I also have company coming tomorrow so I might be absent from blogging for a few days (I gotta get busy with the house cleaning :-( *sigh* I have a bathroom to scrub and believe me when I say with 3 little boys and one big one in the house it is NOT my favorite job!
OK...I did say this would be short, so here are the cards!
I used a ShortCuts frosted sheet for this first one.
I cut it down to size, embossed and folded it, then attached the sides with snaps. If you have a Crop-a-dile it works fabulously for punching holes for the snaps in the plastic. I embellished it with MME Bloom & Grow papers and die cuts.Next up is the ShortCuts Gift Card Folder.
For this I broke out the Cosmo Cricket Early bird, some buttons and ribbon. The stitching is faux btw, I was feeling too lazy to break out my machine. lol!
Remember you have one more day to play along with the current Caardvarks challenge for a chance to win some of your very own ShortCuts Products!
Have a great day and If I don't talk to you before...have a great weekend too!

I really need one of those gift card holders after seeing your AWESOME inspiration!
Oh no, Heidi, I am so sorry! Yellow jackets love our house. Last year I had someone come out and spray, there were 9 nests. There is only one right now and it's kind of out of the way, but they are scary looking. I don't like them.
These cards are awesome!!!
Sorry to hear about your hurt finger, I remember the yellow jackets from when we lived in Tucson, strange insects we saw there compared to the insects in Holland.
I like your card and gift card holder. What are the snaps you used?

These are adorable!! I hope your finger feels better. I haven't been stung by a wasp but I seem to get stung by bees all the time because of the gardening. I guess they don't like me!!
Have fun with your company!
These cards are soo darn cheery and cute!! I hope you didn't have to painfully create them with your bum finger :0(. And I have to laugh and say I am soo right there with you when it comes to cleaning bathrooms. Give me a gas mask, hazmat suit and a 10 foot long toilet brush and we'll talk. I have a stock supply of toilet seats in the closet . . . really! Have a great weekend with your friends :0)
Oh Heidi, sorry about your finger...that stinks...I hate all flying, buzzing & stinging things...I'm one of those girls that goes running in the opposite directions...screaming with my arms swinging around...okay, enough about that...sah-wheet shortcuts projects...love that card...cute, cute, cute and your gift card folder...a-stinkin-a-dorable...love, love, love it...chuckled about your bathroom comments...I think they should all sit. Have a great time with your company...
More lovely creations!
hope your finger feels better! (i haven't been stung much either, but i've found that baking soda + water PASTE applied to the sting usually helps... or something like that. i'd google it or something.)
anyway, i LOVE this card and your gift holder! super sweet :D and i TOTALLY thought that was real stiching... great job fooling me :D
and good luck with the cleaning. i know what you mean. i don't mind cleaning my OWN mess, but someone else's just seems grosser.
have a great weekend!
OUCH!! I'm sorry to hear about your injury. I've heard yellow jackets have one of the most painful stings. Oh, poor thing!! Well, these projects are most beautiful!! But, you know I LOVE everything you create! ;o)
Have a great weekend! Sorry about the house cleaning....bummer!!! ♥♥ Kay
These are beautiful, I especially like the gift card folder.
So sorry about your sting, I hope your finger feels better soon! We have a couple bee hives and I am so lucky I haven't got stung yet. Your cards are adorable and I love the gift card holder, it is so cute and creative!

These are just amazing!!!!! I love their products, too and so fun to see the gorgeous inspiration from you!!!
holy heck girl...you are on FIYAHHHH
Gorgeous creations Heidi. So sorry to hear about your finger. I gather a yellow jacket is a kind of wasp? If so, I know exactly how painful a wasp sting can be, much worse than a bee's. Hope your finger gets back to its old self soon.
Hugs
Desire
