Pop of Color! Love You Card

Oh My Goodness. This is my most favorite card I have ever made! I love the white on white with a pop of red. I will definitely be trying this with other colors! Teal on teal with pink? I think yes!

Covering Chip Board Letters

Hey Everyone! I have a quick DIY project for you today! I made this for one of my best friends for her Birthday! She LOVED it! You could cover these more "maturely" and use as home decor. (Like your last name or a inspiration word)



Thanks For Stopping By!

Bright, Girly Zebra Birthday Card

Hello All!
This is my first blog post/video project in F O R E V E R! I have been super busy for the last 6 months and haven't gotten a chance to film a craft video. I really do miss it! I am going to work hard to get a video up at least every other week. Thank you all for sticking by!

Today's card is BRIGHT. I love zebra (and other animal) print. I think any young girl would love to receive this card! (I know I would!)



I used:
Cricut/Sure Cuts A Lot 2
Scraps (Bright yellow, lime green, and neon pink)
11 X 4.25 Black Cardstock
Scallop Edge Sissors
The usual- Adhesive/Sissors/Paper cutter

Stamped Lady Bug Card

Good Evening Everyone! I have been slaking on the tutorials (whats new? lol!) I really love making tutorials & the response I get from them, but the editing is what takes FOREVER, and causes me to slack. I have a few videos lined up, waiting to be edited, so be on the lookout for those. I also have a few SB layouts and other fun projects planned to be up within the next few weeks.

Cali's & My YouTube Birthday was yesterday! Two whole years of YouTube Tutorials? That's CRAZY! We are close to 200 Subscribers; which is AMAZING! Thanks to everyone who is subscribed to CraftyGalz and/or following my blog!

Today I have a video tutorial for a quick card. I used SCAL2 Software, but if you do not have SCAL2 or Cricut Design Studio (which would would using basic cartridges) a punch or circle cutter will do the same. I love this card. It turned out much better than I expected.

Pocket Card Series: Episode #1- I Love You Card

Hey everyone! Long time, No see! I have been SLACKING! hahaha. So, today I have started a pocket card series. This will be 7 episodes long and last a week. "Monday" & "Tuesday" will be uploaded today, and then until next Monday it will be one a day. Hopefully that made sense. It makes sense in my head.
So any way, here is today's card!

Zebra Invitations

Here are some awesome zebra invitations I made using Sure Cuts a Lot. I made them a while ago and forgot to share. These are the instructions. I love these!

Instructions-

1.) Find a good zebra print, just google zebra print or zebra background.

2.) Save it to your computer

3.) Import it into Sure Cuts A Lot using the 'AutoTrace'

4.) Size it down to the desired size.
5.) add a box to the bottom portion. Select both the box and zebra print and 'weld.'
6.) Add 2 thin boxes up the sides and a thin box on top. Weld all of the pieces together.
7.) Create a letter. Find/Make a scalloped circle. Insert the desire initial/monogram to the scallop circle. I used the font 'Curlz'
8.) Create another scallop circle of the same size & shape.
9.) Cut out the zebra print and the solid scallop circle in black, and the scallop circle w/ initial in pink.
10.) Use the same pink color for your base.
11.) Apply coordinating ribbon at the split of zebra print and the solid box.
12.) Apply the Zebra configuration & ribbon to the base.
13.) Glue the initial scallop circle to the blackscallop circle.
14.) Use a pop dot to adhere the intial scallop to the middle of the card.

Have a Great Day Card

So sorry about letting last week slip by without a video. I was super busy with stuff on Saturday and got a cold on Sunday. But I sat down and got a video done. I will try to have another up by the end of the weekend. Now that the major card giving holidays are over with for a while, it will be birthday and regular occasion cards and seasonal projects until the fall. 

This card is super simple...ribbon, a layer, and a sentiment! How easy!?! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this paper pack! It is AMAZING!

Masked Thanks Card

Hello Everyone! Today I am going to be making a Thanks Card, using a mask I made in SCAL2...It is super simple, just line up a bunch of circles and cut...I used regular copy paper, but I know some countries out there have mask paper that you can use, to keep everything in place. I used ink pads, but glimmer mist will work too!
Thanks for stoppung by!
