FREE Digital Paper Kits

Hi everyone!! I hope that all of you had a great week!  I was on Etsy and came across MGA Creations. She is trading a vote for a free digital kit.  How cool is that! She is trying to win a car and is currently in 2nd place.  I voted for her picture and sent her a message and she sent me my FREE DPK! She has so many wonderful paper kits it's so hard to choose.  You can click here to go to her Etsy shop and get the details.  If you let her know that I sent you she will give you and me a free DPK, so we all win!!  Please if you decide to vote for her picture, message her to let her know that you voted and that I sent you and if you could message me as well that way I can let her know how many people I have sent her way.   You have until July 6, 2011 12:00pm ET.

Robotz Birthday

Happy Friday!! I hope everyone's has had a fabulous week!  I wanted to share another birthday card that I made using the Robotz Cricut Cartridge. I absolutely love this cartridge! All of the robot cuts are so darn cute.  It such a great cartridge if you have a little boy, I plan on using it as a party cartridge when my little one gets older (I say that because I already have plans for his 1st birthday party using my Carousel Cricut Cartridge). It will make great invitations and it has 3D robots that can be used for center pieces.  It really is a great Cartridge.  I like the way my card turned out, I used a fiskar's balloon punch to cut the balloons and just drew strings to the robots hand. I also gave some of the balloons a dimension by adding some pop dots! Here you go...

 

Supplies Used:

Designer Paper: The Paper Studio-A Boys Universe

Cricut Cartridge: Robotz

Stamps: Stampendous-Impressions Every Time

Fiskars: Border Punch, Balloon Punch

White Gel Pen

Manly Birthday Card

Ok, so I think it's my fault if it starts to storm I mean my goodness 3 posts back to back, what's going on...lol!!  I'm having fun sharing my creations with all of you! I just hope that you are finding at least one thing that inspires you.  If you are like me, I have many blogs that I love to follow. There are so many talented crafters that truly inspire me and I just hope that I can be one just for you. Today, I am sharing a card that I made for my husband. If you ask me I think the hardest thing to create is a card for a man, I don't know why but for me it just is. I didn't use my cricut at all, just some designer paper and a sticker and I love the way it turned out. I can't believe that it only took me 20 minutes to think and create this card, the more I make that faster I seem to create in my mind (if that makes sense...lol)!  Here it is...

Supplies Used:

Paper: DCWV-Linen Closet Stack (love it)

Michael's Craft Store: Cupcake 3-D Sticker

American Crafts-White Embossing Powder

We R Memory Keepers- Corner Chomper

Boy's Mini Album

Hello, wonderful scrappers! I hope everyone's creative mind had a good rest!! I know I'm rested this morning, I mean come on now 2 blogs in 2 days...wow!! Just wanted to share a little something because I know I'm not the only one out there, but sometimes (actually many many times) I can not sleep because I'm constantly thinking of what I should do next...lol! I'm serious, many time after putting my son to sleep I've stayed awake until 2am.  I know, I know, I should be asleep with him, but sometimes that's my only time to scrap.  My husband calls our son the "Scrapping Baby" because he has to be around me when I scrap and he LOVES to watch my Cricut cut out my images...lol, no joke! So, as much as I love my son, he makes it a bit hard to scrap when he is up!! Here is some proof...

Now on to my project! Creations with Christina inspired me to create my first mini album.  I scrap lifted a few of her ideas, but tried to make them my own in some way. If you click on her name it will take you to her project. Here is my version and I hope you get inspired just like I did!

Supplies Used:

Cricut Cartridge: Boys will be Boys, Fabulous Finds

Designer Paper: The Paper Studio-Little Boys and Their Toys

Stamps: Inkadinkado-Baby Boy, Stampabilities-Notebook/Stars, Stampology-Boy,

MPS-National Scrapbook Day Challenge #11

MPS Challenge #11-Make a project and use Pink, Green and Black in it!

This was a very easy and quick 3x3 card. I normally don't make any this size, but I thought that it would be a cute idea to make a small card just to thank someone, tell them hello or to tell them hey, I'm thinking about you! I will definitely be making more this size!

 

Well it came to an end and I thank you for stopping by! If you have any questions about any of my projects, please feel free to leave a comment or email me!
