Gate fold BDy card

Happy Saturday!!! I hope your day is going well. I am so happy it is a hot day so I could hide indoors and  play with paper and stamps :) For today's card I made a birthday card for a friend of my kiddos whose 9th birthday is just around the corner. I don't know what is up with my brain since once again I started with the idea of a vertical lever card or maybe another spinning card, but somehow ended up making a "gate fold" with the "peek a boo" window LOL! I gotta be careful when cooking dinner I might start with the idea of lasagna and end up with a pot roast LOL! Using Cricut's Design Space I designed the base and the elements  for the card. I could've added die-cut stars but I decided to stamp  them instead and added glossy accents to them. So, what do you think?, the critics around here ;) say there is to much white, I thinks is not, so what is your opinion? Linking to PCS Agust Callenge: Any Card  -Cutting it short b...

Spinning Sun Card, 4" Square

Hello friends! I am back with my second installment of cards for this week, today I am sharing with you a "spinning sun" card I created using Cricut Design Space, and Pretty Cute Stamps. This is a rather simple design, the card base is 4"x 12" folded trifold style. On the front of the card I diecut a 2.5 " circle and the SVG file for the Sun from PCS. The sun was cut and stamped/colored twice. I colored the sunburst pattern following the sun beams from the image using a PITT pen from Faber Casttle.

U R Amazing, A7 Card

Hello friends!  I hope your day is going well. I cannot believe August is gone!!! It seems like I just turned around and poof! it was gone ;)... Anyhow, as the children have started school, we have started with the BD party invites so in an effort to stay ahead of the game I started to create a couple of cards or children we know pretty well and have birthdays coming up within the next 2 weeks. The first one is another attempt at a " One Layer Wonder" card, these card style has given me a hard time but I am stubborn and I know I wont rest until I master the skill ;) the problem being that some how, I always begin with a very clear idea of my design and it slowly but surely morphs onto something else LOL! Here it is: I used 2 sentiments from " Sea Ya Soon" Pretty Cute Stamps set to create the " TV" announcement. I also used PPPR " Little Football" image. Basically this card was made using the masking technique, as I  inked the ...
