Pocketful of Sunshine Card

Howdy,

I have a co-worker whose birthday is tomorrow. She is a big fan of sunshine and sunglasses so when I saw this idea I had to make it for her.

Pocketful of sunshine is here:

I made all of the pieces in my Silhouette Cameo. All of the black lines are made with Silhouette Sketch Pens and then the shapes were cut out. The "Pocketful of sunshine" saying was written with Sketch Pens too. I layered blue and yellow paper for a background.

On the inside:

I stamped "Happy Birthday" and layered it on pink paper because that is my co-workers favorite color.

Boat Card

Hey Hey,

My co-teacher's birthday is coming up. She likes quite a few things, but I had already made her a snowmobiling card, cowgirl boot with hat because she loves to line dance, and then a saloon door card. In the summer she spends a lot of time on her boat so I made her this boat card:

I started by creating the waves using the technique I found here. I used the same distress ink colors as in the link. I then made the boat using my silhouette cameo. I put acetate on the back for the windows. I used my silhouette sketch pens to write the "It's Your Birthday..." I attached the pieces to the card and then used my sketch pens for the saying on the inside as well.

The inside says:

I put the inside saying on a blue background to help match the front of the card.

Guitar Card

Hey all,

My boyfriend's birthday is coming up and he is the hardest person for me to do anything for. He likes to play guitar (although he hasn't played recently) so I made him this card:

I cut circles from brown, black, and white cardstock using my circle cutter. I also cut a circle on the front cover of the card base. I used super thin metal wire that I took from ribbon that I bought from Big Al's a few years ago as the strings of the guitar. I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the white piece on the bottom and the guitar pick. The words on the pick were written with my Silhouette Sketch Pens.

I stamped Happy Birthday through the hole on the card base so that it is seen on the outside and the inside of the card when opened.

Here is the inside:
