Krafty Girls Challenge #3: Get Growing / FCCB #103 Celebrate Spring

Hello Crafty Friends!

"FLOWERS"

Here is my submission for the following challenges:
Krafty Girls Challenge #3:  "Get Growing"
Create a project that includes a handmade flower.

and

Make a project with at least three flowers.










The base of this card is purple cardstock, when folded it measures 5"x5".
To make the flowers, I used the Plantin Schoolbook Cricut Cartridge.
To make the "basket", I used the purse accessory from the Create A Critter Cricut Cartridge.
From the same cartridge, I also made the grass.
I used all solid cardstock from my stash.
To assemble the flowers, I used micro mini brads, and adhered lavender rhinestones to each one.
The green swirls are from Studio 112 by EK Success.
And, everything got accented in Stickles!


Thanks for stopping by! :-)

Krafty Girls Challenge #2: Feelin' Lucky

Hello Crafty Friends!

"FEELIN' LUCKY"


Here is my submission for the
Krafty Girls Challenge #2:  Feelin' Lucky







The base of this card is 7"x8" green cardstock.  I used the Cricut Craft Room (woop woop!) for the first time, ever, and it was amazing (since I do not own a Gypsy -- yet!).  So, for the word "feelin'" I used the Lyrical Letters cartridge in 'Loop Dee Loo' font, and was able to weld it together in the CCR. :-)  Both the word "Lucky" (phrase feature) and "Pot of Gold" were from the Create A Critter cartridge.  The "pot" is actually the TURTLE shell (layer 2 feature), upside down.  Cool, huh? And, I used foam squares to make it "pop".  I made the "gold" using the Cricut Craft Room Basics by welding and reshaping the scalloped circle and oval shapes.  The rainbow was made using Creative Memories Circle Patterns.  The card is framed in sparkly ribbon from my stash.  Gold rhinestones give the final accents.  The words "Feelin' Lucky" and the "Gold" are embellished with Stickles.

Krafty Girls Challenge #1: Home Sweet Home

Hello Crafty Friends!

"BROADWAY"


This is my submission for the
Krafty Girls Challenge #1:  Home Sweet Home








Being a native New Yorker, and an avid theatre goer, I couldn't think of any better representation of my Home Sweet Home than the Big Apple!  Here, I made a 6"x8" card in the shape of a "ticket" to represent a theatre ticket.  I used both rhinestones and silver stickles to represent the "marquis lights" on the theatres.  I used glitter on everything else.  I cut the word "Broadway" using the Lyrical Letters Cricut cartridge, Stretch Your Imagination to cut the "Apple" (which is really a pumpkin), and Plantin Schoolbook to cut the City Skyline.
