Life's sweet watermelon card made using the Simply Charmed cartridge.

Hello, friends!

Today's Bitten By the Bug 2 challenge is called Come and Get It Summer Foods! I cannot think of summer foods with out craving watermelon! That being the case, I had to find a great watermelon cut. The best way to do this is use the search function in the Cricut Craft Room. There were several to choose from, but I chose the melon slice from Simply Charmed.

Since I am on that cuttlebug embossing kick, I wanted to use a folder that had the look of a picnic blanket or outdoor table cloth. The Wicker Weave folder was exactly was I was looking for!

I used the Chantilly paper pack, Crystal Blue, and Colonial White cardstock.
For the sentiment, I used the Bugs and Hugs stamp set.


Don't forget this week's prize is the Extreme Fonts cartridge.

Hello flower card made using the Artiste cartridge and the June stamp of the month.

Hello, friends!

I have a cheerful card that I made using the Artiste cartridge and the June stamp of the month.  For that little bit extra I used one of my Anna Griffin cuttlebug folders. Lately, I have really been using my cuttlebug a lot. I need to come up with better storage for my folders. What I currently have is not working for me anymore. Anyone have any good ideas?

I used White Daisy, Lagoon, Pear, and Creme' Brule' cardstock from Close To My Heart.
The inks that were used were Lagoon, Pear, and Creme Brule.
I used the June stamp of the month for the flowers and the A Bowwow stamp set for the sentiment.

I'll be back here on Monday with more projects!

You look lovely today home decor made using the Chalkboard Fonts cartridge.

Hello, friends!

I hope you are all having a lovely week so far. Summer has arrived here in Big D and it is miserable! We have even hit the triple digits. Why can't I have a summer home in Canada?

Today's project is one that I promised you last week made using the Chalkboard Fonts cartridge. I figured other bloggers might do the obvious chalkboard project, so I wanted to do something else. Besides, I had this really great chevron patterned canvas (from the Canvas Art Workshop on the Go Kit) that I have been itching to use. I love the diversity of the fonts on this cartridge and had a lot of fun designing this! This will probably go in my entry way, so people can see it when they come into my home and feel good about themselves!

Cherry thanks a bunch card made using the From My Kitchen cartridge and the June stamp of the month.

Hello, friends!

Today's Bitten By the Bug 2 challenge called for a project made using the From My Kitchen cartridge.  I had to dust this cartridge off as I have not used it for a very long time. I forgot about the cute little oven mitt and it called to me, so this card was born!

I used Close To My Heart cardstock in Pear, Lagoon, Cranberry, and Colonial White cardstock.
The sentiment from the June stamp of the month is stamped in Cranberry.
I used my cuttlebug to make it look like the card was quilted. The folders I used are the Teresa Collins Timeless set and the Decorative Tile set.
