Easter 2010 Easter basket. a basket full of eggs!

Isn't this just an adorable Easter egg basket!!  My friend Stacy made this while we were at our Cricut Swarm.  I had stickles on hand and talked her into using them on the Easter eggs.  She is new to "Cricutting"...    She has this hanging up on her fireplace. it looks awesome!!  Made on her Expression at fit to page.

you give me butteflies....

besides a little bling for this cute beautiful is that it's 3D and sparkling with Star Dust from Stickles.

 My granddaughter Madison loves butterflies (a girl after her grandmas's (that's me :) ) heart.  I love butterflies too!!  She is going to be hanging this up in her room.  We aren't even done yet.  I think were going to be making lots of these cute 3D butterflies in various sizes!!

It actually looks cuter in person that it does here.  copper stickles is on the "give me" &  Glam pink Stickles is on the rest and really looks cute.   Straight from the Nest cricut cartridge is used on the expression and Gypsy.  Close to My Heart cardstock is used. (all 3 colors)  but to lazy to get up. :0.....   Notice above the "i" in butterflies. we put a large bling from ctmh there too.

See where the "give me" is smeared from the above pic.  looks so much cuter now!

Superman

This is the back of the door hanger.  I doubled the letters on the word ROOM.  They are the fonts on this cartridge.

This is the card from this cartridge.  the words go along with it as layers detail 2.  If you have seen this cartridge already.. you know a superman is on the front.  i did cut it out but lo' and behold...  it tore and therefore running out of time  -I excluded it from the card.

I used the Superman cartridge.  This is the door hanger and the words that go along with the door hanger.  I added the font on this cartridge for his name.  The superman symbol is from the layers on the card.

I loved creating this dinosaur from Create a Critter cut at 2.80w & 2.68 h.  It is so easy to create on my gypsy since I had been working on creating this card for a few days.  Other items used:  *Gypsy wanderings used for the frame that Dino sits on and then embossed using the Cracked embossing folder from Tim Holtz from Sizzix.    ** Cuttlebug set of Animal prints was used to emboss the tail and the top body of the dinosaur.  I used peachy Keen stamps from critter faces set A med.  ** I also used cardstock from Ctmh: kiwi (deleted now) , orange and clover meadow.  Bamboo Ink from ctmh used on the edging of card.  I love inking around edges!!    ** the twine is also from CTMH.  ** oops.. fogot which cartridge the leaves came from..  My gypsy is not near me (how dare I .. lol)  **  The saying on the outside of the card is one my hubby thought of when I told him I was making a birthday card..  Cute huh!!     ** the inside of the card saying is from CTMH D1111 card sentiments.   I hope you have enjoyed this card.  It is for a card swap with our Swarm ladies.

LOVE this card...  so bright & cherry... to brighten anyone's day! 

**Cherry Limeade cartridge.  I cut the glass at 3.25w & 3.50h.  Gypsy and Cricut Expressions used. 

Card stock & ink is from CTMH - kiwi & sunny yellow (ink) sunny yellow & citrus leaf (CS).   random left over patterned paper on cup is from??... 

**Provo Craft Cricut embossing folder used from Cricut Preserves, aren't these lemons cute.  I sanded the lemons with the sandpaper from CTMH and then touched it up a little with sunny yellow ink.  I used the Mini pop dots by All Night Media the 1/4th size for popping up the small lemon piece on the cup.

**Speaking of the lemon slice...  I "painted" the lemon using the Smooch color Sundance. - doesn't it look yummy.    The lemon was cut from a few extra papers of the embossing folder and then cut out the larger lemons.  

**The saying I used on white cardstock from my computer font (windows 7)... Alan font at size 18.  My hubby came up with this saying.....  cool huh??!!

** The straw is actually embossed- from Provo Craft embossing folders Herringbone

I hope you like this.  I made this awesome cute card for my Cricut Design Chicks Swarm ladies.  I have another card coming soon...  so.. until then  :)

Rock Princess peace..

Rock Princess Cricut cartridge used.. Close to my heart heavenly blue, cocoa and white card-stock and ink were used.   Page to Fit on my Cricut expressions was 11inches.   I planned the letters for happy birthday and Kiana on my Gypsy using the Rock Princess cartridge as well. Inside the letters of p,a,r, etc.. you get an extra cut out of an heart. (great for future use)  I made a template of the banner on my gypsy at 11inches and fit the letters so they fit nicely.   On the Cricut Rock princess overlay..  I picked #30.  Kiana wanted the peace Sign for her birthday.

oops... I had an extra piece covering the "a".. sorry :)

#9 kiana birthday age

graphically speaking cartridge.  I put this on my gypsy and slanted it on the 12x12 screen to get the most of the size to hang up on the wall.   I then took my Smooches and my stickles and a few of the close to my heart markers and went on a decorating bin of various colors....  This was fun!!   I used the cocoa and heavenly blue card stock from Close to My heart for the background.

Matthew 25:40 verse 12x24 vinyl saying on our church wall....

Plantin School book cricut cartridge was used.  I also used the 12x24 mat with black vinyl.

Me..  hanging up this verse on the wall.  I had a hard time being that far up, feeling nervous and then to peel the transfer tape off.
