Rain Boots - More than Favors Color Challenge

Hi Everyone!

What a gorgeous day today!  It is my day off and I spent it doing laundry and crafting! I really enjoy looking at everyone's blogs and getting inspiration from all of you talented people.  I also would like to thank you for the sweet comments! They do make me smile.  So I wanted to make a card for a friend that lives in Oregon.  She loves it there and I am happy she loves where she lives as much as I love where I live. I am so blessed to live a mile from the beach and enjoy seeing the ocean everyday! I used the paisley cartridge for the boots.  I used the gypsy to separate them and reverse one. O.K. so I'm not the best at the white pen. I love the look just need more practice. The tag is from TBBM Cartridge. I love how this card turned out.  I entered it in Paula's (MoreThanFavors) color challenge using yellow, blue & white.

Thank you for looking!

Happy Birthday to the Cat's Meow

Hi Everyone,

Robyn at My Pink Stamper is having a Birthday.  She is giving a challenge to create something with a birthday theme.  I have a card that I think suits her very well. I used my cuttlebug for the background, some paper from my collection, and the paisley cartridge for the kitty.  The sentiment is printed from my computer.

Thank you for looking!

Gift Card Holder

Hi Everyone!

First, I must thank Cooking with Cricut for the amazing honor. Their amazing design team chose my ladybug card (below) as a top 3 pick for the Glitermania challenge.  I was head over heels! Thank you so very much!

So on to today, More than Favors is having a challenge.  If you haven't been by her site, it's a must see.  She does some amazing things!  The challenge this week was to create giftcard holders. I created a gift card holder out of a purse.  I used the paisley cartridge and gypsy.  I just welded two shaped at the top.  I added ribbon and a great little green button. On the inside I used a ribbon and positioned it just right so it is real tight to hold the card. I LOVE this paper.  It is very old and I don't think the company is in business any longer.  It is called imagination project. 

 Thank you for looking!
