Bingo

 
We are playing Bingo at Aud Sentiments.  This is my DT project.
I used the image Sweetheart 254 from Art by Miran.
I used the A Child's Year Cricut cartridge for the card base.  The card base was more of a rectangle so I used Cricut Craft Room to make the card more square, my preferred card base. Since we are playing Bingo, I chose to use the diagonal row of two pattern papers, flowers and a die cut.
I also decided to put my sentiment on the inside of my card for this challenge.

Masculine Birthday Card


I made this card for my brother-in-law.  The image is Oscar from Mo's Digital pencil.  I combined him with a sentiment from Bugaboo Stamps.  I think that he looks a little confused...hahaha!
I kept this card simple and simply matted the papers a few times and added the happy birthday corner die.

Birthday Card


I made this card for a friend of mine.  She celebrated her birthday in Africa while on a mission trip. I used the Safari Chic paper pad from DCWV for this card.  The giraffes are from Karen's Doodles.  I have had this image for years but it's always fun to use.  I have several more birthday cards to make before I can get started on my Easter cards.  Guess I had better get busy since Easter is now less than 2 weeks away...yikes!

Green and White Christmas Card


This week at 52 CCT the challenge is to use Green and White.  This challenge is a great way to get started on your Christmas cards.  
For my card, I started with a printed paper with a winter scene. I added the snowflake border across the top, the sentiment stamped along the bottom and this adorable Tilda with Snowman from Magnolia Stamp.

Hop Into Spring


This is my DT project for Aud Sentiments.  We are sponsored by Lacy Sunshine Stamps for this challenge and the theme is to use an Easter or Spring Sentiment.
I just love this little cutie.  One of the activities my daycare kids love to do is play with the sidewalk chalk. Usually one of them asks me to draw a hopscotch grid so we can hop, jump and skip.

Birthday Card





My grandmother celebrated her 96th birthday yesterday. She is still going strong and looks great. Hope I feel as good as her at that age.
 This was the card I made for her.
I have always used black ink to stamp with but this time I used brown.  I think I love the way the brown looks with the softer colors. Definitely going to be stamping in brown more often.

Card Shape: Life's A Party Cricut cartridge
La La Land stitched circle die

Sentiment from Stampin Up
Corner leaves from Cricut Storybook cartridge
