Everyday Cricut Project - Dancing Leprechaun

Hi crafty friends. Sorry things have been SO quiet on here this week. Life has just been good and busy and it hasn't left a whole lot of time for crafting. The little I have got done is for the upcoming PKS Stamp of the Month release. You will NOT want to miss that so make sure you are checking in on the sneaks the 2nd, 3rd and 4th of April.

Today I'm sharing my St. Patty's Day card that I made over at Everyday Cricut a couple of weeks ago. I figured I better get it posted over her before March is over ;).

This is a pretty simple shape card that I made in my Gypsy using the Lacey Labels Cricut Lite cartridge and the Simply Charmed cartridge.


I really LOVE the leprechauns on the Simply Charmed cartridge. They are just too sweet. I stamped his face with a stamp from the February 2012 Stamp of the Month set by Peachy Keen Stamps and those absolutely PERFECT St Patty's Day sentiments are from My Creative Time's I Believe in Leprechauns stamp set.


I added lots of stitching and doodling with my Sakura Gellyroll pen and that darling little leprechaun is on an Action Wobble, so he really is doing a little jig. If you haven't seen an Action Wobble in motion before I have a really quick 20 second video that you can watch below.



Thanks for taking a look at my project. I hope your day is TERRIFIC!!!! Hugs- Glora

Wobble Wednesday Challenge #3

Hello crafting friends. Today it is my turn to host the Wobble Wednesday Challenge. For this challenge we are adding an Action Wobble to any sort of a bunny. You can use stamps, die cuts, SVG's, Cricut cuts, whatever. I hope you will come on over and join in the fun HERE.


Here is my simple and fun card. I love this little wobbling bunny. This adorable bunny is a die by Peachy Keen Stamps and CottageCutz. It is called Easter Basket Bunny. She comes with two face choices and adding the eggs and basket is totally optional. I cut the bunny out in kraft cardstock and used a Versarmarker to accent her. I also added a little chalk and a Gellyroll for accents. The basket and paws were cut in pink and the eggs in white (I just inked them up and decorated them with my Gellyroll). This awesome sentiment is from Emma's Happy Hunting stamp set. It seemed the perfect fit for this cute little bunny and basket of eggs.

Well, I hope you will join in the fun of this challenge! Have a terrific day! Hugs- Glora

Happy Birthday Mouse!

Just a quick project to share with you this morning. I made this card for my SIL's birthday. 


I used the cute little mouse from the Peachy Keen Stamps - Cottage Cutz Cupid Mouse. I just didn't attach the wings or use the bow and arrow. I used a paper punch for the balloon. For the balloon string I used the coordinating stamp that is supposed to be the string on the bow and curved it like a balloon string. The cute little hat on the mouse is from the Karaoke Birthday stamp set by PKS and the Happy Birthday sentiment comes from the February 2012 SOTM set by PKS.

I also got a chance to meet up with Amy from Scrapping Mommy this weekend while she was in town. She is a total creative genius and super sweet.  We are on the My Creative Time and Peachy Keen Stamps design teams together. I had so much fun talking I stayed almost an hour longer than I had planned. It was great.

Have a terrific day! Hugs- Glora

Peachy Keen Challenge #10 - Just Cards: Faux Stitching

Hi Peachy Fans and welcome to another fun Peachy Keen Challenge! This time we are doing CARDS ONLY and we are supposed to use faux stitching on our cards.

I've had this ADORABLE Easter Bunny set for a bit now and I'm JUST getting around to using these little darlings. I'm totally in love with them! This set is called Bunny Dolls.


That beautiful paper is from the new Echo Parks paper pad This & That 6x6 paper pad. The darling bunny and sentiment are both from the Bunny Dolls stamp set and the white curvy part is a piece of My Creative Time's XL Label Die

I hope you will join in the Peachy fun and get your favorite faux stitching pen out and ready to go! Make sure to check out the Peachy Keen Challenge Blog and the faux stitching inspiration waiting for you! Hugs- Glora

MCT My Favorite Stamp of the Month - GAME NIGHT!

Hello My Creative Time fans. Today I have my project for Emma's My Favorite Stamp of the Month. The Favorite Stamp of the Month this month is Game Night. Do you like Bingo, Dominoes, Bunco, etc? Then this set is for you! Plus for the next couple of weeks Emma has this stamp set on sale in her store! And if you already have this set and want to show people how fun it can be, you can link up your project over on My Creative Time!

Here is my clean and simple little BINGO invite. This would be super easy to mass produce for a big ol' Bingo party.


I used Game Night for everything except for the bigger BINGO which is from the Anyday Bingo and Crossword stamp set. I added some rhinestone 'chips' to the bingo game boards, a little bit of twine, some rounded corners and white faux stitching with my Gellyroll. Easy Peasy!

Make sure to see what Emma and the other design team members did with this set on Emma's blog and don't forget to join in the linky party! Have a super day! Hugs- Glora

Have a Fabulous St Patty's Day!!!!

***If you are looking for the My Creative Time Blog Hop click HERE or scroll down. Also remember that Emma has given me 4 stamp sets to give away because I was guest designing at Everyday Cricut this week. You can enter the giveaways HERE, HERE and HERE. You will have through Sunday night to comment on all of these giveaways!***

I just LOVE a beautiful rainbow. I especially love it when I see a double rainbow, have you ever seen those? They are so pretty and have you noticed that the rainbow underneath has the colors in reverse order (violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, red)? I just LOVE them! Anyway, I just wanted to share a quick card and wish you all a very happy St. Patrick's Day.


For this card I used the February 2012 Stamp of the Month stamp set by Peachy Keen Stamps and the darling sentiments are from My Creative Time's Just a Little Note to Say stamp set. I colored the rainbow with Copics and then added lots of Crystal Stickles. I love how sparkly it is. I inked up the edges of the clouds with blue ink and used some clear sparkle paint on them and then added some Stickles on their noses. I added a few strands of colorful twine and some stitching with my gel pen and I was done.

Have a terrific St. Patty's Day and don't forget to wear some GREEN!!!! Hugs- Glora
