Hooters! Breast Cancer card.


This card is for a friend who recently finished reconstructive surgery after breast cancer. The owl is from the Cricut, Happily Ever After cartridge. Isn't this the cutest owl ever?

Tag/pocket

This weeks challenge was to use the wreath on Joys of the Season Cricut cartridge. I put the wreath on a tag and made a tag pocket for the tag to slide into. The tag is from a Sizzix die. It has been awhile since I stitched on a card, so, I stiched the pocket together. I love this paper, it is double sided and so fun and cheery.

Feel better

This card took on a life of it's own. I had a completely different sketch in mind when I started working on it. The inside of the card is posted below. I always wondered what I would do with a green flower, but, it worked for this card.

I had to try out this new punch.

It took me a while to figure this punch out, but, once I did, I loved it. Next time I will space the flowers farther apart so that the strip will go from top to bottom of the card, but, I only only had a small scrap piece of this cardstock to work with. I would have had to cut one of the flowers in half to get it to work. Oh well, live and learn! I love how the flowers "pop" out when you open the card.

All roads lead to somewhere


I love this little VW stamp. (I had to add a Mickey antenna ball!). I think this little saying is so sweet.

edit feature?

I don't know if there is an edit feature when you blog! I do know how to spell Martha Stewart, even though it is spelled wrong on the post below!

Turtle birthday card

This weeks challenge was the card feature from the Walk in My Garden cartridge. It was going to be a "late" birthday card (hence the turtle), but I changed my mind. The balloons are Quickutz and the scalloped border is a new Martha Steward border punch.

Popcorn box

This popcorn box was the Cricut challenge for the week. It is from the Tags Bags and Boxes cartridge. I think I may tuck a gift card inside.

I'm finally back!

I finally sat down at my craft desk (after I cleared off a pile of rubble) and made something for the BBTB weekly challenge! It sure felt good to create again. I was beginning to think the surgeon removed my creativity while he was in there. Yikes! Every year Bill and I do the Revlon Run/Walk for womens cancer. (of course we walk...........no way do we run), It is held the day before Mothers day at the L.A. Colisseum. This shoe was made with the Cricut My Community cartridge. I used the new Cuttlebug swiss dot embossing folder for the sole of the shoe. This shoe is very sparkly in person!

Cricut lunchbag

I NEED a rubber stamp fix! I need a trip to the rubber stamp store soon! I can't wait to be able to drive again. Until then, I will just post this pic of a bag I made awhile ago with my Cricut. It is made with the Tags Bags and Boxes cartridge. I made a window in the bag and added a JoAnns gift card inside the see through pocket. I hope the surgeon didn't remove my creativity because I sure don't feel very creative right now. Maybe a trip to the stamp store will be the medicine I need !
