I made this layout for a picture I took with my mom and sister a few days ago. I'm developing the picture in black and white in size 5x7. I used my new lace stamp to make the background (which I love). I used stamps from Papertrey Ink (Movers & Shakers stamps) for the "15" and Close To My Heart (Moments in Time) for the month and year on my date tag. The embossed sentiment at the bottom is from My Creative Time. I added some light pink tulle and flowers with brads in the center. I like the way this layout turned out.<br />

You need to include water on your summer themed project. I embossed the sentiment and I added black Glossy Accents to the flamingo's eye to give it dimension. I love the simple less is more look of this card. It reminds me of a Smash book or Project Life creation.<br />

I used a zipper die from Papertrey Ink that once the zipper is pulled off will reveal a hidden sentiment. I cut the flowers out of felt with the My Creative Time flower dies. I punched the butterfly out of vellum with a Martha butterfly punch. I decided the bottom was too bare, so I added some pearls with a Viva Decor Pen. I like how this card turned out.<br />

I know its been a while since I posted something. I've had a lot going on lately. Anyways, I'm just glad I was able to craft today and get some therapy out of it- LOL.<br />
<br />
I made this card to enter into the Make It Monday Challenge #79 Fabric Die Cut at <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2012/08/make-it-monday-79.html" target="_blank">Capture the Moment</a> (Papertrey Ink). There is a card inspiration for the challenge and a requirement to use a die cut made of fabric. I cut a 3 layer flower with felt using a My Creative Time flower die. The sentiment is by Papertrey Ink and is from the Movers and Shakers stamp set. I like the way the card turned out. I was not sure about the colors together initially, but I like it.<br />
<br />
Here is my inspiration:<br />

Here is the card she made. She is very big on Hello Kitty and this card is similar to one she previously made. This one features a ticket edge card base and a popped up flower. She loves pop dots, so I let her use all my cheapy ones from the $1 store that I do not prefer to use on my projects. Thanks for stopping by. She is really enjoying all the sweet comments, who knew how good that would make her feel :0) .<br />

I knew I wanted to make a tag and watercolor it with my Close To My Heart Ink Pads, but that is all I know I wanted to do. Once I was finished with the tag everything else fell into place. I really like the effect of watercolors, whether you use real watercolor paint, watercolor pencils or the ink from the lid of your ink pad. The neat shaped tag is cut at 4" from the new Cricut Artiste Cartridge. The flower stamped I used is from Close To My Heart and the sentiment and white embossing powder are from Papertrey Ink. The ric rac ribbon can be found for a $1 at Michaels. I used white embroidery floss to stitch on the pocket.<br />

My daughter was super excited when I told her about a challenge just for kids. I let her use my scraps to create cards or layout when she wants and she really like when I mess up and cut extra images or images that are too big or small with my Cricut, because she know I will give them to her. She does not have her own blog, so I'm posting it here for her. Here<span style="background-color: white;"> is a card she created:</span><br />

Can you believe I made a Christmas card in July? Hahaha. I cut the flower out with a scrap of felt using the My Creative Times flower dies. The card base is 5". I used some glittery red embossing powder for the sentiment.<br />

Its been a few days since I've been able to make something and post it. Today I got my new Close To My Heart Cricut Artiste cartridge and of course put everything on hold to play with it. I decided to cut something floral and used one of the flowers and stems on the cartridge to go with a color challenge at Papertrey Ink. I used a Papertrey Ink stamp from the Movers and Shakers set. I used CTMH Sorbet colored ink on the sentiment. I jazzed up the flowers with some buttons in my stash. I like the clean feel of this card and I think the colors came together great.<br />
<br />
Here is the color challenge:<br />

I have some excited news to share. Close To My Heart has come out with another exclusive Cricut cartridge called Artiste and it comes with 3 stamp set and 3 sets of chipboard elements. This cartridges is loaded with a font, several cupcake liners, many 3D boxes, bags, envelopes, cards, banners, seasonal themes and so much more. I've been playing with this cartridge and I am in love with this CTMH cartridge too. This is rivaling the first CTMH cartridge called Art Philosophy for 1st place in my heart. Below are some pics of the Artiste bundle, booklet, CTMH Idea Book and other specials. Be sure to check back on my blog for some upcoming projects made with this new cartridge.</div>

I seen this idea in a scrapbook magazine and new I had to make one for myself. </span><br />
<br />
My butterflies are cute at 1.5" from Cricut Art Philosophy. There are two butterflies on the cartridge, this one is #35. The brown background paper under the butterflies was embossed with a wood grain folder and inked for texture and dimension. Some of the butterflies I colored with Faber-Castell pencils and then went over them with a water brush. After doing so, they get a water color effect--LOVE it. I will be found these in one of my shelves...I forgot I ever even bought them. Boy, the treasures I find around here sometimes. LOL. I used a Close To My Heart stamp called Take A Picture #C1440 and embossed it with white embossing powder. The green scallop border was welded and created on my Gypsy. The pretty teal and white polka dot paper is from the Dotty For You CTMH paper pack.<br />

<span style="background-color: white;">Ok, here is the last of my 4th of July, Firework, Patriotic, etc. projects for the year. I was not really sure where I was going with this card, then I started getting one idea after the next. The zigzag circle was cut from Cricut Art Philosophy at 3". I braided red, white and blue embroidery floss and looped it around my card and made a starburst in the same colors and tie it together on my braid. I used stickers and CTMH stamps to create my sentiment. The stamped image is from Close To My Heart and I colored it with Copic Markers and added some glitter gel pen to make it sparkle.</span><br />
<br />
My card is based on this sketch:<br />

I turned out pretty cute. The shape is cut from Doodlecharms. I added some black Glossy Accents to the seeds. The sentiment is from Close to My Heart.<br />

<br />
I made this super cute shirt for the summer time Vacation Bible School (VBS) at my church. I had so much fun making this shirt. I cut all the lettering with my Cricut machine using some iron on glitter paper. I cut out an airplain from B is For Boy out of freezer paper and used it as a stencil on my shirt. I hand painted airplain inside the stencil and the word SKY.<br />

I didn't have the right type of yellow paint so I didn't make the plain the exact color like the logo on the paper as I intended to, my yellow was transparent so I couldn't paint it on. But after I painted it with orange I just squeezed out a glob of yellow so it would be a thick solid looking yellow color.<span style="background-color: white;"> </span></div>

<br />
With 4th of July around the corner, I decided to make a layout for our 2012 family scrapbook instead of making a card. The tags will hold a 4 1/2" x 2 3/4" photo. They were cut from the Art Philosophy cartridge, inked with white chalk ink and I added a white wide eyelet and ribbon. The word "Freedom" was cut from Independence Day as was the "4th of July, but I used my Cricut markers to write it instead of cutting it. I then trimmed around it and and added a shadow by trimming a second color behind it. I added some Stickles, Glitter pen, and markers to the writing. This layout seems a little busy to me in colors in patterns, but its my "fireworks" layout, so that's what you get I guess. LOL.<br />

I needed some white wide eyelets...had none, so I used white embossing powder to cover them white. I first use a white paint marker which works, but was taking too long to dry (and I am impatient when putting a layout together) so I wiped it off and use embossing powder. Worked pretty good...but when you squeeze in your CAD it can chip the paint/embossing powder. You've been warned. Hehehe!</div>

I used the Papertrey Ink Movers and Shakers Sentiments on my cards. And some green and yellow paper and inks I had in my stash. I also inked my ribbon yellow, since I only had this style ribbon in white. I used some CTMH stamps to make my background paper. I made two cards for this challenge.
