Ooey Gooey Pumpkin Guts

I know it is spring and we are supposed to be making flowers, not jack-o-lanterns, but the mood struck me to do some scrapbooking from fall.  Maybe it is the lack of pollen in the fall, I don't know, but I just finished this layout a little bit ago. 

I used Don Jaun for the font and Pumpkin Carving for the faces.  The paper is DCWV Autumn splendor.

Here is a close up of the left side.



I know, the  pictures aren't the greatest, but it is late and I am tired! I didn't realize they were that bad until I had them loaded already!

Anyway, Thanks for looking and have a great weekend.

Thinking of you Card


 My apologies this digi stamp is from Squigglefly digital stamps.  I am so sorry for causing any confusion.


 I made this card in a flash with the help of the digi and my Imagine.  I used the Blossom cartridge for the yellow paper with the flowers and cut out one of the original shapes that is on the machine.  I used my big shot to emboss the pink paper and used white chalk ink to ink it just a little to make it pop.  The flowers have gem brads in the center. 

I have entered this card in the following challenges
Do you Stack up - Shine on
Pile it on - Bling
Whoopsie Daisy - Easter Colors
Sugar Creek Hollow- anything goes
Paper Cutz Challenge- anything goes
Teddy Stampers-embossing
Your next stamp- sparkle
One stop Craft Challenge - diamonds are....
Stampin with the Dragon- spring



Thanks for looking and have a scrap-tastic day!

Last 2 cards for the Circle Challenges

The first challenge I worked on was "Wet and Wild" and we had to use a "wet" project.  For mine I used stickles. I made a Hello Kitty Card for a special little girl who I hope will be surprised!

The card is cut from Hello Kitty Greetings and her clothes were printed with the Imagine More Cards cartrige.


The second challenge was to use a frame in your project. I made a thinking of you card using only the Imagine Better Together cartridge.  It is such a cool cartridge!

Thank you Card and gift set

I made this gift set for a friend of our family that has done a lot for us lately.  I used a Penny Black stamp for the card, which I left blank for a personal note.
I  think the patterned paper is a DCWV I colored the stamp with my Prisma colors.

I also made this note card holder with the note cards, thanks to the tutorial on the Cricut Circle MB. I used the same papers and the monogram cuts are from gypsy font.
