Halloween Pumpkin Men Card

Hi everyone! 
I am a big fan of My Pink Stamper so I try to do all the challenges that I can.  Here's the one I came up with for today's challenge to make something  Halloween or Fall themed.

Recipe:
Gypsy for flipping image and arranging on mat
Stretch Your Imagination Cart: 2 Pumpkin Men cut at 3.75 Inches and their layers.
Stickles in Diamond
Studio G Clear Stamps
Zig 2 Way glue pen and Monoadhesive
Black Satin Ribbon from Walmart
Brown card stock from Best Occasions card stock stack
All other paper was out of my scrap bin so I don't know who its from. Sorry :-(

I hope you all like it and thank you for visiting my blog!  Oh, and don't forget to check out My Pink Stamper's blog to enter into her challenge!

Thanksgiving Card for Soldiers

Hi Everyone!
I hope your week is going well so far. Mine has been very busy!  I signed up on the cricut message board to make cards for soldiers for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.

The Olive color ribbon was from Walmart and I used the My Pink Stamper cheater method to save ribbon and I tied a very simple bow on it.  I cut the leaf out of brown card stock at 4 inches from the Stretch Your Imagination cartridge and glued it on with Zig Two Way glue pen.  Than I welded the "GIVE" and the "THANKS" using the gypsy and cut out the "GIVE" at 1 inch out of burnt orange paper and "THANKS" at 3/4 inch out of light brown paper. I sent the "GIVE" and the "THANKS" through the Xyron and stuck them on the background paper which I found in a local scrapbook store.

I hope you all have a great rest of the week and thank you for stopping by my blog!

Card Box

Hi everyone!  I know its been a while since I've posted anything, but it has been really busy around here!  Such is life, right?!?!  

Well, I have been working hard all week on this project. I took paper from the DCWV Blossoms and Butterflies Stack!  I love this stack.  I love all of the colors and the glitter! I covered a regular shoe box with the paper using red tape adhesive.  I used purple ribbon from Walmart for around the box and pink satin ribbon from Walmart for on top.  I used prima flowers and the brads were by Petaloo and Little Yellow Bicycle and they were popped up using pop dots. The decor tag was cut from the Gypsy Wanderings Cartridge cut at 4.5 inches from white shimmer paper and the shadow cut from Blue paper from the Blossoms and Butterflies stack at 5.5 inches. I then used the cricut markers in pink and drew with the cricut the word Cards on it from the Gypsy font cartridge.  I used pop dots on both the shadow and the the top layer to give it more dimension!  I then used stickers from K & Company called Berry Sweet for the sides of the box.   I love it and I can't wait to put all the cards I make into it!  Thank you for taking the time out to visit my blog!!

Pink ATG

Hi Everyone!
I hope everyone has had a great week so far.  I am soooooo excited!  My DH ordered me a Pink ATG.  He found it at an online store called grumpycat creations.  It was $24.25, which is pretty cheap, for the pink glider and 2 rolls of 0.25" tape.  They are based here in CA so it will get here fast and they have TONS of other really cute papers and other scrapbooking needs!  Click here if you would like to see what else they have!  I can't wait to use it!  I am working on finishing up my daughters scrapbook and will post a few pictures soon.  Thank you for visiting my blog and I hope you have a great rest of the week and weekend!

1st Birthday 2 Page Layout

Hello again!
Like I said, I have been very busy.  This was a very simple and easy 2 page scrapbook layout.  It took me 5 minutes!  Can you believe that?  I can't and that's why I love it!  So easy yet soooo cute.  We had some professional pictures done for her 1st Birthday even though she's 3 now.  Yes, I'm really trying to catch up and I'm almost done.

The adorable paper is from a scrapbook store where I live but made by Creative Imaginations called Clouds & Banners.  The Banner states,"happy birthday to you".  I backed the pictures in pink paper and chalked up the edges with Color Box ink in Dark Brown to make the pictures stand out.  Then the stickers are from sticker packs from EK Success.  Thanks again for coming to my blog!

Sweet Baby Scapbook Page

Hi Everyone!
For the Sweet Baby title I used the Gypsy Wandering Cartridge and was cut at 4inches on pink paper.  I then used Coffee Ice Stickles to Bling up the title. I used background paper from a paper pack from Walmart. I then backed the pictures in a coordinating paper.  The hand and foot print stickers are EK Success.  The "Special Delivery", "Feed Me I'm Hungry" bottle, and carriage stickers are from Karen Foster Design.  Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog!
