Magic Birthday Card Using Cricut Artiste and Cricut Art Philosophy

Hi to all my wonderful followers, friends and fellow crafters.  It is starting out to be a fabulous New Year.  My husband and I took a mini vacation and went to Sacramento and Redding, CA to see all the gorgeous mountains and scenery.  We went to Mount Shasta and several other places.  It was great to see the snow; but I wouldn't want to live with all that ice again as I did in MO.  My husband did all the driving; so it was very relaxing for me.  It was nice to get away for a few days.
I made this card before our mini vacation for a dear friend of mine named Rose.  I thought it was very appropriate for her since it had roses on it.  Rose was like a second mother to me when I was a child.  Her daughter, Jakye and I were best friends in grade school/junior high and inseparable.  Jakye tracked me down after over 30 yrs of losing touch with each other.  It is so great to reconnect with my long time friend.  

I used a digi stamp from Paper Makeup Stamps called "Moody For Flowers".  I love their beautiful digi stamps and this one is one of my new favorites.  I used the tutorial found on Marianne Skjelstad's blog. I fell in love with this "Magic Card" as soon as I saw it. Check out the tutorial and try it out for yourself if you haven't already tried it. I think this is my new favorite card design.  It isn't that hard to make with the wonderful tutorial.

Birthday Card - Step Centre Card - Using Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge

DT Project for Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #43 - Step Centre Card.

Hi fellow bloggers/crafters/friends.  It has been cold here in Southern CA at night; but nice during the day.  I hope you are having good weather wherever you are; or at least having fun and enjoying your life. 
 
Come join another great week for Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #43 - Step Centre Card.  Our sponsors this week are Paper Makeup Stamps and Sassy Studios.  I hope you take the time to check out the beautiful creations by the DT.  We have some incredible talent.  If you would like to be a Guest Designer, put GDT after your name when you enter. Pick and choose from our Bingo board for items you want to use on your card and then enter it at Tammy's Scrapin Corner.
 
I chose Paper Makeup Stamps - "Wayne Fairy" and created a birthday card for my grandson.  I had originally planned to give him the scarecrow card I made; but when I started this one - I just knew it belonged to Jayden. 
 
My daughter later told me he loves to play on the bales of hay at my brothers house; which I wasn't aware of until the card was finished.  The little fairy even looks like Jayden.   I added their newest addition to their family - Gizmo.  My daughter sent me a picture and I tried to color Gizmo based on his picture.  He looks much better than my little dog; but I tried.  He is actually a long haired white Pomeranian mix with golden hair color splattered here and there.
 
I used a tutorial from Desire - Doing Life blog for the buttons.  Go to her blog and scroll down, click on "Older Posts" and then go to April 23, 2012 for the tutorial.
