Graphic 45 Mother Goose birthday card

Hello Crafty Friends!

I don't make a lot of children's cards but I attended a very special birthday party that required one.  The birthday party was for a cute as a button one year old girl.  Oh- she was so adorable in her sweet white dress.  She just learned how to give hugs, too, which made the birthday party even better!  What a doll!

Graphic 45's Mother Goose collection was perfect for her card.  The white tent fold base was 4.25" x 5.5" and had a few layers of patterned papers applied as shown.  The stitched tag was created using Die-namics' die set MFT-375.

I realized after the card had dried that I forgot to adhere the patterned paper on top of the vertical yellow paper!  But, I don't think the wee birthday girl noticed.  ;)

The inside contained patterned papers on both faces.  The image of the girl is adorable.

The ivory paper had adhesive applied on only three sides so that a gift card or cash could be slid in.  I wrote my sentiment on the ivory paper.

The card was simple to make and created in under an hour.  Not bad for me starting from scratch as I usually get distracted in the craft room when I go through all my papers, dies and stamps!

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a happy crafty day!
Big Hugs,

Kraft CAS Whole Heart Card

Happy Wednesday!

My hubby and I celebrated our 6 year anniversary yesterday.  I can't believe it has been six years already! 

The card I made for him definitely celebrates the day.  The Eiffel Tower was a must because he proposed on the Eiffel Tower in Paris and we were married at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas.  Both events I will cherish always...not because of the locations but because I was fortunate enough to marry my best friend.  I don't want to get too sappy on you all so I will move on to the card. :)

The card base is constructed from Kraft paper.  The Eiffel Tower die is from Die-namics.  The sentiment "You have my whole heart my whole life" is from My Mind's Eye stamp set Miss Caroline "Howdy Doody".  The red lace is Recollections lace on a Roll.

The style of the card is Clean And Simple and follows along with this week's challenge at the Kraft Journal.

Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Hugs to All!
