LadyBug Birthday!

I made this card a while ago for my sister-in-law's birthday, I just never got a chance to post it, so I am now.

ALL paper is from The Paper Company's Value Packs.

I started out with a piece of 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" brown cardstock, and folded it in half for the base of my card. For my first layer I used a piece of black cardstock cut at 5 1/4" x 4". I then layered a piece of light blue cardstock cut at 2 1/2" x 3 3/4" on the top half of the black and a piece of green cardstock cut at 2" x 3 3/4" on the bottom half of the black, I attached them both using my ATG gun. Then I wrapped a piece of brown grosgrain ribbon around the whole thing to cover the "seem" where the two pieces met and secured it on the back using regular Scotch tape. Then I used my ATG gun to attach the whole thing to the base of the card.

I cut my ladybug at 3 1/2" from the "Create a Critter" cartridge using my Cricut Expression. I attached it to the card using 3-D Dots. The sun I cut at 1 1/2" also from the "Create a Critter" cartridge, and attached it with a 3-D Dot as well.

To finish off my card I used a stamp from My Pink Stamper's Birthday Crazy set for my sentiment with a Stampin' Up! Classic Chocolate Chip stamp pad.

I hope you all enjoyed this card, I know my sister-in-law did!!!

Happy Crafting!!!!

Ice Cream Card

I am so proud of this card!!! I had an overwhelming sense of accomplishment when I finished this project. I made this card for Fantabulous Cricut's Challenge Me Monday Contest. The challenge was to make a project incorporating ice cream, cold drinks or just any cool treat. It took me a couple days to get it right but I finally got it finished up last night and so I wanted to share it with you all today!!! I started with a 5.5"x8.5" piece of card stock folded in half for the base of my card. It was a piece of brown from The Paper Company's Natural Fashion Colors value pack. Then I cut a piece of dark orange from the same pack at 5 1/4" x 4" and used it for my first layer on the card. I attached it using my ATG gun.
