Lucky Cat Hello Kitty Thank You

Lots of Thank You cards being made to be sent these days. This one is using the Hello Kitty  punch instructional sheets that were from a store in Hawaii called Creations Unlimited.  You would need that retired sitting Hello Kitty die made by Sizzix. Recollections Red and Brown card stock used for the card.  Brown card stock is embossed with the Lifestyle Crafts Cross Hatch embossing folder. Adhesive Fabric Washi paper was found at a local Japanese stationary store. I love how this card turned out.  The best way to ensure the card looks good is to select the Washi paper first.

Brother Pop Up Birthday Card

A quick and simple birthday card for my brother.  And,of course it has to be blue, and of course the argyle paper from Recollections is perfect with some blue mats.   I also found some white rub ons (celebrate word and stars)  that were used for the front. This is a A2 size card.

Here's the inside. This card template was something I had in my library I finally got to use.  The cut file is from the Silhouette on line store. I did make the argyle mat longer to cover the inside bottom (all you have to do is extend the template using the Silhouette program). More white rub ons are  randomly embellished.

 Here's a closer look at the "Happy Birthday". I made a separate Black contrast using my Silhouette computer program.  I also manually cut and added the blue background behind the raised mat.
