Dynamic Duos #38

Hello my friends!

While hubby and my girls were watching the Super Bowl, I snuck in my craft room and created a card for this week's Dynamic Duos.  This week, we were asked to use Real Red and Pretty in Pink.  These colors are perfect for another Valentine's Card! 

My Card:

I wanted to make a fun card and use the Owl Punch as my focal point.  The base is Whisper White, followed by Pink cardstock.  The "XO" paper is from My Mind's Eye Love Me and the pink stripe designer paper is from my stash.  I embossed a piece of red cardstock using the Perfect Polka Dots Folder.  Since I don't have a heart punch small enough for the card, I used the Cricut Cartridge Create a Critter for the 2 balloons, and it worked perfectly!  The sentiment is computer generated, since all of the sentiments I have were too long!  After a couple of hiccups, my card was done!  I really liked how it came out.  Right before taking a picture of it, I added 2 small pearls to the balloons.

Cupcake Craft Room - Anything goes in Autumn

Hello my friends,

Today I am sharing a card I made for this month's Cupcake Craft Room Challenge.  We were asked to create a card with the focus on Autumn.

A couple of weeks ago, I purchased pretty "Fall" paper and matching stickers by Jillibean-Soup.  One of the stickers says "Gobble 'til you Wobble."  I immediately knew I wanted to create a turkey as the focal point of my card:   

I used SU Owl Punch and the 1 3/4 Scallop Punch to create the turkey.  I added some eyes and the beak (a small square folded in half).  I remember making these last year.  They are easy and fun to assemble!
Lastly, I added an orange ribbon and 2 brown rhinestones on each top corner of the card.

Thanks so much for stopping by,
