Citrus Family

Still used CPS 151 as inspiration...I like this one better than the last one. The colors remind me of summer...which seems SO far away right now!

V-Day Cards

Family Fun Idea

I saw this idea for a Valentine's card in this month's issue of Family Fun. It looked really cute, and I thought about making these for the kids in my classroom. They did come out adorable, but I have rethought making 24 of them...if I had children, I could set up an assembly line and churn these out quickly, but doing them myself is just too time-consuming! I used my Cricut to do the cutting of the heart and tiny flower shapes, which helped, but assembling them all is what took the most time. Maybe I am just too impatient!

CPS Sketch 151

Using the CPS Sketch, I came up with this card. I use chipboard from Stampin Up, paper from DCWV, and a stamp by Stampin Up using the Versamark Pen (it's difficult to see in the pictures, and I am still experimenting with the Versamark). I liked the way it came out, although I am still learning the technique for sanding paper off of chipboard! Is there no easier way??!! I did have to adjust the sketch a bit, as my chipboard pieces were too large to fit across the card, but I like it that way. I have really liked using the CPS sketches for inspiration, I was looking for something to give me ideas, and I really enjoy taking a look at what other people have done.

Be Mine Banner

My second banner I've made using my Cricut...I thought it came out pretty cute. There are some things I would do differently next time, but I liked this for only being my second one!
