I Love You Card


I love this quick card I made for Valentine's Day and am just getting around to sharing it.  To make the "love" pop, I backed it with pink paper.  But, I think an I love you card is perfect for any time of year, and this one was so quick to make!  This is made with Everyday Simple Cards on my Cricut.

For my day two project, I used the CTMH Art Philosophy Cartridge and Cricut Craft Room software to weld the heart together to form a card. I also had to hide the cut outs for the back side of the card, as this image had no black out on the cartridge. I stretched the heart before I copied and welded, it to make it long enough for my image from Kenny K. The Kenny K. image is called Harleyryder, and I colored it using the following Copic colors:
E00 Skin White, R20 Blush, E13 Light Suntan, E0000 Floral White (Penny's skin)
R29 Lipstick Red R 27 Cadmium Red, E0000 Floral White (Penny's Outfit)
E29 Burnt Umber, E49 Dark Brown, 100 Black, C7 Cool Grey
I fussy cut around the Harleyryder. I then used stickers by k i Memories. Oh, these have been in the stash forever. But here's my trick to make them new again...just make small snips in one end to make the rectangular stickers look like banners! I added a bit of the bakers twine and my card is almost done. On the inside I took a quote from the same k i memories set, that says, "Grow old with me, the best is yet to come. -Robert Browning"
I'm also going to enter this card into the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge blogs challenge #97: use a heart from a Cricut Cartridge. Your next stop on the hop is Haidee's blog HERE.

Wild About You Wall Decor



Sometimes it's great to scrap something that you can display on the wall and include all sorts of bulky embellishments and goodies! I just finished up this page which I
will hang on the wall and had a lot of fun with it!
I started by making my rolled roses. Both roses were made with paper printed on my Cricut Imagine. The large rose was cut with the CTMH Art Philosophy Cartridge and the small rose with My Favorite things mini rolled rose die. I made another mini rolled rose with the same die out of felt in hot pink and inked the edges in red to give it some depth.
The base page is The Robin's Nest Lobster paper. I actually wanted a Valentine's day paper and thought that the lobsters look like lips! On that I added The Robin's Nest Animal stripe paper. I used the Martha Stewart Loop Border punch on The Robin's Nest Red Paisley paper to make a border stripe at the bottom of the zebra mat. I also used the Robin's Nest Velvet Ribbon at the top of the white stripe at the bottom. And can you see the quote? It says, "There's no place I'd rather be, than with you." Isn't it perfect for a Valentine's day page or card?! It's from the Robin's Nest Time Flies Rubon. v
I also used the small swirl by the small rose from this rubon set. For the large rubon, I used The Robin's Nest Viva la France rubon.The leaves near the large rose are Creative Memories punch and near the small rose the EK Success Dahlia Border punch was used. I added some of The Robin's Nest Dew Drops after Still and in the center of my roses. I am just crazy for the Fairy Dust Dew drops. The pearlized silver ones are so fab!
