New Card fold...Invented By Moi!

(Please scroll down for the Craft and Green "Hot and Happy, LTC Masculine" Challenge!)


Wow, where did the week go? I can't believe it is Thursday already and March will be behind us in a few days. It is nice to see you here again and today I have two projects to show you.

The first project is a card that I invented, I did it a couple of weeks ago and today I got to courage to show it to you , I would love to hear your feed back on it whether you would ever consider making one of these , it is quite simple. it stands really well when reinforced a little with ( Ahh!!! can't tell yet!,  I have a trick up my sleeve and I know all you crafter's have this item in your stash.)

Here it is, I really love the shape of it. You will have to forgive my picture taking today, I was playing around with the settings and I can't take a picture without a little or a lot of blur... gotta get this fixed!

Perhaps in the next week I can put together a picture tutorial... I am still not brave enough to put together a video even though I have everything I need and studied how to do it!!! Eeeeeek!! I need to go to see the Wizard of Oz for courage.

You can remove the center card, I was thinking of making a little mini album that I can place there instead, maybe just 3 pages so it is not too heavy.

2nd Project
 Crafty and Green "Hot & Happy, LTC Masculine" challenge

The second project is a card I made for Troy's nephew, he is 17 today!  Troy is quite the comedian and to really personalize this card Troy had something to say to him, see below, hahahahaha
This is a digital that I bought from Kenny!, he has really amazing digital's and quite the artist!

I am entering this card into Crafty And Green "Hot & Happy, LTC Masculine" challenge, too bad my camera is messed up but I thought I would give it a try anyway!

 So this is my first real attempt coloring a digital, I used water colored pencils.

hahahahaha, Troy is just too funny

Owl Always Be There For Yoo

FCCB CHALLENGE (Out like a Lamb)

This is my second post today , click here to see Wisp Tutorial (Frenzy) and my little fella's new hair cut!

I love joining the challenges over at FCCB (Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog), I get to see many other creations in the link up section. This weeks challenge is called "Out like a lion" and we are asked to make a project with a gentle animal, lamb, kitten, puppy etc. I wouldn't normally consider an owl to fit in the gentle category but this fella looks harmless , lol

I used the cricut cartridge Cindy Lou to make the layered owl and I love him! I also tried using different bright contrasting color combination and I love the way it turned out!

Here is my project!

I have a heart template I used to trace around and cut out two of them, one was a solid white , I stamped the trees using Ranger's black Soot Ink Pad, The other heart , background and top layer of owl was made with foil card, doesn't it pop?? I had so much fun creating this loud card!

Tomorrow I will be posting about what cutting program can be used with Cricut expression.
