Time To Celebrate..Happy Birthday

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

It has been awhile since I have posted on my blog. Today I am sharing a birthday card using a Cut and Emboss die that I recently purchased. Card is 5" x 6 1/2".

Anna Griffin Corner Pocket Dies - The white corner pocket is cut and embossed using my Cuttlebug machine. This set includes three dies. This die set is made for the Empress Embossing machine, but I have now cut and embossed two of the dies. The third die is too large for the Cuttlebug. Does that mean that I will have to buy an Empress?

Cricut Cartridges:

Insert Shape: 

Card is cut 10" wide x 6.5" high from white cardstock. Yellow patterned paper is cut 4.75" wide x 6.25" high.

Card for a Red Hat Lady

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Time to have a little fun with Red and Purple! I wanted to make a card for a Red Hat Lady. The pretty dark purple paper reverses to a light purple and works well for me. It is from The Paper Company and I purchased it a long time ago at a clearance price. Red paper is Recollections.

Cricut Cartridges:

Anna's Gracious Giftables - Teapot Holder is cut 17.73" wide x 10.6" high. This is the size recommended on Anna's blog which also includes a gift card image for the inside and a band to go around the card. This makes a large teapot, about 7 3/4" wide. I will size down the teapot image when I make it again. Red Roses are print and cut...size is 3.25" wide. I cut two with one image on flip. I did not record the size of the smaller roses used inside the card.

Anna's Lovely Layered Cards 2 --Tag is cut 1.837" wide x 3"high.

Anna's Lovely Layered Cards -- Happy Birthday Friend is written with the Cricut Midnight pen on the above mentioned tag.

Red Crinkle Ribbon from DL.ART is used to tie the sentiment tag on the teapot. Thanks Diana for the pretty ribbons!

Mother's Day Explosion Card

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

 

I have another Mother's Day card to share with you. After viewing pretty explosion cards and some are called pop out explosion cards, I wanted to try making one. There are many tutorials available on the construction of this card style.

 

My project started with a card base cut at 4.50" x 9", when folded makes a 4.50" x 4.50" card. The pretty double-sided papers are from Anna Griffin Rose Medley pack. The paper insert is cut 8.50" x 8.50". This is the folded part that is used inside.

Cricut Cartridges:

Fantastic Flip Cards - Heart Embellishment is cut 3.285" x 3.054". I cut 2 of the cut out hearts and one of the solid hearts. Sentiment "I Love You" is written on an inserted 3.5" wide x 2.25" rectangle of the pink solid paper which is used inside the card.

Anna's Lovely Layered Cards - Happy Mother's Day is written with the Cricut Midnight pen on the scallop pink heart embellishment.

Anna's Print then Cut Library - Rose is used on the Happy Mother's Day heart.

 

I cut a 1.25" wide green band to wrap around the card. 

Cricut Create a Critter - Word Mom. This is applied to the second heart embellishment. It is pop-dotted on the band. 

Outside of card with the band.

I really like the way this turned out and of course, I love the pinks and greens! Hope you enjoy!

Large scroll embellishment is cut 2.603' wide x 4.125" high. I also cut a smaller scroll but did not record the size.

Flowers are print and cut and turned out so pretty. I used geraniums, roses, and camellias of varying sizes.

Anna's Lovely Layered Cards - Happy Mother's Day is written on the white mat using the Cricut Honeysuckle Pen. It does not show well, but I liked the pen color with the paper colors.

Cuttlebug:

Anna Griffin Matelasse embossing folder is used on the white mats on the sides of the boxes for added dimension.

Happy Birthday Shaker Card

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I thought Spring had sprung in our area, but it is much cooler today! Nice day to stay inside and play with the Cricut machine! Today I am sharing my first attempt at a shaker card. Needing a birthday card for one of my Red Hat Lady friends, I was excited to play with red and purple. I was inspired to use sequins by the FCCB blog but would you believe I had to buy sequins! I like the way this turned out so I will probably use sequins again!

My white cardstock card measures 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". Patterned paper is from a Red Hat Society paper pack that I have had for ages! Solid papers are Recollections scraps from previous projects. 

Cricut Cartridges:

Cindy Lou - Frame is cut 3.50" wide x 3.02" high. I actually cut two frames, one from red paper and the one from purple paper. I chose to use the purple frame and I cut the red flower segment out of the red frame and placed it on the purple frame. I could not find any acetate paper so I hand cut a piece from a scrapbook page protective cover. The light purple paper was hand cut for the backing of the frame. Red and purple sequins are used inside the frame.

Classic Font - Thinking of You is cut 2.75" wide. I lost the two little dots for the i's and chose to use two sequins. Works for me!

Anna's Lovely Layered Cards - Happy Birthday Friend is written with a red Precise V5 Pilot pen on a 3.75" square.
