Here are my cards :)

eye <3 U

I got the idea for this card by someone who posted their card on Pinterest. I love Pinterest!!! If you haven't checked out Pinterest, you need to! Leave me your email address and tell me you want me to send you an invite.

Inside

I used my Gypsy so that it would be easy for me to cut the circle. I first selected the card I wanted and then I selected the monster. I placed the monster where I wanted it and then I placed the circle. I then deleted the monster and made my cut.

Materials Used

Cricut Cartridges: Mini Monsters & Wild Card

Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Ink Worn Lipstick

Stamp: Love Always by Pink by Design

Paper: Valentine's paper from Target's $1 section :)

Winnie the Pooh and Friends

Mini Tutorial

I cut my heart cards using the Wild Card cartridge and used distress inks around it.

I love the Disney cartridges, but it takes forever to make all of the cuts and glue them together.

I used Action Wobbles.

Wobble in action!

Can you see the Action Wobble?

Materials Used

Cricut Cartridges: Pooh and Friends (Pooh, Tigger, and Eeyore cut at 3 inches and Piglet cut at 4 inches)

                            Wild Card (heart card cut at 4 ¾ inches)

Ink: Tim Holtz Worn Lipstick and Dusty Concord Distress Ink

Stamp: Love Always by Pink by Design

And now for a GIVEAWAY!!!

I hope you survived this long post!!! I am giving away one of my Cricut Vinyl Figures and 5 Action Wobbles. When I ordered some vinyl figures, I got two of the plum ones. When you order these online, you don't get to pick which colors you want, but I got lucky because this was the only double I got.

How can you WIN?

Just leave a comment and check back on Tuesday, February 7th to see if you WON.

You don't need to be a follower, but I would love it if you were.

This is my collection :) I haven't seen the other colors out yet. My favorite one is the Pink one of course!!!

Peachy Keen Stamps Sketch Challenge #53: Take it easy.

I enjoyed creating a card for the sketch challenge over at Peachy Keen Stamps blog, that I had to do another challenge. I was so excited to use my new Peachy Keen stamps that I purchased last week. I fell in love with the stamps and can’t wait to buy some more.

Sketch Challenge with a TWIST

• Create a card based on the layout AND twist provided (Peachy Keen Stamps are not required for this challenge, but if you got 'em, we always love to see what you create with them!)

• Project must include basic elements from provided sketch & a sponging technique
  

While typing up this post, I realized that I didn’t add the sponging technique to my card. I had never tried using the technique, but I liked it. As you can tell, I need practice :)

My card before adding the technique...

I think that adding the sponge technique made it look a little better.

You can’t really tell, but I added an Action Wobble to the card. First time using them and I love how the octopus wobbles.

Cricut Cartridges: Birthday Bash (octopus), elegant cake art (circle design behind the octopus), Elegant Cakes (accent), and Tags, Bags, Boxes & More (tag).

Stamps: Peachy Keen Stamps~Critter Faces (size medium) and My Pink Stamper~More Punny-licious.

Ink: Broken China Distress Ink by Tim Holtz
