Wet and Wild

Create a project related to water

I sent this card to my mom for her birthday.  She lives in Arizona and has a pool in her backyard and enjoys spending the hot afternoons soaking in her pool.  So when I saw this image I immediately thought of her, and hoped that she was able to spend some time relaxing in the pool on her birthday!

This image is from the Pack Your Bags cartridge.  I added a little gemstone to the flower on the girl's swimcap, and a crinkle ribbon and twine bow finish off the card.

I hope you will join in the fun at FCCB this week!  Remeber, 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!

FCCB #218 - Summer Treats

Happy Monday and welcome to another Monday challenge at FCCB!

Challenge #218  Summer Treats

Summer Treats

Create a project that represents the tastes of summer

I love eating ice cream in the summer.  Well, to be honest, I love eating ice cream any time of the year, but I especially love it during the summer!  So, when I saw this challenge, I set off on a mission to find a fun ice cream image, and found this ice cream sundae on the Summer Celebrations cartridge.

It's hard to tell in my pictures, but I added Glossy Accents to the cherry and the hot fudge.  A twine bow and button, and a Jaded Blossom sentiment finish off the card.

I hope you'll join in the fun with us this week and link up your Summer Treats creations over 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 today!!

Happy Fourth!

Happy Fourth of July!  Do you all have fun plans for today??  My sweetie and I are heading over to a friend's house this evening for some food and fun.  Well, as I was getting ready this morning, I realized I did not have a festive shirt to wear today.  Local craft store (thankfully open on the holiday!!) and Silhouette to the rescue!!

I ran to the store and picked up some heat transfer vinyl and a plain red tee shirt.  Then came back home and found the perfect image - this week's free image in the Silhouette store!  A little cutting, weeding and ironing later, and I had this:

My sweetie was off playing golf today and when I sent him a picture of my shirt, I immediately got a text back from him asking me to make one for him.  So, one more trip to the craft store for another red shirt!!  He wanted his just a little different though, and this is what we came up with:

I think we're ready for our Fourth of July celebrations!!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a fabulous holiday weekend!
