"UR A GEM" card

Here is a card I made today for my Mother-in-law for Mother's day. We didn't get to visit her on Mother's day, so we are going to see her this weekend. I hope she likes it.
All the papers, except the card, is from the scraps. The jewel cut is from "Once Upon A Princess" cricut cartridge, "UR A GEM" is from Cricut Classic Font cricut cartridge and I welded it together on my gypsy. The ribbons are, once again, from a bag my dear sister gave me.

I glittered the white part of the gem and ran the purple paper through my cuttlebug using the swirls embossing folder.

Here you see I layered the two ribbons. I love those colors together.
I popped the gem up for a little dimension. I left the inside blank so I can hand write a little note, but I'm thinking I am going to put a piece of the green (same color as the sentiment on front ) on the inside to write it on.
Thats all for today, thanks for stopping by. Hope you liked it. Have a blessed day.

Thank you card

Here is a card I made using some scraps from other projects. This is probably one I'll keep in my stash for when I need a card quickly. It is a pretty simple card. The ribbon is some from a bag of scraps my sister gave me, the flower was cut from Sweet Treats cricut cart.
Front of the card.

Here you can see the ribbon has a lighter color on one side.

I made some pop strips out of some scraps to pop the flower up a for a little dimension. I;m thinking I cut the flower at 2 1/2". The base is 4 3/8" x 8 1/2 ( I think ). LOL

This is the sentiment on the inside. This was a stamp I got at JoAnn's a while ago in the dollar bins.
Well that's about all for now. Like I said all the papers were from the scrap pile so I'm not sure whay stacks they are from. Thank you for stopping by today, hope you liked my card. As always, I love to read your comments so feel free to leave some.  Hope you have a blessed day.

1 page LO

Well, I didn't get a chance to send this in to PC, so I'll show you what I made.
Not real fancy, but think I'll end up using it for my daughter in a few years.

All the papers, except the polka dotted paper, are plain cardstock. I think it is from (DCWV) Nana's Kid's stack (polka dot paper). I used some pink sheer dotted ribbon and a glitter brad.
I popped up the party hat and used some stickles in a couple of the "dots".  I think the cuts came from Doodlecharms cricut cart. The "Happy Birthday" and "5th" came from classic font cricut cart.
Thats all for now, I'll have to take pic's of my other LO and get it posted later this week. Thanks for stopping by, hope you liked it. As always, love to see your comments!
Have a wonderful day and God bless!!
