Flower Cake Card/ Sweet Treats series #6




Hi Paper Lovers....


Here is card #6 in my Sweet Treats series and its a cake with flowers!!! So unlike me, I know ;)
I am going to try to do something DIFFERENT for my next card....I have had some suggestions to make a card with the ice cream....so I will try that next time!!! The reason I wanted to make ANOTHER cake card was I wanted to enter this in Mary's challenge blog http://cricutcardzchallenge.blogspot.com/ AND I needed a birthday card....so here it is!!! I hope you like it. Here are the sizes......

The Cake is from pg 38 and it is cut @ 3.59 using the Blackout feature.
The Flowers are from pg 51 and 8 of them are cut @ .81 and 1 of them is cut @ 1.24.
The Pedistal is from pg 42 and it is cut @ 2.18 using the Blackout feature.
*I made this card in my Gypsy....so they are Gypsy sizes!

Below is my YouTube video of how I put the card together....

Thanks for stopping by today and have a blessed day!!!

Its A Party/ Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge



Hi Paper Lovers....

I took a little break from my Sweet Treats series.....GASP, I know!!!! I have been wanting to participate in one of Emma's Throwback Thursday challenges because it challenges us to pull out an "old" cartridge and have fun with it again AND.... because she gives away AWESOME stamp sets as prizes =)

So this week's challenge was Zooballoo, or to use an Animal Theme. I got Zoobaloo with Cricut reward points and have never used it.....so this one was a perfect one for me to enter. I have Emma's My Creative Time blog button on the right hand side of my blog if you would like to check her out.....she has SO much talent. I just love her Gypsy creations!!!

I used DCWV's Nana's Kids stack for this card....such ADORABLE paper!!!!!! I also used some hemp cord and some buttons....super simple!!!
I also posted project #5 in my Sweet Treats series today, under this post, if you would like to check it out, thanks!!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!!!

Here is project #3 in the series and it is a SIMPLE card I made using Sweet Treats. I did one layered firework and one with glitter on it. The glitter one is soooo sparkley but soooo messy. Glitter and I just dont get along until it is glued down...then I LOVE it =) I used a couple ideas for this card from my friends Mary http://cardztv.blogspot.com/ and MOMO http://madebymomo.blogspot.com/ thanks ladies for the inspiration!!!


Hope everyone has a GREAT holiday weekend....nothing planned for us...hubby has to work =(
