Cards I Have Made in the Past Couple of Months

Last week one of my granddaughters celebrated her 9th birthday. It was fun making this card for her and seeing her joy when she opened the envelope.

This card was designed using the Provocraft Gypsy. The little girl shape is from the A Child's Year cartridge. I took one of the shapes and flipped it than welded the two shapes togethter to form a shape card using the Gypsy. Than I welded the number nine from the Birthday Cakes cartridge to the cupcake. The Happy Birthday with balloons is also from the Birthday Cakes cartridge.

Car Birthday Card

One of my grandsons will become 8 years old on Thursday. Ever since he was a wee little boy you could always find him with a hand full of matchbox cars wherever he went. So I decided to make him a car card for his birthday. The card was designed using the Gypsy and cut using the Cricut Expression.
