Create a Critter

Ok, so here's another Thank you card with the little Panda from CAC. I cut the bowl a little larger to fit a stamp, and then decided I would write the sentiment myself. Pardon the pun, but it was just begging for it! I love this panda! The card is from DCWV and it is glittery, the rest of the papers are from The Paper Studio (found at HL). They cut amazingly well on the Cricut, and the colors are nice and saturated. We like!

Wild Card

I got this cart for Mother's day as a gift from my hubby and kids, and decided to make a thank you card with the Monster card. I love that the envelopes all have their own little twist, so I think this cart is great because of that. Also, included are some universal envelopes meant to fit a variety of cards!! Bonus! It was super easy to make. The important thing here is that you have to make the envelope 1st. I really think the Gypsy came in handy because I'm not sure it would've been as easy to use without the G. TFL!

Paper Pups, Animal Kingdom/NSD Challenges

I got around to making these last night for the NSD challenge from My Pink Stamper. One challenge was to use scraps, and another was to use your least favorite cart. I used scraps for the page with the little puppy in the grass titled: "That's what little boys are made of". On other layout I used Animal Kingdom for my least favorite. This cart is a little tricky to use and some of the animals are IMO just plain ugly. I used the head of a horse, and horse border welded to the photo frames. Good thing the horse in the pic was cute!

Create a Critter- Merci cards.

These are just some quick Thank you cards I put together. They are very simple and to the point, but of course they are so very cute with the little "critters". The little bird only has the flower embellishment and ribbon to match her beak as well as the polka-dots on the background paper. The Poodle has texture by using the swiss dots on the Cuttlebug. She also has chalk ink and I finished her off with some adorable little brads to dress up her little pink bows.  TFL!

Robotz / CLP Monthly Challenge

This cute little card was inspired by the CLP challenge, over at CLPchallenge.blogspot.com. I didn't write in it, because I haven't decided on the caption yet. The cuts are from Robots & George. I also used a MS punch for the edge, and cuttlebug for the textured blue strip. Edge scissors, chalk ink, and hand-drawn stitching. The gears are a stamp from Technique Tuesday. I had a blast making this. TFL!

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!!
