Birthday Card for Male Using CTMH Tommy Paper and Cricut Artiste Cartridge

DT Project For Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #68 - Step Card


Hello to all my fellow crafters!  I hope everyone is doing well and finding time to craft.  I have been feeling under the weather with migraines; so it has been tough finding time that I actually feel like crafting.  I really want to create more, not less; but apparently the timing isn't right.  The weather is already hot here in Southern CA, in the 90's.  I hate to see what it is in July and August.
 
I am very excited about Challenge #68 at Tammy's Scrapin Corner this week.   This is my favorite card to create.  I just think there are so many options with a step card.  It is very easy to make once you start creating them.  I love the side step card the best - at least today.  LOL!!  I have the right to change my mind, don't I?  You know how we have a favorite scrapbooking item today and it changes again tomorrow when we find something else we love more. Our sponsors this week are Bugaboo and SK Digis. 
 
 
Our Guest Designer this week is Helen Nile.  Be sure to check out her blog as well as the other DT who work every week to provide you with inspiration for your crafting.  We would love to have you join us for another wonderful challenge.  If you haven't tried creating a step card, just try it.  You will be so glad you did.  Click on Side Step Card for a tutorial or Center Step Card if you prefer this one.
See my Tutorials Page for more free tutorials. 
 
For my Side Step Card; I use a 6 x 12 page.  I use 1 inch for the first mountain fold (2 inches from one side or the other), then a valley fold at 2 inch for the second one (2 inches from same side as the first one).  Another mountain fold at 6 inches next to the 2 inches on the side.  I do another 2 inch mountain fold at 7 inches.  I use Norma's tutorial; but with measurements just a little different than the one's she shows on this tutorial.  I printed off the sketch and refer to it each time I make a Side Step Card.  I hope this helps to encourage you to try your hand at creating one of these beauties.  They are so much fun.
 
 
I used Bugaboo Edward Springtime for my image on this card.  I wanted one for a male; but I also wanted it a little quirky, not serious.  I love this CTMH Tommy Paper packet for male creations.  There are several wonderful designs in this paper pack; so be sure to check it out.  I love these Pinwheels made from the Cricut Artiste.  They actually work by using a brad in them.  Just don't place any glue or 3D foam tape in the way of the prongs; so they will move freely.  The buttons are a pretty shiny green with a flourish design on them; but they are not clear on these pictures.

Good Luck "Side Step Card" Using Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge

DT Project For Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #53 - Include A Shamrock.

Hi to all my friends, family, followers and crafters.  I hope everyone is having a great time crafting and staying warm and dry.  It is rainy and cold here again in Southern CA as I write this on Friday.  Maybe it will clear up by Monday when this is published. 

It is time for another wonderful week at Tammy's Scrapin Corner - Challenge #53 - Include A Shamrock.  Be sure to check out all the gorgeous creations by the other members of the DT.  They are a very creative bunch!!  Our sponsors this week are Milk Coffee and SK Digis.  Both of these sponsors have some incredible digi stamps; so be sure to check them out.  If you would like to be considered as a guest designer; please add GDT behind your name when entering the challenge. 

I had a challenge finding a shamrock; but finally found a tag on the Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge.  There are 3 leaf and 4 leaf shamrocks.  I think they both are considered Good Luck; which was what  I wanted for my card.  I chose Milk Coffee "Charlotte And Butterfly"; which I think is adorable.  A tutorial for this "Side Step Card" by Norma is found here.  I changed mine with the smaller piece on the left side and made it 2 inches on one side and 4 inches on the other side.

Friend Card As Center Step Card Using Cricut Artiste and Art Philosophy Cartridges

DT Project For Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #52 - Red And Green Plus A Ribbon.

Hello.  I hope everyone is doing well and taking time to create!!  The weather has been beautiful here in Southern CA; which makes me feel a little guilty because so many are having horrible weather.  I hope everyone drives safe and stays warm wherever you are. 

This is the last week of my Mother's visit as she will be flying home on March 10th.  She has been here for almost 2 months and in some ways it seems like just yesterday that she arrived.  Part of me wants her to stay and part of me needs a break from so much responsibility of another person.  She has a great life in MO with family and friends there; so I know she wants to go home.  It just feels like we never have enough time together when she is here.

It's another fabulous week for Tammy's Scrapin Corner - Challenge #52 - Theme Red and Green plus a Ribbon.  Our sponsors for this challenge are QKR Stampede.  Our Guest DT this week is Dayana Marin.  Visit her blog to see her beautiful creations.  If you would like to be considered as a Guest Designer; please add GDT behind your name when you enter our challenge. 

I chose QKR Stampede digi "Picking Flowers" for my image on this card.  I had a lot of fun with this card.  I wanted to punch the edges; but it almost broke my punch trying to punch through two layers of cardstock/paper.  The free top inside sentiment is from Hannelie Desert Diva blog and the bottom free inside sentiment is unknown from an Internet search.  Here is the link for tutorial for Center Step Card.

Birthday Card Using Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge

Hi to all my followers, fellow crafters and readers.  It was a busy and hot weekend here in Southern CA.  I found some free time to finish a couple cards I had started several weeks ago.  My favorite one is this birthday card; which uses my Bugaboo Silhouette Butterfly and Flowers digital stamp.  I love their stamps; especially the silhouettes.  I love black and white cards.  I think they look so elegant.

I used my Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge to cut the base at 5 inches.  I also used the font layer to cut the beautiful doily type cuts.  I completed the inside with the same type of cut.


Inside using two different CTMH stamp sets. The left side is from CTMH "Hooray Bouquet" and on the right is from CTMH "4 My Friend" stamp sets.



Closer view of the left side.

Pearls - larger ones - Want2scrap.com
