Robot Card


Hi!  This is a card I made today for one of my Crafty Pen Pal's son, who had his tonsils out yesterday.  Poor little guy!  She said he loves crafting with her and loves to look at all the blogs she follows and knew he would love getting handmade cards!  :)  It was the perfect opportunity to use my new B is for Boys cartridge that I got with my Cricut rewards!! 

The robot is cut at 3 1/2 inches.  I used some Recollections paper I had in my stash and some brads and Trendy Twine.  I printed the sentiment from my computer.

When my 4 year old heard I was making a card for a little boy who just had surgery she wanted to make one too!  To "help him get better"  :)


How cute is that!! :)

My Creative Time DT Entry :)


Hi!  This is a card I made for the DT call Emma is having at My Creative Time.  I just love Emma and her stamps and dies and think it would be such an honor and privilege to work with her.   I first discovered her on YouTube when I was trying to learn how to use my Gyspy.  She has a whole series of tutorials for new Gypsy users and without those videos I don't think I would be using mine today!  Anyway from there I discovered her blog and her wonderful stamps and dies.  I always  look forward to sneaky peek week and all her new releases.  

Anyway! :)  For this card I used Birthday Bash for the elephant,  he was cut at 3 1/2 inches, the balloon is from Create A Critter and it was cut at 2 inches.  The scallop circle and stitched circle are My Creative Time dies.  The sentiment is from My Creative Time's All Around Birthday Time set and the small heart in the center is from My Creative Time's Anyday Bingo &Crossword set.  The paper is from K&Co's Confetti paper pack.  I used Tim Holtz distress ink in Tea Dye to ink around all the edges and added a little glitter glue to the heart and sheer pink ribbon for a little sparkle! :)

What's Cookin?


Hi There!  Here is a card I made today, and by today, I mean ALL day today!! It was one of those cards that just wouldn't come together!  I made it to enter it in the Challenge over at Paper Play Time.  This challenge was Say it with Sentiments and must include buttons and bows. :)

The apron is from the From My Kitchen cartridge as well as the rolling pin and spatula.  The paper is some from my stash.  The sentiment was printed from my computer.

Thanks for looking! :)

Race for the Cure



Here is a card I made for the Cricut Cardz Challenge #93, Think Pink.  For this Challenge you had to make a card to support Breast Cancer Awareness.

I have a friend who is a survivor (ten years now! yay!) who recently lost her sister to breast and ovarian cancer.  This friend is an amazing woman who is doing all she can to get her story as well as her sister's story out there to help raise awareness.  She is doing a tremendous job at fund raising and is going to Race for the Cure sometime this month in Florida.  So I made this card in honor of her! :)

The shoes are from Rock Princess, I used the Build a Banner Kit from Emma at My Creative Time for part of the sentiment, the other part was printed from my computer.  I put lots of glitter on the sneakers and added some pink ribbon. :)

Thanks for looking!

Fall Card



Hi!   First of all I want to thank you all for following my blog.  I am new to this blogging stuff and am not sure what the protocol is for saying thanks but I just want you to know I enjoy and appreciate all your kind comments!  :) 

Now onto the card!

 This is a card I made for the Terrific Tuesday Challenge over at Scrappy Moms Stamps. This weeks challenge was to create a Fall themed project that incorporates teal and brown.   I had recently picked up some Fall-ish paper at a new scrapbook store I found (my poor husband!).  I had no idea what I would use it for, but I thought it was so pretty :)  I love Fall and all the colors, it was always my favorite time of year in Ohio but now living in Arizona I don't get to enjoy the changing leaves.  I miss that.  My daughter, who is 5 and was born here,  could not figure out why I would make a tree that color! lol! 

Anyway..... :)  The card is an A2 size.  The paper is from the Autumn Splendor collection by We R Memory Keepers.  The tree is from Simply Charmed (cut at 2 3/4"). The leaves are from Create A Critter (don't you just love that cartridge! it has everything on it!) The stamp is from Studio G, which they now sell at Walmart for 98 cents!

I have no idea what I'm going to do with the card seeing how I am married and
 fell for my Husband a long time ago! lol! 

Well thank you for stopping by :)

Froggie Card!





While looking at blogs I came across a challenge at BBTB2, the Challenge was to use the Frog from Create a Critter cartridge.  I have been needing to make a card with a frog on it for sometime now and this was the push I needed I guess!  That and seeing Jayne's cute cute frog card over on her blog:  jayne-designs.  If you have not checked it out,  you should , she is very creative  and very talented.  :)  I was inspired to actually get out my Cuttlebug and emboss! 

The frog and the lily pad and grass are all from Create a Critter.

Thanks for stopping by!
