Birthday Card for a fisherman

I used green cardstock for the base of the card. The background paper is from Provo Craft. All the fish were from Everyday Paper Dolls.  The large fish were cut at 2.50 inches and the small fish were cut at 1 inch. All the cut lines were inked with brown ink. The celebrate is a dollar stamp from Michaels craft store. Cardstock and pattern paper were inked on the edges. Enjoy!

Shape Card- Travel Trailer

I used the gypsy for this card. I sized it to be an A2 card. I used Everyday Paper Dolls. I welded 2 campers together. Then I cut 2 more out, one in solid cardstock and on with pattern paper. I cut the pattern paper cutout apart and used pieces to decorate with. I made the curtains and tie backs freehand. I put vellum behind the door and windows. I used my white gel pen to add some detail. The nice thing with the gypsy is I can design all the cards and then when there is time lay out all the paper and cut. Don't have to worry about getting the cartridges out. This card can be used for going away, vacation or birthday or anyone who enjoys camping. Enjoy!

Dad Card

For this card I used:

Don Juan cartridge for the word Dad I welded it together with my gypsy and the height is 1.92 inches. The number sign is cut at height .61 inches and the 1 is cut at .92 inches.

Paper Dolls for Everyday Trophy cut at height 5.24 inches (not real dial size)

The pattern paper is from an old My Mine's Eye collection.

I tore the edges on the top paper on all four sides and on the bottom layer only two sides and used a border punch on one edge.

Kraft cardstock for the base of the card.

I rounded one corner and used a white gel pen to put stitch marks on one side and bottom.

The trophy is popped up one layer and the Dad is two layers. Enjoy!

Fishing Birthday Card

For this card I used the gypsy to weld all the words. The letters came from Don Juan cartridge. The fisherman came from the Everyday Paper Dolls cartridge. I like that I can lay everything out on the gypsy and just cut. I don't have to get cartridges or booklets out. I inked all the edges and went around some of the designs with a white gel pen. The fishing pole I added some string and ties the fish on the string. I used pop dots to give the fish dimension and I also coated them with a clear glaze. The background paper was in my stash and I ran it through my big shot with the cuttlebug foler Spots and Dots and then sanded the raised areas. I used silver shimmer paper for the letters. I used Peachy Keen stamps for the face. Inside the card I put Happy Birthday and a fish cut from Everyday Paper Dolls. Enjoy!

Welcome Little One

This card was made using all the scrapes on my table. The background paper was K and Co. valentine pattern paper. The cartridge used was Everyday Paper Dolls. The baby cut. The pink outfit was cut at 3 inches. I used a pink ink to highlight the details. I ran it through my big shot with the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder. The head was cut at 3 1/2 because the 3 inch head looked to small. The face is a peachy keen stamp and the stamp set is called Dolly Dumplins. I bought them online at www.peachykeenstamps.com The hair was cut at 3 1/2 inches and I used a white gel pen for the detail. I tied the pink bow and then glued it to the outfit. I mounted the doll on to black cardstock and then used the border punch Threading Water by Fiskars and attached it to the back of the cardstock . The doll was attached with pop-dots to give dimension. I used a white gel pen to go around the edges of the black cardstock to look like stitches. The "baby" is a dollar stamp from Michaels. Enjoy!
