This card may not look like it, but it is an A2 size card. I cut a half circle out in the center with an exacto knife and then folded it in half to get it this way. The sentiment is from the computer.

Sky card

An A2 size card all the sentiments are from the computer. The squares were cut from GBS, the curtain was then hand cut. The scalloped square and the sun were cut from AE. The small sentiment circle is a punch. This set of cards was from a class by Sue Neal, she is awesome and has the cutest ideas. You can order from her online.

Love you much card

This card was made with the Paisley cartridge page 39, it was one I was playing with for the MAG challenge. I cut it at 4.25", I welded the base together in my gypsy then cut all the other parts, the red top is popped up. The edges are inked. The flower is a punch I had the leaves were hand cut. The button and stamp are from SU.

MAG guest designer

I was so excited when the girls from MAG Challenge by the Page asked me to be a guest designer for them, truth be told I was also nervous! I was given the Paisley cartridge page 39 to use for my projects. I found this to be a little challenging (hence the word challenge!) the images just didn't seem that fun. Well here is what I came up with I hope you like them.

First project:

Box cut at 9.5” from wrap it up from craft card stock

Background from lacy labels from bo bunny

paper Heart cut at 3” from Paisley

bo bunny paper

Flowers die scrap paper

The pink heart is popped up and is textured with dots. I did some stitching around the box and the heart. The flowers have stickles in the center and the leaves were hand cut. I stuffed the box with crinkle paper and tied the bow with ribbon from Wal-Mart.

Second project:An A2 size card some of the papers are bo bunny I don’t know where the others are from. The mushroom was cut at 3”, the top layer was cut 2 times so it could be popped up. The yellow squiggle line has glossy accents on it. All the edges are inked with brown ink. The ribbon, stamp and punches are from stampin up.

Third project: I took the shadow of the mushroom (4.5”) and welded them together to make the card base. I then cut out the layers of the mushroom at the same size, I cut multiple layers ( the stem 2 times, the top 3 times) so I could pop them up. The bee was on the paper I punched around it and then stamped the sentiment and attached with a brad. The punches are from stampin up, the paper is Basic Grey.

4th of July card

This is the same card as below, I just added a button so it would quailify for the challenge at Whimisical Wednesday #12. I don't know why I could not get this picture any better I took a ton, and this was the best.
I cut this all out of the Independence Day cartridge. The flag was cut at 3.5" and the saying was cut at 3". The paper is all american crafts except for the speckled white, I don't know where that is from. The ribbon is from stampin up. This is for Cricut Cardz Challenge # 80.

Happy day card

This card was so easy to make, my favorite kind! The tree is cut from Just because cards, the hills were hand cut. The sentiment is from the computer and hand cut. The brown hill is pop dotted up then the green hill is double pop dotted up so is the top of the tree. The banner has a pop dot on the tail.
