Challenge Me Monday #52

March 21st is Robin's birthday over at Fantabulous Cricut. It's also the blogs 1 year anniversary! In celebration of both events, FCCB is hosting a Happy Birthday Challenge.

I just bought the Florals Embellished cartridge so I wanted to be a good girl and use it right away! I was instantly drawn to this bird. The papers I used are all printed from the Best Friends Imagine Cartridge.

Although my card turned out to be a simple one, I wish I could say the process in creating it was simple also, but it was not. I went through many layout and color changes until I came out with the finished product! Maybe I shouldn't have tried this while I was sick, but, oh well!!

I hope you enjoy the card! Thanks for taking the time to stop by! And as usual, I welcome any comments and followers!!

Pinkalicious Blog Hop - "Spring" Challenge

Robyn at My Pink Stamper is hosting a Pinkalicious Blog Hop right now. It's pretty cool. There's a lot of great blogs out there participating.

In conjunction with this Blog Hop, she's having a Spring challenge. I wanted to participate so I thought up this Springtime Bee Card to enter. I used the Paisley Cartridge, which I haven't used for quite awhile. I did fire up my Cricut Imagine for this project. The papers on the card are from the Best Friends cart. I don't have any of Robyn's stamps, yet, so I used a Studio G stamp.

Thanks for looking!

Scrappy Mom's Terrific Tuesday Challenge - B is for Boy/Sugar & Spice

I've been absent for awhile from all the great challenges that are out there. I had to wrap things up at work and start to ease into a new routine. Things have finally calmed down so I'm excited to be able to participate in this challenge.

The kitty in the Sugar & Spice cartridge is one of my favorites so I just had to use her. Although I have a huge paper collection, none of the papers were appealing to me for this project. (I know that's probably never happened to other people. LOL!) So instead of buying MORE paper, I fired up my Cricut Imagine and tada a new project came about. The papers are from the Best Friends cartridge. I don't have the Scrappy Mom's Amusing Animals stamp set, yet so I hope it is OK that I used a different stamp.

I'm happy with the way the card came out.

Thanks for looking! Any comments are appreciated!
