Easy Cards and A Father's Day Freebie

So, today I have some quick and easy cards to share. I started with the black and white card kit from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff (Love this kit, so many possibilities for only $2.00!). For the Congratulations card, I started with a light yellow card base and attached the black and white background. Then I added a couple of shimmery velvet flowers from Imaginisce, put some black brads in the center, turned the photo corners into flower by cutting the tips off and adding a black brad to the center of it. I then printed out the ladybug digistamp in a very small size, colored it with my Bic markers, and attached it all to the card with pop dots.I put Glossy Accents on the ladybug for a realistic look, and I finished it off with the word "Congratulations" from the black and white kit, which I used my little red Cat's Eye ink pad on the edges of before attaching it to the card. For the second card, I attached the black and white striped background to a white card base, chalked the edges with powder blue chalk ink,and chalked the edges of the "Thank You" sentiment with the same powder blue chalk ink. I attached a light blue flower with a jumbo black and white polka dot brad and attached the thank you with pop dots (loving these lately). Two cards in approximately 30 minutes (not counting drying and cutting time). It may have actually taken less time than that-I did these while watching a movie on tv! Super easy, and I always love to have cards on hand! I think anyone that knows me might be offended if I sent or gave them a store bought card. These card kits are an awesome way to make an easy card-everything you need is included in the kit, you can use it over and over, and you can add as much or as little to it as you would like from your own stash! You can try out one of Lindsay's card kits for free, along with one of her awesome digistamps-just hop over to her blog here. Don't forget, Lindsay's Stamp Stuff is still running a sale through the end of May (a FREE digistamp of your choice with every $5.00 you spend), so hurry on over for your card kits and digistamps!

Now, my freebie for you today is a power drill svg for all your tool loving Dads and Hubbies(like mine). I cut the paper piecing to show how it should be put together-this would be great for a Father's Day card or layout.Enjoy-let me know if you like it!

Jeff Gordon logo...

Here's a simple 24 logo for all of you Jeff Gordon fans out there like me! You can find a Jeff Gordon car to cut out here: at Eleanor's blog . You can download my free svg here.
Just remember, these are for you personal use with your Cricuts only, please! Enjoy!

Another Nascar Svg for you...

This one is for all of you Dale Jr fans. I am more of a Jeff Gordon gal myself, but my son loves Dale Jr., so I did this one for him (and you, of course!). Here's The link:Dale Jr. Logo .

Cut out the white layer on Blackout mode in Sure Cuts Alot, then the black and red layers separately.

Got my Scrappin' Mojo Back!

I have been in somewhat of a scrapping funk lately, I haven't scrapped for about 2 months-until I finally broke the cycle last night. With a sketch from 52 Sketches...52 Weeks , and a digistamp ( cupcake with sprinkles ) from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff. Only $1.00- and it can be used so in so many different ways! For the larger cupcake in the corner, I printed it out on two different sheets of cardstock, inked

with chalk ink, decorated with pearlized puffy paint and stickles, and popped it up with pop dots.

For the smaller cupcake on the bottom, I printed on white cs, colored it with my BIC markers, cut it out with my Cutterbee scissors, and mounted it on top of two flourishes that I cut out using SCAL, one from Grungeboard (this didn't cut very well, even on multicut 4-can't wait till my Deep Cut Blade gets here!), and green pattern paper. I trimmed the rest of the grungeboard that didn't cut, and inked it with green chalk ink. Added some itty bitty flowers with gemstones in the center, a rub-on title which reads: "Birthday Fun...Make a Wish, it's your birthday!" It took a while but I had fun doing it!

Woo hoo, They say it's my birthday...

So, in celebration of my 29th bday, I have couple of Nascar svgs to share! I was able to do a nice layered logo (thanks to Dan99 and his awesome tutorial on color tracing). You can download the logo here .

I also did a set of racing flags, which can be cut in regular, then black out mode in SCAL.The file can be downloaded here . Now, I just have to find the time to work on my racing album!

A Sale at Lindsay's Stamp Stuff!

For the entire month of May, Lindsay's Stamp Stuff is running a promotion: spend $5.00, get a free stamp! Hard to beat that, huh? Just click on the link in my sidebar, and shop away! ;)
My card was made using the Daffodils In a Jar
digistamp (love daffodils!), and the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder. I sprayed the cardstock with Pearl Glimmer Mist, then used the rolling pin embossing method (damp cardstock works much better for this!).
