Terrific Tuesday Challenge "Create-a-Critter"

This is becoming to be one of my favorite cartridge. I really like all the cute little critters that are on the cartridge. I did something different with this one and made a key chain. I learned it from another blog and when I remember I will post it, I want to give the right credit to the right person. I cut the kitten out about five times and glue all the pieces together  with my 2 way zig glue stick. I punched the holes in as I went through each layers. After it dried from the glue, I used some mod podge to give it a stiff feel and make it feel like leather.

CTO "anything goes birthday"

I really like http://www.celebratetheoccasion.blogspot.com/ .  This is a fun blog, it helps me be creative. I decided to do another card that would work for a man. I used another new cartridge of my wrap it up,  which has several many images for different reasons. I used the tie to make a card for a man. My pastor birthday is in march and he loves his ties, so this would be a nice card for him.

Wacky Wednesday "farm themed"

I have to think about this one. Once I gave it some thought I came up with my favorite thing about the farm and that is the corn. I love sweet corn on the cob it is my favorite summer time treat. My sentiment is from "sweet something"  stampset from http://www.scrappymoms-stamps.blogspot.com/. The cute little face is from http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/  PK-490 Everyday Character Face Assortment.

I'm really loving the challenges over at http://twoscraptasticgals.blogspot.com/ which is held over at different blogs. This time it was to use the paisley cartridge.I had it for a while but was not sure what to do with it. I wanted to do something cute so something I let the stamps I have deceide what image I will use. I went with the sentiment from "sweet something" from the http://www.scrappymoms-stamps.blogspot.com/  thats how I came up with the idea of what image to use.

Challenge #48 Emboss It!

This week over at http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com the challenge was to use some form of embossing on to your project. I did a card using my cuttlebug. I really love this little tough green machine. To get a card in the store emboss would cost you, but I love to give card with this technique on it because people really appreciate all the hard work you put into the cards you make for them. I like to make my family and friends feel special.

I'm really glad that I found this blog http://www.celebratetheoccasion.blogspot.com/. It is such a great blog to help me with cards to get ready through out the year. This time it was to make a masculine card and what a challenge it was for me especially not to use ribbon, which I love to use so much. all the cuts on the card are from "just because card' cartridge. I did some embossing and some chalking to give it a really manly look to it. Not sure who will get the card.

Flaunt It Friday Challenge

This week challenge was truly that. I wanted to do something different for the challenge. The goal was to use the lips from the India Art cartridge and do something using that image. Me being such a Provo Craft fan  I pulled out my Yudu and got started. It can be time consuming but fun once you get going with it. The project below is my result of some hard work.

I think if I get really good at this I will make shirts worth selling.
