Monkey Card! Just Because

Ok I finally got my entire craft room all organized and it is fabulous! So I thought I'd make a card. This is using the create a critter cartridge. I put the monkey on a wobbler and attached the vine to him so when he is "hangin out" he is really swingin'. This is majority DCWV and Bazzil cardtock. Blank inside white card. This card turned out really really cute!! I hope everyone enjoys!!

Fantabulous Spring!

I have to say there are a few blogs that I check all the time because well I just love em'. http://www.fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com/ is one of them. This challenge/crawl is a great one for this time of year! Spring! I just love it, it represents new life and new beginings. There are a few colors that scream spring. This challenge/crawl required three of them green, pink and yellow! MMMMMM YELLOW PEEPS!! OK I was getting all excited for my PEEP filled Easter Basket. This card does open however I have concidered just making this a single piece card, perfect for sliding in and Easter Basket for that special someone, I am in negotions with the Easter Bunny for a bulk purchase deal!! :) I used some scraps for this whole project. I am going to try to be a little more dilligent with keeping notes on products I use. I did stickle the PEEPS cuz we all know they have some fantabulous sugary sprinklies on them, and again I will say MMMMMMM PEEPS!! I did use the herringbone Cuttlebug Folder on the base of the basket, however I used a rolling pin to texture it instead of the Cuttlebug to make it more subtle (a friend of mine told me about that.) I did not want the standard solid colored eggs so I went for my most Easteriffic prints to make my eggs. The stamp says "some bunny loves you". Happy Spring to everyone I hope it is just as sweet for you as it will be for me!

Happy Birthday Flower!

Well  I'm definitely getting a bit quicker at making cards! I thought this was a basic card that could go for anyone, any gender or any age! I am still trying to get a system down for crisp stamping but I'm getting there! LOL. Well This card as with many of mine are a mish mash of products I have.
There is some Bazil paper, Recollections and a 3D butterfly from Jolee's set I bought 3 years ago!
I used the "Freshly Picked" cartridge for this card.
I like the simplicity of this card and well it's just fun! I hope you all enjoy!

Of course we all know that no matter what age we are it is perfection! Till the next year that is!

This card is for the ever so wonderful blog challenge http://www.celebratetheoccasion.blogspot.com/

Hugs, kisses and happy wishes!

I used so many different products.
The card is from Target (found a huge pack of card on clerance plain white with envelopes)
The solid papers are recollections. Except the green which is bazil.
The cloud came in a pack from Big Lots I forgot the brand though.
The grass print is from a DCWV pack with some really cool natural prints.
The stamp is Hampton Art.
I colored the stamp with Martha stewart glitter markers.
I inked the sides of the stamp frame and card edge with cats eye ink.
The Boots and the Umbrella were cut from the Pasley Cartridge.

NEW HOME

OK So, I have come to realize that I am not going to give myself a must do for a certain number of posts. I will be posting more often than I have been though. I have been putting quite a few hours into my craft room organization. It was really disorganized and I realized it was taking me over 2 hours to put together a card  because I couldn't fine anything I needed (not cool). So several trips to Michaels and Target and it is almost "ALIVE"! I'll post those pictures soon too. This card only took me 10 minutes to get it all put together. muuuch better:) Thanks again for all of those who are still keepin up with me:)

P.S. I originally intended this card for http://www.celebratetheoccasion.blogspot.com/ a cool challenge for those who like to participate in challenges. I happened to miss the deadline (by a few hours grrrr). Hope you all enjoy.

I used Recollections A2 card.
Cricut Country Life Cartridge
My paper is a collaboration of many different pieces of scrap (love that) sorry I am not sure of the brands.
Stickles Cinnamon on the weather vane at the top of the silo.

My Pink Stamper Blog Hop "Spring"

It's that time of year, Spring is here! Don your gloves, dig some dirt, plant a seed it's worth the work. It will give you pleasure for months to come, and maybe even some food for your tummy tum tum.
I created this seed packed off the "Freshly Picked" cartridge. I measured the seed packet I bought and used my Gypsy to adjust the size to fit! You can label the seeds or even give them as a surprise with just a few instructions and your friends will have a gift now and a surprise later. I am going to make a gift "basket" though I will be using a pot. I'm going to add some organic fertilizer, some seeds, a pair of gloves and a dibble. Everything needed to plant a seed except dirt and water. lol. I hope my friends like this gift, I know I would love to receive it!

I used recollection cardstock for the seed packet.

Believe it or not I used a drawer liner remnant for the hat background! (I throw nothing away lol)

Freshly Picked Cricut cartridge

Studio G I Clear stamp for the "Color your WORLD" stamp. (I can't wait tomorrow I get to buy some My Pink stamper stamps)!!
