Baby Shower Card

Used Cricut Doodlecharms and Plantin SchoolBook cartridges

Birthday Greeting from the Frog Prince

From the "Once Upon A Princess" Cricut cartridge, I used the frog prince and the birthday tag to say "Happy birthday". I then cut a square shaped card stock and added the running stitch border using a marker. The flat card was taped on top of the gift box.

Perfect for the princesses themed party!

Got Caffeine Birthday Card

Used the Accent Essentials Cricut Cartridge for the snowflakes. Had to manually cut the coffee cup. Then laced the label with brown yarn.

NES Controller Birthday Card

Needed to make a birthday card tonight to be given tomorrow since we'll be traveling for the holidays. Did a quick google search for inspiration (had no idea what to make) and came across this neat NES controller - link. This works well with the Wii motion gift for the birthday celebrant. hehehe...

Here's what I made for a 4x6 envelope.

Used white, black and red card stock paper. Didn't have gray card stock so settled for some grayish paper. Sticky Doos glued the buttons in place to have a "floating" look. A black yarn served as the wire that I looped inside the card and secured at the back with a tape.

For the "happy birthday" message inside the card, I used the Cricut. I used the midnight blue card stock for this with the tag pattern. You can see the "controller wire" snaking through at the bottom right.

Cricut cartridge "Plantin Schoolbook" was used for the "happy birthday" message.

The card needs improvement but not bad for a rush project. :-)
