Birthday Card Using Art By Miran digi with Cricut Artistry, Cricut Artbooking and Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridges

Hello friends.  We finally had pouring rain here in Southern CA; and it was awesome.  It came with thunder and lightning which is very rare for here.  I enjoyed it.  It didn't last long enough for me.  It was supposed to last a few days and it was only one day.  The rain was heavier in the mountains; and I know there was flooding in some areas.

It has taken me a couple weeks to create this card.  LOL!  I couldn't figure out which embellishments I wanted to use on this card; so I tried many dies and cut a lot of paper; but nothing seemed to fit; until my New Cricut Artistry Cartridge arrived; so that gave me some new ideas. 

I have started using my print and cut feature on the Cricut Explore for cutting my digis; as I did this one.  It cuts perfectly.  I do not have any cutting skills; so this feature is working out great for me.  I use it as often as I can.  

Art By Miran Maria Mariposa is the free digi from the July Progressive Facebook Challenge. You can still buy her at a reduced price; but I got her free by entering Part 1 of the Progressive Facebook Challenge.  Check it out.  I try to enter every month; so I can build my digi supply.  LOL!  It is so much fun.

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!

Birthday Card Using Cricut Artiste Cartridge

Hi to all you creative people!  I have been playing with my new Circut Artiste Collection.  I love the doilies on this cartridge; so I decided to play with them on this card.  I created this Birthday card for my granddaughter Lana.  This little girl reminds me so much of her.  She will be 10 years old; so I hope this isn't too young for her.  This is a Whoopsi Daisy girl I purchased several months ago; but didn't know how to use Digi stamps at that time.  This is only my second Digi stamp that I have colored.  I am still learning to use Copic markers.
