Happy Friday everyone! It is challenge day over at Cardz TV! I love these days, because I play with Mary's amazing stamps - I can always find the perfect sentiment, not matter the challenge! Today Mary challenged us to create any project we wanted with her latest stamp set "Love in a Jar". Here is what I came up with:
I made this first project on my Cameo, for one of my daughter's friends. They are all obsessed with Monster High. I converted this in my Designer Edition and cut her out with Recollections paper. I did a bit of doodling with my Sakura Jelly Roll pen, added the sentiment from Love in a Jar and voila - my daughter was SO excited when she saw it.
So, onto project number 2. A simple little tag and gift card to give my homemade Strawberry Jam as a gift. I cut out around the tag shape and the jar - any one who knows me will be shocked, because they all know how much I disling "fussy cutting" but this was really easy to do. The "shadow" around the tag is cut by hand as well. The strawberry is from Simply Charmed and the face is from PK's "Happy Lashes". A little doodling and my perfect sentiments from Cardz TV Stamps and my simple little set is ready to give away. You can buy your own "Love in a Jar" stamp set HERE.
Now, you are probably wondering "how can I play along? I don't have this stamps set??" All you need to do, is make a card, layout or craft using something you'd put in a jar. Our challenge starts today and finishes June 27th at noon EST. Hop on over to Cardz TV, see what all my talented DT sisters came up with to inspire you, and play along with us. One lucky person will win a set of Cardz TV Stamps of their very own. I can't wait to see what you come up with!

Happy Tuesday everyone! It is my day to share a project over at the Exploring Cricut blog. Here is what I have today:
Tis the season for end of the school year. My kids are done the 28th of June this year. I have only just started to think of thank you gifts for the teachers. I made this little card as a thank you for my daughter's teacher. The teddy is from Teddy Bear Parade, of course, cut at 3 1/2 inches. The patterned paper is from a Recollections paper pack as is all the cardstock. The sentiment is from Cardz TV Stamps "School Days" set. It is one of my favorites, and you can find them HERE. I used my Stampin Up tag punches to cut out the sentiment.
Don't forget that every day, each one of the designers has a Cricut creation to share with you. We hope to inspire you to explore your Cricut cartridges and have lots of fun doing it!! Be sure to pop by the blog everyday and be prepared to be amazed!

Happy Friday everyone! It is challenge day over at Cardz TV! I love these days, because I play with Mary's amazing stamps - I can always find the perfect sentiment, not matter the challenge! Today Mary challenged us to create a FATHER'S DAY PROJECT. Here is what I came up with:
My first project is a card I made for my son to give my husband. I used a freebie from SVG Cutting Files. It was the first time I used one of their files, it cut really easily :) The paper is a mix of SU and Recollections. I doodled around with my Sakura Jelly Roll pens. The stamps are both from Cardz TV's "You're the Man" sentiment set. You can buy your own HERE!
On to my second creation for today:
This is a little tag that I made for my Dad for Father's Day. My whole life, Dad wore a shirt and tie almost every day - he has been retired for YEARS and still wears one almost daily. This seemed the perfect thing for him... This is a free SVG file from My Scrap Chick. She has a new freebie every week, and this was last weeks. I created the shadow on my Cameo and voila - a cute little tag. The paper is mostly Recollections except the pattern paper, which is old Creative Memories. The sentiment is from Cardz TV Stamps "Happy Days". This is one of my go to sets of Mary's, I can always find a sentiment that is perfect for my card on it, it is really versatile.
Our challenge starts today and finshes Thursday June 13th at noon EST. Hop on over to Cardz TV, see what all my talented DT sisters came up with to inspire you, and play along with us. One lucky person will win a set of Cardz TV Stamps of their very own. I can't wait to see what you come up with!
