Pink Design Team - Pumpkin Card and an update.

Hello Crafters!!! Welcome to another Pink Design Team post featuring My Pink Stamper Spooky Puns stamp set. I can not get enough of Robyn's stamps, they are so easy to use and always give such a crisp image!! So today I am using the 'Pick of the Patch' stamp. I used the Martha Stewart Embossing heat tool and embossing powder in green to really make it pop and the Cricut cartridge I used was Simply Charmed.

My Pink Stamper is hosting a Halloween/Fall Challenge over on HER BLOG. All you have to do is hop on over there and link your project to Mr. Linky!!

  I hope you like it as much as I do, I'm thinking of framing it and hanging it on the front door :) I hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the week and a great weekend!! 

Update: First I want to say THANK YOU for all the WONDERFUL get well wishes left on my giveaway post! Reading everyone's comments has been so SO nice! My Dr put me on antibiotics {YAY} to help me feel better. Still no baby,  no contractions, nothing! I feel like I am at a standstill, blessing though because I would not want to be in labor feeling so yucky!  Thank you again for your nice words and thoughts!!

My Pink Stamper Design Team - Spider Card

Good morning and welcome to another My Pink Stamper Design Team Post!! I am excited to share with you one one of my MOST favorite cards I have made.  I used my Gypsy and Cricut markers to draw this adorable spider and I just love how it came out! First I drew the spider with the markers then used the shadow feature to cut it out. The spider is cut from Doodlecharms (I think he is my favorite spider of all), the face is from Peachy Keen stamps, the paper I used is K&Company - Halloween Whimsy and the Happy Halloween stamp is from My Pink Stamper Spooky Puns Stamp set - which I LOVE!! I hope you enjoy this card as much as I enjoyed designing it!! Have a great day and don't forget to check out all the other AMAZING Design Team member posts!!

Good morning! Please forgive me, I have not posted in several days. I am now 37 weeks pregnant and I feel as if I lost my creative inspiration, I'm sure I'll get it back when I start nesting (hopefully).  It's very hard for me to sit at my crafting table without my back hurting or my belly getting in my way. I know I have a blog line up and I will hopefully get back to that as soon as the baby comes.  BUT check back tomorrow because I will have my design for My Pink Stamper Design Team!! Have a great day everyone!

Hello Kitty Card

Hello my crafting friends! I made this adorable card using the Hello Kitty cartridge. I have to admit this cartridge confuses me.  So I used my Cricut Markers and the silhouette feature key to draw 'Kitty' and then cut the design with the shadow feature. I did that all with my Gypsy. Then I used patterned paper and my markers to finish 'Kitty' off!  For my sentiment I used one of My Pink Stamper's NEW stamp sets - Everyday Life.  I just love her stamps! I hope you enjoy this card :)

 Morning, For this card I used Celebrate with Flourish, one of the Cricut Lite carts. I thought the little ice skates were so cute! This cartridge has a lot of different holiday and seasonal cuts, it's great. For the sentiment I used My Pink Stamper stamps - Winter Punnies. Enjoy!!

We Will Never Forget

I can still remember where I was at the exact moment tragedy hit this day in 2001, as many of you do as well.  My thoughts and prayers will always be with the families who lost their precious loved ones. 

I would like thank all our Men and Women who so boldly and bravely serve our country, we are ever so grateful for all you do. Your sacrifice and time away from your loved ones will never be taken lightly. 

Below is a 12 x 12 layout.  A friend of mine asked me if I would scrapbook her photos from a recent tour overseas, and I've never been so honored, especially after viewing these three particular photos.  

The title of this layout says it all.

Peachy Keen Challenge #36

Hi Everyone, today has been a CRAZY day! I wanted to have my design done last night for the Peachy Keen Challenge but that just didn't happen.  Here is the sketch and color palette we had to follow:

So while I was making dinner tonight I was able to sneak away a few times and finished my project! I'm very happy with the way it turned out, but the colors were such a challenge. I didn't have anything close to the actual colors.  Hope you like it!!

Cricut Viewer Request

Hello everyone! Today is Cricut Viewer Request, but since it's my first Tuesday doing this I wanted to post my completed project which was a Sneak Peek from several days ago.  I finally got them finished. I switched a few things around and I am very happy with the way things turned out!! 

I used 3 1/2 x 6 3/4 paper sacks that I picked up at Micheals.  I cut the height of the sacks to be 5in tall, then added my cardstock and embellishments.  You can really put anything and everything in this treat bags. I used pencils for the photo, thought it was fitting.  For next Tuesday I will be using the Hello Kitty cartridge and Cricut Markers!!!  Enjoy!
