Connie Can Crop & Crafty Boots...Love is in the Air

Hi,

 

Just a quick post - my card for this month's Connie Can Crop - I do! and Crafty Boots Challenge - Love is in the Air:



 

 



I used the Formal Occasion Cricut Cartridge to cut out the beautiful heart.  All paper is from DCWV.  I hope you can see it, but I also wrapped some tulle in back of the heart, for a little touch of elegance.

Popping in with a quick post of  a simple card that I created for Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge.  This week's colors are one of my favorite color combos:

                                   

I had a vision of creating a little envelope, and having a sweet note pop out when you opened the envelope, and that's exactly how my card turned out.

 

 

 

This card is for my hubby, one of 2 cards that I will give him for Valentine's this year.  I hope he likes it.

Exploring Cricut...Be My Valentine

Happy Monday,

I have a card to share with you for this week's Exploring Cricut.  We were asked to create a project with a Valentine theme.

My card:

I began with Crumb Cake card base, followed by some pretty patterned paper from my stash.  I happened to have Love You a Latte cartridge on my desk, since I was working on some projects, so I decided to use it for this challenge.  I cut the to-go cup and all layers at 4 1/2" - perfect size for an A2 card.  I used Whisper White, Tan, Chocolate Chip and Real Red card stock.  I cut a small tag at 1 1/4" using the Elegant Edges cartridge.  I then placed 2 small hearts using a puncher, and a small red rhinestone to one of the hearts.  To finish it off, I wrapped the lid with Red Baker's Twine and tied it to the tag.

Adding my card to:
The Pink Elephant - Challenge # 237 Happy Valentine's Day
Fussy & Fancy - Challenge #107 "Be My Valentine"

Thanks for taking a peek,

The Card Concept #1

Hello Friends,

There is a new challenge blog called The Card Concept.  This is an exciting challenge, since you have 6 style themes to choose from!  I couldn't resist not making a Valentine's card using this color combo:

My card:

I decided to go with a Clean and Simple (CAS) card.  The card base is Very Vanilla, with another layer of the same card stock.  The branch was die-cut from Espresso card stock using the Memory Box Woodland Branch and the swing was die-cut from Kraft card stock using the Memory Box Set of Swings.  The tree was hand drawn.  Two pink hearts were adhered to the swing using some dimensionals.  The sentiment is from Inspired By Stamping Be Mine, and was stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
