Thank You or Thanksgiving Card

Here are the cards I'm sending out for Thanksgiving this year.  I found the images on the Celebrate with Flourish cartridge.


These cards came together pretty quickly.  I added my sentiment from an old My Pink Stamper set and twine from The Twinery.


I hope you'll join in the fun with us this week at FCCB and link up your Thanksgiving projects!  Remember, to qualify for the prize you must include at least one Cricut cut on your project - if it isn't obvious, be sure to tell us which one you used.  Thanks for stopping by!

I used this sketch to inspire a birthday card.  The candle image is on the Birthday Bash cartridge.


I plan to use this birthday card for a guy, so I kept it pretty simple and only added Stickles to the flames of the candles.


I hope this sketch inspires you and that you'll join in the fun with us this week!  Remember, to qualify for the prize, be sure to use at least 1 Cricut cut on your project and if it's not obvious, let us know what cartridge you use.  Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome to another Challenge Me Monday at FCCB!


Challenge #235 Anything Goes

This Weeks Sponsor

The son of one of my sweetie's best friends recently celebrated his first birthday.  The theme of the party was Mickey Mouse, so I made this card for him.

The number 1 is from the Birthday Bash cartridge and the Mickey Mouse image is from Mickey and Friends.  I kept the card pretty simple since it's for a one-year old!


I hope you'll join in the fun with us this week and link up your Cricut projects at FCCB.  Remember, anything goes, so as long as your project has at least one Cricut cut, you qualify for the prize!  Thanks for stopping by!

FCCB 233 - Color Challenge

Welcome to another Challenge Me Monday at FCCB!


Challenge #233 Color Challenge

Color Challenge
Use the colors brown, orange, yellow, red

For my project, I created this fun fall card.

I found this leaf image on the Doodlecharms cartridge.  I cut the image in 3 different sizes, flipping one of them.  I embossed them with 3 different embossing folders then put them on the card base using pop dots.


A double twine bow and sentiment finish off my card.  Pretty simple, but I'm happy with how it turned out.

I hope you'll join in the fun with us this week at FCCB!  Remember, to qualify for the prize, be sure to use at least 1 Cricut cut on your project and if it's not obvious, let us know what cartridge you used.  Thanks for stopping by!

Shape Up: Make a shaped card


I decided to make a fun birthday card this week. I found the shaped card and the cute hippo on the Birthday Bash cartridge.  The card shape came with the "celebrate" already layered on it - perfect!


It's hard to tell in my pictures, but I added Glossy Accents to the sentiment and glitter to the ice cream.

I used this sketch as inspiration for the last page in my wedding album.  I had to tell my husband, it's the last page physically in the album, not the last page I have to make - LOL!


I made a 6.5 x 6.5 inch envelope and instead of folding the top flap down like you would to seal an envelope, I tucked it inside.  This gave me a square pocket, where you can see a bit of the same paper I used for the background peeking through at the top.  Then I cut a smaller square of paper and adhered it to my envelope and added the bride and groom image from the Wedding cartridge.  This created a pocket where I put a DVD with the video from our wedding ceremony.  I found the font for my sentiment on the Something to Remember cartridge.  A pretty simple page, but I really like it!

I hope this sketch will inspire you to create something wonderful and that you'll join in the fun at FCCB this week!  Remember, to qualify for the prize, be sure to use at least 1 Cricut cut on your project and if it's not obvious, let us know what cartridge you used.  Thanks for stopping by!
