Birthday Card Using Cricut Art Philosophy, Cricut Artbooking, Nate's ABC's and Kate's ABC's

DT Project For Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #76 - Theme is Image Containing Food

Hello to all my crafting friends.  It has been very hot here in Southern CA.  I hope it cools down soon.  I hope all of you are having a fabulous summer and enjoying the weather wherever you are.  I never seem to have enough time to get everything done that I would like to do.  I think I got more done when I was a mother of 3 and working full time than I do now.  LOL!  I think we learned how to juggle it all and had a lot more energy.  I am in awe of so many of you mothers that you find time to actually create things.  That is amazing to me.  I didn't start this until several years after my kids were moved out and had families of their own.  My oldest granddaughter is 21 years old and my youngest grandson is 10 years old.  My daughter has 4 kids and works and finds time to take care of her grandmother.  I don't know how she does it all.

It is a very sad day for myself and my family.  My sweet, precious, ex-mother-in-law passed away last night in MO.  She was my children's father's mother.  So sad.   She would have been 90 in Dec.  She had a mild stroke a week ago and seemed to be doing really good; but took a turn for the worse on Friday night.  I will not be able to attend the funeral; which is very heartbreaking for me; but not much I can do about it.  She had lived alone until this happened.  She will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her.  She passed away on one of my grand-daughter's birthday-Abigail.  I made this card for Abigail.   Please say a prayer for myself and the family.
 
It is time for another wonderful week at Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #76 - Theme is Image Containing Food.  I hope all of you will take time to create something and enter it for some fabulous prizes.  We look forward to your creations and miss you when you are gone.  This week is a really easy one.  Just include an image with food on it.  Our sponsor this week is Eureka Stamps.  I love their stamps.  They have both Digi and Rubber stamps; so click on their name and check out their awesome collection of stamps.
If you would like to be considered as a Guest Designer; just add GDT behind your name when you enter your creation this week.  Take a chance.  It is a great experience!  Good luck.
I chose Eureka Stamps - Pumpkin Racoon for my card this week.  Raccoon is actually spelled with 2 c's; but it is only spelled racoon in their shop.  I love this stamp.   I used the Cricut Art Philosophy for the die cuts on my card this week.   I decided to create a birthday card for my granddaughter with this one.  I love the dragonflies on this background paper with the combination of orange and green together. 

I used a sketch from Sketches By Carly from last August, 2012.   I was on their Design team before they discontinued it and I have a lot of their sketches.   I loved working with Carly.  She is very creative.  I hope you enjoy it.  I also used a stamp set inside that I won from Your Next Stamp. (Whatnot Sentiments One-KWS01).

Birthday Card - Step Centre Card - Using Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge

DT Project for Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #43 - Step Centre Card.

Hi fellow bloggers/crafters/friends.  It has been cold here in Southern CA at night; but nice during the day.  I hope you are having good weather wherever you are; or at least having fun and enjoying your life. 
 
Come join another great week for Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #43 - Step Centre Card.  Our sponsors this week are Paper Makeup Stamps and Sassy Studios.  I hope you take the time to check out the beautiful creations by the DT.  We have some incredible talent.  If you would like to be a Guest Designer, put GDT after your name when you enter. Pick and choose from our Bingo board for items you want to use on your card and then enter it at Tammy's Scrapin Corner.
 
I chose Paper Makeup Stamps - "Wayne Fairy" and created a birthday card for my grandson.  I had originally planned to give him the scarecrow card I made; but when I started this one - I just knew it belonged to Jayden. 
 
My daughter later told me he loves to play on the bales of hay at my brothers house; which I wasn't aware of until the card was finished.  The little fairy even looks like Jayden.   I added their newest addition to their family - Gizmo.  My daughter sent me a picture and I tried to color Gizmo based on his picture.  He looks much better than my little dog; but I tried.  He is actually a long haired white Pomeranian mix with golden hair color splattered here and there.
 
I used a tutorial from Desire - Doing Life blog for the buttons.  Go to her blog and scroll down, click on "Older Posts" and then go to April 23, 2012 for the tutorial.
