5 Quick & Cute Cards

I've finally got my card crafting mojo back! Yay! I love doing cards. They are quick and can satisfy your crafty cravings. And with 2 little boys running around, I need something that I can do quickly, because sure enough...there WILL be an interruption.

Mom, I'm hungry!

Mom, come look at this!

Mom, Brett has a poopy diaper! (lol)

or the baby is crying because he bumped his head (trying to learn to walk)

Ok, on to card #1, I made this one using a free file from SVGcuts blog, which you can snag here. I love all the juicy layers to this svg. It is 4 layers deep! Stunning in person and yet so simple!

This card, I can't take the credit for, I found it in a stash of old scrapbooking goodies that belonged to my aunt, someone did an excellent job on it, so I tore out the inside and recycled it (i do this a lot). I really hope that the people who recieve my cards do this as well, that way the love that went into it can be appreciated by more than one person. The only thing I added to this card are the jewels in the center of the flowers.

It looks to me like it was created using simple scallops that were cut to look like flower petals (brilliant!).

I forget where this adorable little girl is from, but I just love her! I added some stickles to her hairbow. 

This is another card created using a free file from SVGcuts blog. You can get it here. I love how cleanly their images cut and how easy they are to assemble!

And lastly, this one was created using a new file that i just made. You can get it free here.

It has 3 layers. I added a little flower at the bottom, with a button and then a rhinestone on top.

Simple, yet elegant.

A couple of cute cards...

This was a quick and easy card that I made for my SIL for her bday. I used Kate's Silhouette's from SVGCUTS.com

This little card is for my MIL I just love the little seal!

A Wedding Card

A friend of mine is getting married in a few days and I made this card for her. I am not totally pleased with the way it turned out, but some cards are just that way. I used the svg files from SVGCuts called Kate's Silhouettes.

I used this sketch from Cute Card Thursday.

Our Family

Well today was a dreary day in Kentucky. It was overcast and about 40 degrees, but slushy snow still remains everywhere. So needless to say, we all stayed indoors today. I decided to play with my cricut and do something crafty.

First of all, I cut this beautiful tree for the project below but did it too large, so then I decided to use it on a scrapbook page! I had this 5x7 photo from a while back when our son was just a year old or so. The tree is a freebie that can be found at Blu Mama's blog. The title "our family" is part of free collection that can be found at SVGCuts.com



Here is another scrapbook type project that I did. It is inside of a clear plastic frame that has large magnets on the back to place on your refridgerator. Once again, the title is a part of a free collection at svgcuts.com. The tree is a freebie from FreeSVGs.com. The word art in the circle is from ElegantWordArt by Bethany. I plan to sell this one in my craft booth.

BIG NEWS & a Valentine's Card

It's so nice to get back in the swing of things after the holidays. I'm having a lot of fun preparing for Valentine's Day. I didn't start making cards until after Valentine's last year, so this is the first time I've ever tried them. I'm lovin' it!

Of course, it is so easy with Lindsay's cute little digi stamps. It didn't take me long at all to make this card, I saw these cute little birdies from the Love Grows Here Set and knew exactly what I wanted to do with them! The cute little Lover's Lace across the top of the card is an svg freebie from SVGCuts.com. You can find it here.

Also today and tomorrow everything at MyGrafico is 25% off!

The sketch is from 2 Sketches 4 you.

And now for the BIG NEWS and your Thursday freebie! Yep, you guessed it!

I'm pregnant!!!

Enjoy this cute little stork and baby!

Don't forget to stop by Lindsay's blog for a freebie and to check out the rest of the DT's work!

A Quick Sympathy Card

I don't know if I've ever mentioned it or not, but I'm in charge of our church's flower fund. So when a family member of someone in our congregation passes away, I'm in charge of sending a card and some sort of plant or food or what have you. So here is a quick little sympathy card that I whipped up tonight.

The senitment was acutally printed using my computer. I just measured a rectangle the size of my card (before folding it) then I made my sentiment and positioned it where I wanted it on the card. Then before printing, I deleted the rectangle that I used as my card template. Just like stamping!

The next thing I did was use the tulips freebie from SVGCuts. It took just minutes to cut and glue together. Then all I had to do was assemble the card.
