Peachy Keen Stamps ~ Challenge #34

Peachy Keen Stamps has a challenge this week. They have a sketch to follow, which I  flipped a little! I decided to make my Aunt Ruth Ann a Birthday card. She does alot of canning so, I thought this would be perfect for her. She will get a kick out of the tag, which she is "Well Preserved", since she is in her 70's and VERY active! Lol. Hope you enjoy and so glad PKS challenges are back!

Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge #8 ~ "Celebrations"

This week Emma wanted us to make a Birthday themed project out of the Cricut cartridge "Celebrations". So I decided to do the gift bag. I cuttlebugged the present, colored the present, stitched the bag and wrote "Happy Birthday" on the tag. Then I stuffed some tissue paper in the bag and here you have my gift bag. Sorry, my camera is taking horrible pictures, so you might not be able to make out the tag! Thanks for stopping by my blog!

You may alter in it or flip it anyway in which it works for you. They have an amazing design team over there, a must check it out spot! I chose to do a small trip we took with my sister to Long Beach Island in New Jersey. My son was obsessed with the planes flying over our heads ALL day long. "The Plane, The Plane"! My sister will hate that I put her picture in there because it isn't the best side of her...hehehe! Hope you enjoy and go over and check them out over there.

The Cuttlebug Spot Challenge ~ "Christmas In July" and The Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog

The Cuttlebug Spot is having a challenge this week about "Christmas In July". We had to emboss some part of our card. I decided to do a door with a Christmas wreath hanging on it. I used Wild Card Cartridge and a scrap piece of shiny black paper ( sort of like film strip) for my door. I used my Cuttlebug distressed stripes folder and I made it look like an old crackled door! Made a wreath, sort of, and put a shiny brad for the door knob.  So here is my creation and any suggestions on how to make a wreath are welcomed! Hope you enjoy!

Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge #7~ "Wild Card" Cartridge

This week at Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge we had to use the "Wild Card" cartridge. We had to pick our "FAVORITE" holiday! Well I love Halloween. So I changed it up a little~ I picked the Autumn card and the pumpkin card, mixed them together. I used shiny black paper that reminds me of film strip, you really can't tell in the picture. I cut my "Happy Halloween", my spider and bat out of glitter paper. Put some embellishments on and here it is! Hope you enjoy!
