My first try at wall art - it ended up being a bit small for the space
but after climbing the ladder
to the TOP with my bad foot it is going to have to stay small for a while !
Maybe I will begin adding pictures

I was delighted to be a part of Hollys Trial Design Team

2009-01-25T17:50:00.004-05:00

I hope I was able to help Holly with her new stamp design.

I used gel pens for the coloring of the stamp, chalk to color in the heart and SU ink for the BG color. Inside I added sentiment cut from plaintain schoolbook more ink and paper from DCVW.

Be sure to check out Hollys blog here with her wonderful work !

Even More CAD designs

2009-01-25T09:15:00.004-05:00

This card was done on acetate, a simple Valentines Day card. For it I used my new SU stamp stamped directly on the acetate front cover. On the inside of the front cover I added the LOVE cut from Beyond Birthdays matted the inside for a message and added the black ribbon held together with teh Heart shaped paper clip.

This one is a Birthday card for one of our Great Nieces. Cucake printed from Sunshine Graphics and colored with the MPCT. Inside matted and doodled the bear inside is from teh same CD.

January Card a Day Challenge by Jennifer W on the Cricut MB

2009-01-04T20:51:00.004-05:00

I am going to try to keep up with the Card a Day Challenge.

Here are my first four cards. (from the bottom up)

I tried the Acetate card for the first time and although I forgot to add the ribbon before I photo'd the card I was pleased with how it turned out and I am really liking that stamp,

I also attempted the magic color card (tutorial on splitcoaststampers.com) that was a fun one to do and the little kitty was just perfect for my sentiment.

Day 3 was Snow White cut from Storybook and made for a great nieces birthday.

My fourth card was done today, which would have been my brother Jim's 54th birthday, We lost Jim when he was just 19 years old and miss him still. I was feeling a little nostolgic when I made this one and tried to go for the faux linen look. The butterfly represents the fact that death here on earth is just a new begining further than we can fly, and the watch fob lets us know it is only time before we are together again. Happy Birthday Jim - we all love and miss you! Your little sis Kathy

Our Shining Star

2008-12-29T23:40:00.003-05:00

Another card inspired by our son Aaron. January 7, 2009 would have been his 32nd Birthday. We love and miss you Baby!

This one also doubles as my entry into the BBTB Challenge over on Regina's Blog
http://regina-bittenbythebug.blogspot.com/
The challenge was to use the colors Green, Pink Blue and Yellow , a Star and a Cricut cut. The star is my cut from Joys of the Season.

Pennies from Heaven

2008-09-17T15:12:00.004-04:00

I made this card in memory of our Son Aaron who was taken from us on October 31, 1999. Arron had a habit of tossing coins about and now I know why he did. The coins serve as our connection to him and each time I see one no matter where I am I pick it up, look up to the heavens and tell him that I love him too! We miss you son.

2008-08-23T19:37:00.000-04:00

Some all occassion cards for my stash!

Trying my hand at a 'Vintage' look for cards

2008-08-08T13:38:00.002-04:00

I generally make whimsical and childrens cards. I wanted to try a more 'Grown Up" look with some vintage looking cards.

Cricut Design Studio .cut file

2008-07-29T04:25:00.002-04:00

I should get up at 3 AM more often. I saw a card on the Cricut MB that had a store bought card with this design. I thought I would try to re-create it using the Design Studio. Not bad for 3 in the morning ! The finished size is 4 3/4 X 5. I may want to work on the size later when I am really awake.

2008-07-25T03:41:00.002-04:00

I have been working on my coloring and blending techniques, I was pretty happy with the result of these cards. Some of the colors are off because I don't have a lot of pencils but we will work on that!

2008-07-05T20:47:00.000-04:00

I love this bunny, She is an old SU stamp I got years ago. I think she is so cute but I love bunnies!

2008-07-05T15:54:00.000-04:00

Just a little card I made using the prism pencils and goo gone coloring technique.

2008-06-29T21:19:00.001-04:00

2008-06-29T15:00:00.002-04:00

Here are two WaterFAll Birthday cards I made for one of my Great Nieces and Great Nephews. I think they will get a kick out of getting something different.

2008-06-29T14:59:00.001-04:00

This one I made for my Niece Rachel. For no other reason than to remind my sister of how our Mom used to tell us this story abotu the 'Doggie In The Window" and sing us the song. This brought back great memories !

2008-06-29T14:57:00.001-04:00

I love the contrast of the black and white cards. They have such an elegant look to them

2008-06-29T14:54:00.001-04:00

This is one I made - for family again- this was obviously our St. Paddys Day Card - We are a bunch of true Irishmen and the family just loved it!

2008-06-29T14:51:00.001-04:00

Here is an Easter card I did for family - The bunny (I use this bunny alot !) is a stamp I cut out and colored with prism pencils and goo-gone. Sounds like a strange combination but it works very nice

2008-06-29T14:44:00.002-04:00

I have to go double check to see who created the cut file for this card. I added a stamped image in the center and matted it with the yellow and pink ovals cut from a Fiskars template.

2008-06-29T14:40:00.001-04:00

Here is a card I did on Saturday. I was experimenting with the cuttlebug embossing folders and the brayer inking technique. I also used chalk to add the green for the leaves and red for the flowers. There are skittles in the middle of the flowers. I lke how it turned out.
