Happy St. Patrick's Day ~ Use Green at Miss Kate Cuttables

Hello Everyone,

Welcome back and thanks for stopping by on this terrific Tuesday.  Today I am sharing the new challenge at Miss Kate Cuttables. Hope you will join us this month for the challenge!

This Month's Challenge is...

Green

Here is my Design Team project...

I decided to celebrate St. Patrick's Day since I just made a green birthday card. What a fun set for anyone crazy about leprechauns.

I used the Miss Kate Cuttables leprechaun file and made it into a shaped card. Just use the mirror and weld feature on the Cameo...super easy! The inside is stamped Happy St. Patrick's Day.

I used the shamrock from the same file to as the focal point on this treat bag. I added green glitter glue for a touch of sparkle. The stamped sentiment is by Jaded Blossom ~ Luck of the Irish set.

This is a retired set, but perfect for this time of year!

Hope you will join us at Miss Kate Cuttables for "Green". The other design team members did a spectacular job with this one. Be sure to check out ALL the variety!

Thanks for stopping by!

Stay Creative,

March's Sketch at Die Cuttin' Diva...Plus DoubleClick Green

Hello Everyone,

I sure hope you have been enjoying this super Sunday. The weather here in Florida turned out to be a fabulous day...to bad the weekend is almost over. Another day off like today would be great. Since that is not going to happen I will just keep thinking about Spring Break right around the corner!

I haven't made any projects (DTs or challenges) in the last week (bummer) since I have been busy with school, presenting at a math training, and my neck occasionally causing some slight discomfort (which puts you out of the mood to craft). I was so glad to be able to create this special birthday card for a co-worker. Hoping to find a little more time tonight!

I used the Die Cuttin' Diva's Sketch from last Tuesday.

I used the Forget Me Not set by My Favorite Things.

These are Plenty purple skittles by DoubleClick. Last week's challenge was green. You still have time to join the challenge!

The stamped sentiment in the lower right corner is by Scrappy Moms Stamps ~ More Mini Messages.

Other Materials:

Bo Bunny pattern paper

kraft and white card stock

Martha Stewart ink ~ copper and stem green

Colorbox ink ~ purple

Other Challenges:
Connie Can Crop ~ Anything Goes
Little Scrap Pieces ~ Show It Off Saturday
Jo's Scrap Shack ~ Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello Friends,

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

Before I share, I need to announce my Cupid Strikes Again blog hop winner.  

The winner is...Debby Pannell. You will receive a surprise goodie pack from me!

This Week's Challenge...

Kid's Theme

Here is my Design Team project...

I have been eager to try more shaped cards and I am starting to work with the mirror and weld features with ease. I saw this dump truck and thought any boy would love it.

I thought the dump truck by Miss Kate Cuttables was too cute, so I made two! The stamped sentiment is by Jaded Blossom ~ Valentine Treats set

Double the trouble!

Hope you will join us at Die Cuttin' Divas this week for our "Kid's Theme" challenge. The other design team members  sure did a fantastic job cheering up any little girl or boy with their kiddie projects. Be sure to check out the variety!

Thinking of You

Happy Monday! It's President's Day, which means a day off to do all those things that weren't finished over the weekend. I already have a list just thinking about it! Hoping to find time to make another project later today (might go to the movies with hubby). Right now I would like to share a card I made late last night for a few challenges. 

Since it was Valentines Day I was in the pink and red mood. The Recollections and Paper Studio papers complimented each other nicely. 

I used the following sketch from Stick It Down.

 This is my favorite die from My Favorite Things...Scribble Roses. I remember buying these with my daughter during my first trip to their store in Eustis. I am so glad I decided to get them! I added a touch of pink glitter glue to the overlay. 

The butterfly was cut with an ArtC die and the MFT banner from Blueprints 13 was stamped with a sentiment by Whimsical Designs. 

Other Challenges:

Jo's Scrap Shack ~ Red, White, and Pink

Little Scrap Pieces ~ Show it off Saturday

Pause Dream Enjoy ~ Anything Goes

That Craft Place ~ Anything Goes

Hiding in My Craft Room ~ Super Scraps Saturday

DL.Art ~ Pink, Red, Hearts, and/or All

Stay Creative,

By My Side...Happy Valentine's Day!

 Happy Saturday!

Thanks for stopping by at Carson's Creations. Hope you are enjoying the start to your weekend, especially if you have a long one like me. So glad to have an extra day off...never have enough time to do everything, so an extra day is good!

I surely enjoy working with the Tim Holtz distress inks (this one is barn door) and I am always impressed with clean and simple cards, so I thought I would try combining the two. What do you think? Does this classify as CAS?

I used My Favorite Things Blueprint 20  for the scalloped mat and stitched rectangle. The dual heart is from my Silhouette library. The stamped sentiment is from a retired set by Whimsical Designs ~ With Love.

Enjoy your day! Hubby and I are going to run errands...might stop to look at some jewelry for Valentines. Hope you have a special day with your loved one!

Be sure to come back tomorrow! The winner from the Cupid Strikes Again Blog Hop will be announced. Will it be you?!?!

Stay Creative,

Georgiana
