Hoppy Easter Card!

Hey Everyone! : ) I'm back! I'm really sorry for the absence! I've been really busy and I have had no time for card making.. But now I am! I will be starting a new segment called Scraping on Sunday. Where I will post a main card on Sunday along with a tutorial. So be aware! : ) But now.. here's the card!



Here's the card for today! It's so cute! : )


Here is the supply basket for today! : )

Cricut Machine
Create a Critter Cricut Cartridge
Stampin' Up! Word Window Punch
Stampin' Up! Modern Label Punch
Stampin' Up! Wild Wasabi Ink Pad
Stampin' Up! Wild Wasabi Cardstock
Light Yellow Card Stock
White Cardstock
Polka Dot Patern Paper
Recollections Pattern Paper Pad
Versa Mark Ink Pad
Versa Mark Ink Pen
Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set
Stamp n Bond Powder
Martha Stewart Green Glitter
Thick Yellow Organza Ribbon
Martha Stewart Scoring Bored
Martha Stewart Heat Gun

You Really don't need all of these.. but I added lots of steps in it today's card!!


So this is what I was originally gonna do with the card.. but I decided not to use the green and yellow patterned paper and not to use the white card stock in the layering. But I used the light yellow cardstock and trimmed it to the standard card size of 4-1/4x5-1/2 inches. Then I trimmed the polka dot green patterned paper to 4x5-1/4.


Here is the layout on my Cricut for you to see how I set up the Bunny and the carrot! The size of the bunny is 3.75 inches. And the carrot is 2.75 inches along with its attachment.


Here's how I laid out the paper! I just followed the lines on the cricut mat. Ignore the smudge on the mat.. Long story! : (


This is what you get at the end of cutting out from the Cricut. Next Layer the layers : ) on top of eachother like so..


I added all of the bunny layers and look how cute he is! : D Also on the carrot I put Green Martha Stewart Glitter on the leaf. Check out the video tutorial page for how to apply loose glitter effectively. Then I adhered the layer on the carrot and added Versa Mark Ink pen with little lines on the carrot! : )


Here I tied the yellow organza ribbon around the green patterned paper and tied it into a little knot. : ) then I adhered it to the Card base. Then with my modern label punch I punched out the white cardstock and then stamped the Happy Easter Sentiment in Wild Wasabi on light yellow cardstock. Then I punched it out from the word window punch.


Here's the finished product! : ) I added the bunny and carrot together and the sentiment up top! Enjoy! Thanks again everyone for being loyal!

Next I punched out 6 hearts. 3 in the floral pattern and 3 in the pink cardstock. I added small dimensionals on the front of the 3 floral hearts.

30 Day Card Challenege Card # 7- Thank you



Here's the card today! A friend of mine made me some Cherry Chesecake and I wanted to make her a thank you card for her!


Here I used
My Mind's Eye Stamp Set
My Mind's Eye Dolled Up Paper Pad
Cosmo Cricut Paper pad
Stampin' Up! Wild Wasabi Ink Pad
Kraft Cardstock
Stampin' Up! 5 Petal Punch


Here I used the standard 4-1/4x5-1/2 and turned it hot dog style. Now I cut some patterned paper from My Mind's Eye paper pad the polka dot which is trimmed to fit the card. Then the yellow patterned paper is trimmed a couple sizes smaller I eyeballed it ; ). Then I cut some green plaid paper and trimmed Kraft cardstock.





Here you can put it all together place it closer to the top and leave some space at the bottom : ).


I added some white stiching around the kraft cardstock. And I used some Thank You stamp sentiment I had lying around. I stamped it in Wild Wasabi.


I punched out these flowers and adhered it onto the card. The smaller polka dot is on the back of the larger polka dot! I hope you enjoyed this tutorial! See you tomorrow!

30 Day Challenge Card #6 - Floral Friend


As you know I don't do cards on the weekend! But due to the Sun Flares recently my internet and computer along with all my electronics have been acting wacky so I'm sorry for no card yesterday I couldn't get in to post it! Dang electronics! Any way! Here's yesterdays card!


Here's what I used!!

Kraft Cardstock
White Gel Pen
Stampin' Up! 3 Hearts Punch
Corner Rounder
Cosmo Cricut Floral Paper Pad

Let's get started!!

Here I used the standard 4-1/4x5-1/2 and then I cut a piece of floral pattern paper from the Cosmo Cricut pad if you eyeball it the paper should look something like above. Then I rounded the corners of the inside pattern paper and the card itself. But I only did the top left and bottom right corners.


 Basically I did eyeball this again, but I trimmed the kraft cardstock 1-1/2x 3-5/8. I then added some dimensional adhesive to the back of it.


Here I used my heart punch and punched out four hearts out of two different pieces of patterned paper from the Cosmo Cricut paper pad again. I then adhered them vertically down the center of the Kraft square. Also place the kraft square higher on the card and leave a little space for a sentiment.


I added some stitching down the middle of the hearts, and then around the entire card. Next I used the My Minds Eye Clear Stamp Set and used some black ink. And that's it! Simple and easy!! Thanks for tuning in!

30 Day Card Challenge Card # 5 - LOVE Pattern


Ok so this was today's card plan! I decided to make something a little easier! It's so easy you'll be like 'Shut the Front Door!' easy. So let's get started!!


Here are the supplies used.. but ignore the pink ribbon again! I used red organza ribbon instead!

Stampin' Up! Heart Punch
Red Gems
Red Organza Ribbon
Love Me Paper Pad
Red Cardstock

Keep reading for the tutorial! : )


Ok so the LOVE is from the LOVE ME paper pad and I just cut it out. The paper pad is 6x6 so I made my base cardstock 3x6 or I cut it out at 6x6 and scored at 3". So I just trimmed the LOVE and adhered it to the card.


Here I used patterned paper from the same paper pad that matched the hearts under the LOVE. I cut it 1-1/8x6 and adhered it above the LOVE.


I cut the red organza ribbon at 7-1/2 and wrapped it around the card just above the line of paper.


Here I punched out with my Heart Punch the above pattern and added a dimensional to the back. The I put the smaller red gem on the heart and addhered it to the blank space of the card.

Thanks for tuning in! Ill see you tomorrow!! : )

30 Day Challenge Day Card # 3 - Friend Medallion


Hey everyone, I decided to stick with the medallion theme today : ). I wanted to make this card a little more masculineish haha minus the hearts.. But I love the punch! hahaha! But any way enjoy the tutorial!


Ok here is the supplies! I forgot to add the heart punch in this oopsies! But it wasn't hard to make!

Little Black Dress 6x6 paper pad
Stampin' Up! Teeny Tiny Stamp Set
White Gel Pen
Stampin' Up! Corner Rounder
Stampin' Up! 3/4 Circle Punch
Stampin' Up! 3 Hearts Punch
Scallop Edge Scissors
Kraft Cardstock
Black Ink
Martha Stewart Circle Cutter

There you go! Oh! and a little disclaimer.. The Marth Stewart Circle punch I use takes some practice to get used to.. I'd suggest putting it on a cuttlebug B Mat where it's raised up. But also the cutter blade is super super sharp so just be Careful! : )


I cut a piece of Kraft Cardstock 1-1/8 x 5 inches. Then I used some of the assorted patterned paper from the paper pad I cut them into various strip sizes. I then added adhesive to the cardstock and layerd the strips of paper diagonally.


The result should look something like this! Finish all the way to the other end layering different patterns next to each other. Once that was finished I turned it around and cut the excess off.


I adhered the patterned design we just made on to the standard        4-1/2 x 5 Kraft cardstock. Then I eyeballed the size of the width of the black cardstock but the length of it is 5 inches long. I then used the scallop scissors and trimmed the edge. I layered it over the strips of paper and adhered it down.


With the Martha Stewart Circle Cutter I cut out the creme patterned paper from the paper pad. The size of the circle is 2-7/16 And then with my circle punch I punched out a bunch of circles. I added adhesive to the edge of the circle and added then all around the edge on the back.


This is what the finished medallion should look like : )


Now add the medallion to the card and trim the edge of the piece hanging off the card.


I stamped in black ink this sentiment.


Finally I punched out hearts and adhered it to the middle of the medallion. I rounded the top orners of the card. Lastly I added some white stitching to the card. I hope you enjoy this card as much as I did! Thanks for tuning in! : )

Stay tuned in for 26 more days of cards!
