Here's my project:

The CUTEST gift bag ever!

Here is the card I made to go with this gift bag!

Little Piggie is from Create A Critter.

Flowers from Creative Charms.

Papers from Debbie Mumm Nursery Rhyme Pack.

Stamps are from My Pink Stamper.

I chose this Mother Goose rhyme because 

I sang this rhyme to my son when he was little and it was his favorite!  Of course, I used his toes as the "little piggies"!

Owls Trick Or Treat

Hope you guys have a super duper day!

2nd Card for Simply Crafts October Challenge!

I had so much fun making the card for Pam and Glora's challenge at Simply Crafts that I just had to make another card!


Isn't this card just the bomb?  I borrowed Janis' idea (Pausedreamenjoy.blogspot.com) of putting the cut on an Action Wobble.  


Challenge #1 asked us to make a project using the image from page 49 of the Paper Doll Dressup Cricut Cartridge.   Here is the A2 size card I made:

The Monster was cut at 4 inches.  I scrounged around my craft room and found the biggest googlie eyes I had.  I cut this image out twice at 4 inches to layer on top of each other.  Mr. Monster was placed on an Action Wobble.  He is so cute!


The "eyeballs" background paper is from S E I.  I purchased it at the coolest local scrapbook store located in Roswell, New Mexico.


The sentiment is from KAndrewDesigns Fall-O-Ween stamp set.  I just love her stamps!  You can mix and match the stamps to design your own sentiment like I did here!  Check her awesome stamps sets here!  


Thank you so much for visiting my blog.  I enjoy each of you so much and want each of you to know how much you enrich my life.


Happy Crafting!

Simply Crafts October Challenge

Happy Fall Y'all!  I just love fall colors...orange, brown, sage green, pumpkins, scarecrows, Halloween costumes, fall wreaths...hay bales...I could go on and on!


There is a new challenge blog by Simply-Pam and Glora called Simply Crafts.  The challenge is to use the cut on Page 49 of the Paper Doll Dress Up Cricut Cartridge.

Here is my submission for the challenge.  The image is cut at 3.5 inches using paper from Echo Park.  Background striped paper came from a Recollections Paper Pack that I recently purchased at Michael's.  The black fence and pumpkin came from last year's Echo Park Halloween paper collection kit.  Sentiment used is from My Pink Stampers Spook Puns set.  I had so much fun making this card.


If you get a chance, hop on over to Simply Crafts and play with us!
