Hi all,  I made a couple of cards for some challenges.  I was going to use just one card for both challenges but then noticed after I had finished the one that I accidentally used something I wasn't supposed to.  So I just made another one.  Hope you like them.

"SWEET" Sixteen B-day Card

Hello everyone,  My niece just had her 16th birthday.  I made her card based on her birthday theme.  Candyland!  My sister made her a Candyland cake and they gave her a surprise party.  I ended up printing off pictures of the characters from the game and used one on her card. 

Cardstock: from my stash and bazzill
Patterned Paper: Doodlebug
Candy border: Doodlebug
Cartridge: Mini-Monograms
Stamp: My Pink Stamper-everyday occasions
Candyland Character from the internet

Birthday Goodie Bag

Hello everyone,   I thought I would share with you today a little goodie bag I made for one of our soccer players.  The bag is actually done by hand, the only thing I used my cricut for was the scallop circle and the pink circle.  Enjoy!

The adhesive wasn't sticking with the black paper I didn't notice it until it was too late.  Just pretend that the black paper is flush against the pink paper. 

All the paper is from my stash

Cuttlebug Birthday folder

Accordian Album

Good day everyone!

I just wanted to share with you a fun project I made.  It's a pocket size accordian album.  Perfect for teens and grandma's.  This one is made for a teenage girl to put fun pics of her and her friends.  I think it would be a fun gift for BFF's to give to each other too!.  It is double sided, so you end up with 14 pages or 7 2page layouts. 

I had fun making it and I hope you enjoy!

Pretty much everything I used for this was from a company that no longer exists.  But I wanted to share it with you anyway, maybe it could give you some ideas for something you are working on.

Doctor Who? card

I have to say I love this card I made for my nephew.  It is hard making cards for boys/men especially teenagers.  When I was trying to figure out what to do for Connor, I remembered that he is really into the TV show Doctor Who?  We watch it too so that's what made this card even funner to make.  I did it all by myself.  I think it turned out pretty good, and I hope he likes it. 

All I used for this was paper out of my stash, a ruler, pencil, navy marker and white gel pen.  Ink from Stampin Up for the distressing and a square punch. Oh, and a pair of scissors.

Thanks for stopping by!

Birthday Cake!

I have to share with you this little piece of cake made from the TBBM cartridge.  I had so much fun decorating this.  I hope you enjoy!

Inking it up Crazy--Home Decor

Over at Inking it up Crazy Kassidy has a linking up party going on.  You just need to make something that is home decor.  She would like it to be out of vinyl if possible.  I don't have any, so I thought I would share my Birthday Calender creation!

I have just recently made a ton of these for a booth.  Check out my blog post BIRTHDAY CALENDERS to see all of the different styles I have made this in.  Enjoy! (I am showing you mine, so you can see the birthdays written in)

Drama Queen Birthday Card

Hey fellow crafters,  I wanted to share with you this card I just finished making for my niece.  She just had her birthday and so the card will be a little late.  That's okay isn't it, it's the thought that counts right?   Anyway, she is turning 10 and is a major drama queen!  She really loves theatre and acting. 

I am entering it into a challenge over at crafty sprouts with Erika Valdez. She has a challenge to make a shaped card. I think this is only my 3rd try at a shaped card. I love this cut from Once upon a princess and had to try it.  I thought it turned out really cute, and I hope my niece likes it. 

Most of the paper is from my stash.  I used stickles on the crown and popped it up.  It really was a simple card to make, not much to it.

Thanks for stopping by, and I will see you next time!

Tanner (Little Man)

Here is another layout I did with my son's adorable pictures.  In this one he is such a cute little man.  I realized after I had completed the layout that I should have put "Little Man" for the title, oh well, I think it is still cute.

Layout came from a sketch by Liz Qualman. 

I used the gypsy wanderings cart for the stars and the title.

BIRTHDAY CALENDERS!!

I have missed blogging this last couple of months, all of the fun blog hops, challenges and the great inspiration I get from you fellow bloggers, but I wanted to share with you what has been taking up all of my time.

I have been getting ready for a booth at our local Peach Days celebration. I did really well with my booth, I sold quite a bit of my creations and have orders for many more. 
Here is my main source of income.  They are all different in their own way, and I can make them in many different colors to match your home decor.  They are my take on a Birthday Calender. 

I hope you enjoy them and if you have any questions leave a comment or email me, at tjscrappin@yahoo.com.  (click on a picture to few larger)
