Have A Frog-Tastic Birthday


I wanted to start off by saying thank you to all of my new friends. What a fantastic idea Momo had. And I was so excited to find all those awesome blogs that I never knew where out there.
And I only need to have 8 more followers to do some blog candy:)

Now for my card. I think for the first time ever using my stickles ruined the card but I decided not to trash it because it was a fun card to make.



I used my Paisley Cricut Cartridge for this project.
First I cut the cupcake at 3 inches.
Then on the same cartridge I cut the frog 3 inches too.
I cut off the pieces of the frog I wanted to use.
And then I assembled the cupcake sliding the pieces of the frog between the layers of it.
Added googly eyes. And a strip off glittered paper for the tongue.
The paper is from the DCWV Dots Stipes and Plaids pack.
The sentiment I typed on my computer.


I also wanted to say thanks to those who left me an award over the last couple of days.
I will be by tomorrow to pick them up and send them out to others.

I want to remind everyone of the different giveaways I am doing over at the message board.

Scrappy Moms Terrific Tuesday Challenge

Well today I am getting brave and entering a card I made into a challenge. I have yet to do this. So I am so excited that I am giving it a try. Nervous but excited.





The challenge is to use the Smiley Cards Cricut Cartridge on a project. I used the cute fish on the cart. And the smooches sentiment is from the Scrappy Moms Amusing Animal Set. I love it. It has so many fun sentiments on it.
Check out the Scrappy Moms Challenge Here.

Okay now for the basket:)
I took different views so you all can see it well.















The basket image on the cart.
For this basket I didnt use a certain size.
I tried and was kept being told it was too big.
So I just used the fit to page option and chose cut.


The cute border on bottom I cut at 2 1/4.


I put stickles on the boarder and a cute flower and brad on top.


The ribbon I wove through it is the Stampin Up Old Olive.

Hoppy Easter Card

Good Morning everyone? What do you all have planned for the weekend? I am gonna be out trying to get all of my errands done this morning and then DH and I have date night with out the boys tonight:)
I am so happy with how warm it is starting to get here in CNY. I am loving that all the snow is finally starting to melt. I was getting so tired of all the gloomy weather.
I also wanted to tell everyone that I bought the Crafter's Companion Rock A Block set and I am loving it. My stamped images have never come out clearer. I do need to go out and buy a smaller stamp pad though so that I dont accidentally ink the edges of the blocks. The rocker part.
I also wanted to invite you all to come chat with us over at my message board. Chatter Scene we have a fun paper crafting area where I do give aways once in a while:) The ladies there are very nice and very creative. The more peeps there sharing ideas the better:) We also have other areas of the board for those non crafters as well. Lots of mommy areas. And very little drama. Which is nice on a message board.
Okay now to my card. I whipped up this hoppy easter card using the Animal Kingdom Cricut cartridge and the DoodleCharms Cricut Cartridge.
I cut the bunny rabbit at 3 inches.
The basket was about 1 inch.
I colored in the eggs with copic markers and then added some fun glitter flock to them.
The hoppy easter sentiment was computer generated. I didnt realize I didnt have a good easter stamp. So I printed it and punched it out with a stampin up punch.
The ribbon was just a ribbon I picked up at the local craft store.
I used Peachy Keen animal faces to stamp the face on the rabbit.
I also used chalk to give him a bit of color.
And of course as always I added stickles:)

Took two pics because I am practicing different settings on my camera to get more clear pics.

Cow Layout

Happy Monday everyone:) What is on the agenda for the week?

I have a ton to do. I want to get my spring cleaning done. More layouts and cards done. I also have some cuts to make.

I did this layout using the Animal Kingdom Cricut Cartridge cow. The cow is cut at 3 inches. I used peachy keen animal faces stamp for his face. I also used the Walk In My Garden cricut cart bee. The bee is cut at 1 inch.

I also used the cricut imagine to do the background paper with the clouds. I did this using the cricut imagine Hopscotch pattern cartridge. The sun is from Accent Essentials Cricut Cartridge. The sun is cut at 2 inches.

I again used the Martha Stewart Fringe Scissors on the grass.

Of course I added lots of stickles glitter.
