Have the Scariest Halloween ever !!

Hello Card Lovers,
     It's Challenge time, I have a cute Halloween card I made for two different challenges going on. This will be entered in, over at Peachy Keen (Sketch Challenge) & Die Cuttin Divas (Twine,Pop-Dots & Buttons). I wasn't lying when I said Halloween is my favorite holiday. I said, I will probably post a lot of Halloween cards in the next couple post, so I wanted to stay true to my word. Here is what I came up with...

Materials Used

Bump In The Night Cricut Lite Cartridge

Elegant Edges Cricut Cartridge

PK-690 Make A Monster Face Assortment

DCWV The Bewitched Stack

Buttons From Stash

My Pink Stamper (Spook-alicious)

White, Black & Red Gel Pens

3D Foam Squares



DoodleBug Bakers Twine

 

     My card base measures 5.5 x 4.25 and is made using black card stock. My background layers were cut using the Elegant Edges cricut cartridge, I used the oblong shape on page 51 along with the shadow feature and those were cut at 4". My "Scary" monster, not so much, was cut at 3.5 Inches. I used my gypsy so I could hide the face and use my adorable Peachy Keen monster faces.

     I hope you all enjoy this SPOOKY Halloween card. Feel free to ask any questions!!

Thanks & Happy Scrappin"

Critter Cuties

Hello Card Lovers,
     I'm back with another post. I will be entering this card in the challenge going on over at Cardz TV Blog. The Challenge theme was Critter Cuties. I was surprised with myself that I didn't use Create a Critter, I figured this was the main cartridge everyone would be using so I wanted to be different. Here is what I came up with...

Materials Used

Kates ABC's Cricut Cartridge

Flower Shoppe Cricut Cartridge

DCWV Paper

Scrappy Moms Stamps

Ribbon From Stash

Yellow Bakers Twine

K&Co. Rhinestones

3D Foam Squares

Fiskars Boarder & Corner Punch

ATG Adhesive

     My Card base measures at 5.5 x 5.25. My cute little queen bumble bee and her little bumble bee friend are cut at 3.5 Inches.

     I have really been into bright fun colors lately, come on like that's a bad thing. I figured I might as well get my summer bright cards out of the way because my favorite season and holiday are right around the corner. I have a feeling that a lot of my next post will be Halloween related. I have been getting new cartridges like crazy, so I am super excited to try them all out.

     I hope you all enjoy my fun colorful card !!!

Thanks & Happy Scrappin"

Back To School

Hello Card Lovers,
       I will have a couple post for tonight. These 1st cards I am going to be sharing with you will be entered into The Scrappy Moms Teriffic Tuesday challenge.
       I only have one child, who is only going to be 15 months. So I don't have any teachers to make gifts for, but I still love the challenge. Here is what I came up with...

Materials Used

Simply Charmed Cricut Cartridge

Just Because Cards Cricut Cartridge

Scrappy Moms (The Charmed Life) Sentiment Stamps

Indie Chic Paper Stack

DCWV Solid Cardstock

Buttons From Stash

Grey & Orange Bakers Twine

Cuttle Bug Emboss Folder

Fiskars Boarder Punch

     I made a little set of note cards, I only made three to go into the coordinating envelope. You could make as many as you wanted though. My little card measure at 4" x 3.5", I put a solid  piece of cardstock on the inside over the patter paper so the teacher could write message. For the writing of the pencil I used grey bakers twine, I think its just adds a little something extra.

       Feel free to ask any question you may have. Hope you all enjoyed !!!

Thanks & Happy Scrappin"

My measurements for the base are 11x4.25, I then scored my card at 5.5, once you do that you will fold your card along the score line and you will then score on an angle from left hand corner up to right. All my paper except for the paper used on my critters, was printed using my imagine and the cricut imagine (Best Friends) cartridge. I added some glossy essentials to my little piggy's nose, just to give it that wet look. I embossed the blue background paper, and my little sheep's wool as well.

Peachy Keen Color Challenge

         Its time for another terrific challenge over at the Peachy Keen blog. This weeks challenge, was a color inspiration challenge. I decided to go with a fall theme for this card, I guess the colors just seemed like fall to me. Here is what I came up with....

Materials Used

Create a Critter Cricut Cartridge

     My card base measures at 5.5x4.25, then I just added a piece of paper that I punched and distressed to add an extra touch. My raccoon measures at 3.5" along with all his layers. I  knew I wanted to do a fall theme and I got really excited. I have had all these leaf's in my stash for at least three years and I have yet to have used them on any project, so today was the day to use them, finally!!!

     This Color Inspiration, made me think outside the box because I normally probably wouldn't have put these colors together,but I really like how they look together.

     I hope you all enjoy my fall theme card, feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Thanks & Happy Scrappin"

Cardz TV "School is Cool" Challenge

Hello Card Lovers,
         Wow, how time flies I cannot even believe how long I have been out of school, well to me anyways. I only have one child right now and he is only 14 months, so I have awhile before the whole school thing starts, thank goodness. The card I made for this challenge, I used my new cartridge I just bought, Wrap it up, thank you mom for the birthday money. There was a really cute apple cut on this cartridge so I decided to go with that.

Materials Used
Wrap it up Cricut Cartridge

Fiskars Boarder Punch
Clear Dollar Stamps (Kids Encouragements)

 My card base measures at 4.75x4.75, my apple is cut at 4". I went ahead and inked around the
apple and the leaf, with my Tim Holtz distress ink to give it a three dimensional look.

      I was so excited to finally use this ribbon in my card, it has little apples all over it, I just love it and now I am not hoarding it anymore. I bought this in the dollar bin at target almost 3 years ago, now you can see why I was excited to use it. I loved it so much I knew I would have to wait to use it until I found the best project for it.

     I am happy with my final result and think it turned out better then I expected. If anyone has further questions on any of the products I used or how I made the card, feel free to ask.

Thanks & Happy Scrappin"

             This card totally reminds me of one of my favorite childhood movies, I was born in the late 80's, and I just love this movie to death. Can you guess what it is....
