This week at The Cutting Cafe we are focusing on gratitude! We could use the Grateful Word Shaped Card or the With Gratitude Printable Stamp Set which is what I used. For this card for my mother-in-law, I layered patterned papers from Teresa Collins and used the treasure sentiment from the stamp set. I layered and Stickled flowers also. I like the way it turned out. Here are more views…

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!
Red and Zebra High Heel Shoe Birthday Card – Back
Red and Zebra High Heel Shoe Birthday Card – Inside
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…
High Heel Shoe Birthday Card – Inside Sentiment
We did have another file we could use this week and it is really cute too. The Vintage Boot Shaped Card is really nice to make a shabby chic card with. Well thanks for stopping by. Be sure to head over to The Cutting Cafe Blog later on Wednesday afternoon for Inspiration Wednesday, where Regina will post all of this week’s design team projects. Check out the video…
Crafticakes7 on YouTube had a challenge giveaway for reaching 300 subscribers. She wanted to see what kind of masculine cards for any occasion that people come up with as it tends to be harder to do cards for males as you can’t use flowers, glitter, ribbons, bling, etc. So someone I work with has a birthday coming up, so I made this card for him and entered in into the challenge. Thanks for stopping by and be sure to watch my video below for the information on what was used.
My wonderful mother just celebrated a birthday. Here are pictures of the card I made for her and a video. I used K & Company’s Abrianna collection. The envelope is made by folding one 12 x 12 sheet of paper. I got the idea from NurseTara04 on YouTube and watched a tutorial by Christina Betts on YouTube showing how to fold the envelope. Thanks for visiting.
