Cardz TV Bunny Week Challenge

For this challenge, make a card, layout or craft project with a bunny on it.
For this card I cut out the Easter egg and bunny using the Cricut Doodlecharms cartridge.  I can't remember the brand of the paper I used (it has been in my stash for a while now).  I wrapped some Pink Sorbet twine from the Twinery around my card. I used pink Stickles for the nose.  The ink and stamp are from Close to My Heart.  Thanks for taking a look.

Paper Cutz Challenge #84

For challenge #84: Make a card, LO or craft project using 3 patterned papers, and any colors or theme you’d like.

I used base paper from DCWV and the butterfly was cut out using Echo Park Spring paper.  I used the Cricut Paisley cartridge and cut it at 2.5".  The ribbon is from Michaels.  I used Pink Stickles on the butterfly.  Thanks for stopping by.

The challenge for this week is to make a card for Spring, using the colors pink, green, and white ONLY, and any cartridges you'd like.
For my card base and butterfly, I used DCWV.  The background paper is from Making Memories Simply Fabulous Collection - Brooke.  The butterfly was cut from the Cricut Bloom cartridge.  The buttons and ribbon are from Michaels.  The sentiment was printed using Segoe Script font at 18 pt.  The sentiment was punched out using a punch from EK Success.  Of course I had to use Stickles on the butterfly!  Thanks for stopping by and Happy Spring to everyone.

My Pinkalicious Blog Hop


For this challenge we had to make something Spring.  I think everyone is ready for spring!  I made a simple card using DCWV for the base and dragonfly paper.  The striped background paper is from Making Memories.  I cut the dragonfly from Create a Critter (still one of my favorites!) at 3.25 inches.  The ribbon is from Michaels and the stamp is from Scrappy Moms Simple Sentiments set.  The ink is from Stampin Up.  I added Martha Stewart glitter glue to give the card some bling.  Thanks for stopping by.

Throwback Thursday Challenge #175 and Paper Cutz Challenge #81

For both the My Creative Time Challenge and the Paper Cutz Challenge the theme was to make a project for St. Patrick's Day.  I used the Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge to cut out my shamrock and then inked around the edges.  The background paper is from DCWV.  I embossed the light green paper using my Cuttlebug.  I added ribbon from Michaels and then added some bling using my IRock tool.  The stamp and ink are from Close to my Heart.  Thanks for stopping by today!
