Halloween challenges using Wild Card Cart

Hello everyone and I hope you are having a happy Thursday. I have a Halloween LO to share with you. As promised, I am using the Wild card cartridge for my LO.

I think it turned out pretty cute!! Oh, I mean scary lol, after all this is a halloween lo.

I used my MS drippy goo puch for the bottoms of the photo mat and journaling/photo mat...not sure what I am going to use it for yet. The little monster came from mini monsters, and from the wild card cart I used the spider web, happpy halloween sentiment, and the spider. I also used my stickles to add a little bit of bling to the spider and spider web and the twine for the photo mat...(I told you I was obsessed with that stuff lol).

I am entering this in a few challenges:

1.Amanda's Crafts and more- "Kooky & Spooky"

2.Fantabulos Cricut- "Purple People Eater"

3.More than Favors Wacky Wednesday- "Halloween"

4.Paper craft Star-" Trick or Treat"

Thanks everyone for stopping by and don't forget to check out my give-a-way if you haven't already.

"Boo-tiful"

  Hello everyone. I hope you are having a happy Tuesday. I finally got the chance to sit down and make another card from the Wild Card Cart. I used my gypsy to hide the eyes and mouth so that I could use my Peachy keen Jack-o-lantern face stamps I just received. The face that cuts out is sort of scary and looks good, so you don't have to have a gypsy to hide the face but, I just couldn't resist using my cutie patootie PKS stamps. I just loooovvvveeee them.

     I used my MS halloween pack for the paper and some glitter paper from colorbok. The ribbon is from hobby lobby and the stamp is Kristal's from Getting Cricky. I'm really liking this stamp set. Or can you tell hehe. I think I have used it on the last 3 projects I have done. lol
Thanks for stopping by, see you again tomorrow with another project(fingers crossed )

Sick husband!!!

  Hello to all of my bloggy friends. I am sorry I haven't gotten to post anything for several days. I had intended to make several cards this weekend from my Wild Card Cartridge, since I am giving one away for my Blog-a-versary at the end of this month. But, my dear hubby ended up sick......and if your married you know that it is pretty much like having a small child to take care of hehe. You can't get out of their sight lol.
    So, I promise I will make some projects  tomorrow after work and post them for you. I really wanted to show you everything this cart has. I think it is a fantastic cartridge, it has a font, cards and envelopes(of course lol) but it also has other features that you can use as embellishments also. I think I will try to make a layout and use some of the other features on it. Although I do have some cards lined up in my Gypsy to get cut and assembled. Thank goodness for my gypsy, since it is portable I could work on some things and still be near hubby so he didn't think he was being abandoned lol. He really is a good husband, but when they get sick they get a little needy. Who doesn't like to be babied when they are sick though? So I can't really say much. See you tomorrow evening with something . Promise :-p

Challenges and Wild Card #2

  Good evening my bloggie friends. I have another wild card cut for you today. I am going to be showcasing this cartridge so that you can see all the great features it has on it, in case you are the lucky winner of my drawing. You still have time to enter for the cartridge if you would like. I won't be picking a winner until the end of the month. If you want to see more about it just click here.
    For todays cut I used the monster card, it is a really simple cut. The face is sort of oblong, but I wanted it more rounded so I just trimmed it a little and put the awesome Peachy Keen face on it . Isn't their new stamp set awesome!! Since I just recently received my stamp sets from Getting Cricky, I have been using them quite a bit lately too. They are so versatile. The one I am using today is  the Fall-o-ween set. It has sentiments on it for halloween and fall. AWESOME. A 2 for 1 kinda set (love those!!).
             On to my treat bag......

I also used one of the cuts that was on the liner feature key...(it was for the birtday present card)  to stamp my sentiment on. It reminded me of a coffin look. The top had a little bit of a curve to it, but I just trimmed it straight. That's the wonderful thing about crafting, you can do whatever you want and make things that would normally be for a certain thing ito something completely different. lol

I just took the card and attached it to some more cardstock for a background then attached it to my bag. That way I can write a little something in there for my nephew, to go along with all his treats that will be in the bag ;)  I also used my shaped scissors for the top of the bag to give it a different look. The awesome twine is from My Craft spot..(I have been addicted to this stuff lately, I am using it on everything hehe).

For the filler paper I wanted it a little torn, soooo I ran it through my shredder a little then just reversed it so it would give me back my paper without completely shredding the whole thing. See anything can be a crafting tool. lol The paper is MS a pack I bought last year at Michaels.

Well, I think that is about all of the details of this project.

I am going to enter this into a few challenges...

1)Simply Sundays

2)Wacky Wednesday Challenge

3)Scrapalicious USA

4)Whimsical Wednesday's

Happy 18th...

      Today I have a card to show you.  I made this card for my daughter. She turned 18 a couple of weeks ago , and I didn't get a chance to post it. While I actually have a computer that is wanting to work with me, I figured I should post something QUICKLY!! hehe.
        Anyway, she is the middle child and was super excited to be turning 18, I on the other hand was not. It seems like my babies are growing so fast. I am very proud of her though, she is a really good kid. She started college the end of August and wants to be a Pediatric Nurse. It will be a lot of hard work for her, but she is a very smart girl(if I do say so myself) and I know she can do it.
     Now on to my card..........

I'm also entering this into Birthday Sundaes Challenge- Use ribbon

I cut the cake from Celbrate the Occasion Cartridge

The circle mats were cut from Plantain School Book Cartridge

I used my Martha Stewart punch and punched the flower border on both sides

of my strip across the bottom and used some polka dot ribbon that I got

from Hobby lobby to accent it and a my gelly roll pen to stich around the circle.

Thanks for stopping by
