Scalley Wag!

Ok, who knew scalley wag was a pirate term?! Not me! But I love it! I know I've called some people that name in my day. LOL I just got the Bucaneer Imagine Cart tonight. I knew I wanted to do something with it, but didn't know what. I just threw this together real quick and I guess it's ok. My hubby likes it. :)

He's a mean fishy, scally wag!

He's so mad!!! LOL

I popped up the layers that were available for the fish.

 It gives the fish some dimension.

I also inked all of the edges of the fish layers in black.

I printed 2 squares in 2 different patterns that are on the cart. The card

base is craft paper and inked with Chocolate Studio G ink.

Hope you enjoyed!!!  Don't forget to comment and become a follower. I will return the favor.

AHAHAHHAHA!!! I'm so happy to say announce that I am on Kristal Andrew's new Junior Design Team. I can't wait to start working with her and her amazing team she has! Thank you Kristal for the opportunity!

Rosette Topper

Hello everyone! I was blog surfing last night and came across a post on My Creative Time . Emma made some rosette toppers for her pencils from the Art Philosphy cartridge. I, however, do not own that cart, but I did design the same cut on my Gypsy using George & Basic Shapes. I cut the scallop from Cindy Loo. I then applied a button on the top scallop and used Honeydew baker's twine from The Twinery for the bow.

*If anyone is interested in the gypsy cut file, please leave a message on this blog w/ your email address and I'll be happy to send it out. Follower's welcome as well. :)

CRICUT 360º - Challenge # 13 - Welcome Baby

This is the first challenge I have entered. I made this card about a month ago for a co-worker that is having a baby boy. I used the Create a Critter and Sugar & Spice Lite cartridges and the Safari stack from DCWV. Enjoy.

My FIRST Blog Award!!!

While going through a comment on a previous post, I came across a message stating that I recieved a Blog Award. I received this award from Linda @ LadyBug Lair in JULY! Yes, I'm 3 months late. But I'm so very grateful. Thank you soooo much Linda.

Hello Friend

Wow, it's been a while since my last post. I've not really crafted that much lately and tonight for some reason, I had a big urge to make a card. I got out my Gypsy (love her) and went to work. I love the color pink, so I made that a theme for this card. Hope you enjoy and I hope to keep this craft bug I've just caught. :)

Recipe : Pink Cardstock from Recollections

Paper Studio Paper Pack (can't remember name..sorry)

Cricut Carts : Elegant Edges and George & Basic Shapes

Pink Ribbon

Sentiment from Studio G Stamps

Apple Card - Hello

This card was made with the help of my hubby. I cut the apple from the Serenade cartridge, the circle from George and other Shapes, and the tag from Home Accents. The pattern paper is from DCWV Bella Cafe paperstack. I like how everything turned out, EXCEPT, I think I probably need a new glue pad. My stamp isn't quite right. But you get the idea. :) Happy Crafting.

Lady Bug Card

It's been a while, but I'm back and hopefully, I can start posting more often.  Here is a card I finished a few days ago. I used Paisley for the lady bug and the other images are from SCAL.

Spring Bunnies - Friends

It's been a while. I've been really busy with work and everyday living. I've also not been able to come up with many ideas either! Hopefully, looking at some of the other ladies cards will give me some inspiration. Here's a card I designed tonight. Didn't take long at all. I cut out 6 petals, 3 different sizes, and held them together with a brad. I got the paper and some really cook clear rub on embelishments from Target! The $1 bin is my best friend. Hope you enjoy. First pic is the front of card, the second is the inside of card.
