Happy Birthday!

this is a quick card for my youngest daughter Ashton :) I didn't actually have it done in time for mailing or personal delivery.

I used Elegent Edges (loops) for the matting and resized the project idea shown in the cricut book to a card from a 12x12 layout. I used CardzTv stamps for the sentiment cut into a banner. The image is colored with my Copics. I cut the image with my Silhouette.

Hedgies have a special place in her heart and one day she will have one! but for now, Penny Black supplies them :)

card stock is from stash as is the ribbon.

Happy Birthday Ashton!!
Hugs and Love, Mom

Just had to do

I saw this card HERE in the March issue of CARDS on pg. 18, and had to make for my stash! This little fella is so adorable.   Lawn Fawn is where the paper and the stamp set comes from.

I cut the speech bubbles from Cricut basic and shapes included with my E2 and CCR. The sentiments are stamped using a Birthday greetings set from Hot Off the Press I picked up at AC Moore for $1.00!!!! that was a great haul :)

ribbons and embroidery thread and buttons are from my stash.

Oh and I got to use my new personalized stamp from Stamps{of} Life

For Fun

I saw this cute little stamp set on My Favorite Things Blog that I subscribe to and I JUST had to get it!! My sister says this ALL THE TIME :) I colored her in with my copics and then paper pieced her top and pants. The papers are from my Club Scrap stash.. I love their cardstock! The little banner for the sentiment is hand cut, and the buttons and gems are stash also. I cut her using a spellbinder die and inked with Tim Holtz Antique Linen Distress ink. She is mounted on 1 and 2 thickness of 3M foam mounting tape.

It was fun playing with some old time crafty items :)

thanks for looking…

sunday cricut play

It's been a wk or so since I posted. The hurricane spared us this time around! I finally got my scrapping area somewhat back together :), rather all in one place again.
I've colored this little franken weenie from paper smooches and he is awaiting a card.

Then I had gotten a Scream Coffin svg from Cute-cutz and I added Glossy Accents to the eyes and mouth. I am really happy with the cut and how it turned out! great treat box!!

Next I played with a svg cut for Ashton's boyfriend who is a Miami Dolphin fan and not so much the Patriots:/

The svg's were cut on my Cricut Expression and I used card stock from my stash :) Hope you all had a nice Sunday!

made some progress

this week end. I managed to color a few digital pictures and get 2 of them into cards. The Panda card (saw on Cooking with Cricut,Jen's ) background is a stamp called Doily at Unity Stamps. The Panda is cut at 3" from Create A Critter and the papers are from my stash. I actually did 2 of these,one with a more masculine hat and one with a feminine color for my brother and sister who are twins and birthdays are coming up.
The doggy card digital stamp is from ?? Bugaboo?? really not sure and I have put a better saving system in place when downloading my stamps now :) The image is colored with Copics and papers/cardstock are my stash
