Inside of card front view

Card Recipe:
Front panel of card was die cut using My Favorite Things Happy Birthday Centerpieces from Kraft cardstock then a sheet of silver glitter paper adhered underneath, orange marker applied to candle tips.
I used a black piece of paper for the inside as I really wanted the present to POP when the card was opened, I will use a white jelly roll or metallic jelly roll pen to inscribe it when the time comes. All paper is from my stash 

Thanks for looking Dreamerz, I hope you also take the time to pop over to
The Cutting Cafe Blog to see what other fun projects my fellow design team has created.

Have a Great Day

Masculine Birthday card

Good Morning Dreamerz,

Today is my Design Team project for the Cutting Cafe and our Theme this time was "Pinwheels" How fun right?! The Cutting Cafe has many Pinwheel cards to choose from and even a treat cup pinwheel set where you can add candy, money, or make into a fun shaker card, I will post links to these sets at the end of my post. 
Today I am bringing you a card that can be used for either a male or female but I am saving it for a male as finding a good masculine card is a hard task. 


Card Recipe:
For the Pinwheel Embellishment I took a very thin piece of cardstock 60lb and used distress inks all over the front and back trying to use the same color family as the hero arts ink pad colors as my guide, once I was happy I heat set the ink and then applied thin strips of silver washi tape to the front and back of the card stock. I uploaded the SVG From The Cutting Cafe to Cricut Design Space and cut 3 pinwheels, I will be using the other 2 on future cards. You can grab some super cute Pinwheel card patterns right here:The Cutting Cafe

For the base layer I stamped a piece of Neenah Solar Crest all over using a new stamps set from Jaded Blossom called Origami Fun using Hero Arts Ombre Ink pads in Mermaid and Lime to Forever Green turning the stamp as I went so the ink was hopefully never the same color on the cardstock. The Sentiment is also from Jaded Blossom and is from the set So Many Birthdays 3 lastly for the card base I die cut it using the Nested Rope Dies from Kat Scrappiness and added Nuvo Glitter Drops in Silver Moon Dust to the centers of the pinwheels.


I do hope you will pop over to The Cutting Cafe Blog and see what the rest of the Design Team has created with Pinwheels.

Until Next time Dreamerz,
Have a Great Day,
MaryAnn

Prancing Unicorn

Good Morning Dreamerz!

Today I have a Unicorn card to share with you (big shocker I know right? LOL) 
A few weeks ago one of my fellow DT sisters Lisa started a new challenge blog, so in support of this undertaking I showed her some blog love and did not even know there was a drawing for a prize pack.  Random.org picked my comment and I got the cutest papers, embellishments, and most stunning card in the mail. I decided to use those papers and some of the embellishments to create a card for this new challenge blog.  I do hope you will join in on the challenge with me. Don't forget to give their page a like and while you are at it like their DT pages also.  I am providing links after the picture for you to make it easy..


Card Recipe:
