bridal shower, wedding and cake top

hello again, I decided to match the everything this time,

the flowers are called Gerber daisy's  these flowers are a lot bigger than what I thought they would be and yet it still took 7 of they in this small pot, It will go on top of a sheet cake for the shower.

more note cards...graphically speaking

boy or girl, I am ready

Hello again,  when I made these cards I only had one baby in mind then an announcement over Christmas that I know of two 2016 babies, I also found out today the the pink one will be for the baby shower coming up.   I used the negative for these....

for Elliana's 5th bd

Daisy is so cute!!! and I believe Elli will think so too.

thank you card

I  used us some of my scraps for this card and use 2 cartridges that I have not use in some time. Don Juan and graphically speaking.    color is what I needed for this card since it is still sooooo, white outside.

Kiem baby card

Good morning to all, It is snowing in central WI this morning,  had to warn my daughter of the "it is slippery out and people are not used to snow on the ground, so slow down"  I think it went in one ear and out the other....
this is for a friends new baby and I always send something for the other so they do not feel left out,

                you counted right!   and baby makes 6

thinking of you

Good morning to all, or maybe I should say very foggy out today!!!
I have been wanting to make this card since I first saw it 3 years ago on Kelly's blog,  but I did not have my design studio at that point and when I did have it, I just could not get it to weld properly .....until now... I found this on pinterst, pined it and forgot about it, until  a few days ago I was looking through boards and saw an interesting picture that said   my cricut font list, updated monthly...even though I don't have many font cartridges I clicked on it anyway.....and happy I did ...the front page said  cricut lovers guide to design studio..
Design Studio Tutorials   you will find it here.......

Now for Kelly's card....you will find it here...

one diamond at a time.....saved it for next time!!!

My craft spot challenge # 69

good morning to all, and a chilly start to the day. Last night we had a  strong cold front come through. I thought we were in a tornado, it hit so hard and fast even took the power out for about 2 hours. Thank goodness for the generator, the guys were able to finish milking, I remember when we didn't have a generator.... those poor cows had to wait with a full bag until the power went back on, sometimes hours and then we had to finish no matter how late it was....
this is for my craft spot

This Week's Challenge:  Wild about you

(include a wild animal somewhere on your project) 

this little guy is to cute to be wild, and I also put it on a wobble,  will be going to one of the grandkids for Christmas.....

 

Mojo Monday # 253

Hi all, yesterday in Church I found out that  a lovely lady, who always has a warm greeting for anyone, any time, had surgery on some brain tumors  (not the first time) is recovering in the hospital and Pastor had talked to her the night before and her spirits are good.
I thought what ever the MJM sketch would be, I would make a get well card for her, I love the way the bow looks like a butterfly....

            I have plenty of birthdays coming up.....

mojo #234

Hi all, I know I did it again, take the sketch the distance, hope you like it!!!
I added all of those tiny pearls around the edges and  they are hardly seen....oh well...and pop dotted the center square

Monday Challenge #46 - Make us laugh!

This weeks Challenge:  Make us Laugh!

(but keep it clean!!)

My B-I-L  turns 55 this year and I thought of a burning cake...this is what I came up with..

 

 

father's day

WARNING:::: MY DAUGHTER NOW HAS HER TEMPS!!!!
she needs to learn to listen, and that running into her dads work table while parking car into garage is not okay!!! I guess this means more grey hair for me. her dad can take her out next time!!!
Hi all, For my husband I made this FD card, thank goodness for my DS. size for this car would have been a lot of guess work. I found this idea at      paper in the works   blogger, Kim has beautiful cards with lots of layers, sewing and she colors hers with markers where I use my cricut.
the only inking I did, was on the car and tan paper

                                                        the inside

cards base is 5 1/4 square
red   5 1/8 sq
blue   5" sq
4 3/4  sq stripe and dot cut into triangles
white   4 1/4 x 2 3/4
blue 4 1/8 x 2 5/8
tan   4 x 2 1/2  (white inside)
car at 2"
I like to add sizes for my own personal reference so I don't have to start over if I make a again...
you are more than welcome to use if you would like.
I cut all of the cuts above with my fiskars  rotary cutter. another thing I would be lost without!!
thanks for looking,
Carol<><

celebrate card

I had made 2 butterflies because I didn't know which one I wanted for the anniversary card I had made, she does not like red but I thought it looked better on the card, this card will be put away til needed, there is always something to celebrate out there, thanks for looking.

anniversary card for the in-laws

this card came together nicely for me... the paper does most of the work and I wanted the GS butterfly..
 I also discovered that I have to measure and cut a different size sentiment for each card because they do not line up the same..
flat pearls, inking, twisted easel

mojo monday # 175

Hello to all, Mojo Monday  came so quick this week that it took awhile to make this card.... so I made 2 while I was at it, one for a lady a church who will be having surgery soon and the other for my stash, I have been running low..... 
I used graphically speaking for the flower and Heritage for the swirl,
