Create a Critter/ Peek-a-boo card



This is such a cutesy cart! I am definitely looking forward to using this again and again. I got the idea for this card from a Youtube tutorial (sorry I couldn't find the name). It is a 4" by 7" card and the sides are accordion folded to allow it to "move". All the cuts are from Create a Critter, including the window (3 3/4"), cut using the Center Point feature on the E. The tree is cut at 3 3/4", and all other cuts are at 2" except the lil' bit of grass cut at 1". I also added stickles to the butterfly, tulips, and the eyes and antennae of the caterpillar. The little apple reads "for you". So sweet!

Altered Chipboard / Pretty little purse











This is a gift for a friend of my son's. She will be 5 years old and os soo cute, I just had to do the girly thing and make her a purse album! The font is Mini Monograms (if you can see it under the bling!) The die cuts are Mickey and Friends, the purse stamps and ladybug are Close to My Heart, and the white and blue flowers are my own design, done in acrylic. I also added some rub-ons and ribbon. TFL!!

Robotz- Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto!!

Happy Dance!

Happy Easter everyone! There's always a silver lining, and of course the day calls for us to celebrate our faith in the Living Christ!! Woohoo!
 There's so much that I am thankful for today, most importantly the love of our God. It is also a good day to thank those that I've met through this blog and other places I frequent on the net. You all lend support and have such kind things to say, it really makes my day sometimes.
On that note, I want to thank the ladies from BittenBytheBug2. These ladies form a great team, and I'm so glad they've kept up they're blog since it provides everyone else with a little nudge of inspiration to get going on projects. They've been so kind as to let me win a prize that I cannot wait to get in the mail! I hope to have my camera up in order so I can send them pics of what I make. Again, thank you, thank you, thank you!

Mother's day Solutions cart



This is a simple little mother's day card I made using the Cricut solutions Mother's Day cart. I am really pleased with this cart, but don't foresee cutting these images so small in the future. Having said that, I know this cart can do LOTS! I can imagine a wedding invitation, or even table settings made with this...ohhhh the creative juices!
For this card I was really just playing around to see how the images would cut, and I've come to the conclusion that with the right speed, the most intricate cuts can be made. (Your mat must be sticky!) Thanks for looking!!

Easter Card

This is a little easter card I made using a vintage image from Twisted papers. (They have the best images I've seen!) Also, I used a stamp from OTC for the "lace". After cutting out all of the unwanted areas, it really looks like lace, I love being able to make this out of paper,  because with a little inking, you can customize the "lace" to your project. The little flowers are a paper punch, embellished by my favorite little pearls. The left side of the image also got a small frame of cream colored thin ribbon.
I would show the inside, but I've already written in it, and decided against it.

Paper Pups, From My Kitchen / WHIP IT!!


I made this card as a joke, that's why I didn't bother with an envie. I used the Gypsy to weld the blender and whisk to the pup. The cuts are from Paper Pups, From My Kitchen, and the words are a mix of FMK, and AMU. I used the cuttlebug swiss dots on the blue paper, and added some stamping to the green background with some a new Me & My Big Ideas stamp I found at J's. The whisks have white MS glitter to add some batter, as well as some drops flyin' around. The solid color background papers are all Core-dinations paper which I am loving! Leave me a comment or question if you'd like!
