Nathan's Grad Card



This card is my first ever graduation card, and I think it came out pretty well. I know quite a few graduates but i've only really gotten to know 1 of them, and that's Nathan. We were both on the wrestling team, we always bug each other and we have gotten to be really great friends. He actually asked me to go to his Grad Dinner & Dance with him (which is tonight) and I just had to make him a card.

Our school colours are Red and Gold, so of course I had to us those colours. The grad cap and the diploma were cut out on the cricut machine. As for the "congrats" and the quote on the inside, that is not a stamp! It is my calligraphy (and I'm really happy it actually turned out well).

The quote I thought was prefect sience he and I both love wrestling and I also thought it was great for graduation because people think of graduation as "when you start living your own life".

Finally, knowing some of the people that follow my blog, you are probably wondering why it says "(Kitten)". Well...he gave me that nickname in wrestling: one of the times we were wrestling I accidentally scratched him. And after that he called me kitten, it used to make me mad, but now I've gotten used to it. After going through his Facebook, I found a picture of Nathan with a cowboy hat, so I call him Cowboy.

He is coming here to take pictures (mommy's request) and I have Cat ears and he has a Cowboy hat. There will be some cute pictures, and some weird looks when we go to the dinner & dance. :)

My Mom's Mother's Day Card



Here is the Mother's Day card I made for my picture taking Mother.

I fond this quote and fell in love with it, and so did my mom. So I hand wrote it on her card: 
Life is like a camera...
Focus, on what's important,
Capture, the good times,
Develop, from the negatives,
And if things don't work out,
Take another SHOT!

For this card I used:
• BoBunny - mama-razzi2 12 by 12 & 6 by 6 paper
• Stampin' Up - Wonderful Mother - "Happy Mother's Day!"
• CTMH - Sightseer Everyday Life - camera
• CTMH - Take Note Cricut Bundle - camera film & note paper
• CTMH - Artbooking - note paper cut out
• CTMH - Cardstock - black
• Memento ink - black
• Zig pen - black

Jessica's 16th Birthday Card



Cruising at 16!

I am so glad that Jessica's birthday is at the beginning of the year because I've been dying to play with the driving Kraft'n'Kimmy. (Most of my friends' birthdays are in October and November.)

I used these copics to colour the girl that's driving in style: E35, BG05, Y04, BG07, N3, N5, N7, C4, C5, C6, C7, G05, RV09, E47, E44, E43, E00.

Spencer's Valentine's Day Card







As soon as I saw this paper line, I know I'd be using it for my (ex) boyfriend's Valentine's Day card. I thought the sheet music with hearts was perfect, since we are both in the Strings class together, at school; I play Violin and will be learning the Viola in a couple weeks and Spencer plays Viola. 

On this card I used Bo Bunny's Love Letters Journal 12 by 12 and 6 by 6 paper line. I also used Close to my Heart's Juniper Cardstock, Cocoa ink, Sweet Music Everyday life (stamp set), and Whooo's Your Valentine Constant Campaign NPM (stamp set). From Stampin' Up I used Occasions Alphabet (stamp set), and Early Espresso pen.

P.S. typed this up when we were still dating, just didn't have the picture on the computer. I love the way the card turned out, but this kind of an awkward post for me.

Caelan's 15th Birthday card



I was so excited to make this card. Most of my girlfriends are tom boys, so i don't get to make all that many girly cards. (When i do it's for my friend, Shyla, but i make cards specifically for her.) I've always loved the mermaids from Kraft 'n' Kimmy, and I finally got us one. Girly cards are so much fun (and kinda easier). I had so much fun with this card, and i love how it turned out. 
Caelan has never gotten one of my cards. She has seen my binder covers, and my artsy school projects, but never one of my cards. She loved it and was so amazed (but not surprised. lol.)

Drue's 15th Birthday card



When I saw this Close to my Heart stamp set, I thought of the quote from Harry Potter. My best friend Drue loves Harry Potter, So i thought it would be the perfect card for her.
