Boo!

 Hi everyone and happy happy Monday!

Today starts a new challenge over at the Bitten By The Bug 2 Challenge Blog!
The theme for this challenge is...

 ðŸŽƒ Halloween!! ðŸŽƒ
Let's see some Cricut themed Halloween projects!
*Your project must include a cut made with your Cricut on it somewhere*

Here is a look at the project that I created to share with you today:


My kiddos are grown and definitely do not Trick Or Treat anymore but I still love spoiling them (and the hubby) with some fun treats throughout the month. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays to craft for!  I normally have so many fun little boxes and such made, that my family ends up taking a lot of them to work for their coworkers lol! Anywho, this little box was so fun to make! I started by cutting my Peeping Ghost in Pumpkin box from SVGCuttingFiles and using the contour function to hide the cuts for the Ghosts face. Once I had my pieces all cut out, I used a stamp from Peachy Keen to stamp his little face and assembled my box. I loved how it turned but felt it was missing just a little something so I thought it would be fun if he was holding a little sign. I stamped out BOO onto a piece of green patterned paper and adhered it to the a strip of Kraft cardstock. I carefully lifted his little hand and adhered my sign, adding a little hemp bow for a little extra touch of cuteness. 


I placed some black crinkle paper shred into the box and added a few pieces of candy.
Cute cute cute!!!

Happy Halloween with Sweet November Stamps

 Hi everyone and happy Tuesday!
I hope you are having a fabulous day so far!
I wanted to pop in real quick today and share a fun Halloween card that I created using some digital stamps from Sweet November.


To create my card, I started by layering the Tree, the pumpkin patch with fence and that adorable little Witch into Word. Once I had everything where I wanted it, I printed it out onto a piece of Hammermill Digital Paper and colored everything with my Copic markers. I created my moon by lightly tracing the perimeter of a circle die. I completed my card by creating a simple background with more Copic markers. I stamped my greeting and adhered my image panel with foam tape onto a piece of black glitter cardstock before placing it onto a my cardbase.  


For a little added whimsy, I added some glow in the dark Nuvo drops for the brew in her cauldron.

If The Broom Fits....

 Hi crafty friends!
I hope you had an amazing weekend! We had a small front move in and give us some colder weather and I loved it! Gave me that feeling of Autumn! Love this time of year!!

I was able to get a simple card done with a few challenges in mind. 
Here is a look at the card that I made:

I adore this little Witch from C.C. Designs and knew I had to have her when I saw the stamp set. I was so happy to pull her out and get her inked up. I inked her up with some Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored her with my Copic markers. Once I had her colored in, I used a die from MFT called Wonky Stitched Rectangle Stax to cut her out. I layered it onto a piece of black cardstock and then popped it up with some foam tape onto a white cardbase. I stamped my greeting with some Onyx Black Versafine ink onto a piece of green patterned paper and heat embossed it with some clear embossing powder. I popped up my sentiment with more foam tape and Voila! Super simple card!


Copic Colors Used:
Skin: E00, E01, E11, R20, R00
Hair: C1, C2, C5, C6

Happy Fall

 Hi everyone!

I hope your day is off to a great start!
Who is ready for Fall? I hope I'm not the only one lol! 
Today I am sharing a cute Fall themed card that I created using an adorable image from


 I thought this image was so adorable and fun and couldn't wait to color her up! I had to create my card base first though. I started by creating an A2 sized card from some Kraft cardstock and layering a piece of Mustard Yellow patterned paper on top. I added some doodles along the perimeter with a black sharpie pen and added a piece of graph patterned paper along the bottom, cut at a slight angle for a little interest. Next I added a little scallop border and added a thin strip of Kraft cardstock to hide that seam. Now the fun part!! I loaded Pamela Patches into my Word document and flipped her so that she was facing the opposite way. Once I had her sized how I wanted, I printed her out and used my Scan N Cut to cut her out making sure to leave a small border. I colored her with Copic markers and popped her up onto my card with some foam tape. I stamped my greeting and added a few accents with a white gel pen and my fun Fall card was complete! 

Copic Colors Used:
--Skin: E50, E51, E21, E11, R20, R00, R35--
--Hair: E41, E43, E44--

Happy Halloween Nugget Caddy

 Hi everyone and happy happy Monday!

Today starts a new challenge over at the Bitten By The Bug 2 Challenge Blog!
The theme for this challenge is...

Life in 3D!
Let's see some Cricut themed 3D projects!
*Your project must include a cut made with your Cricut on it somewhere*

Here is a look at the project that I created to share with you today:


I am definitely in the Halloween crafting spirit so I decided to make a fun little Halloween 6 pack. I started by cutting my little nugget caddy using a file from SVGCuttingFiles called, Nugget Caddy Box from some orange cardstock. Next, I sized the Ghost Border (#M3D21CA) that I found in Cricut Access to fit along the front of my box. Side note: that little ghost ended up only being about .75" tall! I used a metal die to cut out my little bow, added it to the top with my sentiment and finished it with a button and some crochet thread. 


This little caddy fits 6 chocolate nugget candy pieces. 3 in the front and 3 in the back.


I wrapped the candy with with some coordinating paper for a more finished look.

Hey There!

Hi everyone!
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend so far!
I have a really adorable card to share with you that I created using some digital images from 
The Greeting Farm.


I had so much fun with this! I started by building my scene using elements from the Porch (plant/light/door), Porch 2 (steps) and Park Lunch (Anya) Digital sets. Once I had my scene created, I printed it out and started coloring using my Copic markers. I created my siding by simply drawing some straight lines. After I had everything colored, I stamped my greeting using a sentiment from the Frappe-y Anya stamp set onto the card front with some Black Versafine ink. I popped my image panel up onto a Kraft card base using some foam tape and Voila! Super adorable card that will be super easy to mail and hopefully brighten someone's day :)

A Purr-fect Halloween!

 Hi everyone!

I hope your day is off to a great start so far!
Today Digi Doodle Studios is giving a Sneak Peek of some new super cute and fun images that will be in the store next Friday, 9/18/2020!!
 Yay!! 

Here is a look at my project that features just one of the new stamps, called 


This was such a fun card to make! I started by creating my card base from some black cardstock and adding a piece of white cardstock on top and doodled around the perimeter. I cut a piece of black glitter cardstock, used a spider web border punch to punch along the bottom edge and added it to my card front. I cut a piece of bright striped patterned paper, adhered that to my black glitter piece and tied some pink crochet thread around it. I colored that adorable image from Digi Doodle Studios called Jez & Kit with my Copic markers and cut her out using my Scan N Cut. I thought this greeting from Lawn Fawn was the perfect accompaniment for my image so I stamped it using some black ink and then popped my image up next to it with some foam tape. I completed my card with some glitter on her feather, some star confetti pieces and some Nuvo and Stickle drops.


Isn't this image so fun??

Here is a look at the card that I created:


I love all things Halloween so as soon as I saw what this month's theme was, I knew a Halloween card was what I was going to make lol! Witch Raven was the perfect image to use!! I started my card by creating a black card base and then layering two different patterned papers on top. I rounded the top two corners, added a bit of doodling around the perimeter and added some ribbon to break up the patterned papers. I die cut a purple frame and added a white oval center to it that I inked with some black ink. I colored the Witch Raven from Digi Doodle Studios with my Copic markers and then cut her out with my Scan N Cut. I popped her up onto my card front with some foam tape and added a bit of glitter glue to the buckle on her hat. I completed my card with a sentiment, some bat die cuts, star confetti and some green Nuvo drops. 


I love how it turned out!
