Snowman & Snowflakes - Snow Angel Cartridge

Reading and catching up on so many Blogs today and actually marking down some challenges to enter into. I actually got 3 different projects done today for a total of 5 challenges! WOOT!!!

It feels so good to be crafting and sharing. The first project I am going to post is a card for challenges going on at My Craft Spot and Fantabulous Cricut. Both of their challenges require Snowflakes and Snowmen. In comes the Cricut Imagine cartridge Snow Angel:

This cartridge has some seriously cute images!!

The recipe for this card is:
Snowman Image from the Snow Angel cartridge (I used the layers feature)
Paper is by Echo Park Wintertime line - I used my cuttlebug snowflake folder to add some dimension, All bundled up sentiment is also the Echo Park Wintertime line with some Karen Foster scrapper spool in cornflower
Ribbon is from Papertrey Ink - Enchanted Evening
I used Diamond stickles, white jelly roll, pop dots and my corner rounder

Hope you like my wintery snowman card!!

Blessings, Jenny

Good Old Days - Imagine Card

Hello Again,
It seems that I need to make a few birthday cards this month. When I saw the Good Old Days cartridge I knew it was a MUST HAVE for me. I <3 Cosmo Cricket and this cartridge was no exception. I used it to make a Birthday card for my fathers wife:

I used the layer feature so that the I could add dimension to this image from The Good Old days cartridge. The background paper is from a DCWV stack and was in my scrap pile. I used lots of crystal stickles (sorry for the smudging), memento ink in black, corner rounder, white jelly roll for some dots in the corners, the mustard ribbon is from stampin up and the sentiment is from MPS Sweetest Cupcake set and of course pop dots for the birthday cake.

Blessings,

Greeting Farm Digi Birthday Card

Hi Friends,
I hope you all know I do consider you friends! I so appreciate you checking out my Blog and when you comment it just makes my day -- you know what I mean!!

My daughter turns 25 today - seriously where did that come from. I am SO not old enough to have a 25 yr. old. Believe me when I say we have had our good times and our bad but I have to say I do love the woman she is becoming. She has a full time job and is going back to school so I am sure she has a great future ahead of her. I sure do love her!!

She requested an orange cake and I am taking her to see Mama Mia on Broadway in Chicago. The last few years we have done this as her gift and just time together a great show (we have seen Jersey Boys and Wicked) and delicious dinner, usually Cheesecake Factory -- YUM!!!!!

I put together this card for her using a digi from The Greeting Farm called Chibi Cupcakes:

I colored this cutie with Prisma pencils and Sakura Jelly rolls to give it some sparkle, and I pop dotted her up. The background paper is from a DCWV stack, I used an EK success punch and some brown ribbon from my stash. The 25 is from a thickers pack.

The inside:

The sentiment is from My Pink Stamper Sweetest Cupcake set stamped with Rich Cocoa memento ink.

Here is my beautiful daughter Amanda:

Blessings Friends and enjoy your day,
Jenny

Classroom Valentines for 2012

Hello Beautiful Friends,

I was not planning to make my sons classroom Valentines this year but when I asked him if we could buy them he was not with the program. Well, I was looking through a scrapbooking magazine and I got an idea for something that was not too hard - I showed him the picture and he liked them so off to work I went.

I used my Imagine and the new cartridge Notebook Doodles and printed out some paper. Well, this is the first time I have used my Imagine for this and it was EASY. Why do I get so scared to try these new things? I have to have all the 'NEW' cartridges, machines and such and then they just sit there like a prized collection when they should be used. Well, that is a goal for this year -- USE MORE -- BUY LESS!!

I also used the Lacy Labels cartridge for the shape of the Valentine and the Bump In the Night cartridge for my little creature. I used a 5x7 cuttlebug folder to add dimension to the creature, pop dots to adhere him and of course a GIANT google eye. I used 2 different stamps for the back of the Valentine. The Let's Monster Mash saying is from Pink by Design A Haunting We Will go set, the second set I used was from Recollections called Celebrate Spring.

Well, my son loved them so I am glad that I did make them for him.

Blessings All - I am hoping to work on some layouts today,
Jenny

Merry Christmas!!

May all your Crafty wishes be a Blessing to you on this Christmas!!

Glass Blocks with More Vinyl

Hello Again,
I made these glass blocks for my son's football banquet (I also made 40 little treats for some friends and several gift card holders that I FORGOT to take pictures of - sheesh!!)

The vinyl was cut using my E2 and the cricut decals cartridge that was pre- loaded. The '30' was cut using the Cricut Lite cartridge Varsity Letter. Inside I used Metallic crinkle.  These were really fun to make and they looked great on the check in table.

Blessings, Jenny

Heat Transfer Vinyl

Hello Again,
Wanted to share a shirt I had made for my hubby with some Heat Transfer Vinyl (from H & H sign supply). He told me exactly how he wanted this laid out and then when he wore it a few other coaches asked me to make them one too! FUN!!

Have a Blessed Day!!
Jenny
