This was for my oldest son's best friend (they are in a band together).
Used computer for art and lettering then crumpled it, inked, glued to card, then dry brushed paints around it for an altered/grungy/teen look

this is for a friend's B-day= card and envie on the right (her initial is K)
Used my new Cricut http://forum.startascrapbook.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_cool.gif for the sentiment on front and also for "Happy Birthday" on the inside. The paper had everything on it already! I just added the sentiment circle, stiching, Startdust stickles on the butterflies and letters, and an extra butterfly cut out. I LUV how this came out! Hope you like viewing it.

I love your cards. What cartridge did you use for "hello friend"? I have the one that says Thanks - Base Camp I think.

Shari, these are great cards. I love the bright colors on the 1st 2. They are perfect for teenagers. The other cards are very nice too.

thanks everyone!

Cass- "hello friend" is from Beyond Birthdays. I really like that cartridge for all of its great premade sentiments; a little something for every occasion just about. And yes, the other is Base Camp. (I have spent my past 2 allowances on new carts since buying the Cricut April 1 http://forum.startascrapbook.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif, but I was able to get BB-day for $59 at WM and BC at J's for $40. Alas, no more money for the ones at M's this week http://forum.startascrapbook.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_frown.gif )
