Simply Crafts Challenge - More Chicken Please

Hi Crafters! Today is the first Wednesday of the month which means that it is time for the Simply Crafts Challenge with Glora and I.  The cut that has been chosen for this challenge is the turkey cut from the Simply Charmed Cricut cartridge. Here is my project:

I was going to make a video for this one but I'm still sick and didn't want to have sneezing, coughing, stuffy sounding and blowing my nose on video.  ;)  Also, I feel like I've seen a few of this style of project but not sure where.  So if you have done this type of project and I've seen it, thanks for the inspiration.  Sorry I can't give kudos to you.  You can link your blog in the comments section if you have. 
 

There is a giveaway for this challenge.  Details are on the challenge blog HERE.  Also, make sure you stop by Glora's blog to see her project and how she made it. She seriously is the best crafter out there.  Makes projects so detailed and fun.  I don't know how she does it all w/ her busy life.  I'm jealous, as always.  ;)

Episode 116: Goldfish Birthday Card

Here is a funny card I made for my mom.  I am known as having the WORST memory in my family.  I'm the worst.  I have to write everything down and check mark it done.  So I say that I have Goldfish brain, can't remember anything past 30 seconds.  lol  Anywho, my moms memory isn't the best either so I came up w/ this design:

Here is the inside and why it's funny.  I repeated the design like I forgot what I put on the front.  :)

Goldfish came from the ANIMAL KINGDOM cartridge NOT Create a Critter.  Guess this proves what is on the card.  lol  :)

Family Christmas Card

Hi Crafters!  I wanted to share the card I made for my family and some friends.  This is my "family" card.  I made it with the Cricut Craft room.  Using the Cricut Craft Room makes things SO much easier.  I'll be filming sometime in the next week or two on how to do the layering w/ CCR.  For this card I made my Christmas tree, then my Paper Doll (me) and the two dogs.  I then dragged them on the background paper and printed.  I didn't cut.  I just used my paper trimmer to cut out the image to the size I needed.  Since it was just a rectangle.  :)

This is what my CCR screen looked like:

I then stamped a Peachy Keen Princess Faces stamp for my girl and added glitter pretty much all over.  :)

I have one last Christmas card to share on Friday.  It's the card I made for my hair lady.  She is so fabulous.

Happy Birthday Wobee

My uncle is from Australia so I made him this card for his birthday. I was so excited to use that wood grain background stamp. I finally found one at Michaels and it was on sale 40% off! Jackpot!!! I then clear embossed it and rubbed Red Brick Tim Holtz ink on it to add in some red coloring. The Kangaroo & MATE cut is from the Animal Kingdom cartridge.

Beware of the Alligator...

Here is another card I made for Sterling. When you pull on the ribbon out comes the inside message on both sides.
