Piece of Cake Hybrid.....

Hello and Happy Monday Everyone! I hope you all had a

fabulous weekend! Mine was busy of course! LOL I did a

lot of cleaning and freezer cooking for the week! Have any of you

ever tried Freezer cooking? It's when you cook or prepare everything

then freeze it and pull it out when you need it for a quick meal or

breakfast. I do it every once in awhile and I wanted to get some done

for this week so I'm not overloaded by the end of the day and still have to

stand in the kitchen and prepare a meal! Soooo I cooked Breakfast Burritos

& McTheresa Sandwiches! The McTheresa's are my version of the MCD's

English Muffin Sandwich! I made about a dozen of each so my kids can

get a hot breakfast quickly and I know what went into their stomachs! :o)

I also precooked hamburger for Crock Pot Chili & Prepared my Birthday

meal! Chicken Enchilada's! YES.... I Cooked my own Birthday dinner!

You didn't think my lazy family would do that for me did you? LOL
Apparently I'm the only cook around here even though I taught my

kids to cook! Soooo YES I premade my Birthday Dinner..... All I'll

have to do is put it in the oven on Wednesday! And I'll have a lovely

dinner that I know what went into making it! tehehehe

Any who.... I guess you're not here for my freeze cooking methods are you???

Since this is my Birthday week I'll show you a Birthday Card! :o)

I designed this myself in My Digital Studio from Stampin' Up!

These were Embellishments from the "Piece Of Cake" Download CD

I got from Sale-A-Bration, where you spend $50 and get something

for free! I Love anything FREE! Especially Digital Downloads! :o)

Here's an example on how I created this....

Here is the First page I did....  It shows the design I made

The white Card stock was printed with the Happy Birthday Digital Stamp

on it and the 2 gifts (pg. 2)..... I always make 2, then I flip my Card stock

and print the other 2.... The reason I don't print all 4 at once is because I

want to make sure I have enough room for it to cut 4 equal parts...

sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't so I just stick with the print 2 out first method.

Then on another page (pg. 3) I printed out the gifts

again and the banner and the Blue Sunburst. Then I cut these pieces out by hand and

put them on the white card stock. 

As you can see I cut the gifts out and then I pop them up over the

Digital printed image to add some dimension!

I hope this display helps you see a little better as to what I do when creating

my Digital Hybrid cards!

  

It really was fairly simple to do and quick once I got my design

figured out.... I usually work with 3 pages to make my Hybrid cards.

1 for the design, 2 for the base of the design, 3 for all the embellishments

I want to cut out and add to the card.... Sometimes they aren't that simple of course...

You know... like when you can't make up your mind on what to use...

I have soooo many downloads to choose from that sometimes that's what

takes the longest! LOL Oh yeah.... Like I'm the ONLY one with LOTS of

Digital Images! LOL

I'm gonna put this in a couple of Challenges over at:
Paper Playtime - Make a Birthday Card & Include a Sentiment
Go Fish Challenges - Anything Goes


Well I hope you like my card and come back

tomorrow for my Scrapbook Tuesday Layout! Until then....

Have an AWESOME DAY!!!!
