How about one more birthday card. :)

Thank goodness it's almost Friday! And today I've got one more birthday card to share!

I used the Simple Stories Happy Day paper stack to create this card. There's no die cutting machines needed, just a paper trimmer. 
Supplies:
PaperTrey Ink VIntage Cream cardstock
Stampin' Up Island Indigo cardstock
Simple Stories Happy Day 6x6 paper stack
Gina K. Designs Birthday Greetings
Liz's PaperLoft Boutique hemp twine

I hope the rest of your Thursday is simply fabulous!

Happy Birthday!

Yay for Mondays!! :)
I know my blogging has been somewhat MIA lately...but I hope to be back soon!

Today, I have a super quick birthday card to share with you using some My Creative Time dies and a Gina K Designs stamp!

I made this birthday card for one of my best friends, and I just realized yesterday morning that I have yet to send it to her! Sorry Shawna! I swear the Thanksgiving holiday just snuck up on me and I totally spaced it out. I hope you get it soon!
See this SUPER perfect Stitched XL Label die?! It's a new die offered by Miss Emma over at My Creative Time! It fits perfectly inside the xl label die and is most definitely a must have! And these little flags are from a new die set from My Creative Time called Vintage Stitched Label dies.
Supplies:
PaperTrey Ink Vintage Cream and Kraft cardstock
Stampin' Up Early Espresso cardstock
Studio Calico Classic Calico Collection Vol. 2 6x6 paper stack
My Creative Time XL Label die
My Creative Time Stitched XL Label die
My Creative Time Vintage Stitched Label dies
Gina K Designs Birthday Greetings
Liz's PaperLoft Boutique hemp twine

Have a great Monday!
And HAPPY BIRTHDAY Shawna!! I hope your day is just fabulous!

Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons :: Let's get stuffed!

Good morning and Happy Wednesday! Can you believe that Thanksgiving is tomorrow?! This year has just flown by for me. Before I know it, it'll be Christmas!

Today I'm sharing another Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons DT post! 
If you haven't already, you've got to check out all the super cute new cut files that Lisa has available! And don't forget the digi papers too!

For my project, I decided to use the Thanksgiving Feast cut files. With this latest release Lisa included a print and cut face if we wanted to use it. I have to say...using the print and cut face was PERFECT! Those little facial features can be a bugger if you have to cut them small enough for your image to go on a standard sized card. :)  

So I used the print and cut feature to print the face and the body, so that the skin tones would match. I also decided to print and cut the turkey. :) 
 The background shape is a label shape from the Silhouette Online store. I created a shadow by using the offset feature. The corner pieces are from an old Stampin' Up punch.
Supplies:
PaperTrey Ink Black, White, and Pure Poppy cardstock
Core'dinations
American Craft white textured cardstock (print and cut)
My Mind's Eye Lavender 6x6 paper stack
Echo Park Happy Days 6x6 paper stack
Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbon Thanksgiving Feast cut files
My Creative Time Mixed Holiday Sentiments
iRock and black gems

It might be wise of you all to check out Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons this Friday too. ;) Just sayin'!

Oh and you also might want to take advantage of a sale going on over at My Creative Time this Friday!
I've also heard there will be a blog hop and prizes...and those prizes are guaranteed to be fabulous. My Creative Time stamps and sentiments go PERFECTLY with the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons cut files!

I hope you all have a fabulous day! And if you are traveling for the big day tomorrow, stay safe!
