Hi all! I am excited to be sharing another project with you for CardzTV....there is a new challenge, which is a 3-D project for the Fourth Of July.... I decided to make a couple of PINWHEELS for a couple little girls I know.

I have used CardzTv stamp set:

PINWHEEL SENTIMENT TEMPLATE-CUTTING FILE.

The designer papers are from Bo Bunny-Anthem Collection.

New Challenge over at The Stamping Boutique...Red, white and Blue

I wanted to share with you that there is a new challenge over at 

THE STAMPING BOUTIQUE CHALLENGE BLOG....this week the challenge is RED, WHITE, AND BLUE. ( I know this white is a bit more off white...but hope it is close enough!)

For my card I used THE STAMPING BOUTIQUE image: STAR DIGITAL STAMP.

I paper pieced the image with designer papers from Bo Bunny Anthem Collection...I know you have seen a few cards/projects now with these papers....hope you don't mind! The awesome sentiment is from 

Craftin' Desert Diva's stamp set CELEBRATE FREEDOM.

I would love to enter this card into the CDD Linky Party-which happens to also be Red, White and Blue.

Home on over and join TSB's challenge!!

New Squigglefly challenge...

HI, there is a new challenge over at the SQUIGGLEFLY CHALLENGE BLOG this week....the challenge is a ONE LAYER CARD. I have used the image FIRECRACKERS by Sandra Caldwell. Isn't it just perfect for this time of the year!
The sentiment is from CDD-Celebrate Freedom stamp set. I inked it in black, red and blue-then went over it with a black marker pen to make the actual image stand out again.

                        Hope you get the chance to stop on over and check out all the DT projects! 
                                                          
OH, and I wanted to share with you that Squigglefly has three new artists, they are Tam Hess, Norma Burnell, and Angela Charles. Their images will be in the store on July 5th.

We are also welcoming a new design team member Jen Leeflang.  Jen's blog is http://jencraftsa.blogspot.com-stop on over and say HI!

Isn't she a cutie?!! The sentiment is from CDD stamp set- Sugar and Spice.

A CUTIE BUG card to share with you....

Hi all, I real quick wanted to share a card I made last night with you all. There is a new challenge over on the FRESH BREWED DESIGNS Challenge Blog and it is Red, White and Blue. Luckily I have printed my image out on white paper, as the designer papers from Bo Bunny's Anthem Collection have more of a cream color to them. I have used FBD digi image: CUTIE BUG with SPARKLER from the CUTIE BUGS SECTION.

I used the CRAFTIN DESERT DIVA's stamp set CELEBRATE FREEDOM which was absolutely perfect for this card, and little image!! I also used a couple of skittles from DoubleClick Connections on my card.

Thanks for stopping by!

CARDZTV CHALLENGE-Fathers Day

 For the new challenge on THE STAMPING BOUTIQUE go HERE.

Hello all!! Time for a new Challenge over at CARDZ TV!! This week, the 3-D Team has whipped up some fantastic Fathers Day inspiration for you, to get your MOJO going!! I decided to make a 3-D "Tool Box" for my daughter to give my hubby...

                                                              Here is the side view....
                                     (We will probably pack the drawers with a few candy bits...)

For my creation, I have used:

CARDZTV Stamp Set-YOU'RE THE MAN (Happy Fathers day-and Mr. Fix-It)

The Cutting Cafe's File: Dresser Box Template-Cutting File
I simply left off the top decoration, and added some crimping to some additional drawer covers, along with a strip on the bottom two drawers to make it look like the drawer pull.

Cricut Cartridges-Boys will be Boys (tools) and Elegant Edges(top sentiment box)

Hope you like it!! I hope you have some fun creating a 3-D project of your own, and make sure to enter it in the challenge at CARDZ TV!

Squigglefly Challenge #23....Christmas Cards

OK, so our new challenge over on the SQUIGGLEFLY CHALLENGE BLOG is CHRISTMAS CARDS....what a super great way to get a card made ahead...or two or three once you get going, you might not want to stop with the Christmas Cheer!!
For my card I have went with totally non traditional colors for Christmas.... I used SQUIGGLEFLY image: A JOYFUL CHRISTMAS TAGS And WINTER WONDERLAND PAPERS  - both by Inger Harding.

I have used some flowers I just purchased from Classy Cards and Such, some leaves made with a punch, some ribbon from my stash, as well as a stick on sentiment-a pearl embellishment, and a couple little sticker candy canes made into the shape of a heart.....oh, and a doily I received along with a stamp set that I won from Docerela.

Hope you get the chance to join us this week, remember , if you use a Squigglefly Digi image- you have the chance to win a free image, if your name is picked!!

CARD IN A BOX with THE CUTTING CAFE

Hi all-this week at THE CUTTING CAFE we are sharing the CARD IN A BOX SET and CARD IN A BOX EMBELLISHMENT SETS....I needed a graduation card, so it was perfect timing!

The graduates school colors were yellow and brown and they were the "Hornets". So, I got busy making my box yellow and brown, and added little hornets from the schools images.

The little yellow balloons are part of the CARD IN A BOX EMBELLISHMENTS SET.

The circles were made with my SU 1/2 circle punch and added randomly. The two hearts on the sides were my SU heart punch, which I just added brown strips to.

I used a CARDZTV sentiment from the "It's All About You" stamp set.

Make sure to check out all the DT Inspiration on the 7th over at THE CUTTING CAFE BLOG.

Have a great weekend! (ITS ALMOST HERE!)
