Dino-Mite! Birthday Card

Hi Everyone...here is a card that I made for our nephew's 5th birthday!
The card base is cut out of yellow cardstock at 11.25" X 4.25".  Score and fold the card base at 3" and 8.5"

I cut the following items with my Cricut and assembled:
Palm Tree - Create A Critter - Pg. 51 at 2.75"
Dinosaur - Create A Critter - Pg. 50 at 3.25" (Shadow, Reg., Layer 2 & 3) and hid the face using the Gypsy
Grass - Paper Doll Dress Up - Pg. 78 at 1" (Shift/tab feature)
Volcano - Create A Critter - Pg. 50 at 1.5" (Shadow, Reg., Layer 2)


 The inside mat is cut at 5.25" X 4" and the Dino Mite Stamp is from My Pink Stampers Punnylicious Stamp set using Close To My Heart Orange Ink.


 Please leave any comments or questions.

Baby Tag Journal

One of my son's daycare teacher's is having a baby at the end of April so I wanted to make a little something special that my son can give to her.  This is a Baby Tag Journal using Tags Bags Boxes and More Cricut cartridge (This is not my original idea). 
I used my Gypsy to cut:
 6 Tags (page 90 of TBBM) at 5.65"
6 Folders (page 113 of TBBM - Blackout Feature) at 11.35"
2 Covers (page 113 of TBBM - Blackout Feature) at 11.35" - The covers are the same as the folders only you can cut it in half and only use the front half (the half with no score marks).
Once your items are cut out, score and fold on the lines provided and use a good permanent adhesive (I used scor-tape to adhere the folders).








 I used my cinch to bind the book but you can punch two holes on the left side and just use loose leaf rings.

Lastly, decorate and embellish to your liking!
Hope you enjoy and thanks for stopping by!
