Boot Card

Bitten by the bug 2 is having a garden boot challenge. So when I saw this rain boot in the April Showers Cricut Cartridge, I knew that I wanted to make it into a shape card. Since spring is here, I wanted to go with a spring theme.



Have you ever seen those cute flowerpots that are shaped like rain boots? Will thats where my inspiration came from. I added some tulips from the Create a Critter Cartridge to the top of the boot, to make it look like flowers were growing inside of it:) I used some of my Peachy Keen Stamps to give the flowers faces, and make the card cheerful.


I stamped some spring theme images to the card, and added some Studio G glitter glue to outline the flowers on the rain boot. For the cute little tag and (Happy Spring) stamp, I used My Creative Time "Teeny Tag Greetings."


For the inside of the card I stamped (Miss you) by My Creative Time "Small Talk" stamp set . I think this cute spring card would make a nice card to send to a friend or family member that you haven't seen or talked to in awhile.

I will entering this card in:
Bitten by the bug 2: Garden Boot Challenge.

Thank you for stopping by and leaving me a comment:)

Peace, Love, & Cricut Hug's!

Wow, so darn cute. Love the flowers with the happy faces peeking out. If that doesn't make you feel more like Spring I don't know what would. Thanks for sharing with us at BBTB2. Please consider turning off your word verification to make your blog more user friendly.

Love your boot card!!! I've been thinking about a card for my mom for mother's day and I wanted it to have something to do with Texas. I've been toying with the idea of a western boot (girly like) with flowers, but wasn't sure if it was going to look nice or just plain silly - thanks to you now I know. Your card is adorable!

Halloween Card with Tim Holtz stamp

Image
Hi crafty friends, I made this card with one of Tim Holtz day of the dead stamps. A rather simple, but super cute 4x4 card. This was the first time I made a card this size, and it won't be my last:) I used my Spectrum Nior color pencils to color the flowers on the image and some Tim Holtz stickles. I added some sequence on the corners of the cards and stamped a Halloween sentiment on the inside of the card. Simple, easy, and cute:) I would love to enter my card into  the  Simon says stamptember Tim-holtz challenge . Thank you for stoping by, and leaving me some crafty love. Have a great day Crafty friends:)

Easter Treat Tubs

Hello fellow bloggers:) I have another Easter project to share with you all today. I used the color key from  Color Throwdown  as my color inspiration for my cute bunnies. The bunnies are from  Peachy Keen's  March 2013 monthly stamp club kit. I colored them with my Spectrum Nior markers. I've been saving these tubes for awhile now. I knew that they could be recycled into something awesome in the future, and boy was I right:)lol. I used a lot of  My Creative Time's  dies and stamp sets on my project. If you don't have any of  Emma's  products you must get your hands on some. They are absolutely fabulous and high quality just like Peachy Keen's  are:)   I would love to enter the following challenges: Color Throwdown: Chanllenge 289 Die Cuttin Divas: Challenge 162 Earth Day Cardz Tv: Challenge 6 Spring Craftin Desert Divas: Linky Party 3 Girl Jam: All Things Spring Ooh-la-la Creations Challenges Little Scrap Pieces: Happy Eas

Enjoy the Simple Things

Hello fellow crafters, I have a card to share with you all today. For my card today, I used the BINGO theme from House Mouse Challenge . I used the line right in the middle (Orange, Yellow, and Green) option. These three colors remind me of fall, and I love fall! The aroma of pumpkin, cooler weather, the holidays, just love what fall brings along. I recently purchased this stamp at Scrapbooking Made Simple , a local scrapbooking store (they also have an online store option) and I really wanted to use it, so I thought this challenge would be a perfect time to do so. The colorful leaf paper is from the DCWV Amber Autumn card stock stack. I used one of my Nestabilities dies to cut out a piece of orange card stock. The name of the House Mouse stamp that I used, is called "Fence Falling."                                                                                   The sentiment is from  My Creative Time , the cute tiny green, orange, and yellow leaves are
