2025 - November - December

I used Stampin Up Stamp - Catching Butterflies to create this card for a great-great niece.  The inside sentiment is Penny Lane stamps.

I created this card for great niece using Stampin Up Barn Door stamp set and Dies. Inside sentiments are Penny Lane stamps.

This card is for our granddaughter using an embossing folder and balloon dies I've had for a very long time which I also ran through an embossing folder.  The cat is cut out from Design Space using my Cricut and the party hat is punch.  The inside sentiment I upload from the internet and print then cut.

I made this money roll box for our granddaughter, once the sting is removed she will pull on the red bow and the bills come out.  I found the cut file in Design Space.

I used a cut file from Simply Crafts to make this birthday card for my brother-in-law who has a pontoon.  I found the birthday saying on the internet and add it using print then cut.

I found this Christmas money envelope to create this holder for our niece and nephew.

I made 14 of these Hershey Kiss holder (holds 6 and money).  I printed the labels on the bottom and cut with my Cricut.

For my brother and sister-in-law's anniversary, I found this card design in Cricut Design Space which also included using the pen to write the words on the front.  I used a gold ink pen and backed the open cut with glitter gold card stock.  The inside sentiment I found on the internet and punched out the gold hearts with punch.

 

Annually I do floating ornaments as Christmas - these are this years'. This first one is a memorial ornament that I made for each of her kids.  The second one is for a co-work who I made one for his son last year and felt his daughter needed one too.

I failed to get photos of these ornaments before I boxed them up to gift.  This shows what they look like in Cricut Design Space prior to print then cut on transparency sheets.

These two ornaments were purchased but I sized the photos in Cricut Design Space to fit and then did print then cut.

2025 - September - October

 I lost a dear friend and co-worker to oral cancer and made this card in Cricut Design Space.  I used the print then cut for the inside.

I made this card that I took inspiration from one I found online for our nephew's birthday.

I designed this card with inspiration from one I saw in a store for our Niece.  The writing on the front and inside is the pen feature on the Cricut.

I designed this card for our great-great nephew who unfortunately I don't know what he likes these days.  I used Paper Doll cartridge.  I found inspiration for the inside by searching the web.

I made this waterfall card for a great-great niece.  It is the first one I've ever made, it was such fun to design and assemble.

Our daughter and family are moving to another state.  I made this box card to celebrate their move.  Card design is Lori Whitlock svg files. I added the back piece and sentiment.

Also made New Home cards for grandkids to gift them cash to spend.  All was designed in Cricut Design Space, some print then cut with added touches of Wink of Stella. Granddaughter loves her cat so I had to include on her card.

Grandson loves to play video games so a card that I took inspiration from was perfect.  I uploaded a photo of their new home instead of the one that was suggested.

Last year I bought a Stampin Up - Paper Pumpkin kit - Nests of Christmas (October 2024) that makes six cards if you follow the kit instructions.  I watched video by Rachel Tessman and was able to get 30 cards out of the kit.  I love how they turned out.

I designed this card for our great-great nephew who is turning 7.  I had purchased a book with his name on it and the cover had a squirrel that inspired the idea for the card.  The stamps are Fluffy Squirrel set from Stampin Up.  I found the inside sentiment on line.

My hubby and I are celebrating our 41st wedding anniversary.  I found a similar card for inspiration and used images in Design Space.  I added another verse to the left inside of card that is just between us.

I liked the card I made my hubby so much I altered it for my Sister and her husband's anniversary that is a day after ours.

I designed this card for our great-great niece who is turning 9 and is a dancer.  The girl is from Paper Doll Cricut cartridge.

Great-great niece turns 1, I saw a similar card on Pinterest and used Design Space to create this shape card.  Minnie is from Disney and Friends Cricut Cartridge.  Words on front of card are written with Cricut with both glitter pens and repeated with Crayola Marker.  I added pink Stickles on cake and Wink of Stella on shoes, bow and dots in eyes.

I created Dad and Mom sympathy cards to have on hand for when needed.  Found inspiration for both cards within Cricut Design Space projects.  Added my own touch.  The paper on the dad card is SU.
