Sew Many Cards design (birthday card & cake)

I made this for my daughter's 8th birthday using a SewManyCards digital stamp design. We made tie blankets & tie pillows at her party and Angela at SewManyCards custom made this "PERFECT" design for us. http://www.shop.sewmanycards.com/product.sc?productId=167&categoryId=55 I enjoy making her invites and this time I tried something new (I got the idea from another lady on SewManyCards, http://tannyps-rubbish.blogspot.com/2009/10/cardmakers-challenge.html ) I used the digital stamp design to make the card and the cake design. Just to let you know, from trying this myself, stay away from the gel icing, and I reccomend getting your icing ready before you start and invest in the stand by Wilton to hold your icing upright. I would think I was finished with the color and start with a new color and then have to try to mix and match the color again because I realized I had missed spots. UGH :( I will definately try this again but will do things a lot different. I was not as happy with this as I would have liked to be, but I plan to practice.

The brads on this card are made with an Itop from the felt that we used to make the tie blankets. I used a MS punch around the page for the scallop look.

Gypsy stand $2.00 at Walmart

These are at Walmart in the business supply area and are only $2.

"The Best" Gypsy case

These are made by CASE LOGICS (lrg case is the flat screen GPS travel kit & the small case is medium camera case)

I thought I would share my find with you all.

I am very pleased with this case and it protects my Gypsy very well. I bought the two cases separately because I wanted the option to not take my chargers and stand everywhere I go but I wanted to keep all my "G" parts together. In the larger case it stores the G and then on the other side at the top there is a pouch that stores the USB cord & cartidge connector. Below that there is a small pouch that the stylus fit into perfectly (holds several), then you have the velcro tab that opens this up to another compartment that holds the G Wanderings and Font cards, also holds my extra screen protectors and a wipe for my screen. In the smaller case it holds a car charger, wall charger and the stand for the G. These are made by Case Logic.

Just in time for Christmas!!!!

I purchased these (Clear Covers for the Cricut Expressions) for Christmas gifts for a very good friend and a teacher that taught my daughter last year, and yes.......one for me :)!!

They are AWESOME!! If you are at a loss for the perfect gift for someone who Scraps, this is it!!! Custom made for whoever you wish or just leave them clear and decorate them yourself. I am so happy that I found these and I know you will be just as amazed as I am with the quality and the price. Check it out at...... http://reniquedesigns.com/
