Bunny Hop

If you just came from Erica's blog, I am your next stop. Today is the day for this wonderful Bunny Hop for Operation Write Home. I have created a peek-a-boo card and I learned how to do one by watching this video. This is one of the easiest cards I have ever made and I had so much fun making it. I hope you enjoy!
I used the Create a Critter cartridge for the bunny & carrot and My Community cartridge for the basket. The sentiment is from the stamp line, My Pink Stamper.

We were asked to make a spring card and here is mine :)
Continue Hopping over to Sherrie who used some lovely stamps on her cards or you can go back to the beginning of the hop Stars and Stamps.

1st Blog Hop

I am so excited because I will be participating in my very first Blog Hop! It’s called the Bunny Hop and it’s for the program Operation Write Home. The blog starts on Saturday, March 5th at 7 a.m. PST.
Anyone can participate in the Operation Write Home program. All you have to do is create handmade greeting cards and those cards are sent out to the soldiers to write on and they send them back to their family. I love the idea of them being able to have access to handmade cards, it makes writing to their family a lot easier. If you would like more information about the program, check out their website.

Hope you come and visit my blog on Saturday!

Yay for March!

I am so glad that February is over with! I had so many projects due that month and I barely caught up with all my sleep. Today I started my first day in a Kindergarten class. I am going to be in that class for a whole month and I have to teach a few lessons. I am really excited because I love my class and I can’t wait to learn from them.
This week I helped my friend make 90+ post cards for her students that she had during her student teaching. She asked her students which animal was their favorite and these kids all loved a different animal, so good thing I had most of the cartridges that have animals. It took a long time, but she said that kids loved them, so it was worth it. I forgot to take pictures :(
Check out the awesome gift my circle pal gave me. I have been wanting the sew easy since when it first came out. I can’t wait to use it!

Valentines

Happy Valentine's Day!!!
These are some of the Valentine's Day cards I made for my family.
I made this card for my sister because I love the stamp I used. The stamp came from My Pink Stamper’s Punny-licious stamp set. The owl is from the Cindy Loo cartridge and I chose that owl because it was easy to use pop dots to pop up every layer.
I made this card for my circle pal using the Hannah Montana cartridge. I printed out the saying from my printer.
I made this card for My Pinkalicious Blog Hop Friday and the challenge was to use the color black with your favorite color or colors. I used the Create a Critter cartridge for the lion and the Love-alicious stamp set from My Pink Stamper. I also used pop dots to pop up the lion's mane.
I made this card for my mother because she loves elephants and John Lennon, so it was a perfect match. I keep falling more and more in love with Robyn’s stamps and can’t wait to order her new ones. I used the Paisley cartridge and My Pink Stamper’s Love-alicious stamp set. I popped up one ear and the envelope using pop dots.

Cricut Circle January's Monthly Challenge

The challenge was to scraplift a circle blog project and I scraplifted Jane Eubank’s Trick-or-Treat banner idea. I was also supposed to use 2 products from their sponsors and I used Bazzil cardstock and some of Imaginisce’s bling. I used Mini Monograms for the circles, Once Upon a Princess for the font, and Hannah Montana for the crown, diamond, lips, and stars.
