Hi Crafty Friends!

You should have came from  Robin ! if not please head over to Melanie's blog  to start at the beginning.

Ok on to the card.

So here is my little cutie!

I used Create a Critter 2 for the little bee cut. I cut her out @ 3 ½”

The base of her is black glitter paper. The other layers are just randoms I had in my scrap file.

For the card I use a Kraft base that measures 4 by 5 ½”

Then I added a black glitter layer that is ¼” smaller than the base.

The heart layer is next and I cut it ½” smaller than the black. I then ran it through the swiss dots cuttle bug folder.

For the stamp I used a studio g stamp that said be mine so after stamping that I added an extra e.

I think it turned out so cute.

Next you should head over to Vanessa

Dec. 100 cartridge blog hop

 Hi Crafters! 

It is time for the 100 cartridge blog hop with My Cricut Craft room. In this blog hop the design team collectively uses 100 cricut cartridges.

 You should have hopped over from
Nadja http://nadjarobbins.blogspot.com/

If not please start over at My Cricut craft room because you are not gonna want to miss any of the wonderful project today. 

This month I chose to use Birthday Bash, Create a Critter 2, Meow cricut lite, Holiday cakes.

Project 1: Meow 

I cut the image at 4”. The base and all its layers. The card measures 4 ¼ by 5 ½.

The layer papers are from nursery mat stack boy.

I added some glossy accents to the nose and mouth.

Project 2: Birthday Bash and Holiday cakes

I used my G to get the sizing right for this card.

I used Birthday bash for the card base and layer. The base is cut at 5” and the layer was sized and cut @ 4.75”

From the Holiday Cakes cartridge, I cut the mittens from pg 47 @ 3.24

I added the layer and then using a white gel pen I added dash lines around the outside. 

Then I assembled the mittens and popped them up with foam tape. I then used crystal stickles to add some glitter to them. 

I finished off the card with a small red bow. 

Project 3: Create a Critter 2

I cut the tree and shadow on Pg 70 @ 4” 

 For the tree I used some Aleenes snow to give some texture to the snowy layers of the tree.

Then for the star I used golden rod stickles.

After those layers dried overnight, I assembled them and then popped them up on the shadow layer.

For the card and layers, I wanted to keep it simple so I just cut a layer out of snowflake paper and then cut a “hill” freehand for the tree to sit on.

The stamp is from My Pink Stamper Winter punnies stamp set. 

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. I hope you enjoy the hop.

Card Creating Tuesday! Falling for you card

Hi Crafty Friends!

Today is card creating Tuesday and the design team were to make Thanksgiving cards or place cards. I decided that I would make a little Thanksgiving card for my Husband to let him know how much I am thankful for him.

So Lets get started.

For my card I used a craft card base to make an A2 card which measures 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 when folded.

Then I cut my mat layers. The plaid is cut at 4" by 5 1/4
The Orange layer is 3" by 3 3/4
The Green layer is  which I then ran thru the cuttle bug using a folder( from the paper studio sold at hobby lobby) before placing my paper in the folder I inked the folder front(the side with the words) with shabby shutter distress ink. Then I carefully closed the folder and ran it thru the bug.
I love that effect.

I then cut the tree using Create a Critter 2 from page 63 at 3 1/2".

The cuts

assembled

I then used a studio g stamp to emboss the sentiment on green card stock.
I then used the deco scallop punch  to punch a border out in the same orange card stock as the leaves.

Next I adheared all the layer together

 Then added the tree with foam tape.

and that finished up my card. Here it is again.

Thanks for stopping by to see my project. To see more Thanksgiving projects please visit My Cricut Craft Room

Hello and welcome to the ‘Thankful’ Bloghop! This is the time of year we really reflect on what we have to be thankful for. One of those things I am thankful for is scrapbooking and all the crafts, supplies and people that go along with it. A group of people is joining me today, and tomorrow, to share projects that all have the word ‘thank’ on them.

In addition to seeing a lot of awesome creations, there is some blog candy available too. If you comment on everyone’s bloghop post you will be entered to win the goodies. You don’t have to become a follower of the ‘Afternoon Scrapper’ blog too, but it would be great if you did. The prize is a mix of paper, stickers, mists, stencils stickers and more as pictured here:
