2025 March - April

I created this card with inspiration from Karen Titus from Stamping on the Back Porch.  All is done in Cricut Design Space.  Sentiment is written with the pen option.  The base of the card is from Elegant Edges cartridge and the princess bear is from Teddy Bear Parade cartridge.

I created this card for one of our great nephews turning 19, all done in Cricut Design Space. Inside is a print then cut.

I love making card with Dreaming Tree files.  This is from Tiny Tots - Lion.  I struggled a bit on this one and it has a flaw but I'm sure my great-great nephew that I created it for won't mind.

Great nephew is a hockey player so I designed this card for his birthday with inspiration I saw on a Kokorosastudio Facebook post.  I found images on line, uploaded into Cricut Design Space and did print then cut.  I used clear embossing powder, and heat set on the front background ice to make it shine like ice.  A touch of Wink of Stella on the red light to add a little glitter.

Our daughter and son-in-law will be celebrating their 17th wedding anniversary at Disney World this year, so I designed this card using Mickey and Friends Cricut cartridge and Design Space to create this card.  Inside I used pen in Cricut.  Will put cash in the pocket inside.

While I made this card for a great nephew turning two in March, I have another great nephew turning 2 in April so I made two of these cards that were created in Design Space.  I found two sets of  CAT toy front loaders for them to go along with.

I like to send St. Patrick's Day cards to special people in my life and created these three using a die set I got from Deb's Deal who I follow on Facebook - Top of the Morning to you! I didn't use the two beer mugs and replaced them with the "LUCK" banner I created in Design Space.  The insides are print then cut using uploaded ideas I got on the web.  I brought the papers at Hobby Lobby.

Brother in law is having surgery, I found this image on line and uploaded it to create this card.  I used print then cut feature, popped up the "in need of repair vehicle".  The car on the inside is from Stampin Up Racing By stamp set that I uploaded onto the computer, adjusted the color to attempt to match the vehicle on the front and added as a print then cut.

I bought this card (Hallmark) that I really liked.  Keeping with my handmade card tradition I then copied the front to use as background and fussy cut out the of the actual card face elements.  I colored the edges of the cut out to match the image so that the white edges didn't show and put back on card, some are raised on foam dimensionals.  I also cut out around the words and raised them up.  For inside I used Stampin Up dies to cut out the sentiment.
