More than Favors~Wacky Wednesday

For the Cricut Cartridge Chaos Challenge Please Click HERE

Hello Crafty Friends,

This week at More Than Favors, Paula has challenged us with a Color Challenge. The color challenge is Blue, White, and Yellow! Talk about a Challenge!!!

For my project, I created a simple card using paper rosettes. Of course I made them using the challenge colors. We all do not like making sympathy cards, but every once in a while we must. This is an idea on how to make one, that is simple but yet elegant.

Recipe:

Cosmo Cricut Paper

Anna Griffith Paper

Recollections Plain Cardstock

Kraft Cardstock

Scrappy Moms Sentiments " Everday Greetings"

Paper is cut at 1 1/2 x 12

Scored at ever quarter of an inch on a Martha Stewart Score Board

Mountain Valley fold and cut the valley off on the last score. Glue together and press down till it forms a rosette. Hot Glue Rosette to a small square and add glue to the center. Finish off Rosette with a button and twine or whatever embellishment you wish. One of these days Ill actually do video's. :)

Have a Great Day!

Circle Blog Monthly Challenge!

For the Cricut Cartridge Chaos "Create a Critter" Please Click HERE

Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Or Good Evening my Crafty Friends!

I thought I better hurry up and get my Monthly Circle Blog Challenge entry in. The Challenge this month was to scraplift a project off of the Circle Blog. You have to use two Cricut cuts, Use a project you have seen on the Circle Blog for your inspiration, and Use products from at least two of the Circle Blog Sponsers.

I saw a cute Yourstory Photo project for a recipe book, I took that idea and made a card out of it, Using Imagine cartridge "Kates Kitchen". For my two sponsers I chose "Cosmo Cricut" for the paper which is from "Material Girl". And used my I-Rock and gems from Imaginisce. I also used a cute sentiment from Scrappy Mom's Stamps " A Pinch & A Dash" stamp set. The felt flowers are from Prima, and the bow is Martha Stewart.

Here is my version of the Yourstory Photo project on a card!

Hearts and Crafts,
