Theo's Story 3

You may recall me telling you about the Toy Story cartridge I was playing with at

Cardinal Colours February crop.

This is the card I was making with te Characters.

Kerry had asked for the following on a card saying Theo's Story 3 instead of Toy.

She chose Buzz and Woody from a selection on the cartridge and I set to work.

The font is Mickey Mouse and I cut the banner by hand (also the apostophe as there isn't one on the cartridge??)

The card is A5 white layered with blue - the yellow is the envelope I added.

Inside she had requested this picture which hailed the release of the new film

so I had to adapt the text areas to read Happy Birthday and the date.

She also asked me to change the name on the boot :)

Kerry will have left work by now, so, Good Luck in your new job and do keep in touch :)

Monkey Business

Just for fun.

I was asked by a colleague at work to personalise the following card.

She had purchased it from WHS and wanted it as a Valentine(ish) card for a friend who calls her Monkey.

I cut the letters with the Zooballoo Cricut Cartridge in red, shadowed with gold, using a heart for the "O".

I then added glossy accents to the letters and some Crystal Stickles to the heart.

Apologies for the photo but I forgot to take a photo before putting it back in the wrapper :(

A twisted easel card

I saw one of these on the TV (can't remember where) and thought I would have a go.

Sian at work had asked me to make a card for her friend Louise who loves Tigers so I found this Le Suh decoupage sheet in my stash.

The base card is a CWC 6x6", the papers from a selection which I shared with Lynn a while back.

I cut the title with the Zooballoo Cricut cartridge in cream shadowed in gold.

In the Zoo?

Claire asked me to make a card for Ben who will be 1 today.

She asked for something vibrant with lots of animals and a photograph.

We came up with the idea of putting Ben in the Zoo and this is what I made.

I used a CWC 8x8 card and cut an aperture in the front.

I used papers from the Prima So Cute range from Cardinal Colours to cover the front and added a frame from the Pooh & Friends Cricut cartridge.

I created some "wooden" bars and added them behind the frame.

The animals were cut from Create-a-Critter cartridge mounted on 3d foam.

The letters were from the Mickey Font.

The monkeys are hanging around...

Inside I used the photo of Ben being given a shower by an elephant with stickles and Candi.

Have a lovely 1st Birthday Ben.

And more Love.....

Mine this time....

This is the card I made for Robert.

I used a CWC DL card and layered with white bazzill.

The hearts were cut with a large woodware punch and embossed with a Cuttlebug plate.

The gold has black diamond stickles, the white is tinted with ink and has glossy accents and the red has platinum stickles.

I added a strip of ribbon with a knot through which I added two heart pins.

Candi dots finished the bottom edge.

A close up of the hearts.

And in return....I received red roses.... ahhhhhhh

Love is in the air...

A Valentine from Claire to her husband, Kevin.

Supplied with four photographs from their wedding last September, I created the following card.

I used BG Sugar Rush papers cut in 6cm squares to match the photo size. As they had a watermark on them I added a strip of Burgundy ribbon along the edge and the ran a line of Platinum stickles around the whole squares.

The centre panel has a scalloped circle in gold with a red heart embossed with a cuttlebug folder.

I added stickles to the debossed areas plus a button holding two heart pins.

Two other panels were decorated with the same red embossed hearts mounted over a gold one.

Candi was added to the final panels to complete and a few heart shaped gems on the ribbon as below.
