Day 5 of 100 Day Blog Challenge - Strawberry Basket Box Card

Here is a Strawberry basket box card that I made for my Mom
 using a file from the Awesome SVG Cuts.  The paper I used 
 for this project were from some of my favorite paper companies... 
Cosmo Cricket, October Afternoon, and Crate Paper.

Day 4 of 100 Day Blog Challenge - Orange Gift Box

Yay! It's the weekend! 

Today I'd like to share a project I made for a dear friend who recently turned 91 years old.  She is amazing! One of the sweetest ladies I know.  

To create this box, I used the Orange Trio svg file set from My Scrap Chick.  I used my Cuttlebug to emboss the wood grain onto the box strips and for the background of the large 100% Naturally Sweet tag.  To attach the box together, not only did I use Scotch glue but I also added bronze metallic brads on each of the corners.  To make the lettering pop, I added stickles.  Then to finish off the project, I added a green and white twine bow to the orange stem and thick brown twine and a small green button to the box.  Once the stickles were completely dry, I tossed in several small oranges! She and her husband both loved it!

Day 2 of 100 Day Blog Challenge - Get Well Easel Card

Good Morning!

Today is day 2 of the 100 Day blog challenge and I would
like to share a Get Well easel card that I made for an uncle
of mine who was recently in the hospital for a heart attack.

The cutting file came from the Healing Heart Trio over at My Scrap Chick.
I
used mostly solid colored cardstock except the striped background paper
and it came from DCWV.  I also took a short cut and added a real tiny
band-aid over the larger heart instead of paper piecing one together.

Day 1 of 100 Day Blog Challenge - Graphic 45 Thank You Card

Good Morning!

I have decided to attempt a challenge... to post daily for the next 100 days.
For those of you wondering, yes, that would be on Christmas day! 
Not sure if I am going to be able to do it, but its worth a try! 
So here goes!

Today, I am posting a Thank You card I created using Graphic 45's
Secret Garden paper.  I also added some bling to the flowers
and a teeny tiny bow atop the bird cage. I decorated the inside
as well but forgot to take a pic of it before giving the card away.
 
Ooops!

Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons Design Team Call

Good Morning!
It's been awhile since I have been on a design team, so I thought I would
try out for the Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons Design team call.  Lisa 
offers super cute cutting files, digi clipart, digi paper, and digi stamps.

Here are a couple of projects I have created using PPPR cutting files
and digi clipart.
Keep your fingers crossed for me! 



I had a lot of fun with this particular card.  I used Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons
Silly Little Elf SVG file set to create the step card and added stickles to the
ornaments and some white flock on the Elfs hat, collar, and gloves.
My nephews love that mischievous little guy!  Its been a
family tradition at Christmas for several years now.
So, I'm sure they will love this card.
    
   

Box cards are really popular right now.  So, when I saw Lisa's
Dr. Who Digi clipart, I knew I had to create a box card
for my little cousin who loves the show. 

I'm almost finished with my Halloween Ferris Wheel
(the ferris wheel from SvgCuts.com)  Just have to add
some finishing touches and I'll post pics of it tomorrow.

Don't forget to check out Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons
for some super cute cutting files and digital goodies.

80s Thank You Box Cards

First of all, I'm posting this on my phone (which is a first for me).  
It's  a bit more challenging typing everything up on this little phone so please bear with me.

Wow!!  Time surely flies... Its been forever since Kitty or I have posted here.  
As my favorite time of year approaches, I'll definitely be posting more of my projects.  
I love Fall & Halloween.  

SVG Cuts has some super cute Fall box card files that are about to be released... 
Those are on my to do list, for sure.  In the meantime, here are some 80s Thank You 
box cards that I created for family and friends who threw an EARLY "Surprise" 
birthday party for me back in May.  My Birthday is not until October. Lol!!

Anyway, to go along with the 80s theme of the party, I chose to make some fun 
rubix cube box cards.  The files are from Miss Kate's Cuttables.www.misskatecuttables.com
