Week 6 -- wow where has the year gone???

 

Where oh where has the year gone. Wow it's already week 6 for the challenge at http://sketchyfriday.blogspot.com/. This week as soon as I saw the sketch I knew of what I wanted to make. A couple of valentines for a few special people.

 

I made 2 of them both about the same - the 1 is for my daughter and the other for my hubby.

 

I learned a new technique a while back from Leanne at http://createdbyleanne.blogspot.com/2012/09/show-me-your-technique-tuesday.html. I thought it was so pretty and just made a huge statement.

 

I did not use a digi stamp this time but I still think it was pretty fun.

 

For this it's simple just cut/stamp and assemble.

 

I used the heart stamp from Emma at www.creativetimeforme.com and the sentiment is actually from SRM stickers.

 

Simple yet fun card.

 

I for my daughters card I added a little bow and rhinestones, but for my husbands I simply just put a few black rhinestones on it.

 

 

Hope you like it and

CCR Welding challenge

Once the Cricut Craft room went I live I started to play around with it a bit. I loved being able to play and delete the project and/or being able to upload to the Gypsy. For this project I just cut from CCR w/ my mini.

I wanted to make my daughter's Valentines so I began thinking about it and looking at Pinterest for some cute little quick ideas. This was pinned on a friends board and I thought these were perfect. I saw the link for this http://www.skiptomylou.org/2009/02/03/printable-valentines/ and thought it was perfect idea.I love how easy but cute these little butterflies were.
I went ahead and welded 2 hearts from Arts Philosophy at 3.5" together to form the wings. The added hearts were cut at 1" and .75".
I punched 2 holes to hold the sucker.
The paper is from Recollections Butterfly Wings line -- it was just the cheap paper but worked really well for this.

Stampped the back with Emma's stamps - Classmates Valentines. I thought it would be fun to stamp them on the back. I will give credit to my 3 year old she actually helpped put the hearts on the wings and stampped the back of them. She loved stamping them.

I will be entering this http://cricutcraftroomblog.blogspot.com/2012/01/ccr-welding-challenge-with-great-prize.html.
