I'm Nuts About You!

I made this 5-1/2 inch square card with a combination of cuts made with my Pazzles and my Cricut Expression. I found Willie the Squirrel as a piece of clip art in my collection, and just had to vectorize him to use for this card. I also cut the sentiment with my Pazzles using the AR Christy true type font. With my Cricut Expression, I cut the large acorn from my “Create a Critter” cartridge, and the small acorns from the “Just Because Cards” cartridge. The patterned paper is from the DCWV Green Stack. I just love making whimsical, critter type cards. Makes me smile. How about you?

RAQ's Cricut Card Challenge for May 4 thru May 11

NannaDonna hosted this week’s challenge for RAQ, and she chose some great sketches. I loved everyone’s creations, and was able to do three of the sketches.

For my first card, I used “A Child’s Year” for the sentiment, and of course, my Cuttlebug along with one of my MS punches to finish.

On the second card I used “Create a Critter”, substituting the beehive for the tag feature on the sketch. I hand-punched the flowers with an old treasured All Night Media punch and a little punch by Creative Memories that I really like. I used “My Community” for the grass.

For an “extra challenge”, we were to make a card all white with a splash of color. I used one of the cuts from my newly acquired “Heritage” cartridge, and cuttled the background with my Script folder. There, you have it! Thanks for visiting.

RAQ's Weekly Card Challenge -- April 28 - May 4

Thanx Berry Much!
KatieWoo4U is hosting RAQ’s Card Challenge on the Cricut Board this week. This is the first time I’ve participated in one of RAQ’s challenges, and I hope it won’t be the last. For this entry, I choose to use the sketch below for my card. I grabbed my new Preserves cartridge, and chose the raspberry on page 56 for my focal point. The background paper is from DCWV’s Farmer’s Market Stack, and for the scalloped edges I used my Fiskar’s treading water border punch. Other papers are Bazill dotted swiss and textured CS. I used the POOH Font set for the sentiment.
