Good afternoon Crafty Friends! I hope everyone is having a good day. I apologize for getting my post up so late. My Chihuahua Bunny has not been well so I wasn’t able to work on my post. She’s fighting a liver infection so I’ve been giving her meds and keeping a close eye one her. We are really hoping and praying that she pulls through. She’s a fighter and a spunky little girl so we are keeping positive.

I do want to share with you my Design Team card for Cricut Cardz Challenge #107. The theme this week is “There’s no other, like my Mother”. Make a Mother’s Day card using any cartridge(s) and using any colors you’d like.

I hope you like my card. I used Create a Critter to cut out the flowers and Plantin Schoolbook to make the frame. The flowers are sprayed with perfect pearl mist and embellished with buttons.

This card turned out just how I wanted it to. Clean, Simple and Happy!

Six happy little buttons, tied five different ways!

Thank you so much for coming by and checking out my card. Have a wonderful day!

Hi everyone! I’m excited to announce that I’m on the Cricut Cardz Challenge Design Team!!! I’m so happy to be part of this team. I really love the challenges that Mary has and the inspiration each week is awesome! This weeks challenge is to make a card using scalloped circles, scalloped ovals, scalloped squares or scalloped rectangles and any cartridges or colors you’d like. It’s super easy and super fun to play along. So head on over to Cricut Cardz Challenge! We would love to see your card.

Below is my card, I think it turned out cute! It’s simple but perfect to brighten someone’s day. The ladybug and the scallops are cut with the Create A Critter cricut cartridge, the stems and the grass are hand cut and the sentiment is from Stampin Up, Very Punny. I hope my card gives you some inspiration to create and participate in the challenge.

If you have any questions about this card, please let me know. Have a wonderful day!

Bug Me Anytime.

This is the cutest little ladybug!

Today’s card was entered into Paper Cutz Challenge#42 (Use buttons & ribbon, lace or hemp) & Drunken Stampers #17  (Distressed chipboard).

I really love how it turned out. I think this card would be great for the man in your life! The background is stamped with a wood grain stamp and embossed with clear embossing powder. The heart is a chipboard piece colored with a red Copic marker. It had a design that I didn’t like but after two coats of Copic marker it was gone! Then I wrapped hemp cord around it and secured it with a  button. After that I adhered the heart with 1/16 inch pop-dots. One the inside of the card I added a thinner button to accent the future message.

Thanks for taking a look at my card! Have a wonderful weekend!

Love U

I love the textures on the button mixed with the wood grain and hemp cord textures.

The inside of the card has a space for a message with a button accent.

Here are couple cute cards that I made for my friends. I used an Anya stamp from the Greeting Farm. She is colored with copic markers. I also used patterned paper from Creative memories and K & Company. I handmade each of the lollipop flowers with patterned paper, cardstock, tulle, cellophane, ink and perfect pearls mist. The friend sentiment is from Brenda Walton.

The red themed card was made for my wonderful friend Susan. She is such a sweetheart and I have loved getting to know her. She has been so supportive and sweet to me. She is a real gem and I am so happy to call her my friend.   You can find her blog at One of a Kind Cards and Crafts or find her on YouTube at SuzieCrafter10. Be sure to check her out, she has the most beautiful vintage tags and handmade flowers!
