Shape card challenge

This is my last week designing for the FCCB, I have so much going on I felt I could not give it all it deserved. So this weeks challenge is to make a shape card!
I used the new circle exclusive cartridge Cricut Everyday to create the cartridge card and the circle logo.
I also used Pink by Design sentiment stamps "Crop till you drop"

FCCB Blog Hop

*******Hi If your looking for the LOTS OF LOVE BLOG HOP CLICK HERE. **********



If you hopped from Leinad's blog you are in the right place !!!!

I decided to make shirts for my girls. My daughter has been begging me for a shirt with a bug head on it so I finally made her one with my YUDU.

Below is a video on how I made this shirt using vinyl instead of the emulsion process. I also explain how you can use vinyl as a stencil for shirts if you dont have a YUDU.

Thanks sooo much for stopping by! Next on the Fantabulous Cricut Blog Hop is Robin's Super cute blog !!!! Enjoy~

Getting ready for Halloween !!!

Everyone ready for Halloween? This week over at the Fantabulous Cricut were all about Halloween. Its not to late to make something special!

These were actually made by my 5 year old. She absolutely LOVES to make stuff with mom. I helped her with gluing the teeth but other than that for the most part she did it all! We made 52 in all. They are for the kids in her class, friends and family.

So how you can make your own? The Sixlets were purchased at the dollar store. The pumpkin was cut from Mini Monsters then I cut an extra pumpkin hiding all the cut lines for the back. We used glue dots to attach the sixlets before adding the back.

This is endless you could make these for a birthday and use a cupcake instead of a pumpkin, or whatever theme you choose !!!!! Enjoy~

Bake and Decorate Challenge

This weeks challenge at the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog is Bake and Decorate!

I have been wanting to try out the Cupcake Wrapper cartridge, so this was the perfect time!

The only problem was my cupcake was a short fat cupcake, so it didn't fit perfectly so I recommend sticking to regular size cupcake wrappers ☺

National Sewing Month

In honor of National Sewing Month the Fantabulous Cricut is having a sewing challenge. Fortunately we could use faux stitching because my sewing machine is buried quite deep in the closet LOL

This is a Halloween card created with 3 Birds on Parade, Stamping and Tags, Bags Boxes and More. Enjoy!!!!

Labor Day !!

Happy Labor Day Everyone! This weeks challenge is to create something related to labor day!

This card is made and dedicated to all the men and women in Law Enforcement!

So many years My husband and I worked Thanksgiving, Christmas, Birthdays, Family Reunions, and back to back 18 hour shifts.

Each day they sacrifice time away from their families protecting us, many complete strangers from harm. Some even make the ultimate sacrifice and that is what this card is for. The NLEOM stands for the National Law Enforcement Officer Memorial. Their symbol is the badge with a rose through it.

I created this card with Independence Day for the Flag, Everyday Paper Dolls for the badge, and Indie Art for the rose. Also used was the Distressing stripes Cuttlebug embossing folder. I also used rhinestones and red and green stickles for the rose.

SO the next time you see a Police Officer, Fireman, or Soldier take a minute to thank them for their service. They are putting their life in harms way to save and protect what is most dear to us, our families.
