I also participated in the Recipie Challenge for National Scrapbook Day on the Circle Blog.  The Recipie is as follows:


I used my Cricut Imagine and the Better Together Imagine Cartridge to print the background paper and the paper the for the Red Heart.  The Bird and Sentiment are also printed and cut from the same cartridge.  there is faux stitching on the printed sentiment and I also did some faus stitching around the edge of the card.

Cricut Circle Magazine Challenge - Banners!

The Challenge for the Cricut Magazine this month is to create a banner with at least 4 Cricut Cuts...


Each of the mittens, the Letters and the snowflake were cut on the cricut machine!

Paper Smooches - Cardstock Only Challenge

Paper Smooches is having a Cardstock Only Challenge - no patterned paper allowed... you are allowed some embeslishments but the cardstock had to be the main focus of the card! 

Here is my Take on the Challenge...

I stamped the sentiment and heart on the white cardstock... coloured in the heart with a red copic marker.
Then I stamped the BEE Mine and created it into a banner shape and the Bee is stamped on white cardstock, coloured with copics... a little Ranger Stickles was added to his wings and body... and some Glossy accents to the centre of this body... A little twine to finish it off...
