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.

Baby Buggy

On October 11, 2012, I became a grandma again for the 3rd time!  Another baby boy!  Very exciting.  He came a month ahead of time, coinsidentally on the same day my third son was getting married, so the 10-11-12 date is especially special to us!  He is strong and healthy and that's all we need, however the babes needed clothes.  So I packed up a box of preemie clothes and sent it off to Arizona with this little card to go with it!

I cut the buggy from the Designer's Calender cartridge (which I love) and the Sweet One stamp is vintage stampin up called So Many Scallops.

Case Study Challenge 115

I made this card for the challenge over at Case Study where the theme is rainbowish.  I thought it would be easy, but turned out to be much harder then I expected.  But here it is!

I cut the leaf from the Designer's Calender cricut cartridge.  Any thoughts?

Gift Bag

This is the gift bag that went with the card. I used Straight From the Nest for the swirls and Designers calender for the carriage. I love the way it turned out!

Baby Shower

A very dear friend of mine is having her baby shower tomorrow night. Baby boy that has already blessed their lives. I can't wait to meet him. I made this card for the event. I used pleated satin ribbon from Stampin Up in Baja Breeze and the carriage is cut from the Designer's Calender Cricut cartridge. The card is a 5 X5 so the squareness made it much easier to center the other squares on the card.

Challenge Me Monday #101

Well, over at Fantabulous Cricut it's time again for Challenge Me Monday and this week's challenge is to use Green! Of course, being March, and St. Patrick's Day just around the corner, guess what the theme is? TAH DAH! I am also in the middle of a love affair with Navy right now (I wonder if there's deeper meaning here, like, does this mean I'm depressed, happy, meloncholy?).
