My Project:

For this challenge I decided to just use a card base

from Art Philosophy - LOVE the flowers it cuts

out at the bottom!

I had some super cute flower stickers in my stash

that were a perfect match :)

The cardstock is from American Crafts

and the paper I used to fill in the empty space of the flowers

was just in my scrap stash.

The sentiment is from Studio G.

Super simple and super cute!

BBTB2 - Grillin' N Chillin'

Happy Monday!!!

Hope everyone enjoyed celebrating Father's Day yesterday!!!

Today over at BBTB2 we have a new challenge

starting all about FOOD!!!

It is National Onion Ring Day, so in honor

of that we want to see projects featuring food.

There are so many options to choose from

with all the Cricut images dedicated to this wonderful subject,

it shouldn't be too hard to do :)

I pulled out the From My Kitchen cartridge and

decided to make a BBQ themed card.

I actually gave this to my dad yesterday for Father's Day,

along with a fun BBQ tool set.

He loves to BBQ in the summer and

steak is probably his favorite food to throw out there!

I used paper from My Mind's Eye and

Enamel Dots from Recollections.

The sentiment comes from CardzTV's "Summer Fun"

Stamp Set.

I hope you will join us for this fun challenge!

My paper is from DCWV Hippie Chic paper pad.

I did cut a border from Elegant Edges just to add a little more to the bottom.

The sentiment is from CardzTV's "More Critter Captions".

I used some orange Enamel Dots for embellishment.

Decorate To Celebrate #102

Happy Wednesday!

It's time for another Anything Goes challenge over at

Decorate To Celebrate!

I am continuing with my Home Decor for the 4th of July.

Here is a "Freedom" Banner I created:

I used paper from The Paper Studio's All Seasons III and glitter packs.

All my cuts come from Art Philosophy.

I used Craft Cardstock for the base banner cuts.

I alternated stars and stripes paper for the star shadow.

Here is a close up of one of the letters.

I did use foam tape to pop up the shadow star,

the white star, and the letter

so that there is more of a 3D effect.

Unfortunately the pic doesn't do the greatest job

of showcasing the project.

I hope that you will join us over at

Decorate To Celebrate!

BBTB2 - Signs for the Times!

Happy Monday!

Today over at BBTB2 we have a new challenge starting -

Signs for the Times!

Use a sign or a banner on your projects.

I decided to use the cute birds from Birthday Bash

holding a "Surprise" banner.

I thought this would make a super cute invitation

for a surprise Birthday Party.

The b/g paper is from American Crafts.

The stamp is from CTMH and the jewel dots

are from Hobby Lobby.

Super Simple!

I hope you will join us over at BBTB2 for this challenge!

BBTB2 - Wedding Celebrations!

Happy Monday!!!

AND Happy JUNE!!!

Summer is here!

Oh Boy!

Today over at BBTB2 we are celebrating the Month of Weddings!

We want to see wedding/anniversary projects!

I kept mine super simple, by making a Gift Card Holder.

Sometimes, I just LOVE paper so much,

that it is what I want the focal point of the card to be.

As in this case :)

I used my Envelope Punch Board from We R Memory Keepers

to punch out the gift card sized holder.

I used Sweethearts for the Chartreuse tag.

The sentiment is from CardzTV "Happy Days"

and the glitter gems are from Hobby Lobby.

For the back I cut the rings from Sweethearts.

And it fits the gift card perfectly!

Like I said, super simple!!!

I hope that you will join us over at BBTB2 this week!
