Birthday Card Using Cricut Life Is A Beach Cartridge

DT Project For Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #56 - April Fool or Funny Birthday.

FREE CANDY - ADD YOUR LINK AT TOP OF MY BLOG 

Hi to all you fellow creators in Blog land!  I have been so busy trying to get ready for taxes; which I am sure many of you are in the same boat this time of year.  It is very stressful.  I hope I have better bookkeeping this year so it will be easier for me next year.  The weather has been awesome with the feeling of Spring and I have been stuck inside.  
It is time for another fabulous challenge at Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge 56 -  April Fool's or Funny Birthday.  I can't wait to see what everyone creates for this one.  Our sponsors are SK Digis and Deasy Designs.  Our Guest Designer this week is Bunny; so be sure to check out her blog to see all her beautiful creations.  If you would like to be a Guest Designer; please add GDT behind your name when you enter.  It is a lot of fun to have your card featured; even if you don't think it is good enough.  
I chose SK Digis "Goldfish with sentiment"; which I love.  I have to admit I thought this one would be easy for me; but I was wrong.  This was a major challenge.  I couldn't get anything to look the way I wanted; so I when I found this ocean reef cardstock - I went with it.  I know it was sort of the easy way out; but I added to it by using the Cricut Life Is A Beach cartridge.  I hope you enjoy it.

Door Hanger Using CTMH Chantilly With Cricut Artiste and Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridges

DT Project For Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #55 - Anything Goes But A Card.

Hi there.  This is a very special day for me.  I am celebrating my one year anniversary with Close To My Heart (CTMH)!  This past year has been an awesome experience.  I am grateful for this experience and for all of you - my customers, my followers and everyone who has supported me in blog land.  I cherish each of you.  You are a loving, supportive, kind and generous group of people.  You have given me such joy and acceptance since I joined you a year ago.  Thanks from the bottom of my heart!!  Scroll down for my free gifts and specials for the remainder of March and April to celebrate my anniversary with CTMH.

I hope all of you are having fun creating and enjoying your life.  It is another beautiful day in Southern CA.  I actually had time to spend with my husband last Sunday; which is rare.  We went to lunch and then to the beach for a walk.  It was so nice outside.  We were just talking about our whale watching trip we took several years ago and how we would like to go again.  I won a free trip for sighting the first whale that day; but we didn't go back to use the winning ticket.  While talking about it; we were blessed with a wonderful surprise - A Grey whale and over 15-20 dolphins were swimming fairly close to the shore.  This was the first time we have seen a Grey whale close up near the shore.  It was breathtaking!!  We were in awe of their beauty!  It has been a while since I saw dolphins there as well.  It reminded me that I need to take more time to enjoy nature; especially the beach.  They weren't close enough for pictures or I would show them to you.
 
It is another fabulous week for Tammy's Scrapin Corner - Challenge 55 - Anything Goes But A Card.  Our sponsors this week are Meljen's Designs, Bugaboo Stamps and SkDigis.  I hope you will take time to enter our challenge this week.  Be sure to check out all the wonderful creations by our Design team.  Our Guest Designer this week is Chrissy.  Check out her blog as well.  If you would like to be a Guest Designer; please add GDT behind your name when you enter the challenge.  Good luck to everyone who enters. 
 
I chose Meljen's Designs "Fancy Butterfly" for my image this week.  I had a challenge with this one since I normally create cards and scrapbook pages.  This is my first time to create something else.  It was fun.  I changed my mind about six times before finally making this door hanger for my granddaughter's birthday.  I didn't cut the slit in it yet.  I decided to wait and let her mother do that in case she wants to hang it somewhere else.  I am sure her other three kids will want me to create them one after they see hers; which I look forward to doing.  The grandkids always love and appreciate anything I create; even if it looks terrible to me.  LOL!
 
Door Hanger 
These colors are actually pastels; but I can't get the color to come out correctly on the photo.

Easel Card Using CTMH Clementine, Cricut Artiste, Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridges

DT Project For Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #54 - Easter.

Hi to all my followers, friends, family and readers.  I hope everyone is doing well.  I have been playing catch up since my mom left last Sunday.  It has been very quiet around here with just me during the days.  Our weather has been in the 90's the past several days in Southern CA.  I hope that isn't a sign of what our summer will be.  I wanted Spring weather to last for at least 2 - 3 more months.  I am not fond of the hot weather. 
 
We are having a fabulous new Challenge at Tammy's Scrapin Corner - Challenge #54 - Easter.   Our sponsor this week is Eureka Stamps.  I hope you will take time to enter our challenge this week.  Be sure to check out all the wonderful creations by our Design team.  Our Guest Designer this week is Chrissy.  Be sure to check out her blog for all her wonderful creations.  If you would like to be a Guest Designer; please add GDT behind your name when you enter the challenge.  Good luck to everyone who enters. 
 
I chose to use Eureka Stamps "Bunny With Flowers".  I love to combine the digi stamps with rubber stamps.  I used a sentiment from DRS Designs; which is a rubber stamp I have had for several months.  This is the first chance I have had to use it.
