So today after I came home from work I got busy making a festive birthday card for my friend's upcoming birthday. </div><div></div><br /><div>The border was cut out using a Martha Stewart punch.

So off I was to create this birthday card. I didn't know what to do. It's easier for me to create for a female than for male. I feel like we're kind of limited in what we can do for the males. I'm really pleased with the way the card turned out. I used Cricut's Mickey & Friends cartridge for the Mickey. The font is Cricut's Mickey Font. I used a Studio G stamp for the word "Happy Birthday." I heat embossed it using red embossing powder by Stampendous. I embossed the letters with Cuttlebug's distressed stripes folder and the area behind Mickey with Cuttlebug's traffic jam folder.<br /><br />The paper is by Making Memories. The ribbon is from Michael's. I used a Martha Stewart punch to punch out the circle. I love how it came out. I had never done that before and it was just an idea that popped into my head. I then stamped the number using a Martha Stewart clear stamp set I have.<br /><a href="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/eca0eab8.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/eca0eab8.jpg" border="0" /></a> I also used stickles (frosted lace) for Mickey's hands. <img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/ef829bf3.jpg" border="0" /><br /><a href="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/4613a0fe.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/4613a0fe.jpg" border="0" /></a> So I had the front all done and then I stamped the inside with Happy Birthday. ACK....I stamped it upside down. So I had to cover up my boo boo. The folder it was. I used Cricut's Fabulous Finds. I figured I could use it to stick in the gift card or $. So I went to stamp the Happy Birthday above the folder. Ugh....I did it again. So that's why I mounted the paper with the word "Happy Birthday." It actually turned out cute - it coordinates w/ the paper in the front.

First time this year. We went once last year but the timing wasn't good and there were no fish. Before that I can't remember the last time - it had been a while. So we were excited to have gone yesterday and catch lots of them. DD fished for her first time and caught 9. We were all so surprised and excited for her. I caught 17. Woo hoo!! That was nice!! The weather was really nice too. Here's a picture of me with the first one I caught. Hubby told me to pick it up and I was trying to grasp it by it's tail....I don't like to pick up live fish (they're all squirmy).</div>Helena (Caughtabug)http://www.blogger.com/profile/01405131044820028461noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7181735553268444673.post-76662697898662323372008-08-25T17:03:00.003-04:002008-08-25T17:08:25.464-04:00Bella Birthday Card<a href="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/01a197b6.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/01a197b6.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/8e9f8673.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/8e9f8673.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Mom's birthday is coming up and today I worked on her card.

I saw all the adorable pictures and found it ah well....CUTE. Uh hum....because it hadn't hit home. Well...I go out for a haircut and the bright kid that I thought I had - who would never think to do such a thing - ah well is still bright because she figured she deserved a haircut too. She knew Mommy was getting one. </div><div></div><br /><div>When I saw what you see in the pic...THAT chunk of hair...my heart (ah well....you know the feeling). But it's funny how she didn't do it all in one place. She actually made it look really cute. Her ponytails looked adorable with the layers. I'm so glad I captured this moment and even more so that I scrapped and journaled it. It will be a moment we will never forget and "a fortunate accident."</div><br /><div></div><div>Supplies Used:</div><ul><li>Graphically Speaking cartridge - a fortunate accident</li><li>Stickles - Baby Blue</li><li>Embossing - Cuttlebug Snowflake Folder</li><li>Snowflakes - Martha Stewart Punch</li><li>Ribbon - Target</li></ul></div></div>Helena (Caughtabug)http://www.blogger.com/profile/01405131044820028461noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7181735553268444673.post-35964407094725633202008-08-22T22:55:00.004-04:002008-08-22T23:06:51.130-04:00LITTLE SCOOPS LAYOUT<a href="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/IMG_2005-1.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/IMG_2005-1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/IMG_2006.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/IMG_2006.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>This is the first layout I worked on since I got back from vacation (just some old photos I needed to scrap). I had such an urge to scrap - it had been probably 3 or 4 weeks since I had scrapped. I cut out my new Storybook cartridge out of that tuff packaging and tried it out. This cartridge ROCKS!!!<br /></div><div>I used the Tall feature for the font and then I went stickle happy. I thought if I'd dot they could be sprinkles. Ok maybe not sprinkles but what are those round dots called? They're like sprinkles.</div></div>Helena (Caughtabug)http://www.blogger.com/profile/01405131044820028461noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7181735553268444673.post-1295785676147781752008-08-22T22:10:00.003-04:002008-08-22T22:35:43.687-04:00AWARDS LAYOUT<a href="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/0637ea71-1.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/0637ea71-1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/8e3758f5.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/8e3758f5.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/0fc5946f.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k426/hfresco/0fc5946f.jpg" border="0" /></a>Here it is....one of the layouts I worked on this week. Actually I just finished this one about an hour ago. It was a quickie one. The paper is from DCWV's Grade School Stack (great stack - I got it online from Joann's). I used my new cart Graphically Speaking cart for the phrase "School Zone." I used "Frosted Lace" stickles on the phrase. <div><div><div><br /><div></div><div>The font is Mickey Font cut at 1/2". WOW....a font that doesn't tear my letters at such a small size. I attempted using Base Camp (thought it would work) but part of the letters were too narrow and it would tear. </div><div></div><br /><div>The circles behind the letters are a Martha Stewart punch (such a fan of her punches). I inked the edges and attached them to the paper with eyelets using my Crop-o-dile.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I used my new Martha Stewart circle cutter I bought at Walmart. It works pretty good. I used an old Cricut mat underneath when I was cutting since I don't have a cutting mat.</div><div></div><br /><div>The rounded corners were done with the Stampin Up corner rounder.</div></div></div></div></div></div>Helena (Caughtabug)http://www.blogger.com/profile/01405131044820028461noreply@blogger.com0
