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"

Spinner Card


My very first spinner card...and yes I'm loving them! When you tilt the card the bird spins from one side of the card to the next!
I used Create a Critter, Mini Monograms or a punch, and you can cut the card and hole by hand or use your gypsy with any cart that has a rectangle and adjust the size!
I also used Pink by design sentiment stamp...it says..."Fluttering by to say hi"
Enjoy~

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~

Challenges and gifts !

I wanted to give a little treat to Candace (Paper crafts by Candace) and to Kim (Ricketts Cricuts) because we all got to meet yesturday for the first time !!! Heres a pic of us at dinner



So I made treat bags and incorporated 3 challenges into it.

Peachy Keen stamps- Needed to have a XOXO on the project. I used Peachy Keen Valentine stamps (the hearts and the sentiment) also the Princess set face stamp.

The other challenge was for the Circle blog, I needed at least 4 cuts. For this cute bag I used Sweethearts, Martha Stewart Elegant Cake, Wrap it Up, and Paisley cartridges.
The last challenge is to make a project with a bug at the creativecutter

I also used glossy accents, Bakers twine from the Twinery, a button and Stickles !
Enjoy~
