Day 386

This card has the same saying as an earlier card. For the silver background  I used Quickutz foil and embossed it using the Cuttlebug. It makes it look more like a guy card. :O)

Day 385

Chris from www.visualdesignsbychris.com has some cute cutting files and this is one of them. She had a card made with the Happy Birthday To You on it, I just used the Happy Birthday to you, cut it from white vinyl, and made 4 cards in about 5 minutes. These are 2 of them. Thanks Chris for a quick and easy card!

Day 384

I was looking through old magazines and found a card I liked and decided to duplicate it. The printing was done with the KNK, the cutting was with the KNK also. I changed it just a bit, but it sure was fun to make. The picture is of the card on top of the magazine page with the card. The KNK is so amazing.

Day 383

This card was made using the KNK pen tool, a cuttlebug border embossing folder, the cuttlebug piercing tool, and a Martha Stewart border punch.   I started with the words, then embossed, then pierced, the used the border punch. It isn't the most perfect card but I like it anyhow.

Day 382

My Grandson Gavin loves to take pictures. When I decided to get a new camera, I gave him my old camera. And then, I made him his own photo album. :O) The picture of the front is one he took of himself. The lettering is just font matted and cut with the KNK. The paper is coredinations.

The picture on the right is some "art work" that Gavin made  using card parts. He is 4, what can I say.

He loves watching the KNK work and when I made something with the pen he said "That's cool Gama...it's super cool". I love that kid!

Day 381

Happy Anniversary to my baby girl #1 and my favorite son-in-law. My daughter Jodie was my one and only baby girl for 11 years until her sister Tashja joined the family. She would prefer to keep that baby girl spot, and so I let her. :O) She now has a baby girl of her own and of course she is mom to my favorite little boy, Gavin. Her husband Dan is such a nice guy, we are blessed to have him as part of our family. Not sure how blessed he feels.:O)                                                                         I really like this card! The Always and Forever is a My Vinyl Designer file. I had to tweek it a bit to get it to cut right, maybe because it is cut  smaller than it was intended. I outlined all of the words once just to thicken them up a bit. They were cut from gold vinyl using the KNK.

Day 380

The exterior of the barn/garage is done!!! We are really pleased with the way it turned out. Now, on to the inside. The goal is to get the downstairs done this year. We just had a soil sample done, the first step in getting a permit to put in a septic system. There will be a full bath in the lower level. Our next step is to complete the wiring, then the plumbing, and then insulation, walls and ceiling.  Seeing this is all done in our "spare time" it make take a while.
