Carrots Birthday


Good Morning! I am trying to build up my collection of birthday cards. I looked at my stash of stamps to find some inspiration. The sentiment from Jaded Blossom's Forest Friends sounded fun to me, so I picked some carrots from SVG Cutting Files and this card was born.  (or grew?)

Sweet Tweet For You

Hello Everyone! I am sharing my post over at Jaded Blossom. This cute little bird contains some "sweet tweets". The box is just the right size for a small gift or candy treat.  I tied a stack of chocolates together and attached a tag from one of the Jaded Blossom Mini Tag Dies.

I Married Mr. Incredible


I made this card for my husband's birthday last week. Here is the background story.  Our daughters love to get autographs from the characters at Disneyland. We were at the park waiting for our kids to get their books signed. This little boy walked up to my husband and said, "Are you Mr. Incredible?"  So funny! I will never let hubby forget that day!

The Cricut Explore was used to cut.. so impressed with the Explore machine. The Explore even cut the TINY blue eyes. (they were so small, no mortal could pick them up and glue them on. so I just used a marker.)

SVG Cutting Files :: Mustache Collection

Hello!  Starting the week off with a sneak peek of new designs from SVG Cutting Files.  This collection is all about the mustaches.  These projects would be great for gifts for the men in your life.  

For all my projects today, I used the mustache paper collection from Me and My Big Ideas. First up is the Mustache Gable Box. Just slip the sides of the box over the mustache handle, and the box will un-lock. The file includes mats for all sides of the box, but I just used the front and back mats.


Next we have a favor box, Mustache Top Lock Box, with an interlocking mustache closure.



And lastly we have a Mustache Card. The front of the card is closed by an interlocking mustache. 


This is what the card looks like open.


And if you are a Jaded Blossom fan like me,  you might have some mustache themed sentiment stamps that would go perfectly with these files. I found this sentiment on the Love Mustaches from Jaded Blossom.



These files will be at the store for purchase on Friday!

Thanks for stopping by today. I have song "Mustache" by Sparks rattling around in my head.!

Jaded Blossom April Release Day 4 :: Say Cheese

Good Morning! Welcome to Jaded Blossom's April Release Day 4. Today we have "Olive You" stamps. For my first project, I used the "say cheese" sentiment on the Jaded Blossom Flag Die. I think it really set the mood for this cute mouse and her cheese. I love her expression.. she loves her cheese! 



The candy inside the cheese box is decorated Simple Sayings Candy, another new stamp set for April.

Jaded Blossom Release Day 1 HERE

Hello Crafty Friends! Today I get to post over at Digi My World.  My daughter helps with Sunday School, so I thought I would make some Easter Treats for her to share.  I colored the Short Eared Bunny x 18 while I watched a movie with my family.  (We watched The Hunger Games.. I don't get the movies often. ha ha)  Digi My World does offer a print and cut too, if you did not have the time to color up your rabbits.  The cross on the egg was added with a Spring Bingo Stamps from Jaded Blossom.

Hello Everyone! I am excited to start the week off with the Jaded Blossom's April Release Previews.  Today we are showcasing Wine-O'Clock, Happy Hour Candies, and the Wine Tag Die. 

I created a tag for a wine bottle. The sentiment from Wine-O'Clock is stamped on one of the Candy Wrap Dies. I have so many friends that "enjoy a serving of fruit", it will be tough for me to decided who will receive this wine bottle.
