Money Holder

Hi All, here I am again to share with you an easy money holder you can make if you ever want to give someone money as a gift.

First, you cut out a sheet of paper at 7 x 7". You will then score the sheet at 1 1/4 and at 4 1/4. Cut out a strip at 7" x 1". If you'd like to add a little decoration, you can cut another strip of paper at 1" x 7" and punch the border. Adhere it to the back side of the top tab and you're all done! I added a sentiment to the front.


Happy crafting!

Project - Thanksgiving

This is an adorable Thanksgiving project I made with my mother. We had so much fun!

The pouch was cut from the Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cartridge. I actually cut out two tags and cut the rounded end off of one of them. I used the gypsy to hide the hole at the top of the tag. We then, used the sewing machine to stitch the two pieces together.  This creates the pouch.

I cut the turkey from the Celebrate with Flourish cartridge. I used adhesive to adhere the turkey onto the pouch. We used real maple leaves from our trip to Washington D.C. These turned out so cute!


This is another picture with all the pouches finished and ready to be set on the table.

Project - Picture Frame

This is another picture frame decorated using my cricut. I made it for my nephew who just adores trains.

I purchased the frame from Ross.  The train was cut from the Beep Beep cartridge. The letters for the name were cut from the Mickey Fonts cartridge.  It is very simple but it turned out so cute! It was perfect to hang up in his room.

The inside of the card was stamped using the same set of clear stamps.

Card - Baby Shower Invitation

This is such a cute invitation. This is a diaper baby shower invitation using the CTMH Artiste cartridge. (If you don't already have a CTMH consultant, please visit my site at: craftsbyprdiva.ctmh.com)

Open the flaps and you get the party information. I used a rubber stamp for the insert.

Card - Birthday

I'm back with another birthday card. This card was so much fun to make. I didn't have to use the cricut to make it! If you have a paper slicer, it makes the card so much easier and faster to make. This card is 6 x 6". I had some pre-made flowers that I combined and put a brad in the middle to keep them together. The stamp is from the Close To My Heart (CTMH) Artiste Collection. It turned out beautifully together. (If you don't already have a CTMH Consultant, you can visit my site at: craftsbyprdiva.ctmh.com)

I used the Tim Holtz Walnut distress ink pad to distriss all the edges. I put some ribbon and lace ribbon around the second and third layers. The colors balanced out wonderfully.


Thank you for your visit. Happy crafting!
