I used a Paper Crafting World image for my little princess bear! She came out so cute =) Had to add some stickles to her for a little extra princess sparkle! The card base I found on Birdscards.com. And the sentiment is from Jaded Blossoms "100% Princess" set. She's also on a wobble! (gotta love them!)

 Grab your pitchforks and your overalls because this hoe down is about to begin!!

Now, onto my project! I actually made 2 for this hop...I just couldn't decide which one I wanted to make, so I did them both! 

I bought this cute cow image from the SIL store and it came as a print and cut file. I added him onto a wobble because why not? they are so much fun! I used a Jaded Blossom mini tag and stamped it with one of their "farm candies" stamps. I embossed my red paper for some extra texture and added cute washi tape to the middle! 

\

My 2nd card was also done with the Silhouette. I added these cute farm animals to a background and did a print n cut with them (cut out the background, but not the animals). The wood grain paper is also from the SIL store. I added that mat to a purple background and put a gold sparkly piece of ribbon around the bottom. I stamped the card with a Jaded Blossom stamp from their "udderly adorable" set. 

Up next is the talented Linda!

I decided to use my cameo, Jaded Blossom and Close To My Heart with my project! 

 

I LOVE this little shark! He is a Miss Kate Cuttables image that I bought from the sil store. I had these pre-printed chevron cards already that I bought from Michaels a while back. I added a white background that I embossed with my big kick. 

 I then took another white piece of cardstock that I stamped using JB's "Under the Sea" set that was just released. The sentiment was inked with ctmh's Lagoon ink. I also took that same color and added some color to the bubbles on both of the white mats. I added 3 fun droplets in seaglass color.

And to top off the card, I put the shark on a wobble! I love those things! 

Ingredients:

Miss Kate Cuttables Shark

Jaded Blossom "Under the Sea"

Sizzix Big Kick

Silhouette Cameo

Close to my Heart Lagoon Ink

Action Wobbles

Gingerbread Treat Jar

It's that time of the year again! We lucked out this year with some really great teachers for the boys! Very excited to make their gifts this year! 

My Gingerbread treat jar is for our 4th grade teacher. Hope she loves it! 

I used LOTS of great Jaded Blossom goodies for this treat! And, because my cameo decided to not cut paper (i guess shes a vinyl only kinda gal), I pulled out my E2 and actually really enjoyed using it! 

I got this overly cute little scoop from JB. I put twine around it and hot glued it to my AC xmas ribbon. The burlap around the jar I also bought from JB. My tag is from their Treat Tag Die. I also used stamps from Gingerbread Wishes & Winter Wishes. My paper is from Echo Park. 

I added a piece of coordinating cardstock to my burlap so I can stick my gingerbread to the jar using an Action Wobble. I really love these things! I cut my gingerbread man at 2.5" from Create A Critter 2. 

I stamped 45 kisses with JB's Gingerbread Candies. 

My little guy has a stickle bowtie and pearl buttons.

Thanks for taking a peek!

I am entering my jar into Jaded Blossom's Monthly Challenge. Here's the requirements:

Challenge Guidelines: 

1) Project must be new for this challenge, no back linking

2) Project must have a Jaded Blossom stamp somewhere on it.
