Friends of Friends!

Hey there, I'm back!!!  Hopefully you saw the sneaky peeky over at the facebook Rhapsody on Paper page.  This sneaky peeky was the back of a birthday card.  The card is going to (ok, this is tricky) my daughters best friends mom.  We have never met, but we have talked a few times.  Maybe this year we will get our girls together and finally get to meet face to face.   So here come the birthday card lyrics...

~ScrappyDew Cheerleader Girl 2015
~Scrap Factory Hair Bridgette (remember if you have Scrap Factory, you CAN change the           hair on any ScrappyDew figure)
~Recollections paper new and scraps
~DCWV Glitter stack
~INKS Colorbox Petal Point Classic
     Cookie Dough, Black and Light Blue
~Font
     Bistro Hand (found at Dafont.com)
~Die
     Banner
~Happy Birthday Font from dafont.com
~My precious Silver Bullet 24" pro cutter
~My new Grand Calibre by Spellbinders
~my needle nose tweezers, 3M spray adhesive
~Milk and Oregon Chai combo

I wanted to let you know, when you import figures from files made by ScrappyDew, keep them at original size.  Go into Scrap Factory and pic a hairstyle that you might like better.  Import that hairstyle at original size.  Then you can put the hair on the figure and adjust accordingly.  I love this feature of Scrap Factory!  So here is this weeks birthday card for Tina.

I just happened to find the little megahorn sticker at St. Vinnies.

Oops. I also used the cupcake from the Cuttlebug.  I just threw
together the happy birthday and banner from my collections
of stuff.

The back

In the envelope ready to be addressed.
I had a lot of fun making this card.  I used items that I had no idea how to use.  Thank goodness for YouTube.

For next week, I have a back to school card for a young gentleman.  Hope you can join me!!

Are you a relic?

Hello everyone!  I have a funny birthday card today.  We had 'the bobs' last week.  This week is the shop managers birthday.  Duane has known Bob since he was a little boy.  It was Duane's wish to someday work with Bob.  Well for the past 9 years he has.  Couldn't ask for a better shop manager.  Each year I make an apple pie and a birthday card.  Here is what I came up with for this year.  (yes, bob and duane could be father and son. they look so much alike)  Here is the lyrics...

~Scrap Factory program (get it if you haven't)
     Body-No open toes
     Hair-Dan
     Outfit-Couples suit 6
     Accessory-None
~ScrappyDew Fossil Hunters view #3
~Bing search for Cheese tower jpeg
~Recollections Scraps
~Paper Accents for card base
~Black Contact Paper
~Dino footprint Vector File Converted to svg
~Inkadinkado Happy Birthday Stamp
~Ranger Liquid Pearls
~SCAL V4.049 cutting software
~Silver Bullet Pro 24" cutter
***you imagine what tools I use***

So here is the card I created.  I hope that Duane gets the humor.

He got the apple pie on Thursday and will get the card on Monday.  So happy that I can make something that puts a smile on his face.

Next week another birthday card.  Slowly getting back in the groove....

Bright Blessings for a fantastic week for you!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO "THE BOB"

Today is my husband Bob's birthday.  I try to treat him like a king everyday.  Some would say that I am a 50's housewife.  But in return I am also treated like a queen!  So I try to make him birthday cards that reflect either his passion for boating or his love of working on any sort of engine.  The engines won out for this year.  But lyrics first...
