BBQ Invite














Hello everyone! Here is the invite I made to enter into Bug Bites Bug Hop Grillin' and Chillin' Challenge. Your project must include 1 Cricut cut and a "critter" found on the blog hop projects. For my invitation I made a pocket card. I cut the grill from Everyday Paper Dolls at 2 inches and added Glossy Accents to it. The hot dogs were cut at .75 inches, the burger at 2 inches, and the watermelon at 1 inch from Simply Charmed. The BBQ was cut from Robots at 1 inch and I printed the inviation information from my computer. To finish I did some balck stitching and for my critter I drew an ant on top of the watermelon. I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend! Take Care!

Terrific Tuesday Life's A Beach






Hello everyone! Here is the card that I did for Scrappy Mom's Terrific Tuesday challenge. This time the challenge is to use Life's A Beach. I cut the palm tree at 4 inches, the chair at 3 inches, and the crab at 1.5 inches from Life's A Beach. I highlighted them all with black and white pen and added Glossy Accents to the crab's eyes. For the sand I just tore a piece of kraft cardstock and stamped the sentiment which is from Scrappy Mom's Furry Friends set. To finish I embossed the background with Spots N Dots and tied a piece of twine around the side. I forgot to take a picture of the inside of the card where it says "Go to the beach" which I printed off my computer. I hope you all are having a great day and have a fun and safe Memorial Day weekend!

18th Birthday Card















Hello everyone! It is my Niece's 18th birthday and this is the card that I made for her. I also had Card Creations In More By C's So Saturday challenge in mind which is Wobbles, Pop's, or Shakes. By the way, did you know that I won for the month of April? And I won the Disney Pooh Font Cricut cartridge! If you've never played in her challenges, they are every other Saturday and they are LOTS of fun! This month the prize is a Your Story Photo Maker! So thanks Christine and I hope you will participate too!
For my card I cut the girl from Rock Princess at 4 inches and pop dotted her to the card. The 18 circle was cut from George and Basic Shapes at 1.5 and 1.75 inches and the 18 was cut from Robots at 1 inch. I added gems around the circle and mounted it to an Action Wobble. The background was embossed with Spots N Dots Cuttlebug floder and I added 3 gems to the bottom corner. To finish I tied a ribbon and stamped the sentiment. I hope you all are having a great day! Thanks for looking!

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.
