fruits

Here's a card I was able to combine for 2 challenges http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com/  #70 (melon time),  http://craftspotbykimberly.blogspot.com/  #18 (emboss it), http://diecuttindivas.blogspot.com/  #25 (sweet treats) and http://cricutcardzchallenge.blogspot.com/ challenge #86 (tuitti fruitti)  I wish you can actually see the proper colours used.  The fruits are so bright, yummy and glossy.

For this challenge I used the Cricut Perserves and Pagoda cartridge, bamboo embossing folder, SU  card stock,  emboss folder reversed, brads, punch and ink and retired hostess stamp , dimensional glue and tape for the fruits, chalk.  I ofcourse cut the fruits out in white cardstock and used Copic pens to colour the fruits.

Hi everyone,
So many challenges and not enough time, if only you had a pause button.  :D
For this challenge #23 at http://celebratetheoccasion.blogspot.com/  we had to make a card using blue and white.  I use Cricut Robotz cartridge for the focus , SU star punches, ds paper, cardstock ane ribbon.  I also use a little Copic pens for various parts of the robot and I think the stripped paper was from DCVW, oh and don't forget the little bling for the wheels and antenne.  The shimmy paper was from the treasure stash...
Have a gr8 wkend...

Cutie pie

I used Lala image for this card.  Copic pens was used to colour the image, various papers from the stash pile, SU ribbon and punch, finally a rub on "sweet" was used. 

For challenge #12 at http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.com/ ( :( can someone pls tell me why I'm having problems linking this to the Cas-ual Friday's blog challenge and how I can fix this.  It's telling me that it is not a direct link when I'm trying to add my pic.  I've been able to link in the past challenge.  Would really appreciate help, your talking to a computer illiterate here, if you want it to crash I'm the girl for you.   :D   )  and challenge #18 at http://birthdaysundaes.blogspot.com/

Birdie

For challenge #84 http://cricutcardzchallenge.blogspot.com/
 I made with card using Cricut Birthday Bash and Wall Decor and more cartridges.  I used Copic pens on some of the birdie and coloured the eyes black with pen as well since I didn't have any black bling.  For the ballons and the letter "B" I used Brilliance pigment ink to give it a little bit of shimmy.  Embossing on some of the paper ribbon at the bottom to give it some texture as well.

By using the letter "B" made it easy to be either a birthday or a baby card or someone's initial as well.

sundae

Apologies for the blurred images everyone.  Nothing better than having a yummy sundae on a hot summer's day.  For challenge #69 at  http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com/  and challenge # 18 at http://birthdaysundaes.blogspot.com/   Yehhhh I was able to replace the blurred Sundae image.  :D


I use Cricut Birthday Bash to cut out the shapes and use Copic pens once again to colour the image.  I wanted to give a little depth to the sundae so I wouldn't look so flat.  SU stamps, ink, cardstock and ds paper was used to make this card.  Dimensional glue was used on the cherry.

Hi everyone,
Apologies for the blurred image.  Here's a shaped card I did for challenge  #24 at  http://diecuttindivas.blogspot.com/.  I used Cricut Create a Critter cartridge, SU ds paper, punch, brad and a ribbon for the bow.   Just realised why my card was not lining up as well as it was suppose to, when doing the cut out of the shape - reverse one of the images before welding.

surfer

The card says it all I think.  A4 size to fit everything in ofcourse.  Use the Cricut Dude!,  Storybook and Plantin cartridges.  SU ds paper and cardstock was used, Copic pens to colour the surfer and a little glitter on the white foam of the waves and  different embossing for the words.  The Southern Cross stars had to be hand drawn and cut with scissors since they had 7 points. (just incase your interested the 7 points on the star  represented the 7 states of Australia).  This card was entered into the challenger no #82 at http://cricutcardzchallenge.blogspot.com
and at Challenge #67 at http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com
lol and it also fits into the Challenge #15 at http://craftspotbykimberly.blogspot.com/
