Congrats on a long overdue promotion

Hi there and Happy Friday!!!

Here’s a card I made my fiancé for a promotion he just got that has been way overdue!!

Just a simple card using Cricut’s Beyond Birthdays & Cuttin’ Up cartridges. Using the CDS I welded the shadow of the Congrats to the Base of the Card.

Using Beyond Birthdays I cut the Congrats at 5 1/4” and You Did It at 1 7/8”. For Scott’s name I used Cuttin’ Up and welded the letters using the cartoon and shadow features, cut at 1 7/8”.

Here’s a pic of it with the back side of the envie:


And here’s with the front of the envie:


And of course I had to do a little on the inside:


Celebratory Recipe:
-CS: Bazzill Basics “Mocha Devine” and “Palo Verde”, and a shade of orange Bazzill CD
-PPs: DCWV “Once Upon a Time” stack
-Fluid Chalk Inks: “Chestnut Roan” and “Amber Clay”
-Cricut Carts: Beyond Birthdays and Cuttin’ Up

TFL!!

PS - My new crafting station is done, I just need to organize things and take pictures to show you. Stay tuned...

Lots of stuff - Overdue B-day Card, Updated pic of my nephew, Soon to have a new Crafting Station and finally back to posting

Hi everyone, sorry I've been so quiet, things have been very busy this summer and unfortunately not much too time to craft. :(

But anyway, I did get to doing a birthday card for my Aunt Joan, but of course it was a belated and I'm posting it much later than I made it. I made it mid-October and her b-day was at least two weeks prior to that. Oops! But at least she like it. :)

I actually used one of Taylor's sketches (#86) but unfortunately didn't finish it in time so I didn't fully stick to the sketch. I also used one of her stamps which is the Happy Birthday sentiment from her really beautiful Fresh Flowers set. You really should check out her store, Taylored Expressions, she has beautiful stamps that are unmounted so they are extremely reasonably priced and they come with an EZ Mount cling cushion AND they are already die cut, unlike SU! (which are great stamps too, but you have to cut them out yourself and mount them on blocks).

So anyway, here's the card:


Just love Stampendous' Scrumptious Shoes:


Here's the inside, the scrolly frame is from Cricut's Storybook cartridge with some doodling I did with a white gelly roll pen and some rhinestones:


And here it is again showing the back of the envie:

PS - My DF is finishing my new crafting station today, FINALLY!!
He started it last summer, had all the materials but ran out of time. We both have the day off today and plan to not stop until it is done.
Currently this is what I have had been using, look at that tiny workspace! ;p
This is in my upstairs hallway:




This is one of the closets I've been using that is in the room that my NEW USER FRIENDLY station will be (No longer in the hallway!), I've also been using the hallway closet. All of this will be part of and/or in my new workstation:




So stay tuned for pictures of my NEW USER FRIENDLY crafting station!!!

And while I'm at it I would like to share a current picture of my cute nephew, Chase (sadly this is only the 2nd time I've had a picture of him with me), I plan to have more!:


TFL!!!
