Happy Chick!

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! I am in heaven right now! It's only March 17, and it is supposed to be 76 degrees here today!!!! YAY! It has been in the upper 60's and lower 70's ALL week! Thus, I am in heaven...LOL! I have had my windows open with a wonderful breeze blowing through my house and all of my tulips are up 8 inches already. Ahhh, spring!
I have a card to show you today that I did for the BBTB2 challenge. This week the challenge is Bunnies and Chicks, use and bunny or chick on your project.
This entire card I did in CCR with my Imagine and all of the colors are from the Best Friends cart. The card base was cut by welding 2 scallop circles together from Cricut Craft Room Basics and so was the mat. I cut my all time favorite chick from Create A Critter and stamped the face with a Peachy Keen Happy Lashes face stamp.I did some inking and added a twine bow to her hair. The shell and nest were also cut from CAC. I embossed the shell with the Seeing Spots Cuttlebug Folder and inked the edges of the nest and did some pen work on it. I also did a stitching line around the outside of the mat, added some twine, and stamped the sentiment which is from Whimsical Designs Everyday Sentiments set.
I hope you all liked my card and thanks for looking! Have a wonderful St. Pat's day and weekend!

Peachy Keen Release Challenge #1

Good morning everyone! I attended the super fun Peachy Keen release party yesterday and they have a few challenges to go along with the fun. So this is the card that I created for challenge #1 which is to use at least 2 pattern papers.

I used CCR and my Imagine for the entire card. The card base was cut from Birthday Bash and I filled it with the pattern paper from Best Friends. I also cut the mats in co-ordinating colors. The cat on the line was cut from Meow and I filled the socks with pattern paper from Best Friends. I stamped the face with a Peachy Keen Wide Eyed and Bushy Tailed face stamp. The grass I cut by hand and stamped the sentiment which is from Whimsical Designs Everyday Sentiments. To finish I added a black stitching line around the card.

I hope you like my card and hopefully I will have 1 more posted before the day is over! Thanks for stopping in and have a wonderful day!

LFIF Recipe Card Challenge

Hello everyone! Here is the card that I made for Peachy Keens LFIF challenge. This time the challenge is to make a recipe card and use a Peachy Keen face.
I got my inspiration for the girl from Miss Emma at My Creative Time. She showed how to print and cut the girl from Imagine Best Friends and stamp the face. So that's what I did. I don't have an E2, so I just flood filled the body with a skin tone and printed and cut it.
I made a Z Fold Pocket Card by cutting a 12 X 4 1/2 inch piece of cardstock. I scored it at 6 and 9 inches. I then cut a piece of cardstock at 2 7/8 X 4 1/2 for the pocket on the inside. I used a Sampin Up Poka Dot stamp and stamped the paper and cut and puched a trim piece for the pocket. I cut the girls body at 4 inches and her hair, shoes, and head I printed and cut. The only reason I printed and cut her head was to get the pig tails. I trimmed off the pig tails, glued them to the head and stamped the face with a Peachy Keen Wide Eyed Kids stamp. For her clothes, I used the Cricut Craft Room! I was able to size the clothes to her body. You are able to combine Imagine cuts and regular Cricut carts....I LOVE this feature in CCR! So I used the dress from Once Upon A Princess and the hat from Paper Doll Dress Up. I used a white pen and did some highlights on her dress and added some white trim to her dress and the ball of the hat. The list was cut from Christmas Cheer and I hand wrote Cookies at the top and some squiggle lines for the writing. I printed out the recipe and mounted it to cardstock. The gingerbread men were cut from Paper Doll Dress Up and I used white and black pens for the highlights and stickles for the buttons. I added a tab by punching an oval shape, folded it in half, and added twine to the end and slid it into the pocket.  I also printed the inside sentiment from my computer and added Glossy Accents to the girls eyes.
I hope you survived my EXTREMELY long post and liked my card! Have a great day and thanks for looking!
I am going to link this up and Robins Creative Cottage in her linky/stamp release party!

Imagine Best Friends Card #5

Hello everyone! Here is the 5th and last card in my Imagine Best Friends card set. I used the stock square in my Imagine at 5 inches and filled it with a pattern from Imagine More. The girl was cut at 3.5 inches from Best Friends and I used Glossy Accents on her hair, eyes, and shirt. THe cat was cut at 2.5 inches and I used Glossy Accents on the nose and collar. To finish I tied a ribbon and stamped the sentiment which is from Scrappy Mom's Furry Friends set. I hope you all liked my BF card set and thanks for looking! Have a great day!

Imagine Best Friends Card #4

Hello everyone! Here is card #4 in my Imagine Best Friends card set. I used the stock square image in the Imagine at 5 inches and filled it with a pattern from Imagine More Cards. The girl and accessories were cut at 3.5 inches from the Best Friends cart. I used Glossy Accents on her hair, eyes, shirt, phone, and purse. I punched a strip of white paper and punched the edges with a border punch and added a ribbon to it. To finish I added this sentiment which was a new technique I tried. I didn't have a stamp that fit with this card so I printed it backwards on a piece of acetate and burnished it on to my card. I was really happy with the result! I did have to touch it up a little with my black pen only because this is textured cardstock. I hope you all liked my card and I will be back with the last card tomorrow.

Imagine Best Friends Card #3

Hello everyone! Here is the third card in my Imagine Best Friends card set. I used the stock square image for the background and filled it with a pattern from Imagine More Cards. The girl was printed and cut at 3.5 inches and I used Glossy Accents on her hair, eyes, and the image on her shirt. The dog was also printed and cut from Best Friends at 1.5 inches. I used Glossy Accents on his nose, eyes, and collar. I tied a ribbon and stamped the sentiment which is from an old set from JoAnn's. Thanks for looking and watch for card #4 on Wednesday!

Imagine Best Friends Card #2

Hello everyone! Here is the second card in my Imagine Best Friends card set. I just love these cute little girls! They're SO CUTE!
I cut and printed a square from the stock images in the Imagine at 5 inches and filled it with the background from Imagine More Cards. I cut and printed the girl at 3.5 inches from Imagine Best Friends and used Glossy Accents on her hair, eyes, and the bunny on her shirt. BTW, the outfit is from another doll and I used it on her instead of her original clothes. That one of the things that is so fun about this cart, you can change up the clothes and they will fit every doll in the book! How cool is that! I printed and cut the moped at 3 inches in real dial size and used Glossy Accents to highlight it. To finish I tied a bow and stamped the sentiment which is from Pink By Designs Be Mine stamp set. I hope you liked my card and I will be back tomorrow with card #3!

Imagine Best Friends Card #1

Hello everyone! I managed to get some things cut and print using my Imagine before I had to send it back and decided to do a card set. This is card #1 in a set of 5. I wanted to use these cute girls from Imagine Best Friends and make an everyday card set. So here we go! :)

I printed and cut the background from the square stock image in the Imagine at 5 inches and filled it with pattern paper using the Yummy cart. For the water I printed and cut a strip of co-ordinating colored paper and cut a wavy line using just a pair of scissors. I then embossed it with the Devine Swirls Cuttlebug folder and inked white over the raised images. I cut the girl at 3.5 inches from Best Friends and used Glossy Accents on her eyes, hair, goggles, and duck tube. The goggles and duck are popped up with pop dots as well as the suns face. The sun was cut at 1.5 inches from Imagine More and I used Glossy Accents on the top layer of his face. To finish I matted it to a 5 1/8 square card and stamped the sentiment. The stamp is from a set I picked up at JoAnn a long time ago. I hope you all like the first card in my set and will come back to see the next 4! Have a great day!
