It's Christmas tag time @ Cardz TV / CCC. The challenge this week is to make a couple of Christmas tags any cartridge any color... Easy Peasy...
For my tag, I used the Every Day Pop Up for the gift cut and I used Simply Charmed for the Christmas stocking.
I purchased ivory colored tags and gave 'em a little more color using Tim Holtz distress inks.
I used the Cardz TV Stamps for the sentiments on both tags. Love those stamps... Such high quality.
Stop on by the Cardz TV / CCC challenge and show us your tags.
I'm back with another Crcut Cardz Challenge. The design team was asked to create a card using a Christmas song as the theme.
The tag on my card reads "Oh Night Divine" which is a line that I took from the song "Oh Holy Night". I love that song!
I used the Winter Frolic Cricut Cartrdge for all of the cuts...
I was also able to add lots of bling thanks to a care package that I received from Janice (Scrappin to Stay Sane)... Thanks Janice... You know I LOVE Bling!!!!
Now it's your turn stop on by the Cardz TV / Cricut Cardz blog and play along...
Enjoy....
It's time for another Cardz TV / CCC challenge. The challenge is simple. Make a Christmas card using something that begins with the letter "S". You can use any cartridges and any colors.
I'm notorious for giving gift cards as Christmas Gifts so I decided to make some gift card holders. The paper for the gift card holders were printed with the Cricut Imagine using the Mr. Frosty cartridge and Santa's Sleigh uses the oldie but goodie Christmas Cheer cartridge.
I used the gift card holder die cut from "My Creative Time" to cut the gift card.
Well, I've got more of these to make. In the meantime stop by the CardzTV / CCC blog to see what the other DT members have made. And while you're at it, why don't you play along!

Just dropping in for a quickie post of an even quicker card. This week the design team @ Cricut Cards / Cardz TV were asked to create a Thanksgiving card using any cartridge and any colors. Love those "anything goes weeks". They are perfect when there are not enough hours in a day!

Wow, talk about blog neglect. It's been quite a while since I posted. Sometimes life happens and either you become a master juggler or some things have to take a lesser priority... For me, the blog and crafting took a temporary backseat to higher priorities...
I'm so glad to be able to participate again with the Cricut Cardz Design team. What a wonderful challenge they are having right now. The challenge is to make a Breast Cancer Awareness themed card. You can use any cartridge. The only stipulation is to make sure pink is the primary color.

Here's my card. I used Elegant Edges (card base), Stand and Salute (paper ribbon), and Better Together (patterned paper for ribbon).

A new challenge has been posted on the Cricut Cardz Challenge site. This week the challenge is to create a child's birtday card using something you'd see in the jungle. You may use any cartridge and any colors that you like.
I kept it pretty simple this week. I used the lion from the Cricut Life's a Party Cartridge, the grass is from Plantin Schoolbook and the balloon came from George. I think the lion cut is so cute.

Time for a new challenge @ the Cricut Cardz Site! This week Design Team 2 was asked to make Father's Day Cards using any cartridge and any colors.
I made this fun little kiddie Father's Day card using the Cricut Decals cartridge. I'm glad we were able to use any colors because I was able to use lots of those little scraps that I've got stored up. I also downloaded the Amazon font for the sentiment. It looked so kiddie-like.
Now it's your turn. Let us see your take on this challenge!!!

This week at Cricut Cardz Challenges, the design team was asked to make a card using the "card" creative feature from any cartridge. I chose the Sweet Treats cartidge. If you like to make shaped cards (like I do), then this is a great cartridge to have in your collection. Shaped cards are easy peasy by simply selecting the cards creative feature for the base and then selecting the layers.
I made a few thank you note cards... The outside tag reads "Thank You" and the inside reads "For Being So Sweet".
Now it's your turn to search out those cartridges that have the card feature and show us your take on this challenge.
