Help Angela reach her Goal!

Hi All my Crafty Friends! Hope you all are doing good today. Wanted to tell you that Angela from Creative Creations with Angela is having a giveaway! She is trying to reach her goal of 75 followers. She is the Sweetest and is giving away a $50.00 Gift Card to Michaels. How Exciting is that! I Love living in a small town but one of the draw backs is that I live about 50 miles away from the nearest Michaels and don't get to go very often. So I would be So Excited to win. If you would like to have the chance to win and to help Angela reach her goal,  head on over to Angela's Blog  http://wwwcreativecreationsbyangela.blogspot.com/ . Thanks for stopping by my Blog. Working on some Crafty projects. Hope to post pictures of them soon. Have a Great Creative Day! :0)

New Card to Share!

Hi, Just thought I'd share a Card with you that I just made for a Friends Birthday! I used a Retired Stamp Set  from Stampin Up called Baraque Motifs. I just bought this set off of someone from The Scrap Yard. It's a place on Facebook that people can Sale or Buy Crafty things. I had always wanted to get this Stamp Set. But always thought it was to Expensive. So when I seen it for $8.00 and that was including Shipping. I knew that I had to get it. The Cardstock that I used was Lavender Lace, Certainly Celery, Summer Sun and Whisper White. Inks- Lavender Lace and Certainly Celery.The Butterflies are from Stampin Up, called Embosslits Beautiful Wings Die. Added three little Green Gems to the Largest Butterfly. The Top Note Die is from Stampin Up. Used Stampin Up Scallop Oval Punch and Large Oval Punch. The Birthday Wishes Stamp is from a Stampin Up Set called Sencere Salutations. Also added a little Dazzling Diamonds to the flowers. I think it turned out Pretty. My favorite colors are Purple and Green.  I am going to enter this Card into a Challenge over at http://www.thepapergirlschallenge.blogspot.com/  The Challenge is to make  something for a Birthday. I just recently found this Blog and I'm excited to be a part of the challenge. The deadline is August 18th. Just in case you would like to make something. I am also going to enter this into another Challenge Blog that I just found over at http://www.comeandgetitchallenges.blogspot.com  On this Challenge you are to make an Adult Birthday Card. I'm also Excited about joining this challenge. So glad that you decided to stop by. If you decide to leave a comment. Please add your Blog address to it. Would Love to visit your Blog. Hope you all have a Safe,Happy and Creative Day!  Cindy  :0)

Cute way to Store Twine!

Hi Crafty Friends! I haven't posted for a few weeks! Been so busy with Work, Grandkids and not been feeling to good. I have been working on a Project for an up coming Blog Hop that I'm going to be in, So I don't have anything that I have Created to Share with you. So I thought I would show you a Cute way to Store your Twine. I went to a Yard Sale a Few weeks ago and seen this Sugar Jar and thought it that would be perfect for holding Twine. I Love It! I'm going to Share this on the Link Up Tuesday at the    PinkCricut.com Thanks for Stopping by my Blog. Hope you have a Happy Creative Day!  Cindy

Happy 4th of July!!!

Hello and Happy 4th of July to you! I can't get over that it is already July! Before we know it, It will be Christmas. It is so Hot here. I wouldn't mind a little snow today. Thought I would share a couple of Bookmarks that I made for two of my Nieces. They were both born on the 4th of July. No they are not twins. And both of their names start with A. I Cut the Book Marks from the Sweet treats Cartridge and the A was cut from the Storybook Cartridge. I usually make them a Card, but thought they would get more use out of Bookmarks and they were so easy to make. Now I will have to make some more for all of my other Nieces.

Happy Birthday Angie and Amanda!

  Also wanted to share a photo of the hair Barrette that I made for my little Grand Daughter Scarlett  to wear today for the 4th of July. Sorry the picture is a little Blurry. She wouldn't stop moving for me to take a clearer  picture. (It's really hard for 5 year old's to hold still). The Roses are made from 3 inch squares of felt. It was my first time trying to make felt flowers. So there not perfect. But she really likes it. That's all that counts! Glad you stopped by my blog. Hope you all have a safe and happy 4th of July!

Watermelon Card!

Hi all, Hoping your having a wonderful Day! Wanted to Share a Card that I just made for my Sister Tammy's Birthday. I can't get over how easy this Card was to make. I cut the Circles out from the Storybook Cartridge,The Scallop I think was from from Gypsy Wanderings, I had looked at several different Scallop's. But I think that is the one I choose. and the Watermelon Seeds were cut from The Child's Year Cartridge. I added a Black Button and some Hemp Twine and Sponged around the outside edge with S.U. Close to Cocoa Ink. Super Easy! My Favorite Way! The Stamps that I used for the Inside reads " Hope you have a Sweet Celebration" and Happy Birthday! I think it turned out Cute!  I am entering this Card in the My Craft Spot  Hot Summer Colors Challenge and I am also entering this in the Challenge me Monday Challenge over at fantabulouscricut  The Challenge Is BBQ Time. Watermelon is a must have at any BBQ. Thanks for stopping by my Blog. If you leave a comment please leave your blog address,so that I can come visit you. Have a Super Day!  Cindy :0)

Two Father's Day Cards and Winner of my Blog Candy!!!

Hi,and Thanks for stopping by my Blog today! It is so Hot outside today here in Indiana. Going to be 94 degrees. Way to hot for me. So my plans for today are to make some Sweet Tea and make some Cards. First thing that I want to share with you today is a Couple of Father's Day Cards.

The First Card is the one that I made for my Dad. I got this plaid paper at Michaels. As soon as I seen it I thought of my Dad. He is always wearing these kind of Shirts. Had a terrible time with my White Pen. Just couldn't seem to get the Ink out very good.( If anyone has any tips on to get the Ink out better, I would sure love to know.)  That is an old Gift Card that I stuck in there,just to take the picture. I actually ended up putting Cash in it.



  
This Father's Day Card was made by my Grand Children (with my help) to give to there Papaw. They laughed while making it. Because Papaw has a Mustache to. The letters are from the Mickey Font Cartridge and we used the Seeing Spots Embossing Folder. I hand drew the Mustache and Cut it out. We had a lot of Fun making this Card.


     
Hope you enjoyed seeing the Cards ,I also wanted to Thank Everyone that visited my Blog on the Cricut in our Names Blog Hop. I had a really Fun time and everyone left wonderful Comments. I got several new Followers. Thanks so much, I really appreciate it.

And now It's time to Announce the Winner of my Blog Candy! The Paper Pack called (Sweet Summer)!
