i {heart} valentine's day

There is just something special about valentine's day.... It's the one holiday that makes me wish I was in 2nd grade again! I always loved sharing cards with my friends, decorating a mailbox to hold all of my special notes, and, of course, the candy!! This card, that I created for Sketch This, is one I would've loved when I was 8 ;)


I {heart} you

Supplies: Bazzill polka dot cardstock, Scenic Route PP and chipboard sentiment, red velvet ribbon and button are from my stash.

Rick rack, Green and Polka-dots...

...that is the current Card-A-Licious challenge. I decided to play along last night and here's what I came up with:

thanks

Supplies: My Little Shoebox PP, American Crafts felt rick rack, Melissa Frances buttons, Cardstock and elastic are from the craft store and the "thanks" was cut with my Cricut (Don Juan cartridge).

"kitty kitty, meow meow"

...that's what my daughter Claire used to call Hello Kitty. Sadly, she has grown out of calling her that (sigh-she's getting to be such a big girl). At least she still loves Hello Kitty!! And, I have to confess...I have always loved HK too :) So, this new cricut cartridge has become my newest obsession ;)

celebrate!

Supplies: Hello Kitty Cricut cart., Core'dinations CS, Pink Paislee PP, May Arts ribbon, and a button from my stash.

Hope you're enjoying the last little bit of your weekend!

Hello!

Wow! It's been for-ever! I can't believe how much I have been slacking when it comes to card making. I didn't do much over the holidays at all....as far as crafting, that is. I hope you all had wonderful holidays! I know I did...and my scale proves it ;) Seriously, though, I am getting back into the swing of things (including my regular workout schedule...haha) and it feels good! :)

Well, I decided I had to make a card yesterday so I decided to play along with the CPS sketch for this week. I used my brand new Hello Kitty Cricut cart. (I LOVE it) and this is what I came up with:

So Precious

Supplies: AC Cardstock, Pink Paisley PP, Creative Impressions twill ribbon, Cosmo Cricket rub on and Hello Kitty Cricut cart.

I am so excited about this new cartridge. Ever since I saw Lea's strawberry card, I have wanted it. I am thrilled with it...such cute images and the card functions are so fun! So, thanks to Lea for the inspiration!

Happy New Year, crafting friends!
