Thinking of You Card

Hi Paper Lovers....
I dont know what it is about this little card...but I LOVE it!!! It might be the adorable giraffe or the even cuter birdie sitting on his bum....or maybe its the Stickles I added to the giraffe, birdie and clouds.....or the fact that this card went together so easily.......or it could even be the stamped heart flowers and butterflies...I just love it all!
Do you ever feel that way about a card you have made??? I am making FIVE more right now just to have on hand!
The background paper is from DCWV Sorbet Stack.
All cuts are from the Create A Critter cartridge....
The GIRAFFE is on pg. 48 and was cut at 4.5"
The BIRDIE is on pg. 65 and was cut at 1"
The CLOUDS are on pg. 28 and are cut at 1"

Super Sweet Birthday/ Sweet Treats series #7



Hi Paper Lovers...




Before we get to my card.....I wanted to remind everyone that tonight at 7 PM PST time....MOMO is having her first ever U-Stream show LIVE!!!!! Hope you can make it...she is going over some basic info on card making and teaching us 4 different card folds....I am so excited and cant wait....please come if you can and support our wonderful friend!!!




Now on to the card...
I wanted to make a birthday card for Tangee's mom over at KricutKrazy She asked her blog followers to make a card for her mom which I think is so super sweet! I just had to make her one. And it gave me an exuse (like I need one) to pull out my favorite SWEET TREATS cartridge!!! I took a little break from the series, but I am back =)

I designed this card in my Gypsy but kept the sizes true to the Cricut so you can make it even if you dont have a Gypsy.
Here are the sizes......

the CUPCAKE, ICE CREAM CONE & the CAKE are all cut at 1.5"
hmm....thats it LOL!!! That was easy! Below is my YouTube tutorial. Thanks for stopping by. Hope to "see" you guys tonight on U-Stream!!! Have a blessed day!!!
