Red, White and Blue!!!!


Good Morning Crafty Friends!!  All of us team members of the Cardz TV Gallery are so happy that you have decided to join us for our blog hop. You should have arrived here from my great DT Sister's Jeri. Didn't you just love her project? If you didn't or you just decided to stop by and visit, then head to the start of the hop and join us. I know Mary will be giving away 3 new sets of her wonderful stamps and you will be eligible to win by leaving comments at Cardz TV.   There just may be some more blog candy along the way, so you don't want to miss a stop.
Our theme is 'Red, White and Blue'. I have made a layout and a couple of cards. I used both my Cricut Explore and my Silhouette Cameo for my projects.
Let's start with the layout first. I used the Enjoy the Seasons Imagine Cartridge for the flags and title. The Sesame Street Elmo & Friends for Elmo with the flag, the Stand & Salute cartridge for the fireworks and the Independence Day cartridge for the firework rocket and firecracker. The journal tag came from the Silhouette store. It is file #28953. I bet you can guess where my photo is going to go. I used the 'Good Times' stamp set for the 'Celebrate' on the journal tag.



This first card is from the Silhouette store. File #61737. I think she is just adorable!! The bg paper is open stock from Hobby Lobby. I finished off the card with some Bo Bunny Anthem Jewels and the sentiment is from the 'Happy Days' stamp set.



And this last card I also used a file from the Silhouette store. It is #61910. Don't you think he is the most patriotic puppy you have ever seen?! Totally adorable! The bg paper on this one is also open stock at Hobby Lobby and I again used some Bo Bunny Anthem Jewels to finish it, followed by a sentiment from the 'Happy Days' stamp set.



All of Mary's awesomely wonderful stamps can be found by going to Cardz TV Stamps.


That's not all!! I will be giving away a stamp set of your choice from Mary's awesome selection of stamps. All I ask is that you leave just one comment, a way for me to reach you should you be picked and please have a USA address. I will use random.org to select the winner and will announce the winner on Monday evening.
Now you are ready to head to the next stop on the hop, my wonderfully talented DT Sister Karen.
I know you are just going to love her creation!!!!
Hope ya'll like my layout and cards!!!! :)
A list of all of the hop stops are below for just in case you get lost. Just come back here and find you way.

It's a Boy

Snips and snails and puppy dog tails with a frog or two thrown in there. Morning! Here it is Monday again and time for the new challenge at Bitten By The Bug 2. Our wonderfully talented DT Sister Diana is our hostess this week and she has challenged us to use a Cricut cut of a frog on our project. I'm not really fond of frogs, but sometimes we will have some teeny tiny ones that will get on our door going out to the deck. You can see their little sucked on feet as they cling to the glass. Now those are kinda cute.
I decided to make a baby card this week. Since I seem to always make little girl ones, I went with a little boy one this time. This is from the Nursery Tails Imagine Cartridge. I love how it turned out. Since it prints and then cuts our with the scallop, I decided to make a round card base. I took two circles from the Design Space Shapes and welded them together. I also cut two different sized ones to go on the inside. The inside sentiment is from the 'Congratulations' stamp set from Mary-Cardz TV Stamps.
Please head on over to Bitten By The Bug 2 and look at all the great frog projects that my DT Sister's have made. Awesomeness for sure!!! While you are there, check in the sidebar and read the rules for our challenges. Then head to your crafty space and create a project using a Criciut cut of a frog.
So looking forward to seeing what you make!!
Hope ya'll like my card!!!! :)

I Ruff You!

Morning my Crafty Friends!! Today I get to present the project at Cardz TV Gallery.
I decided to make a fun card this time. Kadoodle Bug Designs has some great SVG's. I love the Pampered Pooch set. This little puppy is just adorable!! I popped it up on the front of my card. I punched the grass from a punch. On the inside I put the doghouse that is with this set. So totally cute!!! I used the 'Barks and Bones' stamp set on my card. This set is retired but Mary has a great selection of stamps. You can check them out by going here.

Here it is Monday and the start of a new challenge over at Bitten By The Bug 2. Our wonderfully talented leader Susan is our hostess this week. She has challenged us and you too, to make a creations using a Cricut cut of a teapot and/or teacup. I just had to use Mrs. Pots and Chip from the Disney Princesses cartridge. Using my Cricut Explore, I print and cut two of each. I popped Mrs. Pots up and glued Chip straight to the card. The bg dp is from Disney Mega Paper Pack. The heart I cut from the Design Space Shapes feature. The sentiment is from the 'Encouraging Thoughts' stamp set from Mary-Cardz TV Stamps. I finished off my card by adding some enamel dots by Studio Calico.

Made these for our Kiddo's

Morning!! Hope all is well with you. I had a great day off yesterday and played a little in my crafty room. Can't show what I made yet, but thought I would show ya'll a couple of things that I made for my Kiddo's a while back. I used my Silhouette Cameo on both of these.
This first one I made for our son. The file # is 74452. I printed and cut it out, applied it to the wood with modge podge and then modge podged all of the wood. I love this and so did our son.



This next one is the one I made for our daughter. It is #75490. Our daughter got a huge kick out of it and she loves it. Thought it fit her family perfectly since she and her husband have 4 children. This is outdoor vinyl in black.

 
Thanks for stopping by and visiting me today. And I hope ya'll liked my projects. :)

Mother's Day

Morning everyone!! Hope you had a great weekend. Ours was beautiful with sunshine and just the perfect temperature.
Are ya ready for our new challenge at Bitten By The Bug 2? Our wonderfully talented DT Sister Caroline is hosting this week. She has challenged us and you to make a Mother's Day project using any Cricut cut. My Mom loves Humming Birds so that is the direction I went for my card. Using my Explore, I print and cut the Humming Bird from the Lori's Garden Imagine Cartridge. I think it turned out great. I print and cut two so I could pop the top one up. The frame around the Humming
Bird was cut from the Stretch Your Imagination Cartridge. I used the piece that cut from the inside as my sentiment piece on the inside along with a Humming Bird that I print and cut in a smaller size. The pattern paper is from a My Mind's Eye 6x6 pad called Quilting Bee. The ribbon/bow is some seam binding that I crinkled and dyed. The sentiment on the inside is from the 'Mother's Day' stamp set from Mary-Cardz TV Stamps. I finished it off with some half white pearls from Hobby Lobby.
Head on over to Bitten By The Bug 2 and check out the projects that my DT Sister's have made. I'm tellin' ya, awesomeness for sure!!! While you are there, look over in the sidebar for the rules for our challenges. Then head to your crafty room and make a Mother's Day project using a Cricut cut.
I hope ya'll like my card!!!! :)

Hoo's Having a Birthday!

Morning my Crafty Friends!! Hope all is well with ya'll! I have the honor today to present the project at Cardz TV Gallery. I hope ya'll have been visiting every week day and checking out the projects that my DT Sisters have been showcasing. If you haven't, I'm tellin' ya that you have been missing some awesomeness for sure!!!!
I seem to never have a birthday card ready when I need one, so I decided to make one. Kadoodle Bug Designs has some adorable Cutie KaToodles SVG cuts. I just had to use the Barn Owl one. It is so darling!!! I cut it in purple and popped it up on a couple of ovals that I cut from the Plantin School Book Cartridge, which I also popped up. The pattern papers I used for the ovals came from a Recollections 6x6 pad called Simple Pastels. The sentiment is from the 'For the Bird's' stamp set. You can get a set of your own my visiting Mary's Stamp shop right here.


I finished off my card with some Sequins in Lavender and Bubble Gum.
Come back everyday this week and check out what my DT Sisters have in store for you. You'll be glad you did!!!!
Hope ya'll like my card!!!! :)
