Baby boy card

Hello Everyone!!

Well I'm finally back!  Sorry for the absence of posts lately!!  Just been busy!

I have had this paper for awhile now and have been wanting to use it!  Finally I had the chance.  It makes for a very cut baby boy card!  I stamped the little frog image and added the ribbon on the side.  And then finished it up with some stickles...I think it turned out very cute!


Have a great weekend!!

Throwback Thursday Challenge-Animal theme

Hi Everyone!!

Well it's Friday and Emma posted her Throwback Thursday Challenge yesterday...The challenge this week is to create an animal themed project!

I made a card for this challenge.  The little frog is from the Live Simply cartridge!  Not sure if a frog classifies as and animal or not but I went with it!  The little frog to too cute, don't ya think?  I used a border punch and some ribbon, along with the "Sale Sign" punch and "Best Wishes" stamp...I was pretty pleased with how it turned out!  And the googly eyes give the frog some personality!! 

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

My Pink Stamper Challenge- Bird

Here I go again!!!

There are sooo many challenges today!!!  I couldn't resist entering them all!!

This card is for the My Pink Stamper challenge.  The only directions she gave was create a project using a bird!!  That's it!  And this is what I came up with!!

The little birdie is from the Live Simply cricut cart.  The patterned paper is from Heidi Grace (I just got it today at Big Lots, along with the pink textured cardstock, which is Bazzil!!)  I was at Michaels a few weeks ago and found this pink ribbon.  Let me just say that I love it!  It is felt!!!  I couldn't wait to get to use and I finally got the chance!  The Happy Birthday is heat embossed. I added the stitching and a little bling for the eye. This is such a TWEET card, lol!  I couldn't resist!!

Thanks for putting up with ALL my posts today...I've just been in a crafting mood lately!! :)

Crafting with Christina-Companion Challenge - Falling for Fall

Ok, I'm back again!!  :)

Cristina from Crafting with Cristina is having another Companion Challenge.  This weeks challenge was to create a fall card or project using the colors red, orange, and yellow and it must also include leaves.  The paper I used is from the Autumn Spendor stack by DCWV.  The glitter apple cutout was also from that stack.  I just cut it out and popped it up on the card.  I also used some brown and red grosgrain ribbon.  And on top of that I placed some coordinating buttons with cording knotted in them.  I love how this card turned out!!  I just love fall and all the colors!!  And it is perfect for FALL!!!

Throwback Thursday Challenge - "Old School Style"

Hello Everyone!!  Happy Fall!

I hope everyone is doing great!!  Fall is here, although it is still very hot!!!  I won't be long before Halloween!!  For this post, I entered Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge...The challenge was to create a card without using the Cricut using patterned paper!!  Well I have only been into card making for about 6 months so I have never HAD to make a card without my handy Cricut!!  I was a bit of a challenge just thinking up something.  But I have Halloween sticker pad and I just picked a cute sticker from it!!!  I used some patterned paper that I got from Hobby Lobby, added the "Happy Halloween" sticker on a matte, added a little ribbon and I was done!!

Although it was a bit of a challenge, it was nice not having to look for ideas on all my carts!!  Think it turned out cute!!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Crafting with Christina-Companion Challenge-"Back to School" AND I GOT A GYPSY!!!!!

Hello again!!!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend!!  Well I work on weekends but I came home to a nice surprise!!  I ordered my Gypsy last Friday and I came today!!  It came with 6 cartridges!!  Gypsy Font and Gypsy Wanderings of course, plus 4 others that downloaded when I updated it!!  I have no clue what I'm doing but I will learn!!

Christina from Crafting with Christina is having her Companion Challenge this week!  My daughter just started Pre-K, so I did a layout of her first day!!  She was so excited!! 

I used the DCWV Grade School chalkboard paper!  I wasn't sure what other colors to use, so I just pulled them from her outfit and backpack.  And just added some black and white ribbon to bring it together!  I think it turned out cute!!




Have a great night!!
