So keep checking out all of the wonderful projects she is creating as well as all of her friends  ! I promise you will be very Inspired !! 

      For my project Ruthie asked that I make anything "Summer" so chose to use my Imagine and make a super simple, quick and easy card ! 

        The cart I chose to use is the Imagine More Cart  

The size I used was 5 in. which ended up making a 7 1/2 x 5 1/2 card 

I used Twine from a Twine share, with some of the other ladies. Some black bling for the eyes on the bird and Tempting Turquoise Cardstock by Stampin Up. Stamp used is from Scrappy Moms. There you have it, an easy yet very nice simple card! :)

Today is the start of a all new Cricut Cardz Challenge. I fell off the radar for a bit, but I am back!

This weeks challenge is to make a card using the colors red, white, and blue and with a flag.

I realize that my card is not the traditional red, white and blue flag, but I thought it might be fun to mix it up a bit. I love how the colors and patterns of these papers looked together.

The papers are from K and Company's Confetti 12 x 12 pad and the designer mat pad. The design of the card is from an svg file that I purchased from svgcuts.com, it's called Made in the USA. I welded two of the flags together to form the base of the card.

The sentiment is from My Creative Time's stamp set called, My Little Firecracker.

Tomorrow is the start of an all new Throwback Thursday Challenge!

I hope you have a great day!

Cricut Cradz Challenge #50 and Blog Hop Reminder

Happy Wednesday!

This is my card for the Cricut Cardz Challenge blog. The challenge for this week is to create a card for Christmas, using a card feature from any cart.

 

I just realized that my card really isn't a Christmas card but more of a "winter" card. 

Oh well... you've have day's like that to, right?

 The card was cut from the Sentimentals cart at 10" and the hat (3") and mittens (2") were cut from the Simply Charmed cart.

 I used the new "Snow Cuties" Peachy Keen stamps for the faces. The pink and white twine was purchased from The Twinery.com.

Now head on over to the Cricut Cradz Challenge blog...there's a ton more inspiration just waiting to be soaked up! I can't wait to see what you create! 

Don't forget tomorrow is my "Sneak Peak" for Peachy Keens Winter Release Party. Friday is the blog hop party at 8pm, it starts here.

 Then on Saturday I will be in the So Many Mini Albums Blog Hop!

Both hops will have lots of inspiration and lots of blog candy!

I hope you have a wonderful day!

See you tomorrow!

Cricut Cradz Challenge #49

Happy Wednesday!

This is the card that I designed for the challenge, that starts today on the Cricut Cardz Challenge Blog. I love how it turned out! This weeks challenge is to create a card for Christmas with something that starts with the letter S (Santa, snowflake, sled, sleigh, squirrel, etc) using any 's carts and colors that you want too.

I used the Birthday Bash, Hoot and Hollar, and Christmas Cheer carts.

The squirrel was cut from the Birthday Bash cart at 4", the Santa hat was cut from Hoot and Hollar at 1.25"(I used a Santa hat instead of the party hat.), and the candy cane was cut from Christmas Cheer at 2.5" (I used the candy cane in place of the #1).

I added 3 pieces of small red bling to the Santa hat, in place of the holly, the twine is from The Twinery, and the sentiment is from the Pink by Design, Christmas Wishes stamp set.

The face stamp is from the Peachy Keen Critter Face (Med) stamp set.
