Creative Cutting Challenge #15 Wedding

Time for another Creative Cutting Challenge!

This time our focus is on weddings

and I made this card:

I was really unsure what I was going to make..

Once I looked at the Wedding Set from 

Creative Pointe, available at Cut and Create

I had this vision. I love how it turned out!

Pause Dream Enjoy Challenge #9 Outdoor Critters

Ch# 9 Outdoor Critters

Begins: Monday, Apr 29

Ends: Sunday, May 12

Prize MFPS "Tweet That"
(must have a USA address)

Winner announced in the WINNERS Page Tab

Here's what I created for this challenge:

I saw this wrapping paper and thought our nephew

would love it! Then of course I needed to make a card 

to go with it. I used the Dyno-mite Birthday 

cutting file from Scraptastical Kreations. I changed

the spots and made a spiked under layer to match the 

wrapping paper. I also added the gifts. This 

file also comes with balloons that I did not use.

I hope you enjoy my project!

Butterfly Hop

Thank you for fluttering by today and seeing all the butterflies

we have in this hop. These crafters have preformed butterfly

magic again with their creations and I hope you enjoy

looking at the beauty of these creations.

Jearise from http://lorbysworld.blogspot.com is our hostess

today and she has a butterfly filled gift for one lucky visitor

today so please make sure you begin

at her blog to find out how to enter the drawing.

Here is my little bit of butterfly magic for today...

For my card I used the butterfly background
from the Silhouette Online Store, by Hero Arts.
I painted the card with watercolors and then glued the
white background over it. The Hello is cut from a
font I have. I added a little American Crafts glitter tape
for a fun finish,

Thank you so much for joining us today we

hope you enjoyed fluttering through! 
Head on over to Jamie's blog to finish the hop!

Green is good Blog Hop!

Green is good Blog Hop!

 Something recycled, something re-purposed, whether it’s a milk jug

turned in to a scoop, or a tin can made in to a pencil holder. Maybe

your kids planted some trees to help the environment, or maybe

you did. There are tons of ways to get greener in everyday life.

Today we are showing off our creations to celebrate Earth Day 2013.

If you’re just starting here make sure to head over to the beginning

at My Life in Arts’ n Crafts’. I hear she’s giving away some goodies!

This is what I started with :

This is what I made:

I covered my box with papers from the DCWV Girlhood

Stack and Mod Podge

Fancy Fold Cards is the theme today, how fun and

different then the ordinary card, this is the fancy fold

I chose to make to inspire you!

For this card I used several cutting files. 

First I used Lori Whitlock's side step card, 

Grass by Silhoette, The corn is from SVG cuts

Grandpa's Organic Farm. The hose is from 

Treasure Box Designs Cool In The Pool set

and the girl is from Treasure Box Designs

Funny farm set. The card stock is assorted 

scraps and for patterned paper I used 

scraps of My Little Shoe Box Happy Go

Lucky On Cloud 9 and Close To my heart 

Dotty for You collection. The stamp I used 

is from the Paper Smooches Whimsical set.

I used 1 of the 2 birds in the set. They are

attached, I cut it out after stamping it.

I hope you have enjoyed my project today, enough to leave a little 

love through commenting. Our host is having a nice giveaway and

a variety of blogs may be offering some blog candy as well, they all have

their own wishes for you to win on their own blog, so don't forget to read

Creative Cutting Challenge "Baby"

Time for another Creative Cutting Challenge!

This time we made baby items! 

I love mine so much I had a hard time 

waiting to share..

I made this adorable BABY banner using 

Baby Set by Creative Pointe, available at

the Cut and Create store to make all my cute

accents. The banner flags are from the Banners

(hybrid template) by Girl boy Girl Designs

and the fabulous letters are from Lettering Delights

and are called Lockets of Love Letters

I did not want the same baby banner I have

made several times before so I decided to 

hang the cute lil baby icons as charms from

ribbon throughout the banner.

Be sure to head over to the Creative Cutting

Challenges blog and enter your baby project!
