Red and Zebra High Heel Shoe Birthday Card

It is high heeled shoe #2!  I just love this file and I had another friend celebrating a birthday.  But, she is a shoe lover and she loves black and white zebra with red.  So I just had to make this for her!  Besides, I just love this file.  It is from The Cutting Cafe and is the High Heel Shoe Shaped Card.  I know this file will get lots of use.  If you want to see more shoes, this was a design team project a couple weeks ago.  Click here to see the things the team came up with!   Below are a couple more pictures and be sure to watch the video for more details.  Thanks for stopping by!

Purse Shaped Treat Box and Card – The Cutting Cafe Design Team Project

21 Aug
Purse Shaped Treat Box and Card

Purse Shaped Treat Box and Card

Girly girl projects continue at The Cutting Cafe with purse project week!  YES!  I love purses, just like I love shoes!  And we had two files to work with that offer tons of options.  I used both.  The “C” background that I used to make the paper with comes in the Assorted Purse Boxes file that has about five or six purses and accessories.  The rest of my project comes in the Purse Shaped Card and Treat Box file.

There are several layers in this file.  I used the outline/shadow in black, the top in the “C” paper I made, the upper top and handle in a red croc print paper, and then I used the card base and the box base.  I added a tag cut from a sizzix die and layered a sentiment from the file on it.  I attached it with Tim Holtz ball chain to mimic a real Coach bag.  The sentiment in the card also comes in the file.

I love them!  I can’t wait to make more.  Here are more views…

High Heel Shoe Birthday Card The Cutting Cafe Design Team Project

14 Aug
High Heel Shoe Birthday Card

High Heel Shoe Birthday Card

This week’s file from The Cutting Cafe was definitely up my alley!  I love shoes and purses (hint hint) and this High Heel Shoe Shaped Card is the bomb, the business (ode to Shanta), and just plain fantastic!  There are many layers and sentiments to help you make this your own.  I could make 50 of them and they would all end up looking very different depending on the layers I use and the papers.  Unfortunately, the picture does not really do it justice.  The card is just awesome and the person I gave it to most definitely thought so!

I used a black shimmer cardstock with lime green and silver polka dot glitter paper, and a light green for the base and insole.  I used some sunburst punches on the heel to give it a peek-a-boo effect and show some of the glitter paper.  I used a glitter flower and a ribbon slider and mint green half back pearl to finish the bows.  I absolutely love this card and will be making more of them very soon!  Here are a few more pics…

Items for Hubby’s Board of Directors Celebration and Other Projects

21 May

This past week I worked on several projects.  So let’s start with the biggest project first.

Items For Husband's Board Celebration

Items For Husband’s Board Celebration

Hubby asked me to make a card for a Board member who won the national volunteer of the year award for the organization he works for.  The card evolved into a card, place cards with the Chicago skyline, a mailbox with the skyline and note cards for the other Board members to write notes of thanks to the award recipient, and a certificate.  Everything turned out nicely and his Board loved them, but more importantly, he loved them!  Here are some individual pictures…

And, lastly, I have a couple of additions to the baby shower items I made.  I created a money holder, which I used as a holder for a certificate for a custom mini album I will make for the baby, and a gift card holder.  Both are from the Word Gift Card and Money Holders Template Cutting File from The Cutting Cafe.  I loved the way they turned out!
