Hi everyone!!
This week a new Tacky Tuesday Challenge was posted and I just had to participate! I love Create a Critter and I have yet to use the cute cow!!
Plus it gave me another excuse to use my, My Pink Stamper stamp sets.


This weeks challenge we are using a cow cut from any cart,
you will also need to use either the word "moo" or the word "udder"
somewhere in the sentiment on you card or layout.

Here is what I came up with.

I cut my cow out at 4 and my clouds at 3/4, 1 and 1 1/2 inches from Create a Critter Cartridge. I used SU! crumb cake as my base and glorious green for my grass and hand cut it. Doodles with my white gel pen and SU! bashful blue and bordering blue, I also sponged my clouds with bashful blue. I used my chalks to add some pretty in pink to the cheeks and ears of the cow and smiling cloud. The sentiment is from My Pink Stamper, Punnylicious Stamp Set (LOVE IT!!).
Thanks for looking and head on over to Tacky Tuesday's Facebook Page to join in on the fun!
Yesterday was my Dad's Birthday and I made him this sign for his office because he keeps saying that he wants a "Man Cave" sign for it.

What I used:

I bought the wood sign from JoAnn Fabrics for $5, normally $9 but I used the 40% off coupon. The I used the Pooh font cartridge and my Cricut markers in Brown, this was my first time using them. I used the markers and then cut the letters at 2in with the shadow in Camo paper then adhered to the  sign with Tombow Multi Adhesive. I got the Marine emblem at Michael's about a year ago in the clearance section and I bought the gun charm at Cabela's in December. I gave it to him last night and he LOVED it! I am so glad!
Thanks for looking!
Have a wonderful day!
I made this card for my wonderful hubby. We decide to go away for the weekend to a mini-vacation to Denver, Colorado. We aren't sure what we are going to do there yet but that's the fun part right?

Here is my card:

I used Stampin Up Cardstocks- Crumb cake, old olive, pumpkin pie and Pink pirouette and Twine. The designer paper is American Crafts Everyday stack. The image and sentiment are a Unity Stamp Set. I ticket punched the corners with the Stampin Up Ticket punch and add a small stampin up brad. I embossed the umbrella and the layer my couple are on with my swiss dots cuttlebug folder and inked a few edges with Stampin Up Crumb Cake ink. I used glassy accents on her rainboots but it doesn't show in the photo.

I really like how it turned out and I hope he does too!
Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day!
I am helping put on a baby shower for one of my girlfriends who is Due at the beginning of May. She knows she is having a girl, its her first girl but second baby. She didn't want pink or purple the usual girly-girl stuff and so she decided on Navy blue, yellow, white and gray for the Nursery colors.
These are the invites I came up with and just delivered this week.
I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this Baby Steps Cartridge (Thanks for the tip Stacey!!). So many cut possibilities!! I already made a banner and my next project is a mini album :)

Here are my invites:

This is another one of the items I made inspired by the first issue of Cricut Magazine.
I made this for my Secret Sister, Alice over at Paper Therapy.
I used Wall Decor & More Cartridge- Butterfly cut at 5 1/2 and sentiment cut at 3. I used my SU! edge punch and blinged it up with my I-rock and then used my Sew-easy for the square stitching.
The Frame is from Walmart.
I just love those this turned out and I hope to make some for my own home very soon.
Thanks for looking!
Have a great day!
For the last two weeks, I have been working on my craftroom because a friend of ours has decided to remodel their kitchen and gave us all their old cabinets. My husband thought it would be a great idea to put half of them in my craftroom. I feel like this project has taken forever but I am really happy with the results and thought I would share it. Especially for those who have heard me moan & groan about it! I love you guys!

I think so far it functions much better now and I am really excited that I can display all the amazing things I receive from my crafty friends :)
I'd love to hear what you think!
Do you spot where I put my corkboard from the previous post?

Have a great day!
I have had this Corkboard sitting in my craftroom that I bought at a thrift store for 50 cents.
I had the material from last summer from a sale at JoAnn Fabrics. I just used ribbon from my stash and you know it has to be purple with Hello Kitty, my two favorites!!! :)

Disclaimer: no one was harmed while doing this project since I have lost my staple gun priviledges ;)

Thanks for looking! Have a great day
