Birthday Banner

I really, really, really wanted to finish my Birthday banner for Master J. in time to link it with last week's challenge on the Bitten By The Bug 2 but... life and log splitting got in the way!

Anyway, here it is and it was so much fun to make.  Like many a 3 year old, Master J. is fascinated with transportation from cars, trains, planes, to helicopters and, of course, Grandpa's tractor! 

The vehicles come from the Boys Will Be Boys cart and I used the rounded square and its shadow on the helicopter cut, to make the banner pieces.  The traffic signs are from the Cars cart and because they are so small, I used the 'print then cut' option on my Explore.   Master J.'s name was cut from the Mickey font - lovin' that font!

Happy Birthday Master J.   You are not allowed to get any older than 3.  Seriously.  Grandma has spoken.

 Thanks for visiting with me today.  : )  Christine

A Print Then Cut Card

We are off on our travels tomorrow and I needed to make a quick card to encourage someone who has just had surgery. Thank you ProvoCraft for Print Then Cut!

The background comes from the Animal Antics cart and the cars come from the Disney Cars cart.  The cars are pop-dotted for dimension.

  I think it turned out cute!

 Right, back to the packing!  Thanks for visiting with me.  : ) Christine

Print Then Cut is Here!

Provo Craft released the much-anticipated Print Then Cut upgrade for the Explore last night, when the East Coast was fast asleep!  All I can say is that every crafter needs this machine.  The accuracy of the cuts is amazing! 

So here is my first project, waiting on the 'fridge, for Master J when he comes on Friday.  Sorry about the pictures.  :(  It's not easy taking photos of a stainless steel 'fridge!

Thanks for visiting with me today.   I'm off to 'play' again.  This time - Hello Kitty!   : ) Christine
