The Shabby Tea Room Challenge #170

Good Morning!!

Doesn't it look absolutely delicious!! So this is what I came up with!! I originally wanted to do a cupcake card but changed my mind at the last minute. So anyways, here's my card:

Supplies used in this card:

Paper- October Afternoon, My Minds Eye, Little Yellow Bicycle, Bazzill

Chipboard- Cosmo Cricut

Call Me card- October Afternoon

brad- Tim Holtz 

Happy Birthday Card

So, this afternoon I have a fun birthday card to share with you!! I created this for the challenge over at Paper Playtime...."anything goes".

I used the Storybook Cartridge (my all time favorite) to cut out my shape. Beautiful Prima flowers and a handmade stick pin. I stamped my sentiment using a Fiskars stamp set. 

Thank you for stopping by my blog!! I hope you come back to see more!!

...Just Because

Hello fellow crafters!! Today I have a card to share with you. For those of you who know me, know that I can't scrap flat!! Ever!! It's probably one of the hardest things for me, and it goes with my cards too!! I usually always have to add an extra stamp to even mail my cards!!

So anyways, I came across this blog called Cas-ual Fridays the other day that challenges....**drum roll**....clean and simple!!! Eek!!! Totally not me, right!! Well I'm always up for a good challenge and with this being super hard I just had to play along!! And let me tell you...it in fact was HARD!! I love to pump up those embellishments, bring out the foam tape and go to town!! I probably sat at my table for over an hour just figuring out how to do this "clean and simple"!! Haha

So after much thought this is what I came up with!! Yes...I did kinda cheat and grabbed my foam tape for some dimension (I'm telling you...chunky scrapping is an obsession)!! So their challenge for this week was to use banners!!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Fantabulous Cricut Challenge #163

Ribbons...Ruffles....and bows!! Ummm, need I say more?! Haha!! Love putting ribbons and frilly things on my girly cards!!

Okay, so as you have guessed the challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge is to make a project that has ribbons, ruffles or bows on it!! Easy peasy!!

Here is what I came up with:

I cut out the scalloped frame using the Cricut Essentials cartridge!! I've never used that cartridge before...it's got some really cute cuts on it!!

The flower I created immediately after finding this amazing tutorial over at Thoughts of a Cardmaking Scrapbooker.
