Franken-tastic!

I am so uber excited about this project!!! This is one of my favorite projects ever. I don't know why! But it is, super cute right?!? I'm partial, I know. Okay so over at Inking It Up the amazing Kassidy has put together a challenge for us to create a gift box for Halloween! I love Halloween. Please go check out her blog and see what all the super talented designers came up with!

This is the gift box that I came up with.
Let me tell you what I used...

Cricut- Mini Monsters Cartridge
Ink- Basic Black from Stampin' Up
Embellishments- Green button from my stash, twine from Michael's, Those knobs on his neck are from my hubby's tool box. I couldn't find anything that was black and round in my stuff and I'm trying not to buy stuff when I have plenty here so...I went on a hunt. And I found these I have no idea what they are called but I love them. Good thing he has more.
Stamps- Franken-tastic from Pink By Design A Haunting We Will Go
Extras- Black Acrylic Paint for the mouth and the stitches, The bag that the popcorn is in is from Stampin up its the medium cello bag, and  a white gel pen from Peachy Keen Stamps

Candy CORN!!!!

Hi everyone! How are you all?!? I am having a really good week. My baby girl and I have been hard at work organizing our scrap room. I've realized we could probably get so much more done with our space organized. Let's see how that comes together.

Here is my card for the challenge at Cricut Cardz Challenge. Mary is amazing and she puts together such great challenges, so go and take a peek. Also here is the video I used to make my S fold card S Fold Valentine. I think I'm lovin' the S fold! I may  have to do them more often.




Here's a list of What was used:
Cricut- George and basic Shapes for the circles, Mini Monsters for the candy corn sweetie
Ink-basic black from Stampin Up
Embellishments-Bling from Michael's. I just ordered an i-rock! Does anyone else have one? What do you think of it?
Stamps-Peachy keen Cutie Pie Faces, and Nikkity Knack Cat Gang (For the spider and the inside, which says have a peachy keen Halloween)
Extras-Glitter in black and gold from Martha Stewart for her shoes and her hair, White gel pen from PKS
Paper-Stampin Up and random pattern paper
Adhesive- atg
Color medium-I used two different shades of pink pastels from Stampin Up. The lighter one was for her skin. The darker one was for her cheeks.

P.S. I will be having a challenge for the entire month of October for GREAT prizes by my favorite stamp company...HINT HINT PKS and more!!!!! SO look out for that.

Cricut Cardz Challenge #42

Hi everyone! How are you all on this fine day? If this is your first time visiting HELLO. If you've been here before welcome back. My girls you know who you are. HEHE.
Here is the card that I made for the challenge over at Cricut Cardz Challenge I am lovin' being a part of the DT, the ladies over there are soooo creative. Please go take a look around and play along with us this week.
I am almost done making all of the Halloween invites for my baby's birthday in a few weeks. YES! So this challenge fit in nicely with what is going on at our house.

Okay SOOOOO.... I have a tip for today.
If you are cutting something that is really intricate like this fence then change your speed down. I had my speed at 3 and my pressure at 5 because I was cutting through Stampin Up Cardstock and it's really thick. But, if you have thinner cardstock that can be lower as well. And my dial on the actual blade was at 4. I hope this helps some of you. :)


Here's a list of What was used:
Cricut-Beyond Birthdays for the card feature. Mini Monsters for the Fence. (I didn't realize how many cute images were on Mini Monsters.) and Paper Doll Dress Up for the Crow.
Embellishments-Some Bling from Michaels
Extras- White gel pen and black writing marker
Paper- Stampin Up retired yellow and purple and the black is basic black.
