Happy A Super Scrappy Day,

Goovy

I was online last week shopping on Joann.com and came accross some new DCWV Paper and Matstacks. Of course I had to buy them!! The matstack I am showing today is called Hippie Chic. I love this paper! It goes so perfectly with Cricut's new cartridge Groovy Times.

This is a super simple card but I love how it came out.

Luau Birthday Invitation

My youngest daughter turns 7 in December. I can not believe that 7 years has gone by so fast. She was almost a Christmas baby and so for her birthday this year she got pretty creative. This year we are going to have a Luau!! I have been struggling with an invitation. I always go pretty elaborate on creating invitations but there is so much I want to make for the actual party that I wanted to go simple but still have a cute invitation. I was searching around on the Internet and saw a grass skirt invitation. It was super cute, simple and I had everything I needed to create it.

The inside of the card says

"Grab your grass skirt or
Hawaiian shirt and head to...
Madison's Birthday Cabana"

Stay tuned for tomorrow!! It will be time for another fun Halloween project!!

Hand-stamped Roller Skate Invitations

Sorry I have been MIA for the past few days, I have been working on a customer order of roller skate Invitations. These are different from my other ones. The roller skate is a stamp instead of a paper piecing. Making this invitation a little less expensive than the paper pieced one. If you need some of these cute invitations for your next party please feel free to contact me or view my Etsy store.

Mushroom Birthday Card

My middle daughter has a birthday party to go to later today and the Birthday Girl loves Tinker Bell. I decided to do a card with the mushroom from the Tinker Bell cartridge. Tinker Bell has lots of layers and I am short on time. The present is wrap in Tinker Bell wrapping paper and I made the card to match.

RIP ~ 40th Birthday Card

My husband's buddy is having a party for his 40th Birthday. Of course I had to make him a card and it had to be manly and funny. I am not the best at making manly cards. I love pink, flowers, and lots of glitter. All of which is not manly. I recently bought the Mini Monsters Cricut Cartridge and saw that it had a tombstone card. What a perfect card for someone turning 40! I did end up adding a little bling to the card but it still looks masculine.

(had to hold the card becuase of the wind)

Yeehaw! Card

This was the card I submitted to My Pink Stamper for her summer design team. Unfortunately my card was not chosen but I am now able to show it to you. This was created with some leftover scraps from the "Howdy" layout I did last week. I thought this came out just adorable! It's even more adorable in person.

Baby Skunk Cards

I received a custom order yesterday to create two Skunk cards for a customer's sister who is having twins. They do not know if they are boy's or girl's so I had to keep the cards gender neutral. I thought these came out super cute and she loves them too!

Baby Girl Onesie Card

My Mom and my youngest daughter are heading off to a Baby Shower today and I promised I would make a card for the shower. I have been wanting to do a onesie card for quite sometime but never had a reason to until now.

I first created this card in my Gypsy using New Arrival for the onesie and Create-a-Critter for the cute little dear. I welded two shadows of the onesie (5.5") together and cut a third onesie out in pattern paper to layer on top. The dear is cut out at 2.58" using three different shades of brown cardstock and then layered together. I think it turned out so cute! I just love that little dear!!
