Cheetah Birthday Card


Hey everyone! I have so many friend birthdays coming up in the next month I wanted to make cards for them! This one was designed for my friend who loves Cheetah : )


Heres a list of supplies I used for the card! And up above is a visual list. : )

Stampin' Up! Corner Rounder
Stampin' Up! Word Window Punch
Stampin' Up Modern Label Punch
Stampin' Up! 3 Hearts Punch
Scallop edged scissors
Kraft Cardstock
Creme Cardstock
Black Cardstock
Patterned Paper (Cheetah)
Creme Ribbon
White Gel Pen
Black Ink
Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set

Enjoy!!


Here I started with my Kraft cardstock base and its a standard size at 4.25x5.5. Then if you can see up above I marked with pencil on the creased side about .75 on either side. Then I cut the patterned papper to fit between the marks. I cut the Cheetah at about 3.5 and rounded the corners on the right side top and bottom of the card base and Cheetah print.



I punched out black hearts with my Stampin' Up! 3 Heart Punch, and Punched out black with the Modern Label, and creme with the Word Window Punch. I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment in black on the creme cardstock. I added dimensionals to the creme cardstock and 3 hearts.


I trimmed black cardstock strip to size of the card, .5x4.25. Then I trimmed it with my scallop border. I adhered the Cheetah paper to the base and the closer to the bottom of the Cheetah paper I adhered the scalloped paper. Here I cut into the crease of the card with scissors so I could thread my creme ribbon.


Adhere the ribbon to the back of the card front and adhere the black hearts and sentiment. Lastly I added some white stiching to the side of the cheetah paper. I hope you enjoyed this card and tune in for some more ideas! Keep Scrapin!

Card Design Book

Hey everyone! I just decided to make a new Design Book for my card and scrapbook designs! On the bottom are step by step procedures! Enjoy! : )

These are the supplies I used minus the Martha Stewart Scoring Board, and adhesive. I have here a chip board postcard, 4 1/2 x 6 1/2 light blue, white, and black cardstock from Hobby Lobby. Then I used some Chipboard black letters, Stampin! Up corner rounder, Cuttlebug, and Swiss Dot Embossing Folder, Hole Punch, not shown in this picture is the binder clips measured 1", and black organza white dotted ribbon! : )


Now, the chipboard postcard measures, 4x6 so trim the sides of the light blue cardstock by 1/2 an inch. Then take the Stampin! Up corner rounder and round each corner of the blue paper. Adhere this to the chipboard.


Next trim the black 4 1/2 x 6 1/2 cardstock to 3 3/4 x 5 3/4 inches. And use your corner round to round the edges. Also cut the white  4 1/2 x 6 1/2 cardstock to 3 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches.


Place the white cardstock inside the Cuttlebug Swiss Dot Embossing Folder and run it through the Cuttlebug.



Adhere the black cardstock to the blue side of the chipboard. Then Tape the ribbon in the middle front and back. and leave a long tail at the end. The ribbon should be about 8-10" long. Adhere the white embossed cardstock on top of the ribbon.



WATCH OUT! Your going to want to make two of them for the front and back : ) Were making a book! Don't forget it! ; )
Then hole punch the two sides of the covers.



Arrange the black chipboard letters into the phrase of your choice : )! I just thought this was pretty appropriate for a Design book.



I used regular printer paper for the filler paper and cut it down to size, and I then hole punched them to fit the book. I used the binder clips to hold it together. If you can see at the side of the book I used the extra ribbon to tie the book so it doesn't fly open in my purse! Please enjoy, comment, and contact me if you have any questions! Thanks have a great day! : D
