Apple Annie

Well, I love it when I can combine my Jitterbuggin' sketch with another challenge....and it worked well with this week's challenge at Fantabulous Cricut....gardening/harvest. The Jitterbuggin' challenge was to follow the sketch, include apples, and use red/yellow/green with some black. I used DCWV paper.....American Crafts ribbon......checkerboard embossing....and hand written sentiment. Miss Apple Annie is a paper piecing from My Scrap Chick with added hair from Paper Doll Dress Up (Raggedy Boy and Girl...layered) Apples and basket are Doodlecharms. And this card fits Paper Playtime's challenge Autumn and My Sheri's Craft Challenge Autumn.

Jitterbuggin' Sketch 2 - Hunny Bear

2

Just now getting to the Jitterbuggin' Challenge this week.  You had to use a Cricut cut of food (honey), something black (details on the bear and honey pot), and plaid.  And follow the sketch of course!  If you haven't entered, hop over and check it out!

The bear is a MyScrapChick pattern, reduced by half.  The honey pot came from Pooh and Friends.  Ribbon, buttons, and pop dots used to created a dimensional frame. 

~OWL~ Congrats!

One of my colleagues was just named Teacher of the Year, and I wanted to congratulate her.  I used the handpieced owl from a My Scrap Chick pattern.  I love doing hand cut pieces....they are relaxing.  Anyway, I used Sassafras Lass and Prima Dude paper, some scrap ribbon, the marquee cut from Storybook (embossed with the Argyle folder), a QuickCutz Sentiment, a cute houndstooth paper flower, and a button.  And some pop dots (there always have to be pop dots, right?...)

This card works for Polka Doodle challenge (use an animal image) and Fantabulous Cricut (wings).

Hello Friend!

We've been on vacation, and I'm just getting back into the swing of scrappin'.  This is an easy friendship card.   The flower is a freebie from My Scrap Chick.  Added some Swiss Dots embossing, a Stampin' Up punch, buttons, ribbon, and a computer generated sentiment.

Looks Like Love - Polka Doodles # 4 and Cricut Cardz Challenge #10

Love this little frog paper piecing (he's hand cut from a My Scrap Chick pattern)....and thought it fit the "non-traditional" Valentine exactly.  Finished it up in lavendar, green, black, and white for Cricut Cardz.  Used Doodlecharms for the little "rain" hearts, embossed them with Swiss dots.  Tiny hearts are a punch.  Sentiment is computer generated and embossed too.
