Kate's ABC cartridge~Welcome to the nest!

Hello Everyone,
I have to say this Kate's ABC cartridge has got to be right at the top of my favorites!!  I just love all the cuts and the images are just soooo sweet. You gotta check it out!!!

My card is 5 1/2 and base layer is 5. I used the Kate's ABC cartridge to cut the house at 4" and the layers. The owl at 1 1/2 plus layers, the cats at 1 3/4. The "Welcome to the nest"  is cut at 1". I used Elegant Cakes cartridge for the flourish. The grass was cut with fringe scissors by Martha Stewart, buttons from  my stash and lace ribbon from SU.

Create a Critter Card~Wishing you a very happy day!

Hello Everyone,
I want to share a quick card I made for over at Stacy's~Lovethatbug. She is doing a Create A Critter series and I thought it would be fun to join in. Super simple card: My card is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 which I embossed using the cuttlebug~dots embossing folder.  I cut the alligator at 3 3/4 plus the layers and embossed using the cuttlebug~tiny bubbles folder. I cut the brown layer at 2 x 5 and embossed with the dots folder to layer the alligator on. The 2 layers on the bottom are 1 x 5 pieces that a tore to give it a little different look and attached ribbon from Michael's. The sentiment~Wishing you a happy day is from Hero Arts. Kinda cute, ha?

Always & Forever Shadowbox

I wanted to share this shadow box that I made for a friend of mine who's daughter just got married about 3 weeks ago. It was one of my projects I made last weekend during our scrap retreat/swarm. I have made a few of these before and they make beautiful gifts. I hope I inspire you to try making one~they are a lot of fun and the end result is great!!

I started with 12 x 12 black paper as my base. The base layer I used patterned paper cut at 11 3/4 x 11 3/4. I wanted to format around a 5 x 7 photo so I cut a mat size 5 1/4 x 7 1/4 in cream,  a 5 1/2 x 7 1/2 in pink and 5 3/4 x 7 3/4 in black. Attaching a satin ribbon bow around the cream layer. I then cut a mat size 6 7/8 x 8 1/2 in cream, 7 1/4 x 8 7/8 in pink and 7 1/2 x 9 3/8 in black for the next layer. I used the Sweethearts cartridge to cut the dove at 2" and embossed it with the cuttlebug~swiss dots folder. I used the gypsy to weld the "Always & Forever" at 1.12 x 3.19 each word separately and the & symbol at 1.22 using Lyrical Letters cartridge. I welded the date at .49 x 2.06 and cut it on vinyl for easy placing. I used a SU punch for around the date. The pretty flower piece on the side of the layout I found at Michael's. Pretty ha??

SPRING is in the air........

Hey everyone,

This project is for a couple challenges that I had a blast playing along in. The challenges are: cricutcardz Challenge #67~Spring project using pink, green and white only AND Peachy Keen Sketch Challenge #48. I hope you like it as much as I did making it!!

This is a 5" card with a base layer that is 4 3/4. The scallop and flower plus the layers are cut at 3 1/2  from the Create a Critter cartridge. The little face on the flower is from PK~dolly dumplins faces set. I have used a pretty flower border punch from fiskars. The sentiment "Happy Spring" is from My Creative Time~"color me happy" stamp set, which I love. The solid  paper used is from SU and the patterned paper I am not sure what company~just scraps I had laying around.

The box is one that I found at a craft shop that I decorated up. I cut the strips at 2 1/8 x 9 1/2 to fit around the sides and 4 1/2 x 4 3/4 for the top. I distressed it a bit using a distress tool and a color box ink pad~olive pastel. The leaves were cut at 1 1/4  and used the cuttlebug to emboss them using the swiss dots folder. The sentiment "Spring is in the air" is from My Creative Time~"color me happy" stamp set. I used SU punches for around the sentiment. The ribbon and bling are from Michael's.

Hi Everyone,
Here is a quick card I put together tonight for the Scrappy Moms Terrific Tuesday Challenge~Any project using the Smiley Cards cartridge and Celebrate the Occasion Challenge #6~ Create a Thank you card and to have a tag on your project. I have only used this cartridge maybe one other time. So, it was fun to dust it off and use it. LOL!

The tag punch and sentiment is from SU~tiny tags set. The ribbon and natural hemp is from Michael's. Have a good night!!!! Thanks for visiting....

Celebrate The Occasion-"St. Patrick's Day" Challenge!!

Hello Everyone,
Happy Wednesday !!!! Hope everyone is having a great day!
I was trying to come up with something a little different for the challenge #4 over at "Celebrate the Occasion". The theme is "St. Patrick's Day" and to create a card, layout or project. I decided to create a "treat tin" for my friends special poochie. Hope she likes it!! I am happy how this turned out and hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it!!!

I had this tin that tea had came in and thought it would work perfect for this project. I wrapped it with printed paper from Reminisce, cut at 5 x 8 1/2. I attached ribbon to the outer edges of the tin and tacked it down. I cut the poochie at 2 1/4 and the layers from Create a Critter cartridge. I cut the hat at 1 1/4 and the shamrocks at 3 3/4, 1" and 1/2" from Paper Dolls Dress Up cartridge. I added a bow by the collar with twine from Papertreyink. The ribbon and paperclip from Michael's. The used a white signo pen for the sentiment to write "lucky dog"and to do the stitching. I also distressed the paper and around edges of the tin with a stamp pad (walnut stain) from Tim Holtz.

My card base is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2, next layer-brown cut at 4 x 5 1/4, next layer-yellow cut at 3 3/4 x 5. I embossed the yellow using my cuttlebug and inked around the edges with SU chocolate chip stamp pad.  I cut the cute frame at 3 1/2 and the adorable owl at 2 3/4 plus all the layers from the Cindy Loo cartridge. I popped up the layers on the owl and attached to the corner of the frame. I used SU punches for around the sentiment "Hoo-ray for you", which was from My Pink Stamper stamp set-"Tweetie Hoo Puns", which is perfect for this card. The ribbon,button and the pearls for the eyes is from Michael's and the twine is from Papertreyink.

Biker Chick shaped card!!

I made this card using the Rock Princess cartridge and my gypsy. I really love how this shaped card turned out and she is soo cute!!!

I cut the biker chic on the cycle in black at 4.97 x 3.95 copied the image, flipped and welded them together. I cut all the layers at 3.94. The card stock was from SU, twine from papertreyink, bling from Michael's and a little stickles I had on hand. I also embossed her cute skirt using my cuttlebug and a folder I purchased from a craft store. Thanks for looking!!!
