EASTER PAIL

Hello Everyone,

I made this Easter Pail for my grandaughter for Easter, also did a blue one for my grandson also.  This was all done in vinyl on Cricut Explore Air.  I am so happy with this machine.  I love how it cuts the vinyl so perfectly.  I created this whole scene in Design Space, cut it out and here it is.

I am entering this pail in Cards TV  3-D Challenge.  Come over and join in the fun.

Hope everyone enjoys their Easter.

CRICUT EXPLORE AIR

Hi Everyone,

It's been ages since I posted anything.  I was away last summer and when I got back I was busy with my fair that I do every November, and then I was busy shopping for Christmas and decorating and getting ready for Christmas. I guess that no excuse, but hopefully I'll be back to post some projects real soon.  

This is what I got for Christmas, boy was I surprised.  I just love the Explore. I'm been spending my time learning about the machine. My name and butterflies on the machine is the first vinyl piece I cut.  I think it came out pretty good for the first time cutting vinyl. I really like working with it.  

Well that's about it for now and I'll be back with more projects.  

Thanks for looking.

BUTTERFLY AND PEARLS CARD

Hello my crafty friends,

I have been seeing a lot of white on white cards lately and I have been wanting to try one.  So here is my take on white on white.

It an A2 size card in White Texture card stock.  I embossed the mat with the Darice Butterfly folder twice. One I cut out the Butterflies since I don't have a butterfly punch and glued them on each butterfly. I added the pearls and the ribbon and that was it.  Easy pease and very quick. I think it makes a beautiful wedding or shower card.  


I am going to enter this card into the Sweet Stamps Challenge "Pearls"  HERE.  Come join in the fun.

POSTIT NOTE HOLDER

Hi Friends,

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend, at least the weather is co-operating for a change.

Today I made a Postit Note Holder. I got this inspiration from Emma over at My Creative Time. You can find the video HERE. I think it came out so cute.

The base is cardstock from Bazzill and the pattern paper is from DCWV. The flowers are a die from My Creative Time.  These are the colors of my bedroom, so its perfect next to my telephone.

I'm going to enter this into the 3-D challenge "Flowers"  over at Cardz TV HERE.


Hope you like my 3-D Project.  Thanks for stopping by and leaving such nice comments. Stop by again soon.

PINK BIRDIE CARD

Hi Everyone,

Glad you stopped by today.  I made this cute birdie card today. I think this bird is so adorable and it also matches the pattern paper....it reminds me so much of spring.

My card measures 5.50" x 6" and the pattern paper is from Heidi Grace Designs. I cut the bird from create a critter at 2" and tulips at 2.25". The white mat behind him and his wing I ran through the cuttlebug with the Swiss Dots folder. The grass is cut from Plantin Schoolbook, and the fence is a Martha Stewart Punch.

My card is an A2 sz. (4.25" x 5.5") Shadow Box card. Base cs is from Bazzill and the pattern paper is from DCWV Citrus Stack. I die cut the middle of the front w/a spellbinders die and scored the sides at 1/2" & 1". I cut the grass from Plantin Schoolbook at 1.5". The boy & umbrella and accessories were from Everyday Paper Dolls and cut at 2". The clouds and the rain were cut from Create A Critter and also cut at 2". I stamped the boys face with PK stamp Everday faces. I embossed the clouds and the grass w/Swiss Dots. I tied a bow with bakers twine and added some buttons to each of the corners. Sentiment is from the computer.

White mat was die cut with the Lawn Fawn Rectangle Stitch Die
I colored the girl with my copics

Hope you are all doing well.  I made this card for Mothers Day (I'm trying to get a little ahead). I am usually so behind.  It just so happens that Bitten By The Bug 2 is having a flower challenge.  I'm going to enter this card into the challenge.  Come join in the fun.

The flowers were cut at 3/4" from Creat A Critter and the leaves are a MS Punch. The grass was cut from Plantin Schoolbook at 1" and the fence is also a MS Punch. I stickled the Wheelbarrel and put tiny pearls for the flower centers. The sentiment is from the computer (thought I had a stamp but I didn't LOL) and was cut from a EK Success punch.

SCENE CARD

Hello everyone,

Hope everyone is ready for Easter. I still have a few things to do yet, but I'm getting there.

 My card today is a scene card. It's a A2 size card. The mat is some cloud pattern paper I had in my stash. The tree is an Darice Embossing folder that I colored with my copics. After I colored it I decided I wanted it to pop up so I fussy cut it and used foam tape on the back. I cut the bird cage from the April Showers cartridge. It's hung with Twine from the Twinery.  The grass is cut from Plantin Schoolbook Cart. The white fence is a Martha Stewart Punch.

I'm entering this card in the Die Cut Diva's "In The Garden" Challenge and Craftin Desert Diva's Linky "Anything Goes" Party.   

I hope you like my card.  Thanks so much for leaving a comment, I really enjoy reading them.
