Tinkerbell Birthday Card

 
I created this A2 size card for my Besties sweet baby girl, Zoe.
She just turned 3 and loves all things Tinkerbell right now.
 
To create this card I used two Cricut Cartridges.
The green base is from Elegant Edges:
Feature Button: Oblong <Shift>, Button 4 and cut at 5.25
Tink is from Disney Classics:
Using all Feature Layer Buttons: She is Button 27 and cut at 4.0
 
I used my  Cricut Imagine RGB feature for the colors of Tinks Skin, Hair, and Wings.
Skin is R: 253 G: 228 B: 200
Hair is R: 255  G: 245  B: 136
Wings are R: 221  G: 243  B: 239
To find these I googled Tinkerbell RGB Codes and came across this great list by
Courtney Lane Designs...click Here for the direct link.
 
The pink cut that Tink is sitting on is from My Creative Times Vintage Stitched Label Die.
The sentiment is also from My Creative Times Many Greetings stamp set.
I will be entering this card into the MCT Designer Challenge...the challenge was to Emboss.
I used my Cuttlebug Swiss Dots Embossing Folder on Tinks wings and I embossed the sentiment too.
 
I finished off my card by adding Black Divine Twine
and the stitched doodles with my White Gel Pen.
 
Here's a side view...I added dimension by pop dotting Tink and the Vintage Label Die.
I really love how it turned out and can't wait to play some more with my Disney Classic Cartridge.

Love Birds

 
I created this card for my hubby.
I am going to submit it to two separate challenges and a linky party. :)
 
I used the Sweethearts Cricut Cartridge and my Cuddlebug.
The sentiment is from my newest Pink by Design Stamp set Artisan 2 and the cute chevron frame the sentiment is in comes with the stamp set too.
 
The first challenge I am submitting it to is Unscripted Sketches #197
SK 166 US 197

and the second is Twisted Tuesday, which the challenge here is to:
 
Make something for a loving couple. It can be an anniversary card, Valentine card, house warming creation, a scrap page of the happy couple, whatever you like.
THE TWIST
Include the color black, preferably ribbon or lace, but anything black will do
 
Last but not least...I will be linking this to Pink Cricut's Link up Tuesday.
 
Thanks for stopping by,

Follow your Rainbow

 
I am entering this card into the Ink it Pink Challenge by Pink By Design.
This weeks theme was a Rainbow Challenge.
 
I made a shaped Rainbow card using the Hello Kitty Greetings Cricut Cartridge.
I just love this cartridge.
I selected the Card Feature Button on my Gypsy and cut the card base at 11.5w x 3.71h.
I then selected all of the layers and cut them at 4.7w x 3.67 h.
I wanted a little bit of a frame on the inside of the card so I cut it a bit smaller.
 
To finish off my card I embossed the rainbow with the Swiss Dots Cuddlebug Folder, glued the Divine Twine (I got from the Pink by Design store), and stamped my sweet sentiment from
Pink by Design's Simply Everything stamp set.
 
I love how it turned out and how perfect the sentiment works with my card.
 
I am also entering this in The Paper Girls Challenge (Use Twine)
and The Pink Cricut's Link up Tuesday
 
Thanks for stopping by,

Sweet Valentine

 
Oh how I've missed crafting and blogging. 
 
I have had a bit of a crafters block, but am hoping to get back into the swing of things 
by joining some challenges. :)
 
My first challenge of the year I am joining is hosted by My Creative Time's Designer Challenge.
I just love all of Emma's Stamps and Dies.
This challenge is a 1 2 3 challenge.
We are to use 1 Bow, 2 Patterned Papers, and 3 Buttons.
 
To create my card I used My Creative Times XL Label Die and the Teeny Tag Greetings Stamp Set.
The beautiful paper is from an American Crafts 6x6 paper pad I got from Michaels.
The ribbon and buttons were from my stash...I haven't looked at my buttons in so long and was so excited to find these super cute heart buttons. :)
 
To finish my card I added Stickles to the turquoise hearts and some doodled stitching.
 
I will also be Linking this card to the following challenges:

My Creative Time - Designer Challenge

 
Here is my creation for the My Creative Time Designer Challenge.
 
The challenge is hosted by Shar and she chose a color challenge with the additional challenge of including three flowers on the project.
 
 

I had the perfect 6x6 paper pad for this color challenge: Buttercup by LilyBeeDesign.
All of the patterned paper used was with this paper pad.
 
The flower, leaves, & chevron border was cut using the Close To My Heart Artiste Cricut Cartridge:
Feature Button: Accent 2 <Shift> - Button 24, cut at 3.5
The border is a tag welded together using my Gypsy.
Accent 4 - Button 27, cut at 5.5
The leaves can be found on Accent 3 <Shift> - Button 2, cut at 1.25
 
To finish my card I used a My Creative Time Die (Curly Label Die) and Stamp Set (Many Greetings)
 
Side view to show the dimension

So that's it from me...hope you enjoyed! :)

I am also linking this project to Pink Cricut's Link up Tuesday.
