Hello Everyone,
Welcome to all my new crafty friends!

The new challenge at Miss Kate Cuttables starts today, and remember there is a free file every day! Hopefully you will be able to join us during the next two weeks with your own creation.

This Week's Challenge...

~ Anything Goes ~

Here is my Design Team project...
I made a little treat box since my son just got a new puppy not that long ago. I found the box at the Silhouette Design Store.

I cut the dog by Miss Kate Cuttables on my Cameo. He is part of the Dog Set file.

The sentiment is by Jaded Blossom ~ Dog-Gone Awesome stamp set.

A blue bow, Trendy Twine, and a brown button hold the large box closed.

Other Challenges:
Allsorts ~ Cats and/or Dogs
Hiding in My Craft Room ~ Freestyle
Just Us Girls ~ New
My Time to Craft ~ Something New
Come and Get It ~ Something New

How About Cuddling?

Happy Sunday Everyone!

Welcome back to Carson's Creations and thanks so much for stopping by. It's quite frosty outside, so why not browse a few blogs and see what every one is creating...find some inspiration, leave a little love, and then get busy making your own happiness. Sounds like a plan to me!

I sure do like watercolors and creating backgrounds has become a fun favorite. I used a water brush pen and a few shades of pink from Artist's Loft (got mine at Michaels with a 50% off coupon). I received  some Gansai Tambi paints for Christmas, but I haven't used them yet (maybe today's project). The MFT Snow Drifts Cover-Up and Stitched Rectangle Frame were cut on my Cuttlebug. 

I used my Cameo to cut this polar bear by Jamie Cripps that I found at the Silhouette Design Store. There were few pieces and it was easy to layer and adhere.

The sentiment is by MFT ~ Let's Get Cozy stamp set. The title of the set sounds perfect for this cold weather. Don't you want to cuddle with this over-sized bear to stay warm?!?!

Challenges:

Happy Little Stampers ~ Watercolor

In the Pink ~ Anything Goes

Little Scrap Pieces ~ Show It Off Saturday

PDE Linky Party ~ Anything Goes

Diagonal Cover-up for your Birthday

Hello Everyone!

It sure is getting cold outside (Brrrr!), so I have no plans to go anywhere if I don't have too. I want to stay in the house, stay warm, and use all my new crafting goodies. My hubby asked me today if I was happy with all my goodies and I told him yes. Now he is watching football and I get time to craft! That is definitely happiness for both of us!

I was excited to get this MFT diagonal cover-up for Christmas (Of course, I picked out the stamps and dies I wanted). I have seen it used a few different ways, so I decided to stick with a clean and simple look. First, I cut the cover-up in white with my Cuttlebug and then I cut it again in purple.

I cut a MFT Scribble Rose and Overlay and then found some greenery on my table. The birthday sentiment is by Jaded Blossom ~ Supersized Birthday Greetings.

I added Wink of Stella to the purple rose for a bit of sparkle.

Challenges:

Alphabet Challenge ~ V is for Violet

Seize the Birthday ~ Birthday

Jo's Scrap Shack ~ Anything Goes

 Hope you have a great night! Until next time...

Stay Creative,

Ooh La La ~ Paper Play Sketches 29

Hello Everyone!

Happy Wednesday, otherwise known as...Hump Day. Students head back today and I am ready to see them! Looking forward to hearing all about their vacations, especially if they traveled. What a great life experience seeing new places and being able to share with others.

We have a new challenge starting at Paper Play Sketches. You know my thoughts...so many options and/or if you lost your mojo it helps you get started again. Why not give it a try! 

This Week's Challenge...

Remember...sketches can be rotated 90 or 180 degrees. 

Here is my Design Team project...

I was in a pink mood and having a ooh la la moment. Not sure if that is a romantic ooh la la or a look at me feeling. Whichever...loving the MFT flamingo.

The sentiment is by Jaded Blossom ~ Simple Saying 3 stamp set.

The plaid pattern paper is by Lawn Fawn ~ Merry & Bright stack. The inside of the card coordinates with the cover.

Other Challenges:
Crafty Hazelnut ~ Pattern Paper
Love to Craft ~ Anything Goes
DL.Art ~ Anything Goes
Connie Can Crop ~ Anything Goes
PDE Linky Party ~ Anything Goes

Now, I hope you will  join us this week for the Paper Play Sketches challenge. Be sure to visit the other Design Team members to see how they interpreted the sketch.

Stay Creative,

January Sketch at Die Cuttin' Divas

Hello Crafty Friends!

Happy Tuesday! I head back to school today for a Teacher Workday and the students return tomorrow. Hopefully everyone is well rested and ready to learn. This part of the year can get hectic with state testing not too far away.

Today I am also sharing the new challenge at Die Cuttin' Divas...first one for 2017.

This Week's Challenge...

~ January Sketch ~

Here is my Design Team project...

I never have any Get Well cards, so I am off to a great start for 2017. I hope no one gets sick, but I know flu season is right around the corner.

I used a Miss Kate Cuttables file ~ Sorry You're Sick for the tissue box. The sentiment is by Scrappy Moms Stamps ~ More Mini Messages set. 

 

Hope you will join us at Die Cuttin' Divas this week for our "January Sketch" challenge. The other design team members did an amazing job interpreting the sketch.

Stay Creative,

Georgiana

2017 Birthday Wishes

Hello Everyone!

Thanks for stopping by at Carson's Creations! I appreciate all my crafty friends and the kind words that are shared. 

Only 364 more days of 2017. I am not going to count the days down, but I am going to make sure I send LOTS of birthday wishes this year.  My 2017 word is going to be determination. I am determined to make all my DT projects, participate in challenges, learn how to color stamped images (and make sure it doesn't look like my students colored it).

I used the following sketch from Try' Stampin' on Tuesday.

This stamped sentiment is by My Craft Spot. It is part of the Chalkboard Sentiments set. I used my MISTI to stamp the words and then I used a chalk pencil to add a bit of color to the bold letters. I cut out gold foam glitter stars with my Cuttlebug.

The inside coordinates with the cover.

Thanks for stopping by! Wishing you all the best in 2017!

Stay Creative,

Georgiana
