HIMCR #107- Freestyle!

Today’s card (yet another birthday card!) was made with the new Ruby- RockIt! Carnival Queen papers.  These were really fun to use.  I dusted off my Cricut (literally - there is too much dust here!) and cut out the cute cupcake from the Rock Princess cartridge.  The sentiment tag was cut from Art Philosophy and the stamps on the sentiment are my new stamps from Unity Stamp Co. I topped it off with some sparkly stickles and a few metal gems from Joann’s.  I really love how it came out and know my niece will love it too :)

Thanks for stopping by and be sure to head over to Hiding in My Craft Room to see all the other yummy treats the DT has to share with you today!

HIMCR #106 - Super Scraps Saturday!

It is my favorite challenge of the month! Time to use up all the scraps you've been accumulating!

I am back with another birthday card (hey we have a large family!) This week I used a scrap I played around with when we challenged you to Try a New Technique. I made several of these little "cards" playing around with that faux linen look so I figured it was time to use one up.

Thanks for looking and head to Hiding in My Craft Room to link us up!

HIMCR #105 - Red and Green!

This week is a color challenge - red and green! You can do something for Christmas in July or any other project using red and green.  Make sure to go to Hiding in My Craft Room to link us up!

I chose to make a card for my niece's birthday that is coming up.  I really dug into my stash this time! I used Lil Davis (remember them?) rub on letters for the greeting. I think I've had them for about 6-8 years now!  Eek.  I really need to purge my supplies......

Thanks for stopping by!

HIMCR #103 - Wedding!

After taking a short hiatus last week I am back with another Hiding in my Craft Room challenge!  This week the theme is wedding! It is that time of year with blushing brides abounding and its the perfect time to create a card, layout or other wedding themed item to enter into our challenge.  Head over to Hiding in My Craft Room to link us up and check out the other great design team projects!

My daughter got married in Dec. and I hadn't started her wedding book yet so this was the perfect impetus!  I still need to edit and print the photos I took but I did have the shots my brother took at the wedding itself that I got printed yesterday and then created this layout.  I still have a bunch of tulle leftover from the wedding so I pulled out a strip, cut the sides with my pinking shears and then sewed a line of thread down the center to gather it into a ruffle to put on the layout.  I really love how it came out and being able to keep a small momento is wonderful! Her colors were teal, purple and the purply pink of the tulle so you will be seeing a lot of those colors as I work my way through the pictures!

Thanks for stopping by!
