Birthday Card Using Ching-Chou Kuik Autumn Breeze with NEW Cricut Flower Market Cartridge

Ching-Chou Kuik August Challenge - Let's Go Neutral

Hello Friends.  It is so hot here in Southern CA.  I have been trying to stay cool; but this heat is really causing me challenges in trying to exercise.  I decided the coolest place to exercise would be the craft stores. I did get some exercise walking around and looking at everything new.  I even got some lifting, bending and stretching included as part of my exercise.  I did discover that it wasn't free exercise, as I anticipated. LOL!

 

It is time for another fabulous new Ching-Chou Kuik Challenge "Let's Go Neutral".   I had a lot of fun creating something with just neutral colors.  I had to get very creative; so I made my leaves for fall instead of spring green.  It worked; but I do prefer having green ones. LOL! The title says it is an Autumn scene; so that works.  Check out the fabulous NEW Cricut Flower Market Cartridge.

As You Like It Challenge - Favorite Papers and Why - My Favorite paper is CTMH paper.  I love Close To My Heart (CTMH) papers for many reasons.  They are high Quality paper with the weight closer to a cardstock weight, cuts easily with Cricut machines (no tearing), Beautiful colors, wide variety, paper packs are made to coordinate with each other within the pack and more.  I love paper; so I use a wide variety of papers in my crafting.  I am a buffet person; so if I see a paper I like/love; I buy it.  LOL!
