Cricut 360 Challenge #2

Good Morning Crafty Friends of Mine!

I think I've finally got my crafting mojo back and I've been on a roll! It feels good to be out of that rut, because it was taking a toll on my happiness. Nonetheless, I wanted to share a card that I made to enter the Cricut 360 Challenge this week.  I missed thier first challenge, but I didn't want to miss out on this 2nd challenge. The challenge this week was to make a Thank You card but it had to be a circle. Well here is what I came up with. Let me know what you think!

Base of the card and the scallop were both cut from Birthday Bash

Sentiment is from The Pink Stamper's Everyday Life Set.

Butterfly is a wood block stamp that I picked up from Michael's many moons ago

I think it's a little more simple than I'm use to making but I had to make sure it had some bling,  I am very happy with how it turned out.
Well that's all I have for now. Check back later today to see what I made for the Simply Sunday Challenge over at Getting Cricky with K. Andrews!

Until Next Time...

Nana's Birthday

I just wanted to share a card that I created for my great-grandmother's birthday which was earlier this month. I am behind on making some other cards, but this was one that I had to make because it was for my Nana who is very near and dear to my heart. She is the one who I get my cookng inspiration from and she is one of many who helped to instill in me how important it is to go to school. I am forever grateful for all the wisdom that my Nana has and continues to share with not only me but our entire family. We'd be lost without her!

I just LOVE the colors that I used

I used my i-rock to bling up the cake

Thanks for stopping by! I hope that you enjoyed your visit and that you will come back again soon!

Until next time...

So Many Wishes

Well hello there everyone!!! Seems like forever since I've had the chance to share with you! Things have been really busy for me the past couple of weeks but I finally had an opportunity to sit down and make some things this week.

But before I share my creations with you, I just wanted to share that Vicky over at Victoria Scraps has some awesome blog candy since she has reached 100 followers! I can't wait until the day I can say that I have reached that milestone! Be sure to check out her blog and become a follower! She is a very talented lady and I love to see all of her creations, I know you will too!

Now on to my newest creations!

This first card was made for my grandfather who celebrated his birthday yesterday! I love my Pop-Pop and I'm so happy that I was able to make a card for him (although it will get to him a little late). I just love the way this turned out!

Truck is from Everyday Paper Dolls

Cake is from Simply Charmed

Stamps used: PKS Everyday Characters & MPS Everyday Life

Yellow Stickles

This next card was made for one of my former students who has been feeling a bit under the weather lately, and I thought I would make this for her to cheer her up and lift up her spirits. She is such a sweet young lady and I was so blessed to have been able to share her 1st grade year with not only her, but all of my students. I can't wait to see what she thought of her special card! I just love this cute little sun!

Sun is from Create a Critter

Punch used is by EK Success

Sentiment is from MPS Everyday Life

Flower paper is from DCWV  Glitter Mat Stack

My last item, was actually supposed to be a card for someone, but I was not happy with the way it turned out, so I just made it into something that I may attach to a gift or something in the future. I don't now yet.

Present is from Simply Charmed

Martha Stewart Glitter

Brad is from Recollections

Well that's all I have to share for today! I have lots of valentine's stuff to make this weekend, since of course I waited until the last minute, but that's me! I also have some new cartridges that have just arrived that I can't wait to play with (Storybook, Forever Young, Nifty Fifties, and Mother's Day Bouquet)!!

Have a wonderful rest of the week and be sure to smile! You never know whose day you may brighten just from a simple gesture of a smile!

xx Hugs  xx

Enjoyment!

What a long week it has been and I only had to work 4 days! LOL!!! Nonetheless last weekend I made this super cute card for one of the awesome teachers on my team, whose birthday was yesterday! I was very, very pleased with the way that it turned out! I'm getting better and better each day with creating beautiful cards! Here's a look at my newest creation!

Isn't it just too cute!

The martini glass is from the From My Kitchen cartridge. I used my new Martha Stewart Ribbon Loop punch for the border.

Face is from Peachy Keen Stamps - Everyday Character Assortment. I added a jeweled brad to the olive for some extra bling!
