End of the year gift for a teacher

My son helped design the card for his teacher

 

And I altered a tin box to hold a gift card and a few mini chocolates

Ride 'em Cowgirl

I am starting to get caught up on layouts for the kids' books.  This one is of my DD at about 18 months when she loved riding her horsey.  

 

 I used my the Mickey font for the "Ride 'em", PDDU for the hat and spurs, and Stone Script for the "Cowgirl".  My poor Cricut has glitter all over it still from that paper!  :) 

 

I pop-dotted the spurs for dimension.  You can't really see it in the pic, but they are cut from a metallic silver paper.  

 

I love the rope.  All I did was coil up some cording and tacked it on with some Crystal Effects

 

I chalked the hat for a little more depth, then pop dotted it too.

Lucy Card

My friend at work (who loves Lucy) is having a birthday!

 

I printed a picture of her in the Vitameatavegamin episode and used it as the centerpiece of the card.  I chalked her hair and colored her lips for some pop.

 

I had a birthday stamp set that included a quote by Lucille Ball so I used it on the front for the sentiment.
