We're Monkeying Around

Hello, Hope everyone is having a great Wednesday.

Wanted to show this card I made for a friend's baby shower. The Daddy and Mommy wanted all the bedding to be monkeys, so I decided to do a monkey card. I used my Create a Critter cartridge, which I have been using a lot lately. I got my inspiration from the blanket that I bought for the baby.

It's this monkey the cutest, I saw this at Babies Rus and I just couldn't put it down, originally I picked a bigger Monkey, but, like I said, i couldn't put this little one down. The Diaper cake that I did I was attempting to make a bike. I think I did okay.

The Diaper cake consist of 50 diapers, 4 receiving Blankets.

Tell me what you think, Till next time.

Girl's Baby Shower Card

HI,

I really loved making this card,it's bright and colorful. When I got this stamp set from Verve Stamps. I couldn't wait to use it. The color choice was a little difficult for me to think of. First I found the ribbon, which I loved, and then I went from there. Making baby showers cards are fun. This card I made was for a first time mom. The little animals and so adorable, being an elephant fan, I couldn't resist. I used my copic markers to color the animals. The baby print pattern on the Aqua mist cardstock, is from a Fiskar embossing template . I found the dolly from Target and used that for the border.That's all for today.

Have a Awesome Day,

Diana

Princess Birthday Card

Good Morning,

Wanted to show you this birthday card I did for a friend's little girl. I thought pink, green and white was a good combo. This was so fun to do. It was the little girl's 1st birthday, so I wanted to make something special. Every girl is mom and daddy's little princess, so I started off with the little girl from Great Impression Stamps. I know my daughter, Anjali loves horses.So,I choose the little horse. Then I just keep going with adding more things.

Will be working on some new stuff to show you tomorrow.

Till then, Have a Wonderful Day.

Best Wishes Card

Good Morning Everyone,

Wanted to show you a card I did for a co- worker of mine, who decided to move away. I wanted to do a best wishes card. Not knowing a person for too long,I really don't get a feel for that person. But she was a nice lady who did a great at what she was doing. She was going through a tough time, and was down on her luck. So, I decided to do a card, with the hummingbird to give her a sense of peace, love of life. When she got the card, she was so happy and was in tears. She said, it reminded her of her mom because her mom would make homemade cards. I am glad I was able to put a smile to her face.

I wanted to share this with you.

Have a great day.

Baby Shower favors

Hello My Friends,

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I wanted to show you these cute favors I did for a friend of mine for her baby shower. I wanted to make something simple because, My cousin and I had to make about 50 of them. Usually doing something simple for me is not in my vocabulary. But time was short and we had to make so many, and was on a budget.

The items used for this project was, baby blue and lavender cardstock which I got from Michaels. A Baby embossing folder from Sissix, which I really love. The Stamp Set was from Papertrey ink. The Cartridge I used was from New Arrival. The Scalloped Ides was from PTI's Die collection. Thanks for stopping by.

Scooby Doo Decoration

Scooby Doo was drawn by my brother Toji. I loved painting the Scooby Doo. We used Scooby doo to take pictures with Anjali, and her friend as their thank you cards. The kids loved that. Anjali and I will making the cards today.

The Cake was fun to design, I had Super Walmart bakery to make and decorate. I drew a picture of what I wanted on the cake, bought the toys at Toys r us and they did a faboulus job. I love the ladies at Super Walmart.

Same with the pull part Cupcakes. Bought the decorations online.

Last but not least, the Scooby Doo Gang. Drawn out by Nisha,coloring by me. I used my copic and Poster Marker.

Ok, till tomorrow with the Thank you cards.

Scooby Doo Banner

Good Morning,

I wanted to show you this Scooby Doo Banner I did for Anjali's Birthday. I know, I could have just went to Party City and bought a banner but, what fun is that. This was actually one project that was not difficult at all,with my handy Dandy Gypsy.I used 2 cartridges: Create a Critter for the upside down Birthday Hat, Plantin School for the letter. The wonderful scooby was actually drawn out by my brother Toji. We used the Scooby Doo head to put in front of the treat bags, and used to decorate throughout the house. Also, he did a great job. I love the way the banner came out.

Scooby Doo Invite

HI guys,

I wanted to show you the cute invite I made for Anjali's Birthday. I wanted to do something different. Anjali is my little 7 year old now. She is a special little girl with a heart of gold. She is full of energy and always thinking of others. She wanted a Scooby Doo Party, which was a little challenging. But it ended up being alot of fun. Since there were not alot of stuff for Scooby Doo. I wanted to be creative.

I found the dog print template from Fiskcar, that I had. I used it for the embossing of the card. the Scooby Doo was from the confetti at Party City. The Little Dog Tag I used my wonderful gypsy and used the Cricut to cut out the SD and the the tag.

Tomorrow I will show you this really nice Banner and I made using the cricut for her birthday Banner.

Till tomorrow. I hope everyone has a wonderful Day.

Baby Shower Card

Hello Again,

I wanted to show you this cute card, I help design with my cousin Bela. We made for a good friend of ours who love veggie tales. Bela had told me that Veggie Tales were her favorite characters. So I got thinking, wouldn't it be great to come up with a card using veggie tales. . Shobha recently had the baby, Baby Sofia is absolutely precious.

To the design this card, I used my Gypsy, which I recently got and I fell in love. Using the cricut was fun, but after having the gypsy. I notice it is a lot more fun and I can do a lot more. The Cricut Cartridges I used was from New Arrival. The cardstock was from DCWV. The yellow ribbon I got from Target. I just love the way this card came out.

From great blogger Friend wanted more detail about how I did this card.

First the cartridges I used was the the Gypsy Font for the circle, and oval shapes for the tomato and the cucumber. I used a 1/2 circle punch for the eyes, For the teeth and diapers I just free handedly drew it out and then cut it. I Used my Copic markers to draw the lines for the cucumber. For the Baby rattle, frog, duck, tub and bubbles, I used the New arrival cartridge.

Tell me what you think. I appreciate your comments. Thanks, till tomorrow
