Submarine vinyl, It's a Boy card and a Quilt!

Just a whole crafty kind of week this week with a few projects to show...

First up are the US Navy Submarine Dolphins that I made for my Dad who is a retired Navy captain...

found the graphic online and just imported it to Make the Cut and cleaned it up a bit.  I think if I cut it again I will work on making it a little more solid- all those scales were a PAIN!

Next up is a baby boy card for a baby shower of a friend...

Love this card for its simplicity.  I used a ready made card from Joann's and embossed it with my Swiss Dots CB folder.  The wording is from a We R Memory Keepers "Foil Glitter Flock" baby boy set- I used the brown flock for the rub on.  There are blue adhesive gems on the circle of words as well.

Last, but not least, is a quilt I made for my best friend with fabrics she sent me from Australia.

It is a small quilt but it is the first one I actually quilted myself on my regular Bernina sewing machine.  It took me forever to do (sorry S!!!) but I am so glad it is done now! :)

Soldier card and Monogram card with gift card holder...

Soldier card- simple cuts of 2 x 3 1/2" and increasing by 1/4 " for each blue and red layers, then by a 1/2" for the yellow.  A2 size- used a ready made white cardstock card for the base.

Cursive 101 cartridge for the letters and Ashlyn's Alphabet frame (Icon: J), yellow Stickles on the frame and Diamond Glaze on the top letter layers.  First time I had used the Diamond Glaze- I think I like the shine and smoothness it gives...just a pain to get the air bubbles out!  Not so sure about the frame and it's asymmetry- I like my symmetry, dang it!  But I decided to let the bit of whimsy stay there... 

This was a fairly large card for me- nearly 5 x 7.

Just a little gift card holder to go in the above card.
