PKS challenge -

This weeks challenge at PKS was to make anything you wanted as long as you used PKS stamps.
I know they are known for their great faces but I like the simple sayings too. This saying is from PK 277 - Vivienne and Friends. I thought it was simple yet perfect.

I used SEI Winnie's Wall paper and cut the blower basket from the Bloom cartridge at 4" w/ the layers. I also cut out the little tag from Bloom at 1 1/2"

Stickles added to the green flower and a few rhinestones.

Hope you enjoy and
Happy Scrappin'

Cricut Weekly Challenge #26: Just Because Challenge!

I just recently signed up for the Cricut Circle. I love seeing the ideas everyone has. I was able to play around in my scrapbook room tonight. I was on the Cricut Circle blog and deceided that I would make a cute little card. I made a card for someone special (shhhh won't say who - but it is someone pretty special).

I made a cute Baby Elephant playing in the grass getting ready to send a letter. The reason why is my daughter who is 2 is so excited about seeing the "Baby Ephant" so I thought the recipient would love the card. On the inside it simple says, "Just because..." -- The stamp set is from Emma at http://www.creativetimeforme.com/. These stamps are just as cute as can be.

I was also made a cute little butterfly to put on the inside.

I used:

Copper Metallic paper

Purple Metallic paper

**My new favorite Pomegranate Metallic paper

and Kiwi Metallic paper

Kraft card stock

I cute the Baby Elephant at 2 1/2" with the shadow feature from the Paisley cartridge.

The grass is from Easter 2010

The butterfly is from Bloom (my new favorite cartridge)

The cute little buttons are in the shape of flowers.

I hope the recipient likes it.

Hope you enjoy and Happy Scrappin'

Throwback Thursday - Green

The inside is pop up tulips:

It has been a few weeks (OK month) since I have sat down and did a challenge.

Well one of my favorite challenges is Emma's from http://www.creativetimeforme.com/. Here Throwback Thursdays are always so much fun. This theme you can pick any older cartridge, but you have to use the color GREEN.

Any time I feel stressed our or upset I hide in my scrapbook room for some comfort and relief. So I made this card for a friend of mine who just lost her unborn baby boy last week. She was only about 16 weeks pregnant. I made this card just to cheer her up.

I didn't have any stamps that were "Just because, or Thinking of you". So I used the stamp set "Take the Cake" from Sarah at http://www.pinkcricut.com/. I think this worked out well for her situation. I didn't want a sympathy card, I wanted to let her know I was thinking of her and just wishing her some sunshine and smiles during this time.

The card was similar to one of the Make 'N Takes, that Robyn from www.mypinkstamper.com

hosted. It was super easy and is really cute.

The little tulips "pop" up - which I have seen previews of the new cricut cartridges and they have a "POP" up style card in them. That is cool.

I used:
Create a Critter for the birdie
Bloom cartridge for the tulips
The banner is from SEI Corinne embellishment pack.




The new paper line Corinne from SEI will probably become one of my FAVORITES!! I love it.
The Card base is A2 size/ the paper is 2 sided called (SEI) Sunshine.
The Patterned paper is the (SEI) Flight of Fancy - it is 2 sided - so the pretty flowers on the one side, and rainbow on the other. It is just so PRETTY.

The pink tulips and green stems are from "The Paper Company" metallic papers - the dark pink is Pomegranate metallic, the green is Kiwi metallic. This paper cuts so nicely on the cricut machine. I love it.

Hope you enjoy -

Buzz over to Emma's blog to see her new STAMPS!!!
