Love- Platinum Scraps Card Challeng

It's reveal day over at Platinum Scraps, so head on over to see what the other great designers have created!!

This weeks card design was really fun to make and I even got a chance to use my well rested Cuttlebug:-).

 I kept things pretty simple as I wanted the beautiful  butterfly and frame to stand out...

This weeks card was created using the below card sketch from Pagemaps, I also incorporated the Wednesday Tutorial from SCS... cute, cute, cute... I can see many uses for this quick and easy frame.

Supplies used:

Cricut Cartridge- Indie Art (Butterfly), Storybook ( Backgroup shape)

PaperTreyInk- Raspberry Fizz CS

DCWV- The Spring Glitter Stack PP

Stampin Up- Pink Passion ink

Cuttlebug Swiss Dots Folder

Valentine's Day Paint Can!!!

Over on the Sista's thread of the Cricut MB the Sista's participated in a Valentine's Paint Can Swap...

Let me tell you, the Sista's rocked this swap and created some beautiful cans full of crafting goodies!!!

Lucie (Mommaof3girls) sent me this awesome can filled to the brim with goodies, Momma also sent my DD Trinity some goodies (that lil girl was tearing into my box faster then I was:-))

PS: Lucie, I have used my M's gift card... that baby did not last a hot minute!

Faux Leather Wallet

This project gave me back my creative mojo ( woo-hoo, I thought that it was gone for good).

 I made this cute little faux leather wallet for my 9 year old daughter who absolutely loved it and the great thing about the wallet is that it will actually hold items ...  

The faux leather wallet was so quick and easy to make, using the awesome tutorial found below

I used DCWV Stack 6 for the printed paper, cuttlebug heart embossing folder, and generic ribbon...

Everyday Paper Doll Challenge Project

I've been MIA for awhile, but I am back and ready to create!!!
 One of this month's challenges over on the SistaScrapToo blog was to choose a project found at the beginning of the cricut manuals, using the same concept, put your own spin on it.

I decided to create the cute little card from Everyday Paper Dolls, since she was already so cute I left the card the exact same as the example... I used Stampin Up 2009 In Colors for my solid cardstock and DCWV Stack 6 for the PP.

Altered Lunchbox Tin

Using Okie's cut file, I altered this cute little Dollar Tree Tin... so quick and easy and it holds just the right amount of goodies. This tin was a Secret Santa Gift for one of my Sista's over on the Cricut MB...  I used a Prima Flower and Storybook for the embellishments.
