Here is my project-

Maybe it is the oh so hot temps we have been having lately in my area but I decided to make a beach themed card for this anything goes challenge. I used my Life Is A Beach Cricut cartridge to cut out my fun little Hula Girl, waves and Aloha. I used a Peachy Keen stamp for her sweet little face. I added some clear wink of stella to the sand, her skirt and the Aloha and that's about it. Super easy peasy but I really like how it turned out!

Hi Everyone!

I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend so far.

This week the Joy's Life Design Team has been showing you projects that not only showcase those awesome Joy's Life stamps, but also show you creative ways to use those super cool Cri-Kits Gel Pens.

Cri-Kits are gel pens that work in your die-cutting machines. So pretty much, anything you can typically cut out, you can now draw with your machine. So cool! You can find more info about them HERE.

For my project, I decided to use my Life Is A Beach cricut cartridge and draw some super cute fish.

I used the Reg. & Neon Cri-Kits Gel Pens and drew my fish at 2.5". I then just cut them out by hand and popped them up on my card. So simple, yet I love how different it is. The possibilities are endless!

Here is a close-up of my fish:

This sentiment from the Pun In The Sun stamp set by Joy's Life went perfectly with my card:

So cute!

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today and taking a look at my latest creation! I really appreciate it!

You can view more Cri-Kits and Joy's Life stamps projects on the Joy's Life DT blog.

Cricut 360 Challenge #9

Happy Friday! Today marks the beginning of a new challenge over at Cricut 360. In honor of labor Day being Sept. 5, the challenge this week is to make a "Relaxing" project.

Here is what I made:



I love to relax on the beach whenever I can so my mind immediately went to a nice relaxing chair on the beach listening to waves and the seagulls flying over head. Ahhh! Anyways, before I keep rambling on, lets get to the card details. I cut my chair out of Life Is A Beach at 3" and my seagulls were also cut from that cartridge at 2". For my sand and waves, I just did some paper tearing and then added some stickles to the top of each layer to give it just a little bit of sparkle.

On a personal note, my family and I are getting ready for Hurricane Irene and my thoughts are with everyone who is also getting ready for her. Please stay safe!

Cricut 360 Challenge #6

Happy Friday! Are you guys ready for another great challenge week at Cricut 360? This week's challenge is all about the summer heat that most of us are feeling. I know we are in my area. Ugh! So since we are feeling Hot Hot Hot, your challenge this week is to make a project that is refreshing. Use any cartridge that you would like.

Here is the card that I made:



And a side view:



I don't know what it is about Easel cards, but I love making them. Ok, onto the details of my card. I used Life Is A Beach and cut my tropical drink and all it's layers out at 4". I used my swiss dots embossing folder to emboss my card front. My card size is a 4" square card closed, so it is still pretty easy to mail.

Happy Wednesday! Today's card was one I thought I was making for a challenge. haha! I thought it was to make a beach card but when I went to post it, I read that it was for an Under the Sea theme, so off to the drawing board to make another card. :) Any excuse to play with my crafty stuff again right? :)



I used the Life's A Beach cricut cartridge and cut out the card at 5". I then cut out the layers for the girl at 4". The flower in the bottom corner was cut out at 1 1/2' and the ALOHA was cut out at 1". I added some stickles to give it a little summer shimmer and doodles to make it fun. Thanks for stoppin by and taking a look!
