Second Christmas Card for 2011

Here is another card I did for the cattlemen silent auction. I got the cow from Country Life and remembered that My Pink Stamper had a cute sentiment, "Have a moo-velous day" so I used that stamp and added Holi to day!! I am still looking for "cow ideas" if anyone has suggestions, please pass along to me!!

Bookmark card for a special friend

I made this card for a friend who loves to read. She came to visit me last week-end and I loved having her come to Tennessee! We had a great time and so I wanted to send her a thank you card for the visit.
Very simple card to make.

Had fun doing this little owl card for the challenge. I used an owl from Twinkle Toes cardrige, some twine, stickles and wiggle eyes. The stamp is from Stamps of Life and says "Happy Owl-oween".

Now to get busy and make 6 more for all my other granddies!

Flower Shoppe Cartridge!

Ok, I am just about finished with updating my blog for today!! I have been so busy getting ready for the college class I will be teaching and doing a bit of scrapping that I have forgotten to load my pictures with the cards. I got the Flower Shoppe cartridge and I love it. The directions in the booklet are a bit lacking (or they were for me) so I looked on Youtube and found several great tutorials that helped me get started with this cartridge. I plan to use it a lot and think I will have fun creating my own flowers. I did this card and used some teeny-tiny roses. Pretty simple design but the little flowers added a nice touch. Thanks for looking, TATA!

Flutter By!

Sometimes you just need a card to say "HI" to someone and I made up this card for just that time. It was very simple, that is my style but I think the sentiment give a nice message. Thanks for looking, TATA

Book Worm

My granddaughter started kindergarten this year and she loves it. We designed this card and made one for her teacher. She said she wanted her teacher to know that she is a true "book worm"! We used the Create a Critter cartridge for the worm, Recess cartridge for the pile of books and a stamp from My Pink Stamper for the sentiment. It is so important to impress the value of reading to our children and grandchildren and I love it that all my "grandies" love books! My children did also and they are passing the joy of reading on to their children. Thanks for looking, TATA

Coffee Card

I had some cute coffee paper in my stash and wanted to make a card, so I went to mycutsearch.com and found a really nice coffee cup border on the Wall Decor cartridge! I love that search site. I cut the border and used a stamp set I had for the sentiment and the little coffee beans. I popped up the border with some mounting tape. I could smell the coffee brewing while I was making this cute card, so, of course I headed to the kitchen and made a pot of fresh coffee.

Paper Cutz and Bitten by Bug2 challenges

I made this card for two challenges this week. I took the "R" slide from the Speaking of School cartridge and put it on some school paper I had. The Paper Cutz challenge was to use only 3 colors and I used red, black and white.
I stamped the word "recess" with some Stamps of Life alphabet stamps and used some twine and stickles for extras!
Thanks for looking and TATA!

Tacky Tuesday Challenge

Tacky Tuesday berry challenge for this card. I used some strawberry paper for the base, then stamped my sentiment, "You're berry special to me" and attached that to a label from the Lacy Label cartridge.

Paper Cutz # 102

I made this card for the Paper Cutz 102 challenge. I used my Life is a Beach cartridge for the cuts. The whale is on page 70 and I cut it as 2 3/4inches. I cut the wave border found on page 45 in three colors at 1 3/4 inches.
I use the bubbles folder with my Cuttlebug for the background. I added some stickles and there you have it. The stamp from from My Pink Stamper folder called Punnylicious. Wish I was under the sea today, the temp has been about 97 degree with terribly high humidity in southern TN.
Thanks for looking, y'll.

Cooking with Cricut Bunny Challenge # 44

Hi, for this challenge I used the bunny from Kates ABCs cartridge, it is so cute! I stamped "Some Bunny Loves You" with a stamp from My Pink Stamper collection called Even More Punnylicious. Funny story about this. I peeled off the stamp and got busy doing something else. When I got back to making the card, I could not find the little stamp, uggg. I looked and looked and finally found it on the back of a Cricut mat. Moral to all this, do not try to multi-task at the ripe old age of 67!
Thanks for looking at my card.

Summer Dress

It is so hot in southern TN! I made this split side-step card with a nice cool looking summer dress today. I used a stamp from Pink by Design from her "Summer Dresses" stamp set. It helped me "kool" off for the day!
Thanks for looking!

Fun Visit

Hi y'all!
I had the opportunity to visit Mary from CardzTV Monday and had such a nice time with her. She is truly an inspiration to me and to so many of us in the craftiing world. She helped me with a video and took time to make a short one with me in her studio. We laughed and laughed, but we made it through the almost 4 minutes as seriously as we could!
Thx again Mary!

Lighthouse Card

I made this card for a friend who loves sailing! The lighthouse is from the Wall Decor cartridge, cut at 3.5 inches. The phrase is from the same cartridge, cut at 2.0 inches. I used an embossing folder with my Cuttlebug called distressed stripes for the mat paper. I tore some gold paper, inked the edges and used for a beach effect on the card.
