Purrfect....It's Your Birthday!

Hello Crafty Friends,

 

I squeezed in a card today before I head back to school tomorrow for another week of jam-packed learning. Thanksgiving Break is in 3 weeks, so I know I will have some extra crafting time soon. Then, Winter Break is 3 weeks after that. We will have 2 1/2 weeks off. Half the school year will be completed at that time. Time sure does fly by!

Eek! I Have Missed an Entire Week

Good Afternoon Crafty Friends,

 

I finally had time to sit down today and make a Halloween card after being out of commission for a week. First, I went home sick with no voice last Thursday. Couldn't teach without talking...and kids do not understand sign language all that well either. Then, my son got sick. I had to get him from college and bring him to the ER. He is better now and back at school. Finally, first quarter ended and grades were due.

 

What a week!

 

 Here is my Halloween card...

Materials:

scrap papers

dark purple cardstock

Mini Monsters Cricut cartridge ~ witch hat (p. 68) flipped and cut at 2 1/4"

All Mixed Up Cricut cartrisge ~ circles cut at 5" and 5 1/4"

orange ribbon

purple button

orange and green gems

eek! eposxy sticker by Recollection

Good Morning Crafty Friends,

Today I have another fun birthday card for a little man. He loves pirates and is going to be 6 years old. What a great age, and boy... can the imagination run wild. Can you imagine wearing a patch while running around bellowing "AAARGH!" Maybe then, but not now.

Be sure to count the gold gems in the treasure chest. There is one for each year.

3 Birds on Parade Cricut cartridge ~ Pirate (p. 35) cut at 3 1/2" and sentiment (p. 35) cut at 1 1/4"
Life's a Beach Cricut cartridge ~ treasure chest (p. 75) cut at 1"

A new challenge begins this Monday at Exploring Cricut. Hope you will join us.
