Here are the cards I'm sending out for Thanksgiving this year. I found the images on the Celebrate with Flourish cartridge.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

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

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!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
I used this sketch to inspire a birthday card. The candle image is on the Birthday Bash cartridge.</div>

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.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
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.</div>

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

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!</div>

I cut the tag and the shadow from Plantin Schoolbook, and the cupcake is from Birthday Bash. I glittered the cherry, and it's hard to tell in the picture but I also put Glossy Accents on the sprinkles. I stamped my sentiment on a hand cut banner and finished the tag off with some ribbon.</div>

Kids Theme</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Create a project for kids<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
For my project, I created a card using the Twinkle Toes cartridge. Some good friends of ours recently had their second baby girl. When we go to meet their new baby we're going to take their older girl (recently promoted to Big Sister!) a little gift too. This is the card I made for her.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I think the little ballerinas on this cartridge are so cute! I hid the face cuts in Cricut Craft Room so I could use one of my Peachy Keen Stamps for her face. A crinkle ribbon bow, topped off with a twine bow and button, and a few gems finish off the card.</div>

I've had a bit going on lately and took a little break from crafting and blogging. But, I've had some time lately and think I'm getting back in to the swing of things. So here I am - hopefully a bit more frequently again!<br />
<br />
Some good friends of my sweetie and mine just had their second baby - a little girl. We're headed to see them soon so we can meet the newest addition to their family. So of course I had to make a card for their precious little one!<br />

<a href="http://diecuttindivas.blogspot.com/">Die Cuttin Divas</a> is having a "Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!" challenge this week. What perfect inspiration to pull out my Teddy Bear Parade cartridge! I saw this sweet baby bear image and thought it would be great for a baby card.<br />

Create a project that represents the tastes of summer<br />

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.</div>

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.</div>

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!!<br />
<br />
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:<br />

<br />
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:<br />

Anything Goes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Show us your projects!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
For my project, I got my inspiration from Pinterest, <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/38773246763123933/">here</a>. I'm still trying to get my wedding scrapbooks finished up, and I had a basket full of the cards we received that I wanted to do something with. I saw this on Pinterest a while back, and thought it was the perfect way to keep our wedding cards. Here's my version:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhxVcXYJomgNAbIM-6DaP9zz75G-qTBrxNr1MVPBUm3kHF8t706rfYf9gnAzqCKzwYJdybq9KzGEcpOj11nXzTtJdvFk-F1Er_97RQfOoNHmpIZvyX4ILIpKS3pi-ERSfw0mhs9odPetg/s1600/photo+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhxVcXYJomgNAbIM-6DaP9zz75G-qTBrxNr1MVPBUm3kHF8t706rfYf9gnAzqCKzwYJdybq9KzGEcpOj11nXzTtJdvFk-F1Er_97RQfOoNHmpIZvyX4ILIpKS3pi-ERSfw0mhs9odPetg/s1600/photo+1.JPG" height="320" width="234" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
The colors are the colors we used for our reception - the papers are actually left over from various projects I made around the time of our wedding! The front and back covers are two layers of chipboard glued together, then covered in cardstock. I added a monogram to from the Tie the Knot cartridge to the front cover. The ribbon is attached to the back cover with two brads, and then simply comes around the "book" to tie in the front. The metal ring is 3.5" - the largest one I could find. The book is a bit overstuffed, but it still works!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

This weekend, my sweetie and I attended a surprise birthday party for a good friend of mine from work. We started on the same day, and were working on the same project for a short while, and became great friends during that time. Her mother came in town, which she was expecting, but so did her brother and sister-in-law, which was another surprise! So fun!! Anyway, on to my card......</div>

I defaulted to one of my favorite cartridges for birthday cards - Birthday Bash. I saw the cute mouse coming out of the present, and thought, "How perfect for a surprise birthday party!"</div>

This card was inspired by the three flower brads I used. I was wondering what I could use instead of three squares of paper and came across these brads in my stash of supplies. Once I saw those, I went looking for an image to go with them and found this pot of flowers on the Freshly Picked Cartridge.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
A little more searching through my stash and I found a fun sentiment to accompany the brads and flowers, and my card was coming together!</div>

<br />
My sweetie and I played in a golf tournament this morning, then took his Dad out to lunch. We weren't able to spend time with my Dad today, since he lives out of state. We'll just have to do something nice for him next time we see him!<br />
<br />
I thought I'd share the quick card I put together for my Grandpa for Father's Day.<br />
<br />

<br />
I found this cute card on the Summer Celebrations cartridge. It made a cute window card, but since I wanted to be able to write a message inside without taking away from the framed sentiment, I adhered pattern paper on the inside of the front of the card.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I thought the card needed a little something after I put it together, so I added the faux stitching around the frame. Very quick and simple card!<br />

<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">My dad is a big golfer, so I tend to go with golf-themed cards for him. I got the Summer Celebrations cartridge a while back (but had yet to use it!) and I remembered it had a golfer image on it. As I was looking at the handbook for the cartridge, I realized it also had a card feature.</span></h4>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-pMB8BA4UWwFTOQS0zRfjWYT31sRJP9_m9PKSFoxJF2dyT4YN59MXwyskIx2HKXlfOUR5CC-WwhdlobOvVErVMAK5rwry-D3DmucmLL_xeipuBixIOWPYe4XQePSImxlBzKwPiDRaTzE/s1600/photo+2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-pMB8BA4UWwFTOQS0zRfjWYT31sRJP9_m9PKSFoxJF2dyT4YN59MXwyskIx2HKXlfOUR5CC-WwhdlobOvVErVMAK5rwry-D3DmucmLL_xeipuBixIOWPYe4XQePSImxlBzKwPiDRaTzE/s1600/photo+2.JPG" height="320" width="184" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The card feature for this image has the card base and the black frame layer, and has a window around the golfer. I decided I didn't want a window into this card, so I took some pattern paper that remind me of grass and sky colors and adhered it on the inside of the front of the card.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0E6f5gDrvsfHPyr6rOf69vgLHtbG4Ra2Ezl_Y5fST3KA-MksT5YoYsVRAKxlh7yBUAfhUhV_aqK29h2CM_1iXZSMQZonJtD0LpB8ppEESPPD_mlPL5iAyFNdOGWhoVwD1cAr4tSjgO78/s1600/photo+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0E6f5gDrvsfHPyr6rOf69vgLHtbG4Ra2Ezl_Y5fST3KA-MksT5YoYsVRAKxlh7yBUAfhUhV_aqK29h2CM_1iXZSMQZonJtD0LpB8ppEESPPD_mlPL5iAyFNdOGWhoVwD1cAr4tSjgO78/s1600/photo+1.JPG" height="320" width="144" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And there you have it! The card feature made this card come together really quickly.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
This challenge works perfectly for me, because one of my sweetie's younger cousins graduated from high school yesterday! His school colors are purple and gold, so of course I had to incorporate those colors into my card.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The image of the graduate is from the Create a Friend cartridge. I love how he's holding a little diploma! It's hard to tell in my pictures, but I embossed the purple mat with a zig zag embossing folder.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
I dressed up the inside of the card just a little bit too. Since my card base was black, I wanted to have a lighter color mat inside to write our message on. I kept with his school colors and used gold cardstock for the mat and used my photo corner chomper to dress it up a little bit.</div>

Hello and Happy Saturday! I hope your weekend is off to a good start!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Not too long ago, I found some box card files in the Silhouette store. I have been playing around with them, and I have to say - I love them! A couple posts back, I shared a box card with flowers that I made for Mother's Day. Well, here's another one I made to celebrate a birthday.</div>

<br />
These box cards come together so easily. They look like they might take a while to put together, but they really don't. My only fear with them is that people won't know how to open them up when they receive them. But, I've watched 2 recipients open them now, and they seem to figure it out quickly enough on their own! :-)<br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Celebrate Mom</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Create a project that celebrates mom.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
For my project, I used one of the files from the Cards for Moms SVG Kit from <a href="http://svgcuts.com/">SVGCuts</a>. This kit comes with files to make 7 different cards!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnJRLlKzxn82I8GFjI8RFSgiEq2c8GoWRp9gNi-eNLnSREeqFDxsEclX3tMdO6BtZfeAeO1rlxazYVSBKALPj_Jo5PJzaaoZkuPGxLuNRD_VzakCH_dMAY8_F-en_XASuNaG7vs0Nw43Y/s1600/photo+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnJRLlKzxn82I8GFjI8RFSgiEq2c8GoWRp9gNi-eNLnSREeqFDxsEclX3tMdO6BtZfeAeO1rlxazYVSBKALPj_Jo5PJzaaoZkuPGxLuNRD_VzakCH_dMAY8_F-en_XASuNaG7vs0Nw43Y/s1600/photo+1.JPG" height="320" width="261" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
I love the shape of the card base in this file. The file comes with all the layers/frames and 'MOM' with a shadow. I decided to not use the MOM sentiment that came with the file and instead found this script Mom on the Beyond Birthdays cartridge.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKgsDrlm_nPJwkLn1k5xykil4t6uePmw5rlCw8Ax2oY9S8GnolnDcOi35MwwdvShC3iIcOAZ-zTdcnjI2nIzvcso0Fw86T7Q2nt8Op8SIDQUYnpb1JrY5FHHBYs2VNu98_pDNZnRxMU7g/s1600/photo+2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKgsDrlm_nPJwkLn1k5xykil4t6uePmw5rlCw8Ax2oY9S8GnolnDcOi35MwwdvShC3iIcOAZ-zTdcnjI2nIzvcso0Fw86T7Q2nt8Op8SIDQUYnpb1JrY5FHHBYs2VNu98_pDNZnRxMU7g/s1600/photo+2.JPG" height="320" width="189" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
This card came together really easily. The SVGCuts file came with instructions, so it's really easy to know what the different pieces are. I made another card from the Cards for Moms Kit that I'll be sharing in a couple days. Be sure to come back to check it out!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I hope you decide to join in the fun with us this week. Remember, to qualify for the prize, you must 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!</div>

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there! I couldn't celebrate with my mom today, because she is all the way in Arizona. But thanks to technology, I was able to FaceTime her and wish her a happy day! My sweetie and I played golf this morning, then went to brunch with his dad and step-mom and her parents. It was a nice day!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is the card I made for my sweetie's step-mom for Mother's Day. I found some great box card files in the Silhouette store recently and have had so much fun making them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The box card came together really easily! There is a very helpful YouTube video that shows how to put the box cards together. Once I watched the video, I had no trouble assembling the card.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
These cards are great because they fold flat and fit in an A2 envelope. I love that these fun cards can be folded flat and mailed!<br />
<br />
I hope everyone had a great weekend and a wonderful Mother's Day!<br />

Paper Fun</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Create a project that uses Patterned Paper<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
I've been (slowly!) trying to get my wedding album finished. This album will be full of pictures family and friends took on our wedding day.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
This two page layout is pretty simple. I was thrilled that I was able to fit 13 pictures on these pages!! The pattern papers came from My Mind's Eye Lost and Found 3 and Love Me paper pads.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Two thin strips of striped paper frame two 6x6 square of pattern paper on the left page. I also fit 5 pictures, the title and a cluster of hearts on this page.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
The right page is a collage of 8 pictures. The triangle banner is from the Lost and Found 3 accessory pack. I'm happy to have two more pages of my wedding album done - now I just need to keep working on more wedding layouts!!</div>

When I was at one of the local craft stores not too long ago, I was flipping through a pad of paper from The Paper Studio and this paper with the rain boots on it jumped out at me. I thought it was so cute! When I saw this challenge, I knew it would be perfect. I love the bright colors, especially since I've been seeing so many grey skies lately!!</div>
