Pizza Night


Hello crafters, another weekend is gone and I didn't get one crafty thing done. We got to enjoy the grand kids his weekend. We went over to my son/daughter in law Friday night and she had the kids to make there own pizza and I couldn't pass up a moment to scrap it. 

I tried to use my print and cut on the explore on the image of the little boy stirring the bowl but for some reason it printed black and white but I didn't toss it. I know my printer was on color just haven't had the time to go back and try again. I cut the pizza from the create a critter 2 cartridge. I used the DCWV stack Serenity paper for the base. I also cut the title with the Explore but I don't remember which cart it came from.  



Well I am off to my hair appointment have a bless day

Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge 2nd cut

Can I just say I am loving this cart. I am a simple scrapper and this just makes it is. Find some two sided paper CTMH baby cakes and some stamps and call it a day.



 I didn't line up the inside stamp so I had to stamp on a cut out for the inside sentiment but I can call it a done card all while on a quick break. Well back to work I go enjoy your afternoon

Cricut Artfully Sent first cut


Hello crafters, yesterday was one of those days that really took a toll on me. So when I got home I had a package from CTMH with my new goodies. I was so stressed last night I wanted to the last minute to open the box and decided I at least wanted to cut out something. I couldn't get the Cricut Design to open since they were making updates so I went to the Expression and low and behold I need a new blade so don't look to hard at the cuts. I thought this pop up card was really pretty


I do have a complaint on the book. I thought the images were so small I couldn't tell what half of them were in the book so I had to pull out the magnify glass


 bad cuts


 very bad cuts but I no the Explore will cut way better



I do love how easy the card was




As always be bless

SOC Friday Night Chat


Hey Crafters, tonight over at Scraps of Color we celebrated the Diva Viv retirement of the Air Force of 26 yrs. You have to take your hat off to someone who can give our country that much dedication. 

We had 3 challenges and the first one was 

  • Challenge #1 Make a card for Any Hero. No seasonal, no glitter but stickles ok, standard size or 5 x 6.5. Address to Dear Hero or Hello. No envelopes needed. Write a personal note. Going to Operation Write Home, 35205 13th Pl SW, Federal Way, WA 98023
I haven't used stickles in forever so as you can see I messed it up but oh well.




Challenge #2 Use sketch to make a card using brown and pink. Include a sentiment with Hello, hi, how are you etc. 

I don't have the picture of the sketch 





Challenge # 3 Create a card any size about friendship. You must have bling, bling, use a border punch and you must have flowers

I used my sizzix die on this one and I dug out my stamps and I can't believe all the ones I have just amazed another reason I love FNC I get to pull out things I hadn't thought of in awhile



Job well done Viv, enjoy your retirement

Happy Birthday Carol

I made this simple card today and dropped it in the mail for my sister in law Carol and she should get it by Friday. I used my Sizzix Framelit Poincons to make the card and the Ki Berry Blast 6x6 paper pad. I really love the papers in this card. The stamp is from Stamps of Life late4bday stamp set.


I just had to add some bling to it.

Happy Birthday Kai




Today is my little grandson Kai birthday. Little man turned 1 today. I took this photo of him last Friday at my son's football game and Kai was having a good time smiling for the camera with his mom.


 
I saw a shirt on Pinterest that was embroidery but I didn't feel like fooling with my machine and pulled out the vinyl and the Explore machine and came up with this cute little shirt for Kai
 
 



 
My sister put up a picture on FB of Kai and a Monchichi and he does favor one but I think he looks like Grandpa on the Monsters lol. I pulled out the Cameo thinking I could do a print and cut but NO my machine doesn't play right so I just printed and then I thought I could use my pens to write with well when you don't use something you forget how to use it and I was so tired last night that I wasn't going to do another card. You can see where the pen dragged then I tried to color it in with a wink of steller pen.
 
Now the inside came out good but oh well this is my project for the day
 
 
 
 
As always be bless

Hello crafters, today I am being featured over at Scraps Of Color as this month featured blogger. So come on over and check out the blog


Today I want to share some of the projects I completed for my friends sister wedding. I so loved doing these for her and she has may favorite color purple. This first one is the broom, I hate I couldn't make the wedding but my friend did share with me the pictures and they  were beautiful  


my friend and I got the flowers and bling at Hobby Lobby and she ordered the broom online

 


The card I made for is my favorite it is a spinner card that I downloaded from Kens Kreation I can't wait to make another one 




I just have to make some personalized towels but for some reason my machine kept locking up so I guess it needs to be taking in the shop :(


Then I made a gate fold album and I used several paper packs

I love love love the chunky charm


look at that ring love it








look at this last page of the book just too cute

I included some embellishments for her because for me a mini album just isn't finished without the pictures and stickers.


My friend told me that her sister cried and that makes me so happy. I love making things for family and friends.

My Super Hero - Happy Birthday




Today is my wonderful hubby birthday and if you know he you know he thinks he is the real superman so I thought this card would be fitting for him. I used Sweet Sunday sketch for this card.
I remember why I never liked this cartridge. I hate to fight with all those pieces and I am sure some didn't make it on the image. I used S&P stamps





sorry I had to run out the door when I made his and I didn't know that I took a terrible picture


I also made him some shirts.






and my stud muffin

Happy Birthday baby
