3 Challenge Cards



Hi Everyone! This has been a challenging week! LOL Not because of anything stressful, but because I am joining 3 challenges!!! Hee Hee! Here's a look at the 3 that I am entering: The first one is from the Silhouette. The base is design ID#8697 and the cupcake is from ID#27892. The sentiment is from
CardzTV Stamps called Heartfelt Wishes

This next one is from Teddy Bear Parade using my Cricut and CardzTV Stamps called Beary Sweet. I added some fun ribbon that looks like a skirt around the bear and the crocheted flower is from my sweet friend Karen who is on my design team. This will be entered in the Bitten By The Bug 2 Challenge which was to make something that you would give to brighten up someone's day.

 
For the last one I made this latte card using my Silhouette. It's ID#37942 and the challenge is so make something that you crave. :0)
Here's a video description of the cards:

Rocking Turtle Card

Hi Everyone! Here's a cute card that I made using my Silhouette. I also show you how you can make this with the Birthday Bash Cricut Cartridge. The design #'s for the turtle is 37951 and the rocking card is 42688. The birthday bash sizes are 6.6 for the large scallop circles, 3.8 for the smaller scallop circle and the regular circle is 2.75 inches. I lent my book out so I am unable to give the page number, but if you go into the card feature and find the scalloped card you will find this. :0)

 
Here's the video showing how to make this card:

You've Got Mail Blog Hop!! :0)

Hi Everyone! Welcome to day 2 of the You've Got Mail Blog Hop!! We are so excited to share with you our fun designs and ideas!!!
For my project, I used the Silhouette. For the base of the cards I used design ID# 26375(I stretched it out to 3x3) and for the shoes I used ID#13417( I can't remember the size, but I shrank it down until it fit the 3x3 card. I believe it was 2.5 inches). The box was also from the Silhouette which was design ID#29948. I stretched it out so that it was 3.5 inches so that it would hold my 3x3 cards.

Hi Everyone! Here's a couple of cards that I made using my Silhouette. I used the design number 42702 on the Silhouette website. In my video I show you how to create a similar card using your Gypsy or Cricut Craft Room.

Circus Tent Card and "Madagascar" like Zebra!

Hi Everyone! When I saw the adorable little zebra that was on the Silhouette website I knew I have to have it and pair it with the circus tent! I think that my nephew is going to just love it. If you would like to find them on the Silhouette you can type circus tent card and then chubby zebra to find the zebra. If you have a cricut, you can use the Create A Critter cartridge and it has a circus tent and lots of fun animals to choose from. :)

Flower Pot Mother's Day Card

Hi Everyone! Here's a card that I made using my Silhouette. When you pull out the card it says Happy Mother's Day. I am sending this to my sweet friend Sarah, liveloveandscrap. I remembered that I had little ladybug brads and used one on the card. I love how it turned out. I am going to enter this into the Peachy Keen Challenge to make a Mother's Day card.
Here's a video on how to make this card:

Creative Time For Me 3x3 Challenge

Hi Everyone! Emma from Creative Time For Me is having a 3x3 challenge so I decided to join in. My cards ended up being 3.5x 3.5 so I am sure that they will still count. :0) I used the Create a Critter Cartridge and cut the hippos out at 2.5 inches. I hid the eyes on my Gypsy so that I could add the googly eyes, but you can just stick the eyes over the small holes if you do not want to hid them. I also cut the grass at 1 inch. The cute sentiments are from Snail Mail and Good Times stamp set from CardzTV.



Thanks so much for watching! :0)
