Jacob's 2nd bd card

Hi all, I am really early with Jacob's card, he turns 2 in January. He loves train and planes, dump trucks and other ground vehicles. so he is getting a little of what is liked.
This is a large 5 1/2 x  25 1/2 inch card, it folds up to 5 1/2 by 8 1/2. The paper was a great addition and background for this card, the  playtime stack from DCWV

last Christmas card, I hope!

hello again, this started out a birthday card, but was a bit to Christmas for me.


campin' critters

hello to all,  this  cute moose has the right idea with the weather we are having, cold and lots of snow. Not as much as the north-east though. I did cut out the shadow, but it took away from the look I was going for so I popped it up on foam tape, looks like he is gliding on the snow. It will be going to a nephew next month.
I added a slight smile with a pen to him and white dots in the eyes.

Kyle's turning 11

good morning to all,  what a crazy snowy day it is today,
This was a fun card to make for my grandson,  it is a large 8 x 5 1/2 inch card made from Mini monsters, I also added the batman buckle made from George and paper doll dress up. He is still in the batman stage and I am thinking he will love this. It was quick and easy to make.

made 3 more with Christmas

I think I must be close to done with my Christmas card, now just have to address them and send them out.


my first box card

this was not an easy card to take a picture of.

BBTB2 anything goes

hello to all,  I saw this card on pinterest and had to try it with my cricut, ( Kris McIntosh from stampingwithkris) used a template. I used wedding solutions, George, and my design studio. I was happy the way it turned out,   I need to make more shaped cards. My girlfriend will love to get this on her birthday. I also added a gem that was in my stash.

for Heather

good morning once again,  this one is for my niece who loves horses.

Made with stampin' up "hardwood"

good morning to all, snowing like crazy around in central WI. I am not ready for it at all, but Mother Nature didn't ask me what I thought of it.
 I am really excited the way this turned out!  I wanted the planks to go up and down but I wanted to have a landscape card.  stamped 2 backgrounds and cut each plank, inked cut them down to make it look like the side of a barn and took a pen for the nail heads. The Pumpkins because Alex has grown pumpkins over the years for sale. I also found a challenge from bitten by the bug 2 "fall pumpkins"
                                    pumpkins cut at 3 1/2 from pooh and friends
                               yes, I added nail heads to the inside
                               background is 6 x 41/4

more cards to post.


 I ordered this background stamp from my sisters stampin up dealer, she had it wrapped up for my birthday present, what a surprise, I never gave it a second thought (thinking it was a book) I was totally surprised and everyone around could tell.

 love this!!! I have wanted the Christmas cartridge for a long time, but it was retired, so when I bought my Cricut Expression there was a $50. coupon for digital cartridges that can be used in the cricut craft room.  so I bought it and enjoying this cartridge..

Mojo Monday 370 Contest

hello to all,  this is for daughter who will be 37 next week, good thing I have a calendar on my comp. that updates every year, I would not have had her at that age.... Where did the time go? 37? and I have one older, she will be 39 in Jan.
I had a lot of fun making this card, it has so many layers and shapes.
