Simply Charmed Bunny with homemade flowersoft

This bunny was cut from the Simply Charmed Cricut cartridge. I hid the face features so I could use a Peachy Keen critter face stamp. The carrot was ran through the Cuttlebug using a Stampin Up embossing folder and the leaves were cut twice, the top layer was feathered. I had taken a styrofoam ball and shaved it with my grater, I then applied glue to the areas I wanted fluffy and sprinkled the shredded foam on top. I love the texture it created.I had used this same technique on a bigger bunny for a bulletin board at work for a spring layout.

Thanks for looking.

Cars shaped card

 This card was made using my gypsy and the Disney Cars cricut cartridge. I used the route 66 sign and welded two of them together to make a shape card. I then cut out all the layers and used the gypsy to hide contours and make the shapes the way I wanted. The stamps are a fiskars stamp set that I used to emboss the background and stamp the car. I colored the car with watercolor pencils and added some sparkle to the detailing with squibbles iridescent.

Thanks for looking.

Hello Kitty Butterfly with Peachy Keen Stamps

I tried out my two favorite things on this card (Gypsy and Peachy Keen's Wide Eyed Kids face stamps). If you have not tried Peachy Keen stamps, you don't know what your missing. Kathy's stamps stamp perfectly without much pressure and they bring life to your projects.

I used the butterfly from Hello Kitty Greetings cricut cartridge and hid the contours in the face and body for stamping and highlighted with a jelly roll white gel pen.  The designer paper is from Prima "Rock on Love". The side accents are from Gypsy Wanderings cricut gypsy cartridge. I will add a sentiment later.

Thanks for looking.

Paisely birthday card - hula hoop dog

This card was made using the Paisley cartridge that my daughter and I made for her friend's birthday. She picked out the colors that she thought her friend would like. The background papers are from the Flower Shower stack from DCWV. I used Scribbles glittering crystal 3d paint on the collar and hoop for some added sparkle. The sentiment is from a Hero Arts stamp set embossed with white embossing powder ad placed a bling on each side with my i-rock.

Hello Kitty Gift set

My daughter's best friend in kindergarten just recently moved away and she wanted to make something for her. So we took out the Hello Kitty Greetings cricut cartridge and cut out a few Hello Kitty shapes. The purse was made using Stampin up card stock and micheals ribbon and the sentiment is from a micheals dollar stamp. Inside the purse we had made a small beaded bracelet with a Hello Kitty bead in the middle for her to wear. The purse came out 4x4 squared. The brad on the purse is from Target. On the card we had used Stampin Up papers from a mat stack. The sentiment on the card is a stamp from "The Angel Company".

Thanks for looking.

Books are Fun SCAL project

These were cut using the SCAL program and the cricut. Each book cover was embossed with a sizzix texture plate.  The books are 7" are were made for a bulletin board at school to welcome back the Jr./Sr. high classes.  I had also made a book for the staff later.  The cricut has been an awesome tool cause I can cut anything out for any occassion.  Thanks for looking.

License Plate family sign

This sign was made for a dear friend of mine.  All pieces were stamped with the License plate stamp I found on clearance from Micheals and cut out. I glimmered all the pieces with my homemade glimmer mist.  In the first picture the fishing pole was cut using the cricut and I embossed the pole handle with a cuttlebug folder.  The fish and fishing lure background are from a Stampin Up set. In the second picture the flower was done using Accent Essentials cricut cartridge and the Tim Holtz flower technique, a placed a clay rose center in the middle of the flower. The music stamp is a background stamp from Stampendous (love this stamp).  In the third picture the panda is an Inkadinkadoo stamp and the tummy was flocked, the bamboo background is from Stampin Up. I attached the pieces to chipboard and covered the back with DSP.  I strung all pieces together with swivel barrels from the fishing dept. at my local store. The letters are from a Heidi Swapp stamp set.  I am very pleased at the way this sign has turned out. Thanks for looking.

Spongebob card

This card I had made for my grandson who loves Spongebob. I used the Spongebob cricut cartridge and I must say this was one of the hardest cuts that I've had to do with my cricut, there are so many small pieces and this was a fairly big card. Even though it was time consuming I was pleased with the outcome. Thanks for looking.

Retirement pockets

So I was asked by my co-workers to create some pockets to put inside a book for each person retiring this year. I made each pocket unique to the person. The pockets are 4x5" and will be filled with a gift card, they wanted to keep the packaging on the gift card for the recipient that's why the pockets are a bigger size than the normal credit card size. My favorite is the Elvis pocket. I took apart a floppy disk and used the inside as the record and cut out a silhouette on my cricut using scal. The music paper was from the Elvis song "Love me Tender" which I had printed on my computer and distressed.


Thanks for looking,

Elephant birthday card


This card was made for a friend who is turning 50. She loves elephants and also has a great sense of humor so this image was perfect for her. I cleaned up the image in inkscape and then cut out the image using SCAL and my cricut. The beer drops are done using skittles. She loved this card.

baby shower bootie - SCAL



For this project I had received a template from a fellow crafter Pinkcrafter99 for this baby bootie. I did not want to go through the hassle of cutting out by hand so I loaded the template into inkscape and created an svg for scal to cut on the cricut. I then cut out the bootie with scal. Because this is for a friends shower I wanted to incorporate the stamp used on the invitation with the bootie, so I stamped the image on shrink plastic and colored with permanent markers then I punched out with a 1 1/2" scallop punch, this made the button for the bootie.
Thanks for looking.
