#96 – Valentiny Cards

Hi All,

This week's challenge over at the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog,

is Valentiny Cards - Create a Valentine card thats 3"x3" card.

So... I started by using this frame from Elegant Edges Cricut cartridge  
and added the heart from Home Decor Solutions to the centre.

I popped it up on a stamped script background and added the "Love" sentiment.

I added a bow with a button, 

and stitching lines using a chocolate chip maker from Stampin' Up!.

#95 – Label It!

Hi All,

The challenge over at the 

Fantabulous Cricut Blog 

this week is to

create a project using a label shape other than a plain circle.

Using Kate's ABCs and Elegant Edges cricut cartridges,

I came up with this motif to match this sentiment from 

Hero Arts - Everyday Sayings

I chose this tag cut from 

Tags, Bags, Boxes and More Cricut Cartridge.

The designer paper is new from 

Basic Grey - Kissing booth

on an Early Expresso card base from Stampin' Up!

Ribbon and Brads from Michael's.

Hi All,

I thought I would share this with you.

I had this image colour up for a few months now,

but I just made a card with it this past week.

Glamour Girl Annette - Kraftin' Kimmie

Check out this technique I used for the background,

Gina K. Using up Scraps

The sentiment I used is from a set called Simple Thoughts,

the frame is from Stampin' Up's Four Frames

and I used the Curved Rectangles from Spellbinders.

Sunrise - Treasure Beach, Jamaica

Hi All,

Just got back last night from an amazing vacation

with my family in Jamaica.

The weather was warm and sunny and the scenery was to die for.

Now back to reality, I will continue to post as per usual.

Hope everybody had a merry, merry Chritmas,

And I'm wishing you all a Very, Very Happy and Prosperous New Year.

Let It Snow!

A Happy New Year to all,

The challenge this week over at

Robin's Creative Cottage

is to make a project with snow or snowflakes on it.

I started out with a 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" card base.

I love this sentiment from Robin's Creative Cottage -

Snowman's Prayer. So I cut it apart to make the two.

(hope Robin doesn't mind).

The snowflake cut is from the

Potpourri Basket cricut cartridge.

I added some pearls and bling,

Martha Stewart baker's twine and

the paper is Basic Grey - Nordic Holiday

Thanks for stoppin' by...

Season's Greetings...

Hi All,

Just a quick post today.

This is a simple card I made using some stamps that I had in my stash for years.

I white embossed the stars and tree and

Stickles for the small stars along with some

Martha Stewart baker's twine to add more colour.

This time of year is so busy, I hardly have time to post.

Holiday Treat Packaging (Video)

Hi All,

Today (Tuesday) over at

Robin's Creative Cottage,

the challenge is to create a project showing how to

wrap holiday treats, gift bags, boxes etc.

Using this sentiment from

Gingerbread Holiday - Robin's Creative Cottage,

I made and decorated this box.

I used The Love you a Latte and Elegant Edges cricut cartridges.

This box is great for gift cards or small treats etc.

In a stamping group I attend, our demonstrator show us how to make this box.

(see videos below)

Just a short video showing a 360 degree view.

#90 - Rolling in Ribbon

Hi All,

The Fantabulous Cricut Challenge this week is to

Add ribbon to your project

I love adding ribbon to my projects it just adds such girly flare.

I came up with this shaped card inspired by this sentiment from

Robin's Creative Cottage - Snowman's Prayer.

The tag is from

Tags, Bags, Boxes & More Cricut Gypsy cartridge

I used this plaid ribbon for the snowman's scarf

and ran his hat through my Cuttlebug

using the Tim Holts Bricked embossing folder for texture.
