Baby shower

I cut the card out with the circut sampler cartridge in white and colored it with coloring pencils. The confetti was all cut from the cricut sampler and close to my heart artiste cartridge. #cricut #imadeit

Hot air balloons using Artiste by Close to My Heart

I try to decorate my coworker's office for their birthdays every year. This year I remembered a close friend told me a long time ago that she always wanted to go up in a hot air balloon. Well, most are bright primary colors and she doesn't care for yellow or red. I asked her colors she did like and she said blues and ocean type colors. She prefers black, white, and beiges generally. Here is the card I made her and fathers dad card I am working on.
Here is the banner. I attached the balloons to a piece of yarn.

The background is an overlay cut out with the close to my heart artbooking cartridge. I was inspired by the idea book.
Here is the inspiration

Birthday Bonzanza part 2

Birthday Bonzanza part 1

It was an exciting week last week!!!  One of my best friend's daughter had her first birthday. I had her this cute little owl birthday card that she enjoyed playign with. I used my Cricut Wild Card cartridge for the card and added the "Look whoo's" from the Close to My Heart Artbooking cartridge. I also used the Artbooking Cartridge to make the scrapbook pages for her mom to add the title and pictures.
