SHOE-TASTIC!!

I know, I know....that isn't a real word!
 But I like it, and it is what I think about this file-SHOE-TASTIC!!--how fun is this card?!!! This week over at THE CUTTING CAFE we were asked to use either the VINTAGE BOOT or the HIGH HEEL SHOE SHAPED CARD. Obviously I picked the High Heel shoe shaped card!!
 You can have so much fun designing shoe cards, one in every color, with this file!!

I love all the bows that are added on the file-and there are sentiments as well!!

Don't forget to check out all the inspiration and to check out the Vintage Boot, as well over on THE CUTTING CAFE BLOG on Wednesday, for the chance to win a couple files of your own!!
Have a great day-

Cute little Thank You, and a cricut cart for sale--or trade...

Here is a cute little card I put together for my Dad-he has gave us some extra goodies from his garden--so thought a cute little lettuce and carrot thank you would be fun.
I found the carrot on my MTC and used the leaf part for the lettuce as well. I doodled and added Peachy Keen faces for fun. I added a hand written sentiment, some rhinestones, and waallaaa-a Cute little garden Thank You!


Here is another little card I got made for my Mom to give one of her friends for her birthday.



I also wanted to mention that  I purchased a NIP MINI MONSTERS Cricut Cartridge off of a site last week, and then realized I ALREADY have it--(we were going to used it for Parkers B-day invites)---anyways, if anyone is interested in it- I paid $25+3. for shipping.....-or in trading, I am looking for the following carts: NEW or Used (Not linked): Teddy Bear Parade, 3 birds on Parade, Chalkboard Font, Ashlyn's Alphabet, Paper Pups, New Testament or Freshly Picked.

Thanks for stopping! I love to read your comments-good or bad!

My FIRST CHRISTMAS CARD for 2013...with THE CUTTING CAFE

HI all! WOW-it has been busy this last week! July has came and went way too fast! I can't believe summer is almost gone already.
This week Regina from THE CUTTING CAFE asked for us to do CHRISTMAS IN JULY and had us pick from a couple different Christmas files-I picked:
 There are so many choices on this file (12 different Christmas cards, and 17 sentiments!!). SOO fun!! (And it really is time to get started on my Christmas cards).


I hope you will get time to check out THE CUTTING CAFE BLOG for all the inspiration there, with all three Christmas files!

Oh, and just a note for you, if you have a kindle...Regina's daughter-Ebony Easter-has a book available on Amazon called THE CALLOUS CATCHER...I purchased it, and didn't want to put it down! It was an excellent read, and I can 't wait for her to come out with more!
Have a great week!

Docerela Challenge Card

Hi! There is a new challenge up over at Docerela's (Challenge #42). The challenge is to use two colors.
I needed to make a Happy 50th Anniversary card, so I picked cream and gold for my card.

Recipe:
I used ds papers (and the 5&0 stickers) from the Moonrise assortment pack by S.E.I-it was perfect for this card!
Pearls are from Studio 112
I inked the edges & the sentiment from SU (Teeny Tiny Wishes) with Pigment Ink from Stampabilities
I also stamped the flourish in the two corners with a stamp from another SU set (Priceless).

Have you seen the new stamp set and the Nail Colors that were July's release over at Docerela's? Love them--so girly and fun!!

Well, better get going-so much to do, this summer is just whizzing by so fast!!
Rhonda
