Flaunt It Fridays Hello Kitty Blog Hop

Welcome to the Flaunt It Friday's Hello Kitty Blog Hop!  If you are here from Luv Scrapping Together with Saundra you're in the right place.  If you have come straight to my place and would like to start at the beginning go to the Flaunt It Friday's blog.  For this week's challenge we were asked to Flaunt the Hello Kitty Airplane cut from page 65 in the handbook.  It is in the Hello Kitty Greetings cartridge.  Here is my submission, I made an A2 size card.  Recipe is at the bottom.


Now for my second project we can choose any cut within the Hello Kitty Greetings cartridge.  I chose the Hello Kitty w/ the little bear on top, p. 34.  I made a candy box or you can use it as a trinket gift box.  It's the pillow box cut from the Wrap it Up cartridge.


To see how I made these projects watch my video here:

My Pink Stamper Color Challenge & Submission

I thought I would try out for the My Pink Stamper team again.  I hope to make it because I loved being on the team w/ such wonderful crafters.  It was a great experience.  The card I made is a birthday card.  I used the Smiley Cards Cartridge for the first time.  I hid the smiley face on it.  I wanted it to be simple.  I used my FAVORITE birthday stamp from Robyn aka My Pink Stamper.  I use it ALL the time for almost every birthday project.  The request from Robyn was to make a card using the colors pink, green and brown.  Hope you like it:
