Challenge #99 edge punch with ribbon

I really like how this card turned out! I actually heat embossed the zebra pattern! It was so easy and a lot of fun! I think I cut the shoes at 2 1/2" but I'm not sure. I used a scallop punch and some red ribbon for this challenge. I also used glossy accents for the heels. Head on over to diecuttindivas.blogspot.com for a fun challenge!

"A Banner Year" cricut cardz challenge #123

I have to say at first I wasn't thrilled about using a banner but I saw so much talent and it inspired me to create what I think is an amazing card! I will  be using more banners in the future! They are fun and really versatile! Head on over to cardztv.blogspot.com for a fun challenge!

I used Straight From The Nest for the banner cut @ 1.25" (pg 65) and used diamond stickles and used foam tape. I cut the letters on the banner @1/2" from the Sophisticated cartridge. I cut the curling iron @ 4" on pg 9 from the Girls Makeup Party cartridge and popped it up on foam tape. I cut the shape behind the curling iron from Elegant Edges @ 3.5" on pg 25. I also used 3 white buttons from favorite findings, light pink and white bakers twine and a Quatre Foil embossing folder(Hobby Lobby).

Out of the Box challenge at Scrappy Moms

I had a lot of fun creating this Valentines box. I was going to use my Tags Bags Boxes and More 2 cartridge but I couldn't get the score lines to match up on my E2, so instead I used the Sweet Tooth Boxes cartridge. I'm glad I used this cartridge because I think it turned out great! Head on over to scrappymoms-stamps.blogspot.com for a fun challenge!

I heat embossed the top of my box with Scrappy Moms and My pink Stamper stamp sets. I also added wired ribbon and made a bow and added some red gems.

For the front of my box I added the heart from Create a Critter 2 and stamped the True Love sentiment also from Scrappy Moms stamps.

For the sides I used the Elegant Edges cartridge and used My Pink Stamper stamps.

And for the back of my box I cut a couple of birds out of some pattern paper I've had for a long time. I used a scalloped punch and stamped on it with Scrappy Moms stamps.

Recipe:
            Red card stock and DCWV Black Currant Stack
            Sweet Tooth Boxes pg 53 cut @ 9.25"
            Elegant Edges pg 25 cut @ 2.25
            Scrappy Moms stamps- Crazy For You
            My Pink Stamper- From The Heart
