


I used Laura's Sketch #54 to make a 60th birthday card for a party I'm going to next week. I wanted to make something that wasn't traditional so I used the "so last year" from the Cricut Forever Young cartridge. I had paper in my stash that I used (it is for a man so I didn't want to to be too cutesy!).

Happy Father's Day (Card Patterns #68)

I used card patterns sketch #68 to make a card for my dad! I put a little bling on it (hopefully that will be okay).













I also wanted to share a card I used Card Patterns Sketch #67 on for graduation! Even though I never make the super 6, the sketches give me inspiration!

Card Patterns #67 - Bee Happy!


This is a door hanger ~ not a card! I found the the bees and the bee happy on one of the new cricut cartridges and just had to use it. I've had the buzzz paper for years as it came in a DCWV summer stack years ago. A perfect match! And card patterns sketch #67 was the perfect template to use! Thanks for looking!
