Happy Birthday card .

Happy Monday everyone !!! 

Today we start a new challenge at

BBTB2 .

The theme this week is Cricut Letters or phrase .

Since tomorrow is my sister Angies birthday , 

I thought it would be perfect to create a card with

a birthday sentiment . I use the Fancy Frames

and Create A Critter 2  cartridges for my sentiment . 

Here is a close up of the phrase " Happy Birthday " welded to the frame . I added pink and gold embossing , to add a little more texture. 

Here is the inside of it . 

It is great for a gift card and a handwritten sentiment . 

I hope you are able to join us for this fun challenge , make sure to visit my design team sisters for wonderful inspiration.

Happy Monday everyone !!! 
Warning: lots of photos and info
(exciting info and cute photos) !

Today I am happy to share two projects with you . 

One of these is for BBTB2 , 

it is the start of a new challenge and 

our theme this week is St. Patrick's Day ! 

The second is a card I made for
Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog 
and
Craftin ' Desert Divas! 

When I first began to blog , I only had my Cricut ( which I love ) .
I was hoping to find a Cricut based community to share my love of Cricut with .
I found it in Fantabulous Cricut and in
 Bitten by the Bug 2 and Exploring Cricut blogs.
I was hooked on these , I would try to create something every week following the themes .

 I have used my Cricut in the past year more times than I would have imagined !!! 

I am truly happy and grateful to have found these blogs !!
I was very honored when I was invited to be a guest designer on FCCB !! 

This week the challenge is to follow a sketch. I am not too good with sketches , but hey practice makes perfect !! At CDD we are in our second week of our 

" Birthday Linky Party " !!

I decided to combine the sketch and the birthday theme to create my birthday card !

Happy Monday !

Can you believe Christmas is next week ?
I have a couple more things to do.........
And time is flying by !!!
I am not sure if the days are shorter , or whats going on !!!

For this week at BBTB2 we are asking that you create a tag , using any Cricut cartridge .
  With the holidays coming up,
we felt this would be a great challenge !


At Craftin Desert Divas , we are continuing our Christmas Linky party !
Make sure to join us , there are some wonderful prizes available .

I would also like to take a moment and thank you so much for joining us on our Holly Jolly Christmas hop ! Each and every comment meant the world to me , and I truly appreciate you taking the time to comment ,and to those that became new followers ,
 a huge welcome and I can't thank you enough !


Here is the project I created ,  I made tags to represent my three boys .
As you can tell , I love to do that !
It is my way of personalizing things I create .

The gingerbread boy represents my oldest son Matias ,
 I have always called him my little gingerbread .
Sweet like a cookie !

The penguin is my baby Anthony . Small yet full of personality ! 

The snowman is for my son David . 

He loves the snow and playing in it , so I call him my little snowman ! 

Happy Halloween !

 

 

 

 

Happy Halloween everyone !!

Stopping in today to wish everyone a happy and safe Halloween !!!!

I made a couple of these treat bags , I couldn't decided which one I wanted , so I made 3 different types , fun and easy . I also added the finishing touches to my spooky circus , adding some spooky critters to it ! I also wanted to share the happy Halloween banner I made to go under my spooky village ! Hope you have a wonderful and safe day !
