My mother turns 95 today! Unreal, eh? She still bowls and hubby & I took a homemade cake to the bowling alley for her bowling buddies to help her celebrate. She was totally surprised.
We're going to celebrate, as a family, tonite. Another surprise for her.
I made her this fun card. J
Inside:-
Tools/Items:-
Cricut Imagine
Cricut Imagine Cartridge – Yummy (cake)
Cricut Cartridges – see below
Cardstock -- white (for the Imagine)
Glue – ATG; Zig Two-Way
Stickles -- Yellow (no name)
Rhinestones
Popdots
Cricut Cartridges:
Sweet Treats – 9 and 5 w/ candles
Paper Lace – Happy Birthday
Created the base card using the shape card technique
I figured out a while back. (I’ll post
that tomorrow.) Cut the cake (Image 6) at
7”, from the Imagine Yummy cartridge. Cut the image again but this time flipping it,
so the flipped image became the back of the card. Love this new technique!
The 9 and 5 w/ the candles (cut at 1.8”) are
from the Sweet Treats cartridge. The “Happy
Birthday” sentiment is from the Paper Lace cartridge and is cut at 1.5”.
What a blessing!! 95, active, surrounded by friends! We should all be so fortunate!
ReplyDeleteYour card is clever and beautiful! Love the stickles and stones!
Happy birthday to your mom!
