Birthday Card Using Art by Miran Bubbles Brea for Progressive Challenge

Hello friends.  I hope everyone is having a fabulous summer or whatever season you are in where you live.  I just saw the pictures of Springfield, MO and all the flooding there; which is worse than I have ever seen it.  I use to live there and most of my family lives near there.  I feel so bad for those people when I see that kind of situation.  

I created another birthday card using Art by Miran Bubbles Brea for the June Progressive challenge found on their Facebook group.  It is a fabulous group and you  need to request to join.  They have a lot of fun challenges there.  The Progressive Challenge is one that you can join anytime.  The first part is Anything Goes and the second part is with a free digi they have chosen.  It is a wonderful way to increase your digi collection with some gorgeous digis. This digi would have been a free one; but I wasn't able to enter the first part; so I bought it after vacation at a reduced rate.  I think my creative mojo is still off; because this one took me several days to create.  I hope you enjoy it.  

Be sure to check out Art by Miran Showcase blog, Challenge blog, both Facebook groups and her store all in one location; making it easy to find.  

 I am entering this card in Path of Positivity Happiness Challenge; which makes my third entry.  It has been a while since I entered anything in that challenge.  Lisa has a fabulous team and I love her positivity and all of her wonderful challenges.  Happiness can be anything that makes you happy; and the great thing about it is; that you don't have to justify it to anyone.  I love blowing bubbles; which I haven't done for a while.  My granddaughter, Lana, asked if I had some when they were here visiting; but I couldn't remember where I put them.  I am going to have to look; because they make me smile and I feel happy when I am blowing bubbles.  I don't even know why.  LOL!

Twisted Easel Card, If Friends Were Flowers - Using Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge

DT Project For Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #47 Buttons.
 
Hello to all my crafting buddies and followers!  It rained for a few days here in Southern CA and now it is sunny again.  My mom and I went out Thursday for a few hours to the craft stores to see if they had anything new or exciting; but no such luck.  LOL.  We had lunch out and then came home to watch a movie.  Saturday, we took my mom to China Town and Little Tokyo; then ate dinner in Monterey Park.  It was a fun day. 

I am so excited to share with you my card for Challenge #47-"Buttons" at Tammy's Scrapin Corner. Our sponsors this week are Bugaboo Stamps and Sk Digi's.  They both have some awesome digi stamps which I am sure you will love.  Digi images add something to a card.  You can still use your stamps and create so much more when you combine them. 
 
I chose a Bugaboo Digi - "Friends Were Flowers" which comes with the cute sentiment seen on the front of my card.  I created my first twisted easel card; which was so much fun.  I love making this type of card.  The card is easy to make and so cute.  I also used another new paper packet that comes out February 1st with Close To My Heart.  It is called "Chantilly" and has some gorgeous colors in it.  You can find the tutorial for the Twisted Easel Card here at Card Making Magic.  I don't know where the quote came from for the lower half of the card.  I searched on the Internet and it came up as Unknown.  If anyone knows where it came from; please let me know.

Birthday Card Using Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge and AP Celebration Stamp Set With CTMH Markers

Good morning to all my fellow bloggers/creators.  It remains fairly warm here in Southern California; but it is cooler than it was a few weeks ago.  It is hard to believe it is fall when the weather is this warm; but the leaves are changing so it must be fall.
 
I am very excited to share my card with you that I created for Tammy's Scrapin Corner .  I was chosen to be a Guest Designer on her blog using a fall theme.  I feel honored to be a part of such a creative team; even for just one day.  Be sure to check out all the wonderful creations from the rest of the team and enter your project as well. 
 
I used a digital stamp from QKR Stampede; one of the sponsors this week.  Drop by and check out their cute digi and rubber stamps.  You will find this one under Autumn and Scarecrow.  I am in love with scarecrows right now; as many other people.  They are everywhere -  in the stores, in yards, on cards and all kinds of other projects.  I am planning on giving this card to one of my grandsons on his birthday.  I think he will love it!!
 
I used CTMH new markers and I love them!!  They are so easy to use.  I had to use a few Copic markers for my browns and skin tones; as CTMH Basic colors are not available at this time.  I can't wait to have the complete set.  I love how they coordinate with the ink, cardstock and paper packets.  There are two in a pack with one either lighter or darker than the regular color.  You can see them on page 9 of our Autumn/Winter Idea Book with the cardstock and ink pads.

Watch this video for CTMH Card Making Kits.  The two card kits are Avonlea (Thank You) kit and Pear & Partridge (Christmas card) kit. The Pear & Partidge is perfect for making Christmas cards for your family and friends.  I am currently making the Christmas cards and they are so easy to follow.  Each kit makes 15 cards plus I have enough paper left over to make additional cards by using cardstock I have on hand.  Both WOTG kits come with a D size stamp set and all the embellishments you will need to make these beautiful cards shown here.
