Little Yeti

How about a cute card for a winter birthday?


The card is 5 1/2"x4 1/4" and made of white card stock.  I used a metal die from Jaded Blossom for the snowflake mat and the blue patterned mat.



The little Yeti is a cut file from Lettering Delights.  I used a stamp from Peachy Keen for the face.  I added glossy accents to the eyes of the kid and also on the teeth of the monster costume.


The icicle border and the sentiment are also from Jaded Blossom.  The icicles are a metal die.  I covered them with glossy accents and also sprinkled a little glitter on them so they would sparkle.  I finished off the card with some purple gems.

Narly

I just had to craft the other day and made this fun birthday card!


The card is 5 1/2"x4 1/4" and made of white card stock.  The plaid mat is cut with a metal die from Jaded Blossom and I matted it with a dark blue card stock that is 1/8" larger.


The wave pieces were also cut with a metal die from Jaded Blossom.  I adhered one of the sets of waves with foam tape.  I also used Stickles on the wave crests for some shimmer.


The narwhal is from Lettering Delights.  I used a stamp from Peachy Keen for the face, then covered the eyes with glossy accents.


The sentiment is also from Jaded Blossom.  I finished off the card with a bunch of sequins.

On Fire!

Here is a fun birthday card for someone who loves dragons!



It is a z-fold card made from white card stock.  I then layered the card with black and flame card stock.



The dragon is from SVG Cutting Files, but it was from a past blog hop and is no longer available.  I covered his eyes, claws, and tail spikes with glossy accents.  His wings are covered in crackle accents and his orange horns on his head are covered in Stickles.  I also used some Distress Ink around the edges of the grey for added depth.  His head is adhered with foam tape for dimension.


The sentiments are stamped.  The one in the bottom corner is from My Favorite Things and the one in the mat is from Jaded Blossom.  I also used a metal die from Jaded Blossom for the white mat.  I finished off the card with some sequins.

Alma's Name Sign

My step-sister gave birth to a little girl 6 weeks after I had my son.  She and her husband did her nursery in a woodland theme.  I made this name sign for her to go with that theme.


The background of this scene was made with five different colors of Distress Ink.


The deer and trees are images that I converted to cut files using the Design Space software.  The buck and doe are both covered with some Wink of Stella for a subtle shimmer.  The fawn is covered in glitter and glossy accents.  It is also adhered with foam tape.


Her name is cut with the "Animal Antics" Cricut cartridge.  I covered the pink layer with glitter and glossy accents to match the fawn.
