Christmas Peace
Christmas is only a month away! Are you ready? I was so happy when Amy, our challenge hostess this week, set the challenge for Crafty Creations to Christmas cards! Crafty Creations is challenging us to make Christmas cards/creations, so take this time to get another card done, and enter it HERE. Blackleaf Digital Studios is our sponsor! Here’s what I did with one of the lovely images from Blackleaf Studios. I used the color combo challenge colors from SCS ( Chocolate, cherry, crumb cake), added some gold spritz to the printed image, and embellishes with some cricut die cuts from the Joys of the Season cricut cartridge. The dps is from Kaisercraft’s Dear Santa collection. Challenges: Crafty Creations – Christmas Fantabulous Cricut– Thankful for….peace Thanks for stopping by today! See you again soon! Deena
The Littlest Witch
Hi everyone! This week, Melissa has asked us to take a color combo challenge; we must use RED, BROWN and GREEN in our cards or projects. I have today’s Crafty Creations challenge card made and I felt so bad about not getting last week’s done (numbers) that I’ve combined it with this week’s new challenge! Stitchy Bear Stamps is the sponsor for Crafty Creations challenge this week and I was able to use this adorable witch image. I’m certain she will grow up to be a’good witch’ :)! I colored her with Copics and used core impressions texture card stock in green to back the main panels. The decorative paper is Basic Grey. I added a Basic Grey red button with some brown thread for a bit of added interest. The 31 is cut using my cricut expression with the Happy Hauntings cartridge. That’s it for today, have a good one and thanks for stopping by!! Deena

Primarily Masculine Birthday
This was made for my own challenge to make a birthday card using light bright primary colors. I had a hunch that these colors would work well for a more masculine birthday card. After all, most men are just boys in man sized bodies! 😉 They are kids at heart! I used this multi stripe dp from Cosmo Cricket called GET HAPPY. I stamped the VOILA! chef from SU!, colored his cuffs, pants and necktie in bright colors, and popped up his chef’s hat on dimensional foam dots. The sentiment says “Happy Birthday” in french. I added two black brads and voila! What do you think? Does it work for a masculine birthday? Show me how you use your primary colors on a birthday card and leave me a link in this CHALLENGE POST ! Have a creative day everyone! Deena

I made her this congratulatory card in these color challenge colors from SCS. I know she’ll love them; they are so “her”!! 🙂 Our theme this week at Crafty Creations is ‘congratulation/achievements’. I’d love for you to come join in the challenge! This week’s sponsor is Wink Wink Ink!! I’ve also used the Simon Says Stamp sketch for their challenge this week. I love it!

Color Me Beautiful
I had fun with the color challenge on SCS! The colors were lilac, coral and green, yes, challenging, but I kind of like it! I used my Cricut to cut the flower layers and the sentiment from the Home Decor cartridge. The papers are from Crate; the Samantha and Blue Hill collection. I had not used them in some time and I was happy to find them and pull them out. I used a Martha Stewart lattice punch for the border. Lots of flowers for this challenge: Creative Card Crew – April showers bring May flowers Have a great day and have fun crafting! Deena
Gerbera Daisies
Soooooo….what do you think of the new look? Did you notice? Of course you did. I had a bit of a blog identity crisis yesterday and spent waaaaaay too long trying to find a new “look”. It was like I was at Payless trying on every shoe in the shop! (I would say Nine West but they don’t even have that many shoes in their shop) . It was like getting ready for a night out, and tossing every piece of clothing I own onto the floor in frustration!! It was like standing in line at Starbucks and drawing a blank because I couldn’t for the life of me decide if I wanted a non fat vanilla latte or a 3 pump no whip mocha!!! I finally decided. Not confidently. Soooooo…if you like it, great! If you don’t like it, you might as well not tell me. Because I’m not going to change it for a while. Nope, can’t do it. Would you like to see some pretty daisies? I thought you might! 🙂 Stamps: …
