Gift Card Holders

My Stampin Up Stamp and Create Club meets tomorrow. At each months meeting we have a card swap. This is what I came up with...

It is amazing how just adding lines and dots change the flower.

I think the google eyes make the flowers even cuter!

Open view...

I think they turned out super cute and I hope the ladies love them.

Here is the link for the card base template. http://blog.ginakdesigns.com/2008/11/10/preview-day-1.aspx

Card pack.

I wanted to make something for my hair dresser. I put 4 different cards in the bag and made a cute topper for it. She loved it!


I used the Create A Critter cartridge. I cut the penguin at 3in. Instead of cutting the scarft I decided to use this super soft yarn I found at the Dollar Tree several months ago. I really like using the oversized googly eyes on these cute critters.

Goody Bags for Christmas

I had a goody bag order to fill. They all have a big tootsie roll, 100 grand bar and a gift card. The reindeer and snowmen bags have the $10 gift cards and the cutsie penquins have the $50 gift cards.


The reindeer is from the Gypsy Wanderings cartridge that came on the Gypsy.

The snowmen are from the Hello Kitty Greetings cartridge cut at 3-1/4.

The penguin is from my favorite cartridge Create A Critter.

Mini M&M Goodie Bags

A friend is starting a stamp club that starts next week. Each month one lady will show how to do a little project. I get to show the first project. It will be little goodie bags like the prior post. They will get to choose from a bumble bee or a lady bug.

.

I wanted to make little goodie bags to hand out to the ladies attending that evening and this is what I came up with.

Goodie Bag

I made some goodies for my sister for her birthday. Which was last month so I am a little late!! It has two beaded bracelets and a sun catcher she can hang in her car. Unfortunatly I have misplaced my camera but once I find it I will post the pictures. This one was taken with my cell phone so it isn't the best. I love the huge googly eyes. I was going to use smaller ones but I just loved the big ones.



I used my favorite cartridge...Create-a-Critter! I cut the little bumble bee at 4".
.
The paper size is 4.25" by I think 5".

Martha Stewart punch around the page - scallops.

Create A Critter Monkey

This evening I went to Cricut Club at Craft Warehouse. It was about layering and they used CREATE-A-CRITTER!! LOVE LOVE LOVE this cart!!!! I have had it for a week but hadn't gotten a chance to use it yet. After tonight's club meeting I HAD to make SOMETHING!

I decided to make a card for my niece. Her favorite color is BLUE and she collects MONKIES so I thought she would really like this.
