Surf Board Shaped Card

When I popped into my local papercraft shop (Flutterby Crafts) I saw some packs of folded cards and a card designed by Nicky Hayden which inspired me to make this card.

I have used a number of files from The Cutting Cafe with my Pazzles Inspiration for this SHAPED SURF BOARD CARD so here goes.......

I used the CLOUD BACKGROUND COLORED SET....printable stamp set, added my own seagulls and glitter to the clouds.

I then used the SUN SAND SURF printable stamps set for the text and waves which have been layered onto my folded base card from Flutterby Crafts. The surf boards were cut using KaiserCraft papers from the Candy lane collection with the SURFBOARD SHAPED CARD SET....template - cutting file cut out on my Pazzles.

A cute button, ribbon, pearls and doodling finished off this fun card.......so here in the UK I scream where is the SUN!

I have entered this card into several challenges:-
One Layer Wednesday - Summer Holidays

A Spoonful of Sugar - Here comes summer

Deep Ocean Challenge - Anything Goes

Graduate Shaped Card

For this shaped card, which I cut on my Pazzles Inspiration, I have used 3 files from The Cutting Cafe!!!!  I thought the INTERSTATE SHAPED CARD could double up as a trophy plaque, you know the sort that graduates receive on their Graduation day. 

I then printed out the 2011 CONGRATS GRAD Printable Stamp Set onto Kraft Card, then printed and layered the sentiment 'G is for Graduate' from the G SHAPED CARD SET. I have also stamped some swirls using a stamp with black ink around the sentiment.

See how The Cutting Cafe cut files and printable stamps can be used for various cards when your imagination gets into crafty mode, like mine often does just when I am just nodding off to sleep!

I have entered this card into the following challenges:-

Creative Card Crew - Anything Goes

Digi Doodles - Anything Goes

Anniversary Card

Just looking at some files I had on the computer this afternoon and I've made my husband's anniversary 2 weeks early.......how organised it that!

I have used a graphic set, then used the print and cut feature on my Pazzles Inspiration and added my own computer generated sentiment.

I then layered the cut out heart on foam pads, added glitter on the wings and adhered a heart shaped button.

My husband will be so surprised as it makes a change from rushing to make him a card at the 11th hour!

I am entering this card into a few challenges:-

A Spoon Full of Sugar - Anything goes
The Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge - Wedding Anniversary
CAS-ual Fridays - Clean and Simple

Flip Flop Shaped Card

Summer is here and I couldn't resist making this FLIP FLOP shaped card from The Cutting Cafe. It is my all time favourite shaped card and super quick to cut out on my Pazzles Inspiration.

This FLIP FLOP shaped card is approx. a little bigger then 2 by 5 inches....it comes with 3 embellishments to put on the flip flop and a matching envelope. The file comes in the following formats: wpc, pdf and svg.

I have used October Afternoon double sided paper which comes in 12 x 12 called Patio Umbrella available here.

Last year I made a pink FLIP FLOP shaped card from the same template for my daughter which you can take a peek at here.

Have a PURR-FECT Day

Here is my brightest card to-date which I have cut out using my Pazzles Inspiration. I have used this image from a graphics set which is so easy to use and makes a great quick card.

A few rhinestones for the collar, a heart cut out of glitter card and I am done!

Lampshade card

Just a quick card here designed on my Pazzles Inspiration. Although I love sending cards to my friends and family sometimes I am a bit late getting my act together to actually get them in the letter box!!!! I think I might make a few of these which I am sure will come in handy.

I have cut the base card on my Pazzles Inspiration to match the scallops on the shade. I have used a graphics file from Lettering Delights as I am now getting to grips with my Print and Cut, which I am loving.

Finally, I added a bow and some glitter on the lampshade. I have used fonts for the text that are on my computer and matched the colours with my lampshade.
