Mom's Birthday

Hi Scrappers :)

So my mom celebrated a birthday on the 12th of January. I had her birthday card made way before then. I didn't want to post it just incase she checked my blog. I couldn't give away what her card looked like before she saw it. So I'm posting now :) She enjoyed it. I used an action wobble on the cake so it would wobble and have the appearance of laughing. My sister loved it and wanted to make a hand made card for Mom as well. My sis designed a cute cupcake card and I put it together for her. She picked everything out.

Materials:
--Round Cake Card:

• Circle card cut by welding two circles together in my Gypsy. The card when folded together creates a 4.25" sized card. 
• Stripped layer is cut at 4"
• Cake is from the Smiley Cards cartridge (this was an exclusive download for Gypsy owners who registered their Gypsy before October 31, 2010). Cake is cut at 3".
• The icing layers were ran through the Xyron and Martha Stewart fine glitter was applied.
• Speech bubble is also from the Smiley Cards cartridge and it's cut at 1.75"
• "Happy Happy Birthday" is from a My Pink Stamper stamp set.
• Doodling around the edges finishes off the card.

--Square Cupcake Card:

• This card is a 4.25" x 4.25" card.
• Hot pink layer is cut to 4x4"
• The cupcake is from the Sweet Treats cartridge. (This cupcake has a heart that is supposed to be attached at the top. I put the frosting layer on and trimmed the heart off.) Cupcake is cut at 3".
• The cupcake wrapper was ran through the Xyron and Martha Stewart fine glitter was applied.
• The candles are also from the Sweet Treats cartridge. (These candles were from another cut I just enlarged them enough to fit on the top of the cupcake using my Gypsy). 
• The flower is from the Forever Young cartridge cut at 1". (The brown portion of the flower was also ran through the Xyron and glittered).
• "Happy Birthday" is a from a My Pink Stamper stamp set.

Thank you for stopping by. Happy Scrappin!

4 Year Anniversary

Hi Scrapers! Sorry it has been awhile since my last post but I've been busy. Wes and I celebrated our 4 year anniversary on December 30. So what better thing than to receive a hand made card. So I did just that. The card was centered around the couple from the Sweethearts cartridge. I received a collection of Martha Steward fine glitter for Christmas so I decided to run the couple through my Xyron and apply glitter. 

Materials:

• A2 size card in cream card stock
• Blue Core'dinations paper cut to 5.25x4 and ran through the Cuttlebug using the swiss dots folder  and sanded.
• Top notes are from Gypsy Wanderings (sorry I can't remember the size)
• Couple cut from the Sweethearts Cartridge at 3.5 (I believe)
• Happy sentiment is from a My Pink Stamper stamp set. The anniversary is from a cheap stamp set that was in my stash. 
• Finished off this card with a few red harts and some doodling around the edges. 

Thanks for stopping by. Happy Scrapping!

Happy Birthday

WOW, another blog post in the same day! I'm on a roll. So I created this cute cup cake card for my dad's birthday. I was trying to figure out a way to make something cute but be manly. So what better way than to use the color blue. Perfect! 

Materials:

Crumb Cake SU card stock cut to 5.5 x 4.25"

Cup Cake cut from Create A Critter at 3"

I used to hide contour feature to hide the face and I used a Peachy Keen face stamp.

The brown patterned paper is from the TPC Studio Homeroom stack and it's cut at 5.5 x 2"

Happy Birthday is from the My Pink Stamper Family & Friends stamp set (I cut the stamp in half to separate the two words). 

White pearls are from my stash.

I used a Jelly Roll black pen to doodle around the cupcake and a white Jelly Roll pen to doodle around the outer edges of the card.

Happy Scrapin :)
