Happy Birthday Sweetie

My sweetie's Birthday is on Mothers Day this year... He LOVES his new man toy so I found this image and colored it up with copics.. the paper was from my stash so can't rememember who makes it... there is a inside pocket that will hold some cash for him... He is busy painting so will not have time to look at my blog before I get the card to him..

Mothers Day

well its been awhile.. I've been away taking care of sick relatives and to be honest EVERY spare minute was spent helping out family... there has been no time for new crafts.. now I'm back home and ready to knock the dust off my copics.... my cricut thinks I've abandoned it.... This is a card I made for my mom in law on Mothers Day....

the image was colored with copics and I hand made the flowers... the butterflies were a MS punch

FOUND A GREAT site

hey all.. don't know if anyone else has heard of this but I kinda stumbled onto it today and thought I'd share... I'm always having trouble finding which cricut cartridge a certain cut I want is on... cheat sheets help but you still have to go thru paper.. the gypsy is wonderful for doing searching, but thats a lot of money to pay if all you ever use it for is to search cut files... so this site:

CRICUT SEARCH

was created. the next time you are wondering which cricut cartridge has a birthday cake, or baseball, go to this site and search there..

hope it helps you like is has been helping me.

Since I still have so many Thanksgiving cards to get out I decided I would try a scallop easel card.. This was challenging to get the scallops to line up once I put the front onto the easel base... but I think it turned out o.k. for a first try.

Catch The Bug Challenge - World Kindness Day

This week at Bugaboo Stamps' Catch The Bug Challenge its all about World Kindness Day. I made this card using the Bugaboo Angels (If Friends Were Flowers) stamp.
