Birthday Card

Our challenge on Creative Twists this week is to use a book to inspire us. I used the cover of a book as a sketch for my card. I made this card for my niece for her birthday. I also used a new stamp for this card which was the challenge on Stampspiration.

I couldn't help myself...

My jukebox was begging for a makeover. I haven't decided if I'm going to do anything else to it yet or not.

Added bling to my bug.

Well after the paint job I still thought that my bug looked a little plain. Anyone who knows me knows that I can't handle "white" space. I cut my butterflies with vinyl. It was so easy to use and know by bug is done. (I've just started on my jukebox!)

carts - graphically speaking and indie art

cricut settings for cutting vinyl (start with a new blade):
blade - 2

I also hot glued on some Offray My Moment Petite Gems for a little bling.
