Cannot wait for Santa to arrive!!!!

Well as the title says I just cant wait for Santa to drop down my chimney this year.
I am getting a cuttlebug which I am over the mood about as Ive wanted something like this for agessssssssssss. I already have a craft Robo and a Cricut so have been thinking what I cud ask Santa to bring me this yr so I decided on the cuttlebug and have picked 4 of my fav embossing folders to go with. wooooooooooooooooooooo cant wait to use it and display some of my cards on here.
Hope Santa brings u all some great crafty goodies this yr.

Toy Story never ending card

ay


d
I have just made a never ending card for my friends daughters birthday on Sunday. Since we have bought her a Toy Story present I thought I would match this by making her a Toy Story card. I have fell in love with this style of card over the last few days as I think they are so much fun to play around with.
Pictures where downloaded from the internet and all papers and embellishments are from my stash. I also used the cricut cartridge alphalicous to do the lettering.
Hope you like it

New cards

I have been busy this weekend and have managed to make 3 cards.
The 1st one is for my sisters birthday on Tuesday and as she is a mad Edward (Twilight) fan I decided to make her this card, I hope she likes it.



This 2nd card I made using my free papers from the 'creative cardmaking' mag i bought last weekend. I fell in love with this card when I saw it in the mag so just had to have a go and this is my take on it.



This last card I made for a friends birthday Yesterday. I made her this card and the photo cube featured in an earlier post this week. The card and image where from my stash and I cut the nestie shape out using make the cut and a file i got from a friend.


Any feedback would be welcomed, come and tell me what you think

Toy story Birthday card

u

I made this Toy Story card for my daughters 4th Birthday last Saturday but havent had chance to upload it yet. I just downloaded an image from the net and printed it out. I used the Crafters Companion Cute companions number's stamps and cut some letters out on my cricut using Alphalicious cartridge.
Hope you like it

New cards

This is a card I have made for my Neice Lizzie who is 7 on Friday. She loves Twilight and just like me she is a total Team Jacob fan, much to her mums disappointment (team Edward lol).


These 2 pics show the inside of my card and I have done a pop out featuring footprints on one 1/2 to represent jacob as his human self and then pawprints on the other for his 'wolf' self.




This card below I made as a favour to a friend of mine as he wanted a golf card. I got the svg file from a friend and then cut the golfer out on the circut. I had trouble with the rest of the files so ended up making the scenary and frame myself to fit.



Hope you like them

Teachers cards/pressies

These are the cards I made for Roslyn's 2 teachers and the boxes to go with them. The boxes just had some toffee's, fudge and eclairs in them. I found the template for the apple on Make The Cut and then cut it with my circut. I think it turned out great.

Some new cards for orders

I just thought Id show u a couple of new cards I've made this week. Both where for an order.
The 1st is a wedding card and the 2nd is for a Everton football fan.
Let me know what you think

Baby vest

I made the below card for my Neice as her other aunty has just given birth to a baby girl. I wanted to make something a little different so I found this file on Make the cut. im really pleased how it came out and think its very sweet. Sorry the pis are a bit poor as the light kept bouncing off the image on the front.
