Wedding gift

This is a tile I made for my Brother in law and his bride. It is similar to the past tiles I made, except I decided to try to use regular paper for my picture instead of tissue paper. It worked beautifully. They really liked their gift. I think it turned out really nice.
I printed the picture out on my computer using regular computer paper and trimmed it to the size I needed. I cut all the lettering out using Wall Decor and more. I used the gypsy to line it up and size it to my liking. The hearts in the corner are also from Wall Decor and More. I used cardstock to cut all the letters and hearts out. I then adhered everything to the tile so it wouldn't move while I was sealing it. I then used Mod Podge to seal the tile.
I love making these tiles. I think they make great gifts and they are very inexpensive to make.
Thanks for looking.

All Star Card


This is the birthday card I made my nephew, who happens to play almost all sports. I used the Potpourri cartridge for the All Star saying, which I used cricut markers to write on the banner with. I used the Everyday Paperdolls for all the sports items. I also used the cricut markers to write on the Happy Birthday. I first cut it out as a shadow, and then used the regular "cut" with the markers. I hope you like it. Thanks for looking!
