Layered Cake, Pop Up Bithday Card

Hi guys!
So, 2019 has begun, what are your new year's resolution? One of mine is to try and use as much of the supplies I already have and try not to buy new ones until I try them all at least once. I know, buying them and using them are not in the same category 😜.
News from now on: I will include a DXF file for those Silhouette Studio users that don't have access to SVG files.
I'm a fan of pop up cards and I wanted to begin this year posting this fun and easy card.

A very simple front panel and a colorful pop up inside

Faux Calligraphy with your Cricut Maker + Pop Up Card

Hello Everyone!

Ever since I made our Christmas Cards I'm obsessed with gold ink calligraphy, but I'm always afraid I'm not going to be accurate enough to do a big one word sentiment on a card (I should practice more). This time I tried to create a single word sentiment and add several lines to the downward strokes to make it look like dip pen calligraphy. 

This bold sentiment was so stunning in gold and masculine enough that I decided to create an inside fun card to go with it.

Revisited Argyle Sweater Card With Real Stitching

Last year I made a similar card, but it had faux stitching made with a white gel pen.
This one has real stitching instead. Don´t judge me, I´m not good at hand sewing, so if you think this card could do better with a different sewing technique, please let me know.

Circular, Mother's Birthday Shaker Card, English and Spanish

Today is my mom's birthday and I decided to make her a Circular card, I had never made one before -I think- , and I loved the result very much

Around the Sun Spinning Card - English and Spanish.

This year, people have been using the phrase "a journey around the sun" to congratulate others on their birthday a lot.
Now, giving my brush lettering practising and the fact that my friend Ricardo always expects an awesome card, I came up with an idea that combines, Faux brush lettering, the popular quote and a spinning card.

A Century of Lanterns - Lighting a Birthday Table.

Kirigami (Pop Up) Star Destroyer Card - English and Spanish Version

I went to see Star Wars The Force Awakens a couple of weeks ago. I don't know if you guys have that technology in your movie theaters, but 4DX show rooms are the best! (moving seats, water, smell, lights and so much more, it is like a Disney ride every time)
Rant apart, I was so moved by it that I wanted to create a card with a Star Wars theme and I wanted it to POP, so I designed this Kirigami (pop up) Star Destroyer card.  If you don't know what a Star Destroyer is... congratulations, you are not a geek like me... lol!

Tri fold Mom's Birthday Card

Hello!
It's been so long since my last post that I almost forgot how to do this.

I traveled to Japan and got back with a whole bunch of ideas and inspiration for crafting. I also had to process all 5000 photos to make my vacation photo album and I also had to finish writing my travel journal in full color. Soon you'll fin out what I'm working on.

This card has nothing to do with it, though. I made this card last January for my mother.

I  don't have the pictures for this card, but the files are in english and spanish for you to choose.

Asahi (Rising Sun) Birthday Card - English and Spanish.

So, yesterday I went to a friend's birthday party. He practices Aikido and he is a black belt Aikidoka . The first thing that popped into my head was an Aikidogi (Aikido uniform), [I'm googling all these names, there's no way I'd know all this]. At a point the whole clothing thing was discarded and I ended up with a japanese rising sun design. So, here it is.
