Robot Card

I found this cool paper at Craft Warehouse on clearance for .10 a sheet and I finally found a way to use it.  I found this robot and gears svg for free on line and used my trusty Eclips to do the job! Add a little cuttlebug dot folder and there you go!  I love the way it turned out.

You'll see in my next couple of posts that I'm into Birthday cards right now.

Little Lamb

Ok, my daughter-in-law is going to a baby shower this week and she wanted a creative gift.  We are going to make some vinyl for some onsies (I haven't figured that part out yet), but I wanted to make a card and gift bag for the gift.  I decided to decorate a tin I got at the dollar store instead of the standard gift bag.  It turned out so cute:

I don't like that the white looks pink in these photos.  Someday I'll perfect picture-taking.  This will have to do for now!

I used the cricut craft room basic shapes and the cuttlebug for texture.  What do you think?

Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #62 - Christmas card

Well, I'm barely getting this one in under the gun.  I made it for Freshly made sketches challenge #62.  Thanksgiving is over, I made a trip up to Salem and back in one day and sat down with a few minutes to myself tonight!  What a great week!

I made this nifty little card using my cricut, of course.  I am thinking about purchasing another cutting machine (I can't believe I'm admitting this on-line).  So if anyone has any input I'm looking at the Sillhouette Cameo or the Sizzix Eclips.  I'm stuck and could use help here!  Anyhow, back to this card, I used the Winter Frolic cart for the trees and the Designer's Calender for the number circle.

Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge

I'm entering this little darling in the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge SSSC171.  I'm really enjoying the Authentique paper lines this holiday season.  This one is the Festive line.  I saw a card on pinterest that sparked this design for me.  My biggest fear in life is birds, but I love how pretty they are, strange, right?

Anyhow, I cut the little birdie from the Winter Wonderland cricut cartridge along with the branch and used the cuttlebug to create the embossing on the background paper.

Cooking with Cricut challenge Halloween entry

Well, I was feeling crafty yesterday and put together another entry for Cooking with Cricut.  I'm starting to think ahead for Halloween.  Probably because I got the Over the Hill cart and I'm getting excited about it.  I found this card design on Lezlye's blogspot and fell in love with it!

I used the cat from the Paper Doll Dress up cart, the frame is from Gypsy Wanderings, the border is from Elegant Cakes and of course the cuttlebug.  I try not to use too many cartridges on my cards because it gets so time consuming, but I had nothing better to do yesterday!

Mojo Monday #232

For this weeks Mojo Monday I took out vintage Stampin Up. Farm Fresh! I wanted to use the Miss Caroline paper line from My Minds Eye and it seemed to go pretty well with this stamp set!

Birthday Challenge #46

This is my entry for Birthday Sundaes challenge 46. I love the blue brown combo! I used the cuttlebug A LOT for this card.

Pretty in Pink

My Dad's wife has a line of clothing she sells called CABi. And it is fabulous! I have been designing thank you cards for her. As you can tell the theme is pink, black and white. I used the Forever Young cartridge that I specifically bought with this purpose in mind, but I have used it for so many other purposes. There are great shapes on this cartridge.

Cricut card

This is a card I saw in the Cricut Card magazine and loved the way the colors work together. Plus, hello!, I got to use the Cuttlebug. Geez I'm a nerd!
