Two projects for Teacher Appreciation Day

Created 2 pages for my daughter and she decorated to take for Teacher Appreciation day coming up at her preschool in May. She got to help with making these, and was very excited.

April Card Swap - Celebration Card

My second card design for a April Card Swap. Used the Cricut Celebration cartridge for the cupcake card, and made a cupcake embellishment by layering. It was my daughter’s question, “mom why there are no sprinkles on the cup cake?”, that led to adding some foil confetti becoming the sprinkles. Folded some vellum to create the cup cake base. Hope you like it.

April Card Swap Thank You Card

My first card swap. Very excited!! This is a Thank You card I made using my Cuttle Bug to emboss and Cricut to cut. Hope you like it.

Disney Aurora with Cricut


Disney Aurora princess I made using a cricut cartridge and layering the different pieces. Is about 8” in height.

Disney House

Made this Disney house for my daughter using the Mickey Cartridge and layering the different cuts from my cricut. Size is about 2.5", was bit of a challenge assembling all the small layers, but love the result.

Mom's Birthday Card

A Birthday card I made for my mom using my Cricut Expression and Design Studio. I cut into the paper the words LOVE MOM, and the word MOM in brown is cut and glued to the inside of the card, but shows through to the front of the card. Thanks for viewing.

Mothers Day mini book

This is a simple and cute mini book I made for my Mom for Mothers Day. I know Mothers are really special and so I made a mini book for my Soooooooooo Special Mom. Love you Mom. I tried using varieties in my book. Like there you will be able to see Pop up Mom Letters, Spinning wheel,Note in a pocket and Isris paper folding technique. I made using Story book cartridge using design studio. For spinning wheel I used Inkscape and SCAL.

I also made a box styled envelope using Inkscape and SCAL, but I am having problems sharing the file online, if you would like to have it, email me. In addition, I created a spinning wheel on one of the pages, this is the link for the inkscape file to that, Click Here.

Thanks for having a look at it. I hope you all like it. Look forward to your comments.
