Angela's 30th Birthday Hop

Welcometo “Angela’s 30^th Birthday” Hop! So glad you can join us!

12 super crafty girls would like to share with you their birthday creations. Hopefully this will give you all some inspiration to make something for that upcoming birthday!

If your looking for the start of the hop, your in the right spot! I can't wait to show you what I made!

I used my Cricut Imagine for most of my card. All the monsters and the word BOY & #5 are cut from Notebook Doodles. I printed a full page of the images and then I hand cut the monsters and letters that I needed. I used a new sizzix embossing folder for the background and some fabulous gray chevron washi tape from My Mind's Eye. The twine is also MME! Oh...and birthday is cut from my cameo! 

On the inside of the card, I used all Jaded Blossom items. I used the fancy topper die for the back and the happy birthday is stamped from the sweet birthday wishes set. 

Your next stop is Ashley

Bowling Party Fun!

We finally got to celebrate Jayce's 9th Birthday yesterday! We went bowling and had so much fun! about 21 kids showed up, 1/2 that in parents, loud music and tons of laughing! Couldn't have asked for a better day! I didn't have time to do much for his party so I just put together a quick favor. I must say, I love how they turned out!

                                      

I used all sorts of fun "ingredients" for the favors!

Jaded Blossom Boxes

Jaded Blossom Flag Die

Jaded Blossom Simple Sayings 2 stamp set

Bowling ball & Pin came from SVG Cutting Files that Ann gave her FB friends as a free file =)

Twine is from Doodle Bug Designs

Thanks for stopping by!

I am going to be phasing out my wordpress blog very slowly. I am going to make the switch to blogger permanently. I think that will be what I'm really looking for over there! I hope you will all follow me here =) 

Love Is In The Air Blog Hop 2/1

Hello everyone and Welcome to Love is in the Air Blog Hop!

Valentine’s Day has to be one of my favorite holidays next to Christmas and Thanksgiving. I love the decor,  flowers, candy, balloons, and stuffed animals and let’s not forget the cheesy cards! Valentine’s Day is that one special day we can show extra love and appreciation to all of those special people we have in our lives. To celebrate Valentines Day, I have a group of talented designers that have created their own special project to showcase. We hope you enjoy hopping away and as always we hope to inspire you!

Lluvia will be giving away a grand prize, all you have to do is comment on each of the designer’s blog! Winner will be picked on 2/5, please leave your email address!

If you came from Shawnee you are in the right direction!

For my project, I made a cute Valentine's Day toolbox. I got this file from the Silhouette Store. I added some tissue paper at the bottom and filled it with yummy heart-shaped York Patties. This box was so easy to put together! I'm thinking this will be going to each kids teacher for Valentine's Day!

The paper I used is double-sided from Scribble Scrabble (Doodle Hearts & Shabby Slate). I cut a circle tag out and stamped the slate side of it with 2 Jaded Blossom stamps from Valentine Treats. I LOVE CTMH ink (all I use!) and this one was Smokey Plum =)

Now on to Elicia.

My Love For You Is Scary

A few girls in my Cricut Swap group decided to do a card swap for Valentine's Day.

There are 2 requirements... 1: must have a cricut cut on it & 2: must be Valentine themed. YAY! That's easy enough!

"Ingredients" for my card:

DCWV pink & pink rickrack cards (scored a ton of packs from TjMaxx for $1.49!)

Jaded Blossom Flag Dies

Jaded Blossom Love Bites Stamp Set

Timeless Twine Strawberry Cupcake

Flags came from a Sizzix stamp & die set I have

Slate & Cranberry Ink from Close To My Heart

Random paper from my scrap stash

Jewels I bought from Miriam's Crafting Supplies

                   

Thanks for looking!

Action Wobble Challenge #39

This weeks challenge over at Action Wobble is "Get Inspired"

Requirements are as follows:

It can be any type of project, but YOU MUST INCLUDE THE LINK OR PICTURE WHERE YOU GOT YOUR INSPIRATION FROM, and it must have an Action Wobble on it.

What inspires me!? I love Pinterest of course! And google images is another favorite of mine =) I also get lots of inspiration from my crafty friends on Facebook as well!

My inspiration came from Cricut Project Center. Just a simple yet cute Valentine's Day card.

I am an admin for a cricut swap group and I belong to a few others as well. This month was Valentine's Day so I made the cute little bee from Create A Critter 2. I decided to use my spare for the card that I made. I made it very late last night and just couldn't think anymore! He was a little plain so I jazzed him up with the action wobble to make him fly!

I used stickles for his wings, cheeks and the little heart for the I. I found the cute felt heart "ribbon" at the $1 spot in Target! (Love that section!)

Look at him fly!

I used Jaded Blossom's Fancy Topper die for the inside. I also used their really fun "Love Stings" set for the sentiment and bee at the bottom =)

Thanks for stopping by =)

Cupid's Got A Gift...

Valentine's Day...One of my favorite holidays! I know...it's early to be thinking of hearts and flowers but I can't resist! Especially when I have such fun things sitting on my table to make the holiday treats that much better!

SVGcuts offered this adorable little cupid as a freebie this week. Love him! I cut him out on my cameo (which I am growing more and more fond of!)

I attached him with some large pop dots for a little "extra" to the box! The flag die, "Cupid Poop" & treat box is from Jaded Blossom (are you surprised?!)

The twine I used is from Divine Twine in Valentine color =)
