Father's Day Challenge and Cricut Expressions Giveaway!!



Hi everyone,

I hope everyone is enjoying their holiday weekend?? I have been really busy this week finishing some scrapbooks I was making for a friend and a family member. I think they turned out alright.

Now to the MPS Father's Day Challenge. "Arrested" I just purchased the Everyday Paper Dolls Cart today from Biglot for $25.00, for those of you who have a Biglot, go check them out on tomorrow, it's the last day!

I think this is a perfect Card for Father's Day, they need a little R & R sometime.
I cut the little lady at 3 3/4 inches, the cloud at 1 3/4 along with the grass. The car was cut at 2 3/4 and the road at 2 1/4 inches. All of these cuts came from the Everyday Paper Dolls.

The lettering came from the Don Juan Cart, "arrested" is cut at 3/4, "lack of and R & R" are cut at an inch.

I also used the Forever Young cart for her earrings, I am sorry I don't remember what I cut them at. Most of the card stock I used came from scraps. Although the car and shoes are made with the DCWV flower shower spring pack (glitter). I am trying to get a little better at using recipes, please forgive if it seems jumbled a bit.

I hope you enjoy the card, have a blessed day!

Graduation Card 2





Hi everyone,

I thought since it took me a long time to post in between post I would do a little catching up. I am posting another graduation card, I have a party to attend on Saturday and this is the Card I made for the young lady at our church. As I've said before, I really like pedestal cards... I hope you enjoy the post.

I used the Wild card, Hello Kitty, Stamping and Don Juan Carts to create this card.

Have a blessed day!

Paper Cutz Challenge



Hi everyone,

Just want to give a welcome to my new followers and say thanks for following my blog.

I hadn't posted anything in a while, been busy working on a couple of projects for some friends.

I thought I should try a challenge, with Paper Cutz Challenge and I am gonna use this card for my husband. Sorry about all the pedestal cards but I love that style of card. I used the Create a Critter Cart, I chose the squirrel thought he was so cute. I cut him at 3 3/4, I used DCWV flower shower spring pack. I believe I cut the nuts at 1 3/4...and of course I couldn't forget the black ribbon, which was part of challenge...

I hope you enjoy the card!!

Have a blessed day!

It's the Turtle In Me!




Hi everyone, thanks for following my blog, I really appreciate it and please do me a favor and tell some of your friends.

I haven't posted anything in a few days and thought I would post this card my best friend asked me to make for her mother...her mom really like turtles so I used my new Create a Critter and Don Juan carts, I thought the card turned out really cute. The saying that I have on it is; Sorry "I'm Late, It's the turtle in me, Happy Mothers' Day!" My husband helped me with the quote, thought it fit the card...turtles move very slow...too cute. I hope you enjoy the Card!!
