hello, hello & hello . . .

This week's challenge at BBTB2 is "things that fly in nature".  I found a butterfly image on the Picturesque  cartridge and decided to make a shaped card.  For the card base I welded the two butterfly shapes together in Design Studio using the shadow feature. 



I used the base feature to cut the vellum and the base shift to cut the purple cardstock.I embossed the vellum to add a little bit more texture to the card.


I stamped the "hello, hello & hello" sentiment and hand cut it out leaving just a little bit of white around the stamping and used pop up dots to attach it to the card.  I stamped the butterfly on the inside of the card to finish it off - there was just to much white.


Thanks for stopping by.

Winter Woodland Skating Layout

The Bitten By the Bug 2 has a challenge going on that uses the Winter Woodland Cricut Cartridge.  Since I have that cartridge I thought I would do an 8x8 layout.  I have lots of fond memories of skating.  We didn't have rink, on the farm we used the overflow from the stock tanks or the stock tanks themselves. 


I stamped with clear embossing ink the polka dots and used clear embossing powder. I stamped the two smaller snowflakes from the Snow Swirled set on the pink cardstock then inked the edges of white cardstock.  The skates are cut out at 2" and layered.  I hand cut the bows off of them because I wanted to add my own.  I used some embroidery floss that is not separated for the laces and used glossy accents to glue them to the skate. 


I used the lined stamp from Notes and Details to make a journal spot and stamped with the small snowflake on the side.  Each page is similar in design I just changed the sizes a little bit. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Thank You

I did this for the Bitten by the Bug 2 Challenge - We were to use the Cricut Cartridge "From My Kitchen" and use the Ice Cream Tab on page 59 in the book.


I glued my envelope flap down and trimmed the top so it would be open to slide the card into the the envelope. I used the Cuttlebug Stylized Flowers and lightly inked them for the trim on the outside of the envelope.


Thank you is cut from New Arrivals and the Flowers and Leaves are from Accent Essentials.
