As an accompaniment to the Valentine boxes, I included these gift tags...

Boxes of Love

I created these boxes to give as Valentine gifts filled with treats! I started with basic Chinese take-out boxes, covered them with paper, added some ribbons and hearts, and Voila! An easy and fun gift!

Celebrating with Disney

This Tinkerbell card was created for my niece. Tinkerbell was a stamped image that I colored and cut out. I then pop-dotted her to the card. The flower was cut from the Walk in My Garden Cricut Cartridge, with a little glitter added to the edges to make it more girlie.

My nephew got this card for his birthday. This was just as Toy Story 3 was coming out and was all the rage. Buzz and Woody are stamped images that were colored, cut out and pop-dotted to the card. I chose the matted papers in green and darker colors to make this just a little bit more boy-ish.

A Perfect Fit

This was another anniversary card, commending two people for over 60 years of wedded bliss! For this one I used my Creative Memories Puzzle Piece punch. The pieces were punched from a textured card stock in various colors to match the polka dotted background.

Some Hearts Don't Change

I made this card for my grandparents anniversary. All of the hearts were created using the Limited Edition Valentine's Day cartridge. It was a lot of fun to try out all of the different hearts the cartridge had to offer.

Simply Sweet Baby

 

Frilly edges and soft blues and tan soften this otherwise harsh white card. This is one of my favorite cards ever!

Baby!

I had fun making this sassy baby bump invitation using the New Arrival Cricut cartridge.

It's a Baby!

Exciting news in our family this week... one of my sisters had a baby girl! Welcome to my new niece, Sophia Grace!
Below is a card I created for my mom to give to my sister!

This was created using various papers in pinks and other pastel baby colors. The BABY and the rattle were cut from the New Arrival Cricut cartridge. And of course, what baby girl's rattle is complete without a little bling?

A Very Merry Christmas

Well, my Christmas decorations are finally put away, but I still cannot let go of that Christmas spirit! Today was our first real snow storm of the season, so as I sit here by the fire, trying to keep warm, I will share my 2010 Christmas cards. Enjoy!

You've Heard of Christmas in July...

But how about the 4th of July in December? Funny twist, I know. Let's just say I am a little late posting my Fourth of July cards. Anyway... nothing wrong with spreading some patriotic spirit in the middle of winter! Enjoy!

Dreaming of Cupcakes

All the dieters of the world probably spend their days dreaming of cupcakes and other sweet treats. I know I do! I couldn't think of a more perfect way to say Happy Birthday than to let someone know its okay to indulge on their special day and give in to temptation! Life is all about enjoyment, right?
