Teachers Gift

This is a gift that my sister in law, and my niece made for a teacher.  It is soooo cute.  I think she used Locker Talk for this.  This is not a cartridge that I own, but as usual after I see something with a cartridge, I want that cartridge.

Bee Happy

I cased this card from the cricut message board, I thought it was so cute.  I designed the card in DS using Base Camp and Create a Critter.  I have saved the cut file if anyone is interested.  I used stampin up's Chocolate Chip as the base for the card and Creamy Caramel for the layers.  I used black for the bee, again with the layers in creamy caramel, the flowers were cut in Cameo Coral, and the leaves in an unknown paper (it was a scrap).  I added a diamond stone to the centre of the flowers, I stickled the wings of the bee and the heart at the top of the bee hive.  The inside is an unknown patterned paper, again a scrap I had on hand.

PINK STAMPER CHALLENGE FOR AN EXPRESSION MACHINE

This is the card I made for the Pink Stamper Challenge, she is giving away an Expression machine.
Theme had to be Fathers Day.

Anniversary card

My husband is gone golfing this morning.  I thought I take my quiet time and make a few cards that I need for this month.  The first is an Anniversary card for my brother and his wife.  Its a simple card but I like the way it turned out.  The base of the card is stampinup blush blossom card stock, the pattern paper is from a pack I got at Costco, I used my Cricut Sweethearts cartridge, the couple was cut at 2.5 and the saying was cut at 1.5.  Paper for the cuts were scraps I had on hand.

Male Birthday

Hi Everyone,
May is just around the corner, I have a lot of birthdays to make cards for.  First up is my youngest son Chris, he is turning 19.  What a milestone, he is legal to drink in Ontario, I remember feeling so grown up when I turned legal age.

Anyway here is his card.  I used stampin up paper and punch.  The golfer is from Close to My Heart, I used copics to colour the image, there was no stamp for the hills and bunker, so I just drew it myself (I am not the worlds best drawer.  The ribbon was a scrap piece I had laying around.

My Pink Stamper Challenge

My Pink Stamper had challenge to make a card using the cricut, and the colours Green, Pink and Black.

This is what I came up with.  The pig and the ovals were cut from "From My Kitchen".  The Hogs and Kisses, are on the Just Because Cards Cartridge (I don't own this cart, but was able to cut image with the help of microsoft paint, inkscape and SCAL.  (Let me know if you want to know how its done).

Paper pink and green are from stampin up, the pattern paper is from Forever in Time (dollar store), and the green glitter paper is from Paper Reflections (the multicut feature was needed for this paper).

Hope you enjoy!!!!!

Cooper

After many years of wanting a dog the boys finally have their wish.  Tonight after working at the homeshow, we all hopped in the car and went to see this 16 month old Newfoundlander.  He is gorgeous, a little over weight but I'm sure with all the walks he'll get from the boys he will be in great shape soon. 
Cooper was staying in a small condo, sharing it with a lot of people and another dog, and cats.  We are so excited to have him here.  Cooper was great his first night here, he slept with birthday boy Jonathan.  Dad thought he'd wake up in the morning and regret this, but he was thrilled to see Cooper.  Nan would have loved this dog, so much like our St. Bernard Joe, but I'm sure he would have knocked her flat on her behind.
