"R" Ryleigh & "R" Reed

This set of letters were made for some friends with twins.  They are fraternal twins, a boy & a girl.  The green was added to both letters to tie in the room color, since they share a room.
Ryleigh:  Pink & Sage Green, Girly
Reed:  Blue & Sage Green, Variety of Sports
I used my Gypsy and Cricut to design & create these projects.

Hannah's Skate Party Invitations

I made these invitations from a very good friend's daughter.  Not to mention Hannah is one of my daughter's very best friends.  When they said that she was having a skate party, I immediately knew I wanted to make the invitations.
I did not have a cartridge with a decent skate on it so I put my Gypsy to work.  I used the hockey skate from the Sports Mania cart.  I hid contours & cut off some pieces.  I added circles from the George & Basic Shapes cart for the wheels.  I welded the circles to the hockey skate to make the shadow & base layers.  Then paper pieced the top layers together.  I adhered the skate with pop dots to give it some dimension.  The graffiti style "skate" word came from the Dude (Lite) cart.

Wall Letter: E - Elise

Here's yet another wall letter.  This one is for a little girl that is 8 years old.  She likes soccer, dogs, & butterflies.  Her room is a peachy color.  This is the letter that I came up with to represent her.  Sorry the pic doesn't show some of the detail.  I used water colors to tint the flowers & give them some shading & dimension.  I also added some Glossy Accents and MS Fine Crystal Glitter to the edges of the flowers to make them look dewey & sparkle.  Also the eyes on the dogs are glossy too (the dalmatian's don't even show up in the pic).
Details:
Cartridges Used:  Accent Essentials & George & Basic Shapes (Flowers), George & Basic Shapes (Name), Everyday Paper Dolls (Grass & Brown Dog), Create A Critter (Dalmatian & Butterflies), & Sports Mania (Soccer Ball)

Another "A" for Alyssa

Ok so my friend that wanted the A for her niece Alyssa asked me to make another one. Alyssa's grandmother loved it & wants one for the picture wall where she has all of Alyssa's pictures hanging. What a great idea. So here is Alyssa's extra A.
Details:
I used my Gypsy & Cricut to decorate this letter.
Cartridges Used: A Child's Year (Fairy), Gypsy Wanderings (Butterfly - bottom), Graphically Speaking (Butterfly - top), Ashlyn's Alphabet (Name), Accent Essentials & George & Basic Shapes (Mini Faux Prima Roses)
Homemade glitter glue for swirls & accents on cuts.
