Connie Can Crop...Beary Sweet

Hi everyone,

 

Happy New Year to everyone!

 

This is my first post of the year, and my first time uploading a card at a new blog challenge I found a couple of days ago called Connie Can Crop:

                                         

We were are asked to incorporate a bear and/or something sweet.  I immediately thought about Winnie the Pooh - a very cute bear.

 

 

 

 

Paper: Whisper White (SU!), the rest of card stock are from my stash; Other: Pooh and Friends Cricut Cartridge, Doodlecharms Cricut Cartridge (for the present), Blueprints 20 (MFT).

Red, White and Blue Birthday Wishes

Happy Tuesday!

I'm popping in very quickly to share a card I put together last night.  My inspiration came from the Red, White and Blue colors at this week's The Kraft Journal and the simple layout at Seize the Sketch.

 

 

 

 

 

I began with a Kraft card base and some leftover Fourth of July patterned paper from last year's projects.  I believe they are from Pebbles.  The yummy cupcake was cut at 2 3/4 inches from Cricut's Doodlecharms cartridge.  I then mounted it onto a piece of Kraft card stock that I embossed with the Swiss Dots embossing folder.  The image panel is matted on a Night of Navy card stock.  I stamped the sentiment on a scrap of white card stock and adhered it to the cardfront overlapping the image panel.  The Happy Birthday message is from SU! Button Greetings, and was stamped in Early Espresso ink.  The patterned paper is broken up with some Crumb Cake seam binding.  I finished off the card with 2 enamel dots.

Exploring Cricut and More...Happy Easter

Hi Friends,

 

I am playing along today at Exploring Cricut and More Challenge.  We were asked to create a project with an Easter theme.

 

 

 

 

 

I had a blast making this card.  I began with Whisper White card base, and patterned paper from my stash.  I used 4 different cricut cartridges using the Cricut Expression Machine - the chick is from Create a Critter and was cut at 2.5", the decorative frame is from Elegant Edges and was cut at 4", the small Easter eggs are from Doodlecharms and was cut at 2" and the grass is from Plantin Schoolbook and was cut at 1".  The white egg was cut at 5.5 inches and it's also from Doodlecharms, but I created a zig zag pattern on the egg using my scissors.  It looks like the chick is peeking out.  Lastly, I added two pearls to each top corner.
