Two birthday cards

I made these two cards for 2 friends of mine's daughters. One likes pandas; the other is often kiddingly called Fox.




Cartridges used are Create a Critter (for the panda and the phrase), Give a Hoot (for the fox, flower, and the paw border) and Life is a Beach (for bamboo).
Panda: 2'', Happy birthday: 1''
Bamboo: 3''
Fox: 2'', flower bush: 2''
Have a happy birthday: My Pink Stamper
The panda card mat was embossed with Seeing the Spots folder; the fox card mat, Spots and Dots.

A crab card

I made this for one of my friends' 3-year-old son who is in the hospital for a serious illness. I intended to make a whale card with the phrase Get Whale Soon, but the sentiment stamp sets are on their way to reach me. I changed to this with hope that he will get to play with his friends soon.



The crab is from Create a Critter, cut at 2''3/4, the phrase at 1''. The water border was cut using Give a Hoot cartridge.

Frog cards

My daughter is a member of a kindergarten's class called Green Frogs, so I have been looking for cartridges with (a) frog(s) on it. I just made these two for her.



The first frog is from Create a Critter; the second one, Give a Hoot. Both were cut at 2''1/2. So were the lotus leaves. I used the shadow for the front of the second card.

Hope you like them

4-season cards

Hello,

I tried making the autumn card first. And then the idea of doing the other 3 season cards came across my mind. Here are the results.

Spring and summer cards


Autumn and winter cards

Spring card:
Cartridges used: Stretch your imagination for the phrase (1''3/4) and the bird (3''), Give a hoot for the branch (1''1/2)

Summer card:
Cartridges used: Stretch your imagination for the bike (2''3/4), Create a Critter for the sun (1''1/2), Plantin Schoolbook for the grass (1''3/4)

Autumn card:
Cartridges used: Stretch your imagination for the tree and leaves (2''3/4) and the phrase (1''1/2), Give a hoot for the grass (1''1/4). There are 3 tulips in the grass, but I cut them off. I should have placed the dark green grass on the light green one so that it has the feel of autumn.

Winter card:
Cartridges used: Stretch your imagination for all. Card and frame: 4'', snowflakes: 1'' and 2''.

I might have listed some wrong measurements 'cause I did from memory. I will note them more systematically from now on.

Happy Thursday.
