Oh, HAPPY day!

Hello crafty friends! I'm so happy to be back in my craft room today to share this card with you! The kids are back in school woo hoo!! I do start back to work next week and I am so looking forward to getting back on schedule. This summer has been BUSY! I have decided to finish projects that I have started and go through and use my stuff instead of buying more, (well at least I am trying to curb my spending,haha) To get things going, here is the first thing I made....

I colored up these cutie pie bears with Copics a while back from Gerda Steiner Designs and wanted to get them on a birthday card to start replenishing my stash. I used distress inks to color in the scalloped circle. This paper is from DCWV paper stack and I think I've had it for over 10 years LOL!

The dies are from My favorite Things and Gina Marie Designs. I spashed some pink sequins from my stash to help make things sparkle. The sentiments are from My Craft Spot stamps which closed down a while back.

I border punched the inside pink layer and used the Mama Elephant pop up dies to add my second bear. This added the right amount of cuteness as you open up the card.

Thanks so much for hoppin by! I hope you have a blessed day!

My Mr.Incredible Birthday Card

Hello and happy weekend! Yesterday we celebrated my hubbies birthday. He has been doing an amazing job with his fitness routine. He says he's feeling better and more fit than ever before. I wanted to make him a card and birthday theme to represent his hard work. Here's my project!

We are huge Disney fans in my house and I thought what would be

better for hubby than Mr.Incredible!

I used my Cricut Disney's Best of Pixar and the CTMH Artiste cartridges. I made a large Card in the box and of course cut out Mr.Incredible as the main feature. The starbursts and words "pow" and "zap" are all cut from Best of Pixar as well as the "i" symbol. The gable box is from Artiste.

The sparkly gold star cardstock is from the DCWV Edumacation stack. The black and gray cardstock is from a Darice Black and White paper pack. I used Creative Memories mini alphabet stickers for the title.

The stamps are from My Craft Spot "Build a Birthday." I LOVE this stamp set! So many possibilities! I then added some black rhinestones to give it a little extra but not too much bling. Masculine cards are extra challenging because you can't put too many embellishments or you risk making it too feminine.

The gable box was cut at fit to page to be as large as I could make it. I added some Wink of Stella clear pen to the icon to give it an extra shimmer. I filled the boxes with candy to give to my hubby and kids. They were a hit!
