My entry for Creative Time for Me

Emma is using Celebrations again for a super cute Christmas theme.
Check out her blog at: http://www.creativetimeforme.com/2010/10/throwback-thursday-challenge-christmas.html

I used my Cricut Celebrations Cartridge ON MY GYPSY. (Love it!)
I used Cottage Cutz & Peachy Keen Stamps in their special Duo called Penguin Doll. (too adorable)
I used the set of stamps called Christmas Wishes from Pink by Design. (love them)
Then I used some Karen Foster ribbon, My IROCK to bling my Penguin up from the collection of Hot Rocks Compact Jewels, black Bic Mark*it marker, Copic Markers 100,E00,and RV11, and Chalk.

Wrapped in Joy

This was fun.

Smiley Cards Mini-Blog Hop

Crazy about Cricut had an idea late last night about doing a mini blog hop this morning, with cuts from the new Gypsy download....(you have till tomorrow to register your gypsy for this exclusive download!)

This is a quick card from Smiley Cards. Now this was truly last minute so bear with me. 

I used stamps from Pink By Design from Take the Cake set.

 I thought I was doing Blackletter one of the other free downloads so I'll show the little embellishments I made with them as well.  I am also happy to say it was the first time using my Gypsy with the Imagine. The Imagine cuts way better for me than my E. Hooray!! My first hop too. Lots of firsts today!!

I cut out a blue M and popdotted it to the M inside that  I welded.

I loved this symbol and welded it to a frame. You could open it up and there is a pic.

Putting the shield inside the frame used my Bic Markit markers

The Mini Blog Hop goes as follows:

I really wanted to get some Halloween ribbons so I wouldn't be caught off guard next year.
I might still do something this year!

July this year.. My first entry ever into anyone's challenge.....

Thank you Emma.

This is the challenge I entered.  I am including her link and my entry.

http://www.creativetimeforme.com/2010/07/throwback-thursday-challenge-8.html

This was fun! I love the bright colors! I used the Happy birthday Cuttlebug folders.. and used a little chalking on them. I used my Celebrations cartridge and I used the Irock as well.

I had fun. I also love blog hops as well. 

August 15th I entered again in one of Emma's Challenges how fun!

I love Emma's Throwback Thursdays!

Over at My Creative Time -- http://www.creativetimeforme.com/ --
Emma is back and doing her Throwback Thursday challenge a day early this time.

The challenge was to use the Paisley Cartridge (or any other older one) to create a Back to School Project of your choice.

I was excited to try again. I couldn't wait to use one of my embossing folders from the Asian bundle. Yes I redeemed my cricut rewards and got the bundle for free. whew hew. I also couldn't wait to bust open the box of CottageCutz dies with Peachy Keen Stamps! This was gonna be my first experience with box these products. Way cool. I chose Happy Lil Frog and I used a little Copic yellow marker on the crown AND I used my way cool IROCK to adorn his crown. Those rocks were the perfect size. I'm happy to say my LSS is carrying IRock however they haven't gotten in any of the stencil stuff. No worries there because OH MY CRAFTS has met my IROCK needs!

I'll attach the two pics of my work for the challenge. I was happy to participate. I am eagerly awaiting Ms. Emma's DVD which should be arriving by the end of the month! whew hew.

That's it for now.
Enjoy.
and HappyScrappn!

Back in August of this year...

I entered my first Peachy Keen Challenge. It was Challenge 35, Color Combo Sketch Challenge.
I have fun using my Asian Cuttlebug Folders.
I stickled the butterflies and used a stamping embossing type tip for the background. I love my lady.

The Birthday Card I did for my Niece

My niece Lynsday's birthday was Sept 24th, turning 2, and I made a little card for her.

I was able to attend her birthday party and here's a pic of her and the card I made.

I love my Peachy Keen Stamps.. I also used my new Pink by Design stamps. The title set of stamps is Simply Everything from the Pink by Design. It worked perfectly. I played with my Copic markers to color the little guy. I did used stickles on the birds's legs.. and I used my Sakura gelly roll on the scalloped edges. Oh yeah and I used my Cuttlebug folders.. the Happy Birthday and my new folder set Measure by Measure.. the stars were for the border. I used my Cricut Cartridge Just Because.

We had a good time at her party.

My First EVER IRON ON T-SHIRTS using the Imagine!

I've seen so many cute shirts out there. I thought I'll give it a shot! I am showing the item I bought at Michaels and the 2 shirts I made for my nephew Kai. He was born on Halloween. He will be 3.  I'm waiting for JT and the Carnival carts to arrive so in the meantime I am playing with what I got. The first shirt I used Imagine More. The second shirt I plugged in Life is a Beach and flood filled from Imagine More. Today Michaels has that coupon for items that are onsale so  I might get some more shirts cuz I think my niece needs some shirts as well. I had problems with this FUSE sticking to the mat. The second shirt I had to hit stop and manually cut out all the elements. Hmm wonder how I can get it to stick better hmm.

Using Imagine More

Bought at my local Michaels

Life is a Beach Cart Flood filled from Imagine More

That's all for now. I hope the colors show. I did take the pics outside.
