My Pink Stamper Challenge #8

The My Pink Stamper NSD Challenge #8 is a summer themed project. I was so glad to be able to work on this project. I just bought beach towels at Marshalls on Thursday to give to my sons teachers for the end of the year gift. I was trying to think of what to put with them. I bought a few clear plastic insulated tumblers with lids at Ross about 2 weeks ago just to have on hand to personalize. What a perfect match!!!! I used Straight from the Nest and cut flowers at 2 1/2" in the vinyl to match the flowers on the beach towel. Then I got out my new E2!!!! and used the Cricut American Alphabet for the initial. I love the new E2!!!!!! Voila!!!! Instant pool or beach ready gift. Thanks again My Pink Stamper for the awesome give aways today!!!!!

My Pink Stamper Challenge #3

Hi Everyone,

I am entering some of My Pink Stamper's NSD challenges. Here is the first one I am doing. This challenge was to make something with a Breast Cancer Theme. I chose the cute little panda from Create A Critter in a fashionable hot pink. He is cut at 3". I used a punch for the 3D flower and just punched in different shades of pink and layered them. The stamp is from one of the first My Pink Stamper Stamp sets, Everyday Occasions. The pink ribbon on the panda is also a stamp from the same set. Thank you My Pink Stamper and Monique Griffith for the great give away for this challenge!!!!!

Happy Anniversary!!!!

Today I am celebrating 10 years with my sweet hubby. We don't have any fancy plans for today, but I did want to make him a special card in honor of our special day. The stamp is a Rachelle Miller stamp. I wish she would make a series with these cute little frogs!!!!

I will post step by step on this card later. Notice the cute little bow that says Kiss Me. I thought that was appropriate with the cute little frogs. Hope you are having a great day!!!!

Check out this balloon my hubby found!!! I guess he has learned something after 10 years of living with me. LOL!!!!! He's the BEST!!!!

Valentine's Treats

So here are the finished pinwheels for my two sons' classes. They all loved them. We decided to give the girls the heart paper and came up with a blue paper for the boys. They were a hit!!!

Wedding Card

Here is a wedding card I made this morning. I didn't have much time to deliberate on how I was going to make it but I think it turned out well. The heart and "Happily Ever After" were cut from Storybook at 2".

Pinwheel instructions

Here are the instructions for making a pinwheel. This is super easy!!!! Have fun creating. There is also a pinwheel on the Mother's Day cricut cartridge from last year.

4"x 4" piece of double sided card stock

Adhesive

brad

Score the cardstock on the diagonal making an "x".

Cut the "x" leaving about 1/4" in the middle. DO NOT CUT ALL THE WAY THROUGH

Apply adhesive to very center of paper.

Take one edge and fold to middle. Whichever direction you choose, keep it the same on each cut section. Apply adhesive to middle after each fold.

The center can be decorated as desired. I used a brad which re-enforced holding that middle section. I use my cricut dental pick to pierce a hole in the middle of the pin wheel so I can easily place the brad.

*** You can adjust the size of the card stock to whatever project you are doing. Just make sure you have a square. ***

Feel free to email with any questions.

Happy Crafting!!!!

While at Camp Crop Alot, I learned to make a pin wheel card thanks to Angel. She is a Close to My Heart Sales Rep. She taught several classes over the weekend. Great job Angel!!! So of course this pin wheel got my wheels turning. This is what I came up with. I think my boys friends will be getting these for Valentine's Day this year!!! I love them. So simple and great for any occasion. Just a reminder...... I can custom make these for any event!!!! Just give me a call or send me a message. I'm on Facebook too so check out our page.
