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!
 
I saw this pink birthday challenge and thought how "PURRFECT".


Materials:
ALL papers are from scrap box
Spellbinders ~ Picot Edge Circles
Create a Critter Cricut cartridge ~ cat 2", pillow 1", and title 3/4" (p. 38)
Birthday Bash Cricut cartridge ~ tag (p. 70) cut at 1"
pink ribbon (recycled from a prize)
pink gems
My Pink Stamper ~Itty Bitty-licious stamp
pink craft thread
black ink

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
 
Challenges:
  Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend.
 
Stay Creative,
Georgiana

Ahoy Matey

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.

My Exploring Cricut project...
Materials:
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"
orange crinkle ribbon
gold gems
blue, brown, and black card stock
Me&My Big Ideas paper ~ Bonnie Bell Snails

Challenges:
Little Scrap Pieces ~ Use Blue

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

Stay Creative,
