Christmas Card & Newsletter

I saw an adorable newsletter on Pinterest this year. It was so unique and to the point with cute little graphics to boot. I attempted to make one myself, but that was a disaster! SO, I contacted my usual gal who does my cards for everything and had her make me one. You can have her make you one by visiting http://www.etsy.com/shop/deanworks?ref=shop_sugg. She had actually never seen a Christmas letter like this, so hopefully she will start selling them in her shop along with her amazing cards.

Happy Christmas, Merry Everything!

Boy Birthday Cards

Spring means several birthday parties. I am always short boy cards, so here are a few I whipped up today. I used the Cricut Plantin Schoolbook and Home Decor cartridges for the shapes you see.

Bee card: black card stock, brown netting sheet, Cricut for the bee, and white card stock with printed "happy birthday." Green card stock, gingham ribbon, and Cricut for the circles, parentheses and scallop.

Brown, yellow, light green, and darkk green card stock, green netting sheet, Cricut for the arrows, orange brads.

Blue sparkle sticker cardstock (I freehand cut the tie), white out pen for the smiley, ribbon scraps, strapler to attach the ribbon.

Green patterned, orange, and black speckled card stock, Cricut for the oval, eyes and the attenas consist of a dash and circles.

Gray speckled card stock, Cricut for the city scape, white card stock with printed "Happy Birthday."

Happy New Year

Here is our newest creation from Kara at Deanworks (an etsy.com shop). She does such an amazing job! The design is $15. She has multiple to choose from. You just e-mail her the pictures you want and the design requested once you pay for the card through paypal on etsy.com/deanworks. She gets a proof to you right away. Then you can upload the picture to walmart.com or whatever photo site you use and voila, you have a custon designed card!
