Today is Your Day!

I hope that everyone is having a great week! This has been a pretty lazy week for me and I was quite okay with it because it was SOOO HOT this week over here on the East Coast! It is supposed to cool down a little bit next week, which will be very much needed.

I wanted to quickly share a card I made yesterday morning. I woke up and headed straight to my office/craft space because I had an amazingly strong urge to create something. I went in with one idea and by the time this card was done, it was nothing like what I had planned on doing, but definitely much better!! The best part is that it was made completely from paper that was in my scraps bag!!!  I am entering this card in two challenges:

Getting Cricky with K. Andrew- Food For Thought

Fantabulous Cricut- # 69- I Scream for Ice Cream

I LOVE how the colors and cheerfulness of this card came together!

My sundae was cut from the Birthday Bash cartridge and the face was stamped with the Peachy Keen- Happy Lashes Set. I used some stickles on the cherry and sprinkles for some added bling! I also added some glossy accents to the spoon handle for fun! :)

Both of these sentiments are from K.Andrew's Designs- Positive Thoughts stamp set. I love this set!!!

Well that is my card for today! I hope that you have enjoyed it! I have a few more things I would like to make this weekend before I start working on things for my classroom!!! Thanks for stopping by and letting me know what you think of my card!

Until Next Time...

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter Everyone!

If you are here for the Keeping the Peace Blog Hop go HERE!

I wanted to get this post out earlier today but I was spending time with my family and I had such a great time!

I just wanted to share two projects that I made to give to my family members today. I am entering them in Challenge #56 at Fantabulous Cricut- Creat a project using a bunny or chick.

The first are small Easter pails that I made for my youngest sister and younger cousins. I love how cute and personal they each are! :)

Adorable chicks are cute from the Create a Critter Cartridge. Stamps are from the dollar bin at Michaels and JoAnns

Faces were stamped wtih Peachy Keen Stamps Happy Lashes 

I used my Gypsy to weld the letters for each of the girls names

All of the goodies that were inside!

This second project was just a cute little touch that I added to the bags for some cookies that I baked up this morning. The cookies have white and milk chocolate chips and they were oh so YUMMY! :)

Rabbit was cut from the Doodlecharms cartridge

Face was stamped with Peachy Keen Stamps Wide Eyed and Bushy Tailed

Just another view!

That's all I have for today! I will be choosing the winner of my blog candy for the Keeping the Peace Hop sometime tomorrow. I will also be posting some blog candy since I have almost reached 200 followers!!! :)

Have a terrifiec rest of your evening! See you all here again real soon!

Until next time...

Birthdays and Anniversaries

Hello Again My Amazingly Crafty Friends!!!

I was finally able to have the opportunity to create something and let me just say it was time well deserved and spent! :)

Yesterday marked 6 years since my mister and I started dating and it was also one of my best friends 25th birthday, so I definitely had a reason to make a card or 2!!!

This first card was my creation for my mister! I really loved this rose paper that I had left over from a K & Company stack that I bought around Valentine's Day. I think it added the perfect love touch to the card.

I think that this turned out simply PERFECT!

This was stamped with a stamp that I picked up from Michaels

This was one of Emma's bonus stamps that were sent out with her latest release

This next card was created especially for my best friend! As always I was very happy with how it turned out.

Isn't this cupcake just sooo cute!!! I finally had the chance to use my new PKS Happy Lashes set and Straight from the Nest cartridge for the cupcake

This is one of Robyn's latest stamps

This was the outside of her envelope

Another one of Emma's bonus stamps

Well that is all I have for today. I have 2 more cards that I will be making tomorrow night and then hopefully I will be able to start working on a special gift for my nephew who will be joining us in the world very soon!

Oh before I forget, I have surpassed the 100 followers mark so I will be having a giveaway in the coming days. Stay tuned to see what I may be giving away!

Have a wonderful week!
