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 Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there!

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!

I thought I'd share the quick card I put together for my Grandpa for Father's Day.

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.

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!

Thanks for stopping by!!

FCCB #214 - Celebrate Dad

  Happy Monday and welcome to another Monday challenge at FCCB!

Challenge #214 Celebrate Dad
Create a project for dad OR a masculine project

This Weeks Sponsor

$50.00 Giftcard to SVG Cuts and a BIG SHOT!

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.

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.

And there you have it!  The card feature made this card come together really quickly.  I hope you'll join in the fun with us this week at FCCB and link up your Father's Day or other masculine projects!  Please remember, you may use stamps, SVG cuts and die cuts, but you must use at least 1 Cricut cut to qualify for the prize!!  Please be sure to tell use what cartridge you used somewhere in your description.  Thanks for stopping by!
