I found this cute teddy bear cupcake file that I had picked up from Lettering Delights a while back. The set is called <i><a href="http://www.letteringdelights.com/clipart:nancys_party-10823.html" target="_blank">Nancy's Party</a></i> and it is adorable. I used the teddy bear cupcake and made a cute little shape card with my Silhouette Cameo machine.<br />

The sentiment comes from the Peachy Keen Stamps<i> January 2013 Stamp Kit of the Month</i>, The eyes came from the <i>Everyday Character Faces 1.75"</i> and the nose and mouth came from the <i>Everyday Character Face Parts </i>(all of which are no longer available for purchase). However, there are some very cute <i><a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/peachy-polymer-stamps/pk-170-teddy-bear-assortment/" target="_blank">Teddy Bear Assortment Face Stamps</a></i> that are still available (I have them and love them, they were just too small for my project). <a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/peachy-polymer-stamps/pk-170-teddy-bear-assortment/" target="_blank">HERE</a> is a link to the cute teddy bear faces if you are interested. </div>

I have continued crafting as time allows but just haven't made the time to post them on my blog. Maybe I will be better at posting soon, but for now, I wanted to make sure that I shared a card that I made for a VERY special lady. Kathy the owner and artist of Peachy Keen Stamps is having a birthday. She is such an amazing and sweet lady and I just couldn't let the day pass without letting her know how much I love and appreciate her! Happiest of birthdays Kathy!!!!<br />

Kathy's face stamps just make me smile. She has such an awesome variety of expressions and looks. This darling face on this little girl is from the <i><a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/shop/stamps/pk-1410-christmas-in-july-face-assortment/" target="_blank">Christmas in July Face Assortment</a></i>. The Happy Birthday sentiment is also by Peachy Keen Stamps and is from the <i><a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/shop/faceless-friends/pk-123-darren-and-laura-lee/" target="_blank">Darren and Laura Lee</a></i> stamp set. The cute stitched border comes from My Creative Time's die called <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Stitched-Rectangular-Frame-Dies-More-MCT-D91.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Stitched Rectangular Frame Dies</a> and More</i>.

It has been a LONG time since I have posted on my blog. That doesn't mean I haven't been crafting, because I have. Things have just gotten busy around here. I didn't realize that having two children in school and to help with homework would take that much longer but it does. I wouldn't change it for the world though.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I made this card for my niece's birthday. She loves penguins and she loves ice cream so it seemed like the perfect combination for a birthday card.<br />

Today I am guest designing at <a href="http://prettypaperprettyribbons.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons</a>. I love Lisa's cut files and I was so excited when they said I could guest design. I made a few projects to share with you today.<br />
<br />
A special little boy just turned 2 so I thought this fun shape card would be cute for him:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj3jJw4W2qLO_GHqN5qOH1gp3pu4Ek9FVCtXBacEpyA7AcscqUT0hbwEn38Q_WHy0qy6MpskEObq1MQFTsHT4mbGeBzKYgeSgGi7dVNdqEBTdMa2IOPkHRjvfLX4iZyvbuB6BGdh0V_vFJ/s1600/Watermark+of+Birthday+Boy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj3jJw4W2qLO_GHqN5qOH1gp3pu4Ek9FVCtXBacEpyA7AcscqUT0hbwEn38Q_WHy0qy6MpskEObq1MQFTsHT4mbGeBzKYgeSgGi7dVNdqEBTdMa2IOPkHRjvfLX4iZyvbuB6BGdh0V_vFJ/s1600/Watermark+of+Birthday+Boy.jpg" height="640" width="364" /></a></div>
<br />
This cute little boy and cake come from the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons file called <i><a href="http://www.prettypapergraphics.com/item_358/Make-a-Wish-Cutting-Files.htm" target="_blank">Make a Wish Cutting File</a></i>. Isn't he darling? I stamped his face with a Peachy Keen Face stamp called <i><a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/shop/faces/pk-1320-in-the-garden-face-assortment/" target="_blank">PK-1320 In the Garden Face Assortment</a></i>. I also used a couple of My Creative Time stamp sets. The #2 is from<i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Follow-Your-Dreams-Stamp-Set-MCT-017.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank"> Follow Your Dreams</a></i> and the Birthday Boy sentiment is from <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Celebrate-Good-Times-Stamp-Set-MCT-072.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Celebrate Good Times</a></i>. I did some faux stitching with my Sakura Gelly Roll pen and added some Glossy Accents to the eyes.<br />
<br />
Next up is a fun beach ball shape card for my niece's birthday next month. She loves swimming so I thought this would be the perfect summer birthday card.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_sH8KKRqAIpZ13_H3_AD-meLM6KoORbQqOOiTCrkbEtXirE5jsaIoyWmMD6YILW1Yj9z4IMZ08NC1Tc9tB9apvoKbhqgm69es8KY8zlBkTq3QxfCxd56YdaePjoHSieFbxsPPODvIfdi_/s1600/Watermark+of+Summer+Birthday+Girl.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_sH8KKRqAIpZ13_H3_AD-meLM6KoORbQqOOiTCrkbEtXirE5jsaIoyWmMD6YILW1Yj9z4IMZ08NC1Tc9tB9apvoKbhqgm69es8KY8zlBkTq3QxfCxd56YdaePjoHSieFbxsPPODvIfdi_/s1600/Watermark+of+Summer+Birthday+Girl.jpg" height="393" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
The beach ball shape card and girl both come from the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons file called <i><a href="http://www.prettypapergraphics.com/item_22/Little-Swimmers-Cutting-Files.htm" target="_blank">Little Swimmers</a></i>. I stamped her face with another Peachy Keen Face stamp called <i><a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/shop/faces/pk-1200-the-moodies-face-assortment/" target="_blank">PK-1200 The Moodies</a></i>. I also added a sentiment from Craftin' Desert Divas. It is from the <i><a href="http://www.craftindesertdivasshop.com/item_14/Simply-Said.htm" target="_blank">Simply Said</a></i> stamp set. I did more faux stitching and added Glossy Accents to the eyes.<br />
<br />
And my last project is a stick puppet for my girls. They LOVE it and I'm really hoping that Lisa comes out with some more princess costumes for these cute girl cuts.<br />

<br />
<br />
<div>
I made a front side and a back side for her so she would be cute as they played with her coming or going. It was really pretty simple to do. All I had to do was rearrange the layers and voila. </div>

It is also a shaker card. It was a lot of fun to FINALLY make a shaker. I also learned A LOT about making them from trial and error :). It was loved by my husband and my children too.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This card was made with only My Creative Time products. The circle shape is the largest of the circles from the new <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Bunch-of-Fun-Circle-Dies-MCT-D76.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Bunch of Fun Circle Dies</a></i>. I used the three smallest circles to make my Mickey icon (I cut the bigger circle and then I cut each ear). Since there is stitching on the negative it gives a fun effect to my Mickey icon (the stitching does overlap just slightly but I love it). I filled the shaker up with tiny little micro-beads I've had on hand forever. The sentiment is from <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/searchquick-submit.sc?keywords=lookin" target="_blank">Here's Lookin at You</a></i>. Since it was for my husband and with a masculine theme I'm entering it into the current <a href="http://www.creativetimeforme.com/2014/06/designer-challenge-masculine-theme.html" target="_blank">My Creative Time challenge</a>.<br />
<br />
I hope you have a terrific day. Hugs- Glora<br />

Isn't that sentiment from Destination Fun perfect for these? I did a little masking so I could put the sentiment on the 3 lines. I like how it turned out.<br />

She is in the Mandarin Chinese immersion program at her school and loves Mulan. I thought it would be fun to do a Mulan inspired birthday card for her. I was just trying to figure out the design of my card when the new <a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/forums/topic/peachy-keen-challenge-14-09-sketch-challenge/" target="_blank">Peachy Keen Stamps sketch challenge</a> came up. It made it a breeze to put together with the sketch as inspiration.
<br />
<br />
Below is the sketch (and there is still a ton of time to join in the challenge so you should join in too). You can find the details <a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/forums/topic/peachy-keen-challenge-14-09-sketch-challenge/" target="_blank">HERE</a>.<br />

It is for my parent's 55th wedding anniversary. I feel very blessed to celebrating this day with them. We almost lost my dad about a year and a half ago and I'm treasuring every moment we have with him.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My love of all things Disney came from many early childhood memories with my family. We are all kind of Disney nuts. Anyway, when Emma came out with her Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves last month I knew that the little flower circles would make a cute Mickey icon. What do you think? </div>
<div>

Emma's products made this tag SO easy and I think it turned out really cute too. Don't you love how that stitching around the circle makes a little Mickey head? This tag is going to be tied onto some new luggage that my parents need for their anniversary trip to Disneyland.</div>
<div>

Here is the backside of the tag (the perfect spot to add a gift card for their trip too):</div>

I colored these real quick with my Spectrum Noir markers. I'm having fun experimenting with them a little here and there! I hope you have a terrific rest of your weekend. Hugs- Glora<br />

I used this cute girl graduate from a Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons, <i><a href="http://www.prettypapergraphics.com/item_277/Graduates-Cutting-Files.htm" target="_blank">Graduates Cutting Files</a></i> svg set and since it is girly and for a girl I'm entering it into their <a href="http://prettypaperprettyribbons.blogspot.com/p/pppr-monthy-challenge.html" target="_blank">current challenge</a> too. I used the print feature of the Silhouette for my card and I stamped her face with a Peachy Keen face stamp from the <i><a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/shop/faces/pk-570-basic-paper-doll-face-assortment/" target="_blank">Basic Paper Doll Faces</a></i> stamp assortment.

You may be wondering where the Peachy Keen Stamps are. Well they are the sentiment. The 'Thank' comes from <i><a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/shop/phrases-and-sentiments/pk-160-thank-you-%E2%80%93-big/" target="_blank">Thank You - Big</a></i> and the 'YOU' I stamped using letters from <i><a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/shop/phrases-and-sentiments/pk-156-lucy%E2%80%99s-abc%E2%80%99s-and-123%E2%80%B2s-solids/" target="_blank"> Lucy's ABC's and 123's SOLIDS</a></i>. The basic card design comes from a <a href="http://www.letteringdelights.com/" target="_blank">Lettering Delights</a> set called <i>Merry Month of May</i>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I have a simple little note card that I made and wanted to share. It will be perfect for one of my dear friends in France. I know she will LOVE it.<br />
<br />
I used the current photo inspiration challenge at My Creative Time as my inspiration.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I used a handful of My Creative Time products for this. I used the<i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Pretty-Spring-Wreaths-Stamp-Set-MCT-150.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank"> Pretty Spring Wreaths</a></i> for the flower wreath and colored it up with some Tim Holtz Distress Markers. A very sweet friend gave them to me quite a while ago. I have used them a few times but really need to learn how to master them. I've seen amazing things done with them. They are dual tipped and the small tip was perfect for coloring these tiny leaves and flowers. The sentiment comes from My Creative Time's <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Springtime-In-Paris-Stamp-Set-MCT-151.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Springtime in Paris</a></i>. For dies I used the <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/4x4-Journal-Die-More-MCT-D61.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">4x4 Journal Die + More</a></i> and the <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Stitched-3x4-Journal-Die-MCT-D32.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Stitched 3x4 Journal Die</a></i>. The size of my card is 4.25" x 4.25" square.</div>

I'm the first stop in the hop and I truly hope you enjoy these stamps!<br />
A complete blog line up is located for you below my post in case you get lost along the way.<br />

And now for my project. I made a couple of fun shape cards to send out when we go on vacation. Both of these cards use the new <i><a href="http://www.craftindesertdivasshop.com/category_14/Vacation.htm" target="_blank">Destination Fun</a></i> stamp set.<br />

The California svg came from a set called <i><a href="http://www.letteringdelights.com/clipart:the_united_states-11454.html" target="_blank">The United States</a> </i>by Lettering Delights and the heart and Mickey icon came from Miss Kate Cuttables <i><a href="http://www.misskatecuttables.com/products/product/mouse-memories-boy.php" target="_blank">Mouse Memories Boy</a></i>.

<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">It is a s'more shape card that I created using a freebie file from <a href="http://svgcuts.com/blog/2011/07/21/smore-free-svg-sure-cuts-a-lot/" target="_blank">SVG Cuts.</a> I did modify it slightly so that it would have a graham cracker and a little ooie gooey chocolate on the top too. That darling face is by Peachy Keen Stamps. It is one of their larger face assortments called<i> <a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/shop/faces/pk-1202-the-moodies-2-1/4%E2%80%B3/" target="_blank">PK-1202 The Moodies 2 1/4"</a></i> face assortment. And of course the cute and fun sentiment is from the new release by Craftin Desert Diva's called <i><a href="http://www.craftindesertdivasshop.com/" target="_blank">Destination Fun</a></i>. Other than that I did lots of inking with my Tim Holtz Distress Inks and some accent dots with my Gelly Roll pens. A touch of glossy accents for the eyes and I was done.<br />
<br />
Here is a closeup of the sentiment. Pretty cute huh?</span></div>

I have a card that I did for the cut challenge that <a href="http://www.simplypamscreations.com/" target="_blank">Pam</a> and I do. Pam chose the cut and it was a SVG freebie file by <a href="http://www.birdscards.com/" target="_blank">Bird's Cards</a>. She has a bunch of cute freebies and this is one of them. It is called<i> Tulip Digital Cutting File by Bird</i> and it can be found in the flower and leaves section <a href="http://www.birdscards.com/free-digital-cut-files/flowers-leaves/" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
At the time I started on this card I still needed a Mother's Day card for my mom so I thought this cut would work perfect for it. It is a long card that fits inside a business envelope. I think it was approximately 4" x 9"</div>

I made my own oval and scalloped edge in my Silhouette Designer software. Then I cut everything out and inked all of the edges up. The Mother's Day stamp is by My Creative Time's stamp set called <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/searchquick-submit.sc?keywords=rock" target="_blank">Mom, You Rock</a></i>.</div>

You may be seeing a few teacher appreciation items in the next few weeks. Our school decided to celebrate teacher appreciation week all next week. I'm trying to get a few projects done and ready to go in advance. I thought this cute sketch from <a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/forums/topic/pkc-14-07-sketch-challenge/" target="_blank">Peachy Keen Stamps</a> would work cute for a thank you card. Here is the sketch (the <a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/forums/topic/pkc-14-07-sketch-challenge/" target="_blank">challenge</a> runs through tonight if you want to join in).<br />

<br />
For this card I used a bear and apple SVG from <a href="http://www.ppbndesigns.com/" target="_blank">PPBN</a>, I don't see it on her site anymore but it was a freebie that I got from there a long time ago. However, I did find it in the Silhouette Online Store <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=45645" target="_blank">HERE</a> if you are interested in it.<br />

The sentiment on the apple is from the <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/searchquick-submit.sc?keywords=teacher" target="_blank">My Teacher Rocks!</a></i> stamp set by My Creative Time. The Thank You is from<i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Sports-Sentiments-Stamp-Set-MCT-048.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank"> Sports Sentiments</a></i> also by My Creative Time. I also used a couple of dies by My Creative Time. My rounded squares in the background are from the <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/4x4-Journal-Die-More-MCT-D61.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">4x4 Journal + More</a></i> and the cute little heart dies are from the <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Stitched-Sweethearts-XOXO-Dies-MCT-D66.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Stitched Sweethearts and XOXO Dies</a></i>. And of course that absolutely ADORABLE face on the bear is a face stamp by Peachy Keen Stamps called the <i><a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/shop/faces/pk-170-teddy-bear-assortment/" target="_blank">Teddy Bear Assortment</a></i>. Isn't it the cutest little face?<br />

I used a retired stamp set by Market Street Stamps called <i>Riding By</i>. They were designed by one of my very favorite crafter's,<a href="http://samanthacasey.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"> Samantha Casey</a>. If you don't know who she is you should definitely check her blog out <a href="http://samanthacasey.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">HERE</a>. The chevrons on the card are the only thing not from this stamp set (the <i>Riding By</i> set does have some chevrons with it I just happened to use a different set for mine). I used the <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Build-A-Chevy-Background-Stamp-Set-MCT-120.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Build a Chevy Background</a></i> by My Creative Time. Well that's it for this card, simple, easy and fun. Hugs- Glora<br />

I went through some of my college choir tour pictures and found something fun to add a pocket and envelope to.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

When we went to the Hard Rock Cafe in San Antonio Texas (just along the Riverwalk), I kept a few mementos. The little flag out of my hamburger and a little two sided advertisement. I didn't want to adhere the advertisement down because I want to be able to take it out and look at the map on details on the back too, so a pocket was the perfect solution. My friend <a href="http://www.kimberlyharrisstudio.blogspot.com/2014/04/mct-designer-challenge.html" target="_blank">Kim</a> used the <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Stitched-Bracket-Dies-MCT-D69.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Stitched Bracket Dies</a></i> as pockets on her layout and I LOVED how it looked so I totally took the idea from her (you can see her layout <a href="http://www.kimberlyharrisstudio.blogspot.com/2014/04/mct-designer-challenge.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>).<br />
<br />
I also used the following My Creative Time items: <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Just-Simply-Live-Stamp-Set-MCT-082.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Just Simply Live</a></i> for my 'SAN ANTONIO' and my other two stamped sentiment, the <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Vintage-Stitched-Label-Dies-MCT-D18.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Vintage Stitched Label Dies</a></i>, <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/searchquick-submit.sc?keywords=lowercase" target="_blank">Lowercase Fun Dies</a></i> for TEXAS, the <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Mini-Stitched-Envelope-Die-MCT-D64.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Mini Stitched Envelope Die</a></i> along with the smallest heart from the <i><a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Stitched-Sweethearts-XOXO-Dies-MCT-D66.htm?categoryId=-1" target="_blank">Stitched Sweethearts and XOXO Dies</a></i>.<br />

These cute little birdies and the wedding sentiment are from <i><a href="http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/shop/bugs-birds/pk-198-love-birds-and-sentiments/" target="_blank">PK-198 Love Birds and Sentiments</a></i> by Peachy Keen Stamps. The branch, hearts, leaves and heart sentiment are all from a retired set by Market Street Stamps called <i>Follow Your Heart</i>. I thought they combined together beautifully. I colored the birds and hearts with Spectrum Noir markers that I just got for my birthday. I'm such a novice at coloring in stamps but I figure I'm just going to experiment and have fun with it. And fun, it definitely was. Have a great day! Hugs- Glora</div>
