For this challenge I chose the Pretty Kitty svg file from SVG Cutting Files.

I made this card for my 22 y/o daughter who recently moved to Texas to pursue her Master's Degree at University of Houston-Victoria.  She adores cats and has 2 of her own.  One of which, was a rescue that someone threw off of a bridge!  I made this card to send to her.

HIMCR-Challenge #201-Freestyle

Hello crafty peeps!  This week's challenge @ Hiding in My Craft Room is sponsored by Freckled Fawn.  Check out their products HERE!



On to the challenge.  Unfortunately I didn't have anything from Freckled Fawn's shop to use.  This week's challenge is Freestyle, which is sometimes more difficult than having an assigned task.  LOL.  As chance would have it, my daughter has a birthday party to attend today and the invitation has a cute Minnie Mouse theme....and thus the task was defined.

I made a card for the birthday girl using a Peek-a-boo card cut file from SVG Cutting Files and a Minnie girl cut file from PPbN.  The sentiment and tag are from Jaded Blossom.

Thanks for stopping by, and be sure to check out what my co-DT members have created!  Oh, and don't forget to link up your challenge project @ HIMCR!

Die Cuttin' Divas-Guest Designer May 2015

I have the honor of being this week's Guest Designer at Die Cuttin' Divas Sports Challenge.  Thursday is National Golf Day, so I made a golf cart from the cute file at SVG Cutting Files.

         

I filled a clear treat bag from Jaded Blossom with a few Hershey Nuggets and placed them in the cart.

My hubby doesn't golf, but I have a few friends who do.  So who gets the cart???????

 Your turn to join the challenge, HERE. Thanks for stopping by.  See ya next time!

Happy 90th!

Today I have a card I made for my brother-in-law's grandmother.  She is turning 90 years young and has only asked to receive one more birthday card than she received last year!

The card base and Pumba are files from SVG Cutting Files.  You can no longer get Pumba(he was a hop-goodie), but you can buy the awesome card base HERE.

I used the Add Text feature in Design Space with my Cricut Explore and the Bronze Metallic Pen for my sentiment inside!

I used Party Animal Stamps and Mini Tag Dies 2 dies for my sentiments on the front.  You can find these and lots of other goodies from Jaded Blossom HERE.

 I put Pumba on an Action Wobble for fun.  Cardstock is Stampin' Up! Printed paper is from the Stampin' Up! Birthday Bash Designer Pack.  Please join me in wishing Mrs. Velma Gildon a Very Happy 90th Birthday, and many more to come!

Hoppy Bunny Love

Today, I have a fun Easter treat to share.  I made these for a few friends and family, since we adults don't get visits from the Easter Bunny.

 I used the KawaiiSeaNuggetPlatforms file from SVG Cutting Files for the treat boxes(without the cute sea creatures and background that came with.)  My cute little bunny is from Cricut Create a Critter cartridge(say that 3 times fast.)  My sentiment is from the My Pink Stamper-Even More Punny-licious stamp set and the mat it is on is from Jaded Blossom-Card Mat Dies.  I added a cute little face with my Peachy Keen-Critter Faces stamps.  A few skittles for a little POP, and filled them with 3 Hershey Nugget candies.

 And for a little extra fun, I put my bunnies on the platform with an Action Wobble!

Plan to enter a few challenge with this project:

Anna Claire is turning 9!

So my baby girl is having her 9th birthday in a few weeks.  We are throwing her party at the Skating Rink with a Rockin' 50's theme.  Today's project is a birthday card I made to give to her.

I made the card 5 1/4 x 4, using a 5 /14 x 12 sheet of cardstock, scored at 2", 4", 8",& 10".  Then I added some cute paper from My Mind's Eye-Happy Day 6x6 mat.

This cutie is an SVG file from SVG Cutting Files called Jukebox Jenna 50's Girl.  You can find her HERE.

The jukebox and the little birdies are from the Cricut Nifty Fifties cartridge.

I used quite a few items from Jaded Blossoms for my sentiments and inside of my card.  

You can find these goodies and more HERE.

This is what it looks like when you open it up!

 I used a piece of Stampin' Up! bakers twine on the Party Time tag!

I put Jenna(Anna Claire) on with an Action Wobble for fun!!

Now she can dance to the music!

Happy Easter 2015

I have another card today.  I used SVG files from Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbon and SVG Cutting Files.  I also used a cut from the Cricut Simply Charmed cartridge.

This card is an A2 sized card that I plan to give to a friend.  Is was super simple and fun to make.  Most of the papers I used were from my scrap bin, but the card base was Stampin' Up! and the Printed paper is a sheet from the "Happy Day" paper pad from My Mind's Eye. 

You can order this file from SVG Cutting Files HERE.

You can order this file from Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbon HERE.

You can order this cartridge from Cricut.com HERE.

I used a sentiment from Stampin' Up! Whimsical Words on white cardstock, popped up with Stampin' Up! dimensionals on a teal scallop on a pink circle and popped up on the card.  I also added a few flowers with a skittle in the middle.  I used an Action Wobble to place my Easter basket with the little chickie in it to my card.  Action Wobbles make cards so much fun!

I plan to enter a few challenges with this card.

Dragon Birthday Card

My DH and I love Game of Thrones.  His birthday is Wednesday, so I made this card using a file I was fortunate enough to receive from Ann over at SVG Cutting Files.  The file is no longer available, but she has some amazing files that can be used with a multitude of cutting machines.

I used Stampin'Up! cardstock and inks.  Sentiment inside and out from Jaded Blossom Stamps!  I also used a die from Jaded Blossom for the scallop circle on the front.  And of course I used my Cricut Explore to create the card and my Cuttlebug to add the super cool scales to my dragon. Hope you like it. I plan to enter this card in the FCC, BBTB2, and DCD Challenges.  See you next week!
