Mother's Day with the Cricut

Hi all, I have been missing for a while.  Not much crafting going on here with so many people in an out.  The place I have to craft is my dining room table, so when we have guests I can't really craft.  But my wonderful hubby gave me the best gift for Mother's Day.  He is going to build me a custom craft desk for our loft.  It is his office currently, but he is rarely in there anymore due to offsite work commitments.  I can't wait till it is done!!!
Anyhow, today I have a card I made for his mother.  It is kinda simple just like his mom so I think it came out great.  She really isn't a girly girl so I though blue would be best.


Card Recipe:
  • Card base is from Wrap it Up cut at 5.25"
  • Mom is from Ultimate Creative Sampler cut at 4"
  • Card stock is from DCWV
  • Flourish Cuttlebug folder
 So I am getting back on track with this post.  I have some teacher's gifts and Cinco de Mayo stuff that I did to share with you later in the week.  I hope you all get a chance to express your creative side this week.  Till next time!!!

Mother's Day Card with the Cricut

Hi all.  How is everyone doing.  I am back to crafting again, yeah!!!  I have been working on a couple projects with Mother's day and Teacher Appreciation week approaching.  Today I have a Mother's Day card to share with you.


Card Recipe:

  • Card base is 6" by 6" DCWV Textured paper stack
  • Frame is cut on the Circuit Imagine at 5.5" x 5.5" using RBG code 153, 150, 71
  • Striped paper is DCWV Fabric paper
  • Flowers are cut with the Cricut from Forever Young.  The flower sizes are 1", 1.25", 1.5",1.75" and 2"
  • Pearls are Martha Stewart
  • Stitching is done with We R Memory Keepers Sew Easy and Floss
  • Mom is cut with the Ultimate Creative Sampler cartridge at 1.5"
  • Corner Chomper to round the card edges

I really love this card and can't wait to send it to my Mom.  This was also my first time using the Sew Easy tool and do really love how easy it is to use.  I am entering this card in the weekly challenge over at My Craft Spot.  I will have some more stuff up soon as I finish the projects.  Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a fabulous week.

Cards from the Past

Hey everyone, so for my upcoming posts I thought that I would share some cards that I made this year for Mother's day and Teacher Appreciation Day.  I like to use ribbon on my cards as well as my Cricut to make the borders for labels.  Hope you enjoy these.
