"Kiss Me" Treat Bags

If you are looking for the "Share the Love" Cricut Crawl click HERE.

Hi Everyone! This is just a quick post to share a super quick treat bag I put together. I couldn't resist the little frog from the Sweethearts cartridge and wanted to use him with this sentiment fom 40:31 Creations Love stamp set.
A little close up for ya!
I did a little inking and added some googly eyes. These were the smallest I had. I really wanted to use 2 different sizes but the next size I had were too big.

Hope you all have a great day! Happy Crafting!

"Share the Love" Cricut Crawl

Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together and the fourth Fantabulous Cricut Crawl...Fantabulous Cricut's version of a blog hop!

Valentine's Day is in a week and everyone at Fantabulous Cricut has decided to Share the Love! Each Design Team member will be featuring an original Valentine-themed project that includes the word LOVE somewhere on it.

If you've come from visiting the super talented Robin at Robin’s Creative Cottage, you're in the right place! If you've just happened across my blog and would like to play along with our Fantabulous Cricut Crawl, start HERE.

Make sure to check out each DT member's blog for some awesome inspiration! There will be PRIZES along the way at some of our DT members' blogs, AND there will be a Grand Prize up for grabs at FCCB for one participant that submits a "Share the Love" project at FCCB!

How fun is that?

For my project I created a banner. I have been wanting to make a banner for quite a while and I thought this was the perfect opportunity.

To make this banner I used the following:
Chipboard i.e. cereal boxes
Cricut Cartriges ~ Birithday Bash, background ~ Country Life, letters, this cartridge doesnt have a shadow feature for the letters so I just off set my letters to give it a shadow effect ~ Sweethearts, cupid and layers
Valentine Buttons
40:31 Creations ~ Love stamps
Patterned cardstock ~ Paper Studio
Colorbox Pigment Ink ~ cranberry
Tulle
Foam tape, Pop Dots, Atg


Now a blog hope is never complete without some type of blog candy, right? Today I am giving away a set of stamps from 40:31 Creations titled New Baby.

These stamps are of high quality and stamp beautifully.

Always & Forever

Happy Saturday, my Crafty Friends!

I feel like I have been away forever. It's been a busy week. I have been crafting but it has been design team stuff so you will have to wait to see that. :)

This morning I finally got around to doing the Peachy Keen Sketch Challenge #44 with a Twist! The twist is that the project needs to be monochromatic. Here is what I designed.
This card is 5 x 5 inches.
Here is what I used:
Cardstock ~ Recollections and DCWV
Cricut Cartridge ~ Sweethearts, cupid and all his layers and I designed a heart border on my Gypsyusing hearts found on this cartridge.
40:31 Creations ~ Love stamps
Ranger Distress Ink ~ Aged Mahogany
Cuttlebug ~ Heart Blocks embossing folder
White Gelly Roll Pen
Foam Tape, Zig, and ATG

It's been raining like crazy here so lighting is not that great for taking pictures. Hope you all are enjoying your weekend.

Happy Crafting!

Heart Shaped Valentine

If you are looking for the Hello Kitty Blog Hop chick HERE.

Good Morning Everyone! Thank you so much for stopping by today. I appreciate all the sweet, sweet comments and support.

Did you know that Emma at My Creative Time has her first Throwback Thursday challenge of the New Year going on right now? If you have never participated in Emma's challenges, you should really give it a try. This weeks's Throwback Thursday challenge is to use any cartridge you would like but you must include a heart in your design. I chose to make a heart shaped card.
Here is what I used to make this card:
Cricut Cartridge ~ Sweethearts
Gypsy ~ I welded 2 of the shadow heart shapes together at the top. I believe I sized these at 5.25 in.
Cardstock ~ Recolections
White and black Gelly Roll Pens
Valentine Ribbon ~ I believe I picked this up at WalMart last year
Foam Tape ~ I popped up the circle shape.

There you have it! It was a pretty quick card to put together. Thanks for stopping by today.

Happy Crafting!
