SIP.. Anything But a Card!

Hi everyone,

 

The challenge this week at SIP is to create anything but a card:

 

                                                 

                

 

I created 2 wine tags; one for Christmas and one for Thanksgiving.  Since I don't have a wine tag die, I created my own template. I used some old Martha Stewart stickers that I bought at Michael's in clearance several years ago.  The sentiment was computer generated.

 

 

 

For my Thanksgiving tag, I used a retired Stampin Up stamp set for the sentiment (which I can't remember the name of it).  For the Fall leaves, I used Creative Memories leaf cutter paper punch (one of my favorites - I've had it for about 20 years!).

  

 

Enjoy your weekend,



Be My Valentine

Hey everyone,

 

I'm combining a couple of challenges for my card tonight - 4 to be exact: 

 

The Paper Players - Will you be my Valentine?  (no more than 4 challenges)

Connie Can Crop - Stamp your Heart Out (include a stamp on your project)

The Card Concept - Love & Romance (Classy and Elegant)

Fantabulous Cricut Challenge - Valentine's Day (use at least 1 cricut cut)                 

                                                         

 I was inspired by this popular typewriter by We R Memory.  I LOVE the color!

                           

             

 

Wishing everyone a great week!

Exploring Cricut and More Challenge ... Wedding Card

Happy Thursday,

I'm popping in very quickly to share a card for this week's Exploring Cricut and More challenge.    This week's theme is Wedding.  I happened to have my Cricut Expression machine out, so I decided to create a quick and simple wedding card.

 

I began my card with Whisper White card stock base, followed with Basic Black card stock.  The pretty patterned paper is from Little Yellow Bicycle Swoon 6X6 Paper Pad.  The pretty doily is part of the paper!  I just love the way it looks.  I then took a piece of grey card stock and embossed it with SU! Vintage Wallpaper.  I divided the top and bottom of the card with some black Grosgrain ribbon. The wedding cake is from Creative Memories' Divine Wedding cartridge, and was cut at 2 1/4 inches.  I happened to have a matted oval laying around, so I decided to use it for this card.  For some added details, I adhered a small pearl to each tier of the cake.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by,
