Giants Card

My brother and my dad are both obsessed with the New York Giants. So I thought it only fitting to create a card for my brother's 18th birthday that looked like a Giants' jersey. This was my first attempt at making a card in a shape other than a rectangle, and I was pleased with the result:

I made the card on my cricut, using Make the Cut...I found a shirt shape and welded them together to get the desired effect.

I gave it to my brother last night and he was just as happy with it as I was ;-)

World Card Making day...belated

I always really like the Halloween scrapbooking products, but I don't usually buy much of it since my husband and I don't usually do a whole lot for Halloween. This year, I bought a set of stamps from Unity stamps that were so cute I couldn't resist them. I made a set of 4 Halloween cards to send out to my family so I satisifed my Halloween craft craving.

I used the stamp and colored it in with a mixture of Copic and Zip markers. The Halloween paper is from a Die Cuts with a View stack that I've had forever and the background is just plain black cardstock.

This card is made with basically the same items, as are the next two:

I haven't made a lot of card sets, but it was fun to try to coordinate the cards and still make them unique.
