Dearest Dad

My Pink Stamper has a super giveaway for father's day. She is giving away a Cricut Expression Machine. How great is that. Here is the card I am putting into the challenge. My husband loved to cook but her still loved me to get his morning coffee for him. This card is made for my son because he also loves to get his morning coffee. I guess he picked it up from Dad. This is a very easy card made with From the Kitchen Cricut cartridge. Enjoy!

Cupcake Birthday

I cut the card at 5 1/2 " so I thought I needed to cut the cupcake at 5 1/2" but I was wrong. It was larger than the card. I then cut it at 3 3/4" and it fit the card muchbetter. I am not sure if all the cuts will be the same on this cartridge so I will have to test some of the cards out and find out myself.
Stamp Set: Crazy for Cupcakes
Paper: chocolate chip, unknown DSP that was given to me.
Ink: chocolate chip
Accessories: cricut,  a child's year cartridge
Thanks for stopping by, Happy stamping,

3x3 Tag





I wanted to share with you the gift tag I made. It turned out really cute. I used the cricut cartridge Create a Critter. I cut this critter and all the layers at 2.5. and the tag is 3x3. I am going to put a hole at the top and add some ribbon to tie onto the package. It is very simple and quick to put together.

Enjoy your weekend and Happy Mother's Day to all mother's everywhere.

Paper: whisper white, night of navy, regal rose, jellybean soup DSP
Ink: black

Just for you Elephant

I love making cute critters. I used the animal kingdom for the elephant and the Plantin Schoolbook for the grass, the background is kraft CS and in the neighbourhood DSP. I added hemp and the face is using the Peachy Keen animal faces. The sentiment is from SU  teeny tiny wishes. This critter is so cute! I am going to send it with a letter to my DGS in Calgary. I sure miss him. I made this critter for the NSD at My Pink Stamper for challenge # 12 Critter-licious. Isn't that a cute name. The challege is to make a scrapbook page or a card using any critter.

Stamp Set: Teeny Tiny Wishes
Paper: kraft. black, going grey, garden green, very vanilla, in the neighbourhood DSP
