Frog and Tongue

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to Carson's Creations and thanks for stopping by today! I sure hope this creations makes you smile because I am still giggling! My husband and daughter think I have a bit of a weird sense of humor.

This frog was a freebie and I when I saw it posted I knew I had to cut it. Then I was going through some of my stamps and found one that seemed to be be made just for it! 

I added a ladybug brad (trying to use my stash and I had no flies) by Eyelet Outlet and Brads. I always buy them when I go to a scrapbook expo, but then hardly use them. Vicious cycle with hoarding supplies! In the other corners...a couple Skittles by Carri.

The silly frog (Little Scraps of Heaven) is mounted on pop dots for dimension.

The sentiment is by Jaded Blossom...Miscellaneous Fun set. Don't you agree that this sentiment matches the frog perfectly? Not sure who is getting this card, but it sure is fun!
Other Materials:
My Mind's Eye pattern paper (background)
American Crafts polka dot paper ~ Amy Tangerine
black, white, and red card stock
VersaMagic ink ~ Tea Leaves
Versafine Onyx Black ink

Hope you have a great day!

Stay Creative,
Georgiana

Chicks Rule with Scrappy Moms Stamps

Hello Everyone!

Welcome back to Carson's Creations and thanks for stopping by on this marvelous Monday! It's going to be a great day!

The weekend flew by, but I was able to get a couple cards finished, which always pleases me. I wanted to enter the Scrappy Moms challenge ~ Spring is in the Air, so I made this cutie. I am thinking she is perfect! Plus, I wanted to use some of my brads I have been hoarding. You really can have too many!

The Spring chick is from Miss Kate Cuttables. I used my Cameo to cut her out. I just added the polka dot bow.

I used the new stamp set from April's Release.

Other Challenges:

Enjoy your week! Be sure to come back tomorrow for Die Cuttin' Diva's new challenge.

Smile...It's Friday!

Hello Everyone! 
Welcome back to Carson's Creations and thanks for stopping by!

I am extremely glad it is Friday! It has been a week...testing, drama, papers, etc. The thought of a weekend puts a smile on my face! Don't get me wrong...I LOVE to teach, but some of the other "stuff" is not a favorite. Just let me teach!

I thought this card might put a smile on your face...just like it did for me!

I used the Miss Kate Cuttables pretty sun. I selected a few shades of yellow card stock, inked some of the edges, and used foam dots for dimension.

The sentiment stamped on the cloud is from Scrappy Moms newest release.

Hope you have a fabulous Friday and a wonderful weekend!

Stay Creative,
Georgiana

Celebrate Administrative Professionals Day

Hello Everyone!
Welcome Back to Carson' s Creations...thanks for stopping by!

Yesterday on my way home from school my hubby called me and asked if I had time to make him two cards for his secretaries. He said he was on the way to the store to buy gift cards and he would buy cards if I was too busy. I told him I had something I needed to do and maybe I would have time. He said he would just buy two cards...YES...that is what he actually said! My body cringed at the sound of that, so...I told him I had another idea. 

I used the seed packet file from the night before...the gift card fit in each one perfectly! Gotta' love when one project file has multiple purposes.
NO store bought cards here!

I used Word (Lucinda Calligraphy) to create the sentiment for the tag (Spellbinders ~ Label Eleven). More 3 Girl JAM ribbon and Miss Kate Cuttables flower.

Here is the free SVG file again. 

I made a few more in different colors, but changed the tag sentiment. Easy Peasy!
Other Material:
card stock from scrapbox 
twine
buttons
gems/pearls
Versafine Onyx Black ink

Hope you have a great night! Let me know what you think and please share what you are currently working on. Soon I am going to be experimenting with watercolors and stamping. Also, I am curious to know what are some of your favorite on-line stores. I am a bit disappointed with Michaels, Joann, and Hobby Lobby...I need some NEW choices! 

Stay Creative,
Georgiana

Thanks for stopping by again! Today I am sharing the new challenge at Die Cuttin' Divas. Hope you will join us this week!

This Week's Challenge...
Garden

Here is my Design Team project...
I made a seed packet, which is a free svg file at SVG Cutting Files (see below).
You can then fill the envelope with any type of seed...flowers, vegetables, grass, etc. A round pink flower from Miss Kate Cuttables decorates the cover.  

Easy to cut and assemble!

This is new crinkle ribbon coming soon to the 3 Girl JAM store. I just love the color! I topped it with a twine bow and green button. A Spellbinder tag was stamped with a Jaded Blossom stamp (from the Miscellaneous Fun set) in Versa Magic Tea Leaves ink.
Other Materials:
pink, green, cream, and kraft card stock
polka dot paper ~ DCWV Playtime stack
pink gems
Zinnia seeds ~ Walmart

Hope you will join us at Die Cuttin' Divas this week for our "Garden" challenge. The other design team members have made beautiful flowers. Be sure to check out their projects.

What's Up?

Hello Crafty Friends,

Just sharing a quick card that goes along with this past week's Die Cuttin' Diva challenge...Zoo Awareness. I originally posted an elephant, but had cut this giraffe with my Cameo too. I finally put all the pieces together and found a saying that I liked. My hubby asked why I chose this one...I had to explain because of his long neck. I think he was giving me a hard time because then he said "that was a stretch". I told him he made a punny too. 

This giraffe is part of the Cutesy Zoo Animal set from KaDoodle Bug Designs. It is still 90% off if you are interested!


The sentiment is computer generated, but I did find a giraffe stamp set for future reference from MFP Stamp Shop.
Other Materials:
goldenrod, rust, brown, tan, and black card stock
pattern paper from scrap box
tan ribbon ~ Michaels

Hope you will come back tomorrow for the new Die Cuttin' Diva challenge.

Stay Creative,
Georgiana
