Triangle Tri-fold Card & Throwback Thursday

Hey Everyone!

So I found card style that is new to me and had to play around with it! It's called a Triangle Tri-fold card and I think they are soo neat! I'm also super excited that I get to participate in my first "Throwback Thursday" challenge hosted by Emma over at My Creative Time! Every Thursday Emma hosts this challenge, typically she picks an "older" cartridge for everyone to use, this week though she decided to let everyone choose their own cartridge to use! I decided to use Home Accents because (shhhh, dont tell) I've had it for a while and have maybe used it once or twice. So, without further ado, here is my card!















To make this type of card you simple take a 4"x12" piece of cardstock, score at 4" and 8", then (in the same direction) score the 2 flaps diagonally. So super simple!! I then too a 3 3/4" square and cut in diagonally for the layer on top!















Both stamps are from My Pink Stamper Everday Occassions stamp set!
















The butterfly is cut at 3 1/4" from Home Accents, both the blackout and standard features, then I added some stickles to the cutout part!  Patterned paper is from a DCWV Cafe Mediterranean stack.

Hope you like it!

Bridesmaid/Parents Thank You Cards

Hello Everyone!

Sorry its been SOOO long since I have blogged, but I am getting married 1 WEEK from today!!! So I have been very busy. My Cricut was steaming the other night as I made 10 cards (some duplicates tho, but still). I wanted to share those cards with you. I decided to make special Thank You and Celebrate cards for my bridesmaids, our parents, and I made a surprise card for my groom which I am going to give to the photographer to give to him before the wedding!!  So here they are! I LOVE how they all turned out!!

This one is for my bridesmaids. 3 of the 4 of them scrapbook and I bought them the Forever Young Cricut Cartridge, so I wanted to use it on their card! The ladies are cut at 4", I added some stickles to their hair and shoes. I used my D'Vine swirls Cuttlebug folder on the background and the pink dress.


This one is for our parents. I used the Wedding Solutions Cartridge. The couple is cut at 4 1/4", then I added some bling to the back of the brides dress. Her veil is cut from DCWV Glitter paper.

This one is for my Groom!!  I also used the Wedding solutions folder for the tux and flower. The flower is cut at 1" and the tux is cut at I believe 4." The groom stamp is from a wedding set that I have, For My is my handwriting.

This is for my flowergirl. I got the little basket from Wedding solutions. She loves the Cricut, so I had to make her a card with it. Again, the flower basket was cut at 4" and I added some stickles to the flowers!

I used my FAVORITE My Pink Stamper stamp sets on all of these cards.

I hope you like them all!! I absolutely LOVE how they all turned out! Especially because I wasn't feeling very crafty the day I made these all, but I had to do it then.

It's a busy busy week. Only 5 more days until the wedding!!  We return from our honeymoon on the 22nd, so I won't be having any posts until after that sometime. We are also moving in early July, so Its going to be a crazy busy time for a while! I will have lots of catching up to do with looking at all my blogs!!!

Have a great couple of Weeks!!

Get Well Card using Wild Card Cricut Cartridge

I made this card for my grandpa when he has his hip replacement last month. I just love Wild Card, it takes the work out of making cards.


I added some Crystal Stickles to the letters and the spots in the bandaid.



Thanks for looking!

1st Birthday Card

I made this card for my nephew Ethyn's 1st birthday. This was a quick card, I actually borrowed one of his mom's cartridges for this one while I was watching him  =P That boy loved watching the Cricut go!!


The party hat was cut from Cuttin Up. The letters at 1 are from Don Juan. I just love the Don Juan font!  I added some stickles to the hat, it just needed something!



I normally don't do much with the inside of my cards (shame on me) but I just had to on this one. I thought it made the card so much better. This cut is also from Don Juan. Enjoy!

Gumball Machine Valentine's Day Card

This card I made for one of my Nursing School classmates' 7 year old son. They were having mystery Valentine's day mail, so I wanted to send him a card. I LOVE how this card turned out. I had no idea what to make for a little boy, but as soon as I saw this gumball machine I knew! 


The gumball machine was cut from Sweethearts. I ran the red background through the Cuttlebug using the Spots & Dots embossing folder. The ribbon and stamp have both been in my stash for a while, not sure where they came from! I used Black Diamond Stickles on the machine and Crystal stickles on the gumballs.



I used some Pop Dots on the gumball machine and sentiment for some added dimension.  Did I mention how much I love this card? Hope you do too!
