Pink Stamper Design Team Call - Challenge

Well, I have decided to take a different kind of plunge in the crafting world.  I have never participated in a crafting challenge so this is a little exciting for me.  I have been a huge follower of My Pink Stamper for quite some time now and love all her ideas and she has a great fun personality that I really enjoy in her videos.  I have faithfully watched her videos, especially when figuring out my cricut expression, and learned so much.  Every time she posts the opportunity to be apart of her design team I sit and think how awesome it would be to be on the team.  I have been nervous to try out because I could still improve on my skills.  However, it all the sudden hit me, what is the point of that?  I love crafting and I would love to share my growth and progress with others so I am taking the plunge.  YAY!!!!

The challenge is to use your favorite cartridge and the following colors:
Orange
Turquoise
Green
Brown
(Any other color you would like)

I really had to think about this for a little while.  I was a little unsure what I was going to do because the colors are a little of a stretch for my creativity but once I came up with a plan I really LOVED the colors together!  I already love challenges!

I saw this adorable idea for a card on Ruthie's, September Ninth, blog.  I loved that it was a free standing pop up card.  This is one of my new favorite kind of cards!  SOOO CUTE!!!

This is the view what it looks like when it is closed.  You just pull the tag part sticking out and it turns into a free standing card like the picture above!  Awesome huh?

Puppy Wishes

My husband and I do not have any kids yet so our puppy dog is our baby.  My father-in-law likes to tease us because we love him so much.  So, for his Birthday we decided it would be funny to make a card with a dog that looks like our fur baby!  I used the Four Legged Friends cart and I think it turned out pretty cute and looks a lot like our cute pup!

What do you think?

Baby It's Cold Outside.

I made this cute little tag for my husband for New Years.  I thought it turned out pretty cute.  I wanted to make something that wasn't real "cutesy" love type stuff so this is what I came up with.  I really liked how it turned out and he liked it too.

Halloween Project

I went to a craft show here in Utah and saw this cute little wood ghost cut out and decided I could do something really cute with it.  I modge podged some paper on to the wood to give it a cute design.  I then used My Pink Stampers Stamps to stamp the sentiment on it.  Added some ribbon that I bought at Michael's and wa-la!  I have a cute little ghost.  I made one for me and one for my Mom.  She loved it!
