Don't let it BUG you!

The theme for TuttleTime's May Card Exchange was bugs....so I played around and designed a few cute cards.
 This frog card was inspired by an adorable frog card I received from a friend.  On mine I added some bright checkered paper and Stickles.  The  sentiment reads, "Frogs are lucky!  They just eat what BUGS them!"

The fun thing about this card was making the lady bugs pop off the page using a small pop dot.  I also added Stickles to the top of the 'shroons for bling.

An a-DORA-ble Birthday!

Come on...Vamanos!  Everybody, let's GO!...
 Michelle's little friends helped me make up her Dora invitations...I just used Dora stickers I found at Michael's and added punched circles with pop dots and some glitter smiley faces to add some bling.

 I designed a unique birthday card for my daughter using the Cricut and more stickers I found at Micheal's....The balloons were cut on the Cricut, as well, but I found a really great idea for how to make pop-up balloons on youtube at this neat site: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDodsjKFQ8A.

 It sure made my sweet little girl VERY happy!  She carried the card around to show everyone....  Have fun!!

What's NEW?!...a June Blog Hop

I am interested in hosting another blog hop in June that will challenge us to try something NEW!  How many times have you jumped into a blog hop and said, "That's so cool...I want to try that some time."  Then, weeks go by and you move onto other things...and miss out on trying a new product or technique.

Now's your chance to open that NEW download, stamps, punches, markers, or Cricut cartridge...AND check out the web for cool NEW ideas and NEW techniques!

This blog hop is to challenge us to search the FAR reaches of the web to find new techniques or products that catch your attention.  Try them out.  Blog about your experiences...GOOD OR BAD...nothing is better than a fun learning experience!

If you are interested in joining this hop, please leave a comment here along with your email address.  I will contact you with all the details.  Deadline is Saturday, MAY 21st....This should be fun.  I already have my sights on a few new products and can't WAIT to try them out for this blog hop!  Please join me!  :)

Wow...It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!!!

I opened my front door and was greeted by a ton of packages (not all that are pictured here..but a huge group nonetheless).  I felt like a little girl at Christmas!  Now...why do I have all these wonderful packages, you might ask...

Well, I manage an awesome Facebook group called, Monthly Card Exchange.  The ladies that are in our group are so artistic and talented with papercrafts, whether they want to admit it or not!  (You know who you are, ladies!! Ha!!)  They agree to make 7-10 cards a month to exchange with other participants.  I love our group, because each of us has a different style for card making.

Some members have moved on and other have recently joined.  I am so excited to open all the packages tonight to see what has come.  Unfortunately, I don't get to keep the cards for myself...but this month I am participating, so I will get to keep a few!  Whoo hoo...can't wait.  If you are interested in joining our group, just search for us or click the link above and ask to join!  Thanks!!!
