Safari/Jungle Party Invitation

I have decided to host my daughter's birthday party at home again this year.  She has decided on a safari theme.  I needed a quick invitation to make as I am super busy with work, graduations, and extra curricular activity schedules, therefore, I went the monkey on the Create a Critter 2 cartridge.  I cut the monkey at 9 inches.  At first I was not going to the shadow, but I tried one and decided it made the invitation look more finished, especially on the back.  It also allowed more room for the party information on the back.  I typed the party information on the computer, printed it on white paper, and glued it to the back.

Spring/Easter

It is my son's birthday during the Easter weekend so I made the following card for him.  I used the Cricut cartridge Simply Charmed for the bunny, and of course Peachy Keen stamp for the cute face.
