MPS Color Challenge

Blogger was not working for me last night. So I posted my entry on my regular website. For this challenge we were supposed to use the colors green pink & black. So here is my 'so sweet watermelon.'


I used Doodlecharms for the watermelon and welded it into a shape card using my Gypsy. Then I added some black doodling, some stamps for the seeds and sentiment and a little bow. Enjoy!

Mickey Icon Birthday Card

This card was fun. I love Disney and this added a subtle Disney touch.


I used Gypsy Wanderings for the Happy Birthday and Plantin Schoolbook and Disney font for the scalloped Mickey border. I used ribbon from my collection as well as a prima flower and a couple of rhinestones. Have a great day!

Elmo 1st Birthday Shape Card

One of my niece's just turned one this week. This is the card I made for her birthday! Happy 1st birthday!



I used my Gypsy to weld the card together and I used the Sesame Street Font cartridge for the image. Simple but fun, especially for the little ones who love Sesame Street.

Happy Birthday Sweetie!

Today is my sweetheart's birthday, so I thought I would post his favorite of my newest batch of birthday cards.


This is simple and yet kind of elegant. The paper is coordinations. The ribbon is from my stash. I cut the lace scallop edge card and Happy Birthday from the Calligraphy Collection cricut cartridge and used my Gypsy as well. Hope you like it.

Butterfly Kisses

Well it has been a wonderful Easter weekend with family, Easter celebrations, General Conference and SNOW. Yes, snow... I need a little springtime warmth at the moment, so it is time to share my butterfly shape card. This was a birthday card for my niece that just turned 4.


This butterfly is from the New Arrival cricut cartridge. She is cut in blackout so I could stamp her cute face with my Peachy Keen Stamps (I used PK-495). A happy birthday stamp, some outline doodling, rosey cheeks, a little bling and voila.

Happy Easter!

This is a simple tri fold card that I made my parents for Easter.

This is the outside of the tri-fold

You lift the flap and this is what you see and then I left the inside empty so we can all add a little Easter message.
The paper is coordinations, the Cricut cartridges used are Stamped (Happy/tag), Designer's Calendar (Easter), George (rectangles), Doodlecharms (egg), and Mickey Mouse font (MM icon). The dotted scallop edge is a fiskars edge punch. I hope you all have an amazing Easter.

Have an UDDER-ly marvelous April Fools

I thought I would post the cow shape card I made for my sister-in-law's birthday. She LOVES COWS!!! Especially the black and white ones. We found her some cute (in our opinion) cow slippers for her birthday so a cow card to go with it was tres neccessaire!


This card was made using my Gypsy and my Cricut. I used the Animal Kingdom Cricut Cartridge - for the cow, and Pooh and Friends - for the cute present. Last of all I added a little outlining, some black brads for the eyes and a prima flower with a rhinestone center.
