Happy Birthday, Ryan!

My 100th post and my son's 9th birthday!  Wow, time flies!  I made a card for my DS' birthday today which I'm also linking to the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge blog with the pocket theme.  This is an A2 sized card.  The dino cut is from the Cricut Create a Critter cart and is stamped with one of the Peachy Keen Everyday Character Face Assortment set.  The grass cuts were from one of the free images I got from the Silhouette Studio store and of course cut with the Cameo.  The sentiment font is from Lettering Delights called LD Red Hatter's Hand.

Here is a picture of the inside of the card.

All the cuts inside are cut with the Cricut.  The "pocket" tag to hold his special gift is from the Tags, Bags, Boxes and More (TBBM) cart, flood filled with art from the JT Imagine cart.  The "Happy Birthday" is from the Elegant Cakes cart.  The "Dino Mite" is from the Create a Critter cart.

Thanks for visiting me today!  

For Jelo

Just a quick post today.  I had to make a quick birthday card for my DD's classmate so she can hand him the gift with the card today since she wouldn't be able to come to his birthday party on Saturday.  Yes, there are  Imagine cuts on here but NOPE, I haven't used my Imagine in a long time LOL!  I just dread updating and calibrating this machine because it takes a loooooong time!  I have a small box of test cuts (thank God!) I keep since I hate throwing anything away ;).  And it came in handy too since I didn't have to whip out my Gypsy to design, nor turn on my Cricuts to cut. 

Ohhhh this box is screaming to be decorated -

but that can wait for another project ;). 

Anyway, the card above is an A2 sized card.  The Imagine cut in the front is from the Blast Off cart, and the scalloped oval cut is actually a negative cut from one of the card features from the CC Exclusive Sophie cart.  I used the Swiss Dots CB folder to emboss the background. 

Here is a peek of the inside of the card and the envelope.  The flames image is another Imagine cut, from the JT cart.  For the envelope, I used my Cameo to cut the starburst images and the "For Jelo" is a Word font called Lucida Handwriting, also cut with the Cameo.  All supplies used were from my stash! 

And that's it for today.  Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! 

CC Blogiversary Challenge #4 - Imagine Challenge

My entry for the CC Blogiversary Challenge #4 is a quick and simple one - a tag/gift card holder.  My children have been invited to a friend's birthday party in a couple of weeks and since I know we are getting him a gift card instead of trying to find something a soon-to-be 12 year old would like, I've created a gift card holder.

For this 4th challenge, we are asked to use our Imagine machine.  Here are the cuts before I assembled my project:

The tag/gift card holder image is from the TBBM cart, flood-filled with an art image from the JT Imagine cart.  The bass guitar image is also from the JT Imagine cart, all layers cut  and adhered together with foam mounts.  The sentiment "Celebrate" is a stamp from CTMH, stamped on a tag that is preloaded onto the Imagine machine itself, flood-filled with art from the Imagine More Cards.  I just embellished with ribbon and some Irock gems. 

Yep, told y'all it was quick and easy!  Hope everyone's having a wonderful Sunday!

****Ahhh!  Almost forgot to mention that this makes project #8 for Using My Stash pledge at the CC MB! ****
