A Creative Card

Cute little any occasion card!

Popcorn Pocket Card

For this project Michelle used her Cricut to recreate the super cute pocket card created by Cindy McVey. She used the Cricut, Gypsy, and the Cartridges: Fabulous Finds, Graphically Speaking, Plantin School Book, and Tags, Bags, Boxes and More.

Cupcake Cards

We created a variety of Birthday cards using a Cupcake stamp set by Inkadinkado! Click on any photo to enlarge detail.
We used Liquid Applique to create the look of chocolate frosting!

A little pink & yellow Stickles glitter glue was added to the cupcake wrappers for a little sparkle!

Embossed Brads

This is a great idea to make absolutely ANY brad unique! Grab some embossing ink, your favorite embossing powder, add a little heat and WOW! A one of a kind custom made brad perfectly matched for your project!

Michelle used her embossed brad to beautify her hand made tissue paper flowers!

Cute ways to get Organized

I found these cute baskets in a variety store in Enterprise Oregon, I couldn't resist.

They are about the size of strawberry baskets

This great display rack was in a Antique store on the coast. I thought it would hold pens nicely!
