Birthday XOXO...Throwback Thursday 8

I finally had the time to participate in Emma’s Throwback Thursday Challenge. I came across her site a few weeks ago, but I hadn’t been able to make the deadline until NOW!!! The Throwback Thursday Challenge focuses on the older (not used as often) Cricut cartridges. This week’s challenge was to create a project relating to birthdays using the Cricut Celebrations cartridge.

Of course, I did a simple card (it’s what I do most)… The black scalloped layer is the shadow feature on the #5 button (page 86 in the handbook). The embossed white layer is the blackout feature on the #9 button (page 90 in the handbook). The three birthday hats are welded cuts from the {hat2} image (page 103 in the handbook). I added a little bling to the hats with the iRock. So glad I had the chance to participate.

Two Years Young... Birthday Card

Here’s a little birthday card that I made for a friend’s son who is turning two. I used the Mickey and Friends Cricut cartridge for the car and I used the Celebrations cartridge for the balloon (it’s been a long time since I used that one!). I typically struggle with kiddie cards and this time was no different! In the end, I like the finished product. Hope you do too.
