M.A.G. Challenge by the Page #37

Hi everyone,

Welcome to another  Mag Challenge by the page, this week we are to use Hello Kitty page 65!

Remember we can only use the images on this page, everything else has to be embellishments!

Well needless to say, this week there isn't much to work with except for the plane with Hello kitty!

I started out trying to use the card feature on this card, but it would not stand alone, so I put it on a card base.  Thought I would try something different and use the silhouette  feature, I really liked it! All of my papers are from scraps except for the background, it's a little busy but it works, it's from GCD Studios, I think it might be called Spring Time.  I hope you have enjoyed my project!

Now that you have seen my card, it's time for you to get your creative juices flowing,  link your project to Mag Challenge by the Page and make sure you invite a friend to join in on the fun!

I can't wait to see what you come up with!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a nice day!

Design Team Thursday!!!

Hi everyone,

Welcome to Design Team Thursday!!! This week I have made this wonderful card using the Nursery Rhymes cartridge, my little girl is cut at 4.26. I knew  Joy's new stamp set "Everyday Occasions" would have the perfect sentiment for her, you can mix and match them! Doesn't it look like she's making a wish??? Since she was holding a star, the Star embossing folder would add that special touch and I added some bling for a little extra sparkle!

Thanks so much for stopping by, make sure you stop by Joy's and get your pre-orders in!!

EXCITED!!!!

Hi everyone,

About a month ago, I was one of the recipients to have a free trial of the Cricut Circle blog and some of the perks that go with it!!! I was able to purchase a couple of circle only carts on cricut.com site with reward points. I nearly wiped my points clean. Later they added the cartridge I had been wanting for sometime now and no points to purchase it...... :(   I knew that I would be receiving a free cartridge for being in the circle....guess what arrived???   Yessssss the cartridge I had been wanting..... YIPPPEEEEEE!!!!! I did a quick card, not my best and I also have a glue smudge on it, but I am  happy!

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a blessed day!
