SOUS Die Cut Challenge - In The Water

     Welcome back again to my blog. Here we have our next Die Cut Challenge over at SOUS and it is In The Water. You need to do something in water. Try to think out of the box for this one. I did an A2 size card with a cute little mermaid in the ocean. I used the cartridge Life is a Beach from Cricut and cut her out at 4". I cut the palm tree from the same cartridge at 3". I just tore the paper for the sand/beach area. The water paper is from a Paper Studio paper pack. I just used some stickles to outline the waves in the paper.

Here are the details:

• Cricut cart: Life is a Beach
• Cardstock: Bazzill
• Pattern paper: Paper Studio
• Stickles: Gold, Fruit Punch, Waterfall
• Ink: Cat's Eye-Dark Brown
• Bling: I-rock
• Adhesive: Scotch ATG, Zig 2 way glue

Christmas card

Here is my Christmas card for 2013. I wanted something very simple this year as I will be leaving soon to spend sometime in California with my parents for Christmas.

St. Paddie's Day Card

Well, here I am again...Im trying so hard to be on here more. I figure if I make cards and things that I will have to post them on here therefore making me post here more often!

So here is my submission to Fantabulous Cricut. The challenge was to make something with a shamrock or the color green. I chose to use both. Here is the recipe of items I used:

Cardstock: Bazzill

Cricut cartridges: Rock Princess, Paper Doll Dressup, Imagine-Hopstotch

Stickles: Emerald, Starlight, Xmas Red, Golden Rod

Punch: MS Loop

Bling: I-rock

Ribbon: Ofray

Stamp: My Pink Stamper-Happiest Moments

Pen:

Adhesive: ATG-3M, Zig 2-way Glue Pen

I used one of the girls from Rock Princess and cut her at 4". I then cut the shamrock from Bazzill Bling at 4.25". I printed one of the papers from Hopstotch for the background of the card.

This was a fun card to put together. It took a lot of work, but I truly had a blast. I hope you enjoy it.
