Cards for my Grandfather

My Grandmother asked me to make some cards for my Grandfather. She requested a Valentine card, and a Birthday card, and these are what I came up with. The monster card is cut from the Mini Monster Cricut Cartridge. I used the card feature to make the base. Then I cut the base Monster and the shift base Monster. I typed up,"I only have eyes for you." Then I used some googly craft eyes.

This card is the Birthday card, and I used the Life's a Party Cricut Cartridge for the cake, the Happy Birthday, the stars and the eat cake phrase. He is a disabled Marine, so I stuck with The Marine colors. I'm all about supporting my Military men and women. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU ALL DO!!!(esp my little brother!) Now back to the card lol, I made this card a slider card, and the eat cake on the stars is the slider part, and it shows the message another year older.
I hope you all enjoy my cards, and if you'd like the recipe, just email me. I'd love to share!

You Are Loved- Simple Stories

YOU ARE LOVED! Hey y’all! Courtney here and today I am sharing the layout I created using the So Happy Together collection. This is such a beautiful collection and I wanted to put every single piece in the collection on my layout. I decided to go with a free cut file from Paper Issues so I could use a ton of patterned papers. For backing my cut files I used a variety of pattern papers from the 6x8 paper pad. I love having the smaller prints to use with cut files. I cut my actual cut file on the Happy Heart paper, I am obsessed with anything polka dot and black and white. I cut about an inch ½ inch on each side so I could layer the beautiful Our Story paper behind it. After I filed my cut file, I began laying a ton of ephemera, chipboard and stickers. There is a ton of great images and tiny word phrases. I layered a 4x4 photo that I trimmed down to fit onto the gingham 4x4 card and then I layered it onto the My Family paper. Then I finished my cluster with a w...

You and Me- Simple Stories

YOU & ME! Hey y’all! Courtney here again and today I am sharing a layout that I created using Autumn Splendor collection. This collection reminds me of my child hood. We always had these amazing vintage calendars in our house and every year when they were done my mom would cut them up to use as ephemera or decoupage the cutouts on something artistic. For this layout, I used  a cut file from Paper Issues called You and Me and cut it out in black to make it pop off the page. Then I backed the cut file in Seasons if Change, the B side of the 4x4 elements, Grateful Hearts, Autumn Leaves, and the b side of the 2x2 elements. I used the Elm/Cream Ledger paper from the SN@P Basics as my background. I matted my photos on a piece of vellum and then on the Grateful Hearts paper. I layered them on either side of the cut file. I created three clusters with another cut file from Paper Issues called Collecting Leaves that I cut out of the Turquoise Dots paper. I then layer...
