Birthday Dog Card and Box

Hi friends, I have a fun little card and box to share with you today. My little grandson has been begging me to get him a dog for his birthday. He would say it's okay my mom would have to let me keep it since it was a gift and on and on. Just begging and begging. It was so hard not to get him a dog, but I knew his mom didn't want to have to deal with one. So I made him this little dog shaped card and a dog house treat box. He loved it. He still wished it was real but he loved it.

The dog is a Lori Whitlock file and the dog house is from Sweet Afton both from the Silhouette store. I did change the box slightly, the bone was supposed to be cut out of the house but I released it and then made it larger and cut it out of white paper and put it above the door with pop dots.

Cupcake Birthday Card

Here is another card from our girls trip.  It is from Lori Whitlock from the Silhouette store.  

To see the other cards from our trip go here, here and here.

I added foam tape to the layers for dimension and cut the cherry out 2 times and glued one flat and the other has foam tape.  

Birthday Cake Card

Okay here is the 3rd card from the girls trip cards.  For more info on this go to this blog post and this one, or just scroll back.

This is such a fun card because it is simple to make and a box card.  The sentiment even came with the file so it was a print and cut.

Birthday Cake Card

Here is card number 2 of the birthday themed girls trip cards.  For more information on this and to see the first card, go to this blog post.

This is another super quick and easy card to make.  It is also from the Silhouette store.  I added foam tape to the red layers to give it some dimension and stickles to the flame.

Birthday Card

My 4 daughters and 2 daughters in law are going on a girls weekend this next week.  You know the drill pedicures, nice dinner, movie, hiking, swimming, biking, escape room (we love these and are very good at it, we solve them every time, hope I didn't just jinx us!), games, movies and NO KIDS.  I am a little sad that my littles won't be there but their moms ARE NOT!!!

So one of the things we always do when we get together is make cards and things so I will be posting a few of the things that I made for the girls to make over the next week or so.  I did a birthday theme because you can never have enough birthday cards!

This is a super simple card to make, I went simple because I have a wide range of talents and abilities in these girls.   This is from the Silhouette store and super quick and easy to make but still a fun card.

School Pal Giraffe Cards

This cute little giraffe is from the new School Pal Giraffe cut file that will be in the store on Friday.  I just love this little guy he is so cute and super easy to put together.  I made a shaped card base with the base paper (orange) and sentiment being a print and cut and then  paper pieced the giraffe.  Make sure to pick this guy up on Friday here.

Flower Card

This fun card could be used for any occasion really it is so versatile.  This was made with my Cricut Explore and the sentiments were printed out.  I made this with my good friend Sue Neal.

Camera Shaped Card

I just love this card!!  I can't take credit for it, my friend Sue designed it (she made the svg).  It is put together with foam squares for added dimension.  The lens moves to show the sentiment inside and the balloon pulls out with another sentiment.

I have had a few of you ask if the svg is available.  It is but only in a kit with all the supplies to make the card plus 4 other cards for $30.  If you are interested let me know.

Christmas Delivery Truck Card

This little shaped card was made with the Cricut Just Because Cards.  I love shaped cards so any time I can turn something into a shaped card all the better.  The sentiment is computer generated.

I am entering this over at Cardz TV

Butterfly Shaker Card

 I love shaped cards and shaker cards, so this is the best of both worlds!  I just think making something into a shaker adds such a fun element to anything and everything!  So I am really in love with this new Butterfly Shaker Card from SVG Cutting Files.  You can get it here.  I made about 6 layers for the build up because I added some micro beads. 

Cake Birthday Card

Yippie this is my first posting with Jaded Blossom!!!  I am so excited to be a guest designer for them. This was made for the new monthly challenge at Jaded Blossom which is crafters choice.  I always am in need of birthday cards so that is what I made.  This card was made with the Simply Charmed cartridge cut at 5" high and layered with foam tape.  The fun sentiments are from the  Sweet Birthday Wishes stamp set and the tag was made with the Mini Tag Dies 2 both from Jaded Blossom.

Baby Shoe Shaped Card

This is a brand new file that will be in the SVG Cutting Files store on Friday, you can get it here

It is a flat shape but I turned it into a shaped card.  With some embossing and stitching and star brads I think it turned out pretty cute.  You could use it for a little boy or change up the colors and make it for a little girl.

Chibi Spring Bird

I think this little bird is so cute!  Annie over at SVG Cutting Files has really come up with some super cute new cut files you are going to love.  I tuned this into a shaped card which you know how I love shaped cards.  It made it into a really fun shape also.  I sized it with the shadow so it will fit into an A2 size envelope.  This little cutie will be in the store on Friday so make sure to pick him up!
