Day 5 & 6 - Baby Cards

I am a bit behind in posting!!

Here is what I did on Day 5 & 6. Baby Cards.
I am part of a group of ladies from the Cricut Message Board. We do an Aussie Card Swap every month. Baby cards are for one month and I am now ahead of schedule after doing these baby cards.

I saw something similar to these on the internet but can't remember who made them. Used some cuttlebug embossing folders. for the wording, I just stamping twice using two different colours (the same on the stork)

I have made 4 of each card.

Day 3 & 4 - Kaisercraft Birdhouse and Male cards

Here are my holiday projects for day 3 & 4!!

Day 3 was a Kaisercraft Birdhouse project. I am really happy with how it turned out. I have yet to put a 'saying' in the circle hole in the centre.











Day 4 was Male Birthday Cards for our Aussie Card Swap on the Cricut Message Board.
I really don't like doing male cards - they are so hard. I decided to go with something simple and I love the Diamond Plate embossing folder. It is so good for male cards. And just went with simple black and grey.

Day 1 & 2 - Flower Pot Cards and Layout

I am on holidays for 2 weeks with no plans of going anywhere. I intend to be creative and make at least one craft item every day. Yesterday I made 3 flower pot cards, and today I made 1 flower pot card and a 12x12 scrapbook layout. Here's hoping I can continue...

this is from Day 1 and Day 2











The flowers pull out of the pot to reveal the inside of the card.

Instructions for these flower pot cards are available at Splitcoaststampers website http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/flowerpotpocket/


This layout is from a scapbook challenge kit (from my LSS) comprising of 4 sheets of double sided "Prairie Lane Collection" papers from Kaisercraft,some ribbon and some brads. This is all you are allowed to use on the layout.

First Canvas Project

I had never attemped a Canvas project before. I made this one a few weeks ago and gave it to my husband for his birthday last week. The photo at the bottom is actually set in a box frame









And my daughter did this one
