Winter Wonderland card made using the NEW Wrap It Up cartridge

Hello, friends!

Today I have another project I made using the NEW Wrap It Up cartridge. Instead of making a bag, I wanted to make a card to show you that this cartridge is not just for bags. This cartridge is tons and tons of fun and will be great for many uses including scrapbooking and cardmaking.

I cut the word art at 2 1/4".

I used DCWV glitter paper.

The patterned paper is from October Afternoon.

The ribbon is from Papertrey Ink.

Little birdhouse card made with the *new* Cindy Loo Cricut cartridge

Hello, friends!!

Today I have a card I made using one of my favorites of the release...Cindy Loo! I really love this cartridge! I think it has lots of possibilities. It is not as girly as you might think either. I have a card that I made for tomorrow's post on Everyday Cricut that is VERY masculine. It just is a total must have cartridge....I think!



When I saw the images on this card I knew that this little Bavarian birdhouse would be cut by my cricut. Just something about it called to me. I cut this little birdhouse at 2". It is small, but not hard to assemble. I love when that happens!



I used a little pen work to add a little bit more.



The paper used is October Afternoon's 'Thrift Store'. This is totally my new favorite paper pack! The ribbon is SU! and the stamp is from Papertrey Ink(the set is called Inside Out Thank you...or something like that)



Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Hello Thursday Day 4- card made with Toy Story cartridge

Hello, friends!

Today is day 4 of the Hello Thursday projects reveal! Today I am giving away the Preserves cartridge!! If you are a frequent follower of my blog you know that I love to use anything fruity, so this cartridge is near and dear to my heart! To win this cartridge all you have to do is leave a comment on this post and make sure you are signed up to get email or follow this blog.

On to the card....

Today's card is made using the Toy Story cartridge. As I have said many times, I am not much for actually cutting the Disney shapes. I do love the fact that there are usually lots of other shapes that can be used in a non-Disney way. This little lamb is a perfect example of this! I cut him at 2".

I used October Afternoon paper on this card(which I love) and a Papertrey Ink sentiment.

The background that the lamb is mounted on was cut using the Ashlyn's Alphabet cartridge and colored using my copic markers.

apple of my eye card using the new Preserves Cricut cartridge

Hello, everyone!

Today's card is made using the *new* Preserves cartridge from Provo Craft. I was flipping through my October Afternoon paper and noticed that the apple on the Farmer's Market line was very close to the apple on the cartridge. Thus a card was born.



The paper as I said is October Afternoon's Farmer's Market. The Apple was cut at 3". The ribbon and sentiment are SU!

Have a wonderful day!!

Wish Big birthday card

Hello, everyone!

Today is my first day back at college. I seriously loved my break so much I don't wanna go back. Oh well, the faster I go back the faster I will be done with school. There is always spring break, after all.

Today's card is another birthday card for a female family member that is not a girlie girl. I went ahead and snuck in a paper flower though. I just cannot help myself.

The stamp is from Papertrey Ink and the shape is a nestibility die. The paper is a combination of Jillibean Soup and October Afternoon.

I am doing a mini blog hop on this blog on thursday, so there will not be a post on here first thing is the morning. We will be previewing the brand new cartridge for Hello Thursday again, so I cannot post my creations until I get the green light from provocraft. Make sure you check in though because I will be giving away a cartridge again as well.

Have a great day!

Forever Young flower thank you card

Hello, everyone!

Believe it or not I was not a huge fan of the Forever Young cartridge when I first saw it. It reminded me of that CTMH stamp set that was so popular last year with the silhouetted women. I was never crazy about that stamp set, so it meant that the cartridge was not going to be one of my favorites either. However, it has some really cute flowers on it that I absolutely love!! This card was made with one of those adorable flowers.

the paper used is October Afternoon's 'Farm Fresh' line. The stamp set is from CTMH and the ribbon is Papertrey Ink. The frame for the sentiment is a sticker that came with the October Afternoon paper.

Have a wonderful day!!

Happy hump day!

Oh how I love thee, October Afternoon. Let me count the ways....

I ordered the Farm Fresh and Report card paper from October Afternoon and it came this weekend. I was so excited! I have had my eye on them for a while. I finally broke down and ordered them. How cute is that Sheep!?!

This is a card I made for one of our lucky winners over at Christmas with the Cricut. I hope they like the prize and the card!

The lettering is cut from Ashlynn's Alphabet and the sheep is a die cut from the paper pack.




Have a great day!

Happy Wednesday people!

Hello, everyone!

Hope you all are having a great week so far.

Here is another thank you card for one of our winners. It is a combination Cosmo Cricket/October Afternoon. The sentiment is Papertrey Ink.




Have a great rest of your day!

Happy Monday Y'all!
