Barbie Bag's

First I want to apologize for being MIA. It has been a very busy summer for us, and now that fall is apon us and the are kids heading back to school, I'm able to get some mojo back, and show off some cute things!

Second, I must give credit to Becky at http://inkingidaho.blogspot.com for this SUPER CUTE purse.
If you log onto http://www.inkingidaho-tutorials.blogspot.com you will be able to purchase this template and 2 others for only $3.95!

I have made so many of these cute purse's for family and friends, that I just had to share one with you.
They are the perfect size for a gift card, or in my case I filled it with mini Hershey Bars.

HOPE YOU LIKE IT!

Angry Birds Birthday Card

I had soooooooooo much fun Re-creating this card.
I saw a fellow Stampin' Up demonstrate this using die cuts and punches. Not having the 4" die cut, I had to improvise a bit, and I think I pretty much Scored with it.

Ingredients

Cricut Cart: Plantin Schoolbook, circle cut at 3 3/4". Heart cut on Italic at 2"

Stampin' Up! card stock: Crumb Cake, Real Red, So Saffron, White & Black

Ink: So Saffron & Black

Stampin' Up! Punch: Modern Label, 1/2" punch 

Directions

Place your Crumb paper in upper right hand corner of mat followed by the red. Cut. Remove ONLY THE CIRCLE of the Crumb paper, NOT the excess. Now take the red circle and overlap this about 3/4 down ON TOP of the scrap of Crumb. Hit your repeat button. This will complete another circle, but cutting a moon shape out of the red. Remove and overlap on the Crumb.

Cut 2 circles whita at 1 1/4" and 2 black circles at 1/2".

Cut 2 squares from the So Saffron at 1 1/2" and 1". Cut these at an angle and shade them with So Saffron.

Using the Modern Punch, cut 2 and then trim about 1/4" off.

Assemble everything to resemble this Angry Bird. I used pop ups on the blacks of eyes and the upper bill.

Is'nt he the Cutiest Angry Bird you have every seen? And SUPER EASY!

My wonderful and extremely supportive husband I have just recently celebrated our 16th Wedding Anniversary. Dave has always put me first and has always supported me in all my crazy ideas and my blonde moments, cause lets face it, I've had a lot of them.
