Happy 21st Birthday Card!!

 

Hey Everyone,

 

I hope you all are having a great day out there. My day is going pretty good. So my Mom's birthday was April 2nd and I made this birthday card for her. She always jokes and says she's 21, so  I decided to make her a 21st birthday card. I handmade the drink!! I put glitter in the glass to make it look like alcohol and added a cute little umbrella. I used some beach neon colors as well. I hope you enjoyed this card. This is my most recent card, however I will be making a Mother's Day one sometime before Sunday. I'm currently working on some other stuff as well. I hope to finish it sometime soon to show you guys. Thanks for taking the time to view my blog!! : )

Teacher Appreciation Card!!

Hello Everyone,
I hope you are having a great day today! I completed this teacher appreciation card 3/29/13. I loved how it turned out. I got both Create a Critter cartridges for Christmas and I've been playing with them the past couple of cards. I love the cute little critters. The apple and the worm are from the Create a Critter Cartridge. I glittered the apple in red glitter and glittered the cheeks in pink. I cut the worm and put a cute little flower up by it's ear. LOL Do worms have ears? Or at least I put the flower by where an ear should be. Haha I used the Martha Stewart punch along the middle and I used one of the cricut cuts with the scalloped edge along the border as well. I tied some tulle in the middle as well and topped the bow off with a little green button. The background I swiss dotted the black card stock with the cuttlebug and then inked the dots red. I hope you enjoy the card!! Tomorrow I will show my last updated project and then I'm all caught up!! Yay!! I have more projects to show you after that, I just have to complete them. Thanks for taking the time to view my blog!!

Spider Halloween Card!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hey Everyone,

 

Hope you're having a great day today. I completed this card 3/27/13.  I made this card for a JoAnn fabric challenge. The challenge was to make something with only 8 items from a list they gave you. It was called Create with 8. So my eight items I chose was yarn, glitter, cardstock, scrapbook embellishments, tulle, buttons, ribbon, and wiggle eyes. I had a hard time coming up with an idea of something to use the wiggle eyes on and the yarn. So I thought of a cute little spider with the wiggle eyes and dangling from the yarn. I liked the whole tulle look on the card!! The spider was created using the Create a Critter Cartridge!! Once again another scalloped edge circle card!! LOL love that cut. I hope you enjoy my Halloween Card!! Thanks for stopping by and viewing my blog! Have a blessed week!!

Owl Birthday Card!!

Hey Everyone,

I hope you all are having a fabulous Sunday!! Mine is going really, really, really great so Far!! Today's Sermon at Church was so amazing!!  It was about Gluttony and how you view food. 4 years ago on this exact day, I asked God for his help with my weight!! I couldn't do it anymore the weight kept me from pursing my dreams and held me back in so many ways. I needed God's help because I had tried many times to do it by myself and I was never able to lose much or stick with it for very long. He provided me the motivation and dedication to continue on this journey. I know that I would not be were I am today if it wasn't for his grace on my life!! I am so incredibly blessed for what he has did!! I am thankful everyday that I am not what I used to be! So if you are struggling with a weight issue know that nothing is to big for God!! : )
The card I have above is a birthday card my sister had me make for her friend that loves Owls. I completed this 3/5/13 The owl was made with the Disney Princess Cartridge and it's under the sleeping beauty section. I made the stomach area polka dots because I thought it would be so cute!! The branch and the sentiment was from Create a Critter Cartridge!! I just love the scalloped edge cards as you can tell!! I hope you like the card!! Thanks for taking the time to view my blog!!

More Valentine Treats!

Hey Everyone,

How's everyone doing today? Hope you are having a great National Scrapbook Day!! So today I went to a yard sale and I got two scrapbook storage bins for 3.00 a piece. It's something that I had been wanting, but haven't bought it yet. I will have to upload some of my yardsale finds because sometimes I finds some really great items for a great price. 
Today I'm showing you 5 more Valentine treats that I made for my brother's family. My nephew was home sick on Valentine's so he missed his class party and the valentine's part. So I decided to make some valentine's for my brother's family. I completed these valentines 2/15/13. Most of the treats were made using Create a Critter Cartridge and possibly Create a Critter 2 Cartridge. The Sentiments were made using the Computer printer. I hope you enjoyed the treats. Thanks for taking the time to view my blog!! : )

Hey Everyone,

 

It's rainy here!! Hopefully it's nice and sunny where you are at!! : ) So these Valentine treats were completed 2/13/13. I made the blue owl one for my dad and the pink one for my mom. I made the little fishy one for my 1 year old Niece. I made the bee one for my sister and the monkey for my other niece. I used the Disney Princess cartridge for the owl. I really love how that owl looks! For the rest of the items I used the Create a Critter cartridge!! I just used the computer to print out the sentiments.

Edward Cullen Birthday Card!!

Hey Everyone,

Today I'm sharing another birthday card I made for my cousin!! She loves the Twilight movie, especially Edward Cullen, so I decided to make a birthday card with him on it. I completed this card 2/7/2013.
For the card, I used a Sizzix folder to emboss it and then I inked it in black. I used the Martha Stewart Doily Lace punch for the sides. Then used the gypsy wanderings cartridge for the Happy Birthday and then I glittered it. I handmade the Edward Cullen and topped the card off with black and red ribbon.  I hope you enjoyed the card!!
