Create a Critter #47---Gobble Gobble

 Good Morning Bloggers~

Another day of rain here and I so wanted to go bargain hunting today.

Oh well...guess I will just have to stay home and be crafty :)

Here is my card for the Create a Critter Series over at 

Love that Bug. This is #47 and Stacy has only a few more videos until she has completed the entire series. This card is the fun Waterfall card that is super easy to make and put together. The card has the turkey, pumpkin, leaf and the sentiment. I used no extra's (ribbon, brads, eyelets) only a gel pen. Hope you like it :)

Good Morning bloggers!

I am playing catch-up with the Create a Critter Series over at Love that Bug.

I have 3 cards that I have finished and will link up.

This is #36~~ the oh so cute horse. I really love the paper choice for this card and overall am very happy with the way it turned out

This is #37~~ Moo cow :) This again is a cute card...just not loving it. Maybe the color choices. I might have to do this one over...when I have some free time!

This is #46~~ the deer. I again love the paper choice for this card and the colors.

More cards done....lots more to complete :) I am going to give it my best to get all 50 cards done in time for the end of the series which is June 10th.

Hi Bloggers!

I have been busy...as a bee...hehehe crafting today.

I have a bunch of upcoming projects due that I am trying to get a jump on.

Also trying to catch up with the Create a Critter series over at Love that Bug.

Today's card is the bee, bee hive and tree from the cartridge.

Another very simple card and easy to put together.

Hope you like my card.

Now off to get the kiddo's.

We are playing ball tonight!! The first game in weeks. With all the rain we have been having the fields have been too wet to play.

See you all later :)

Create a Critter #38---"Sweet" Card that is so "Stinkin" Cute

Good Morning Bloggers!

I have a quick post for right now....my son is calling me to come play Lego Star Wars with him :)

This is my card for the Create a Critter Series over at Love that Bug.

Isn't this skunk so "stinkin" cute....sorry it was an easy one!

This again is using all scraps and my white gel pen. That's it...an easy card!

Create a Critter #39---Yes I am Going Backwards :)

 Hi Bloggers! I am continuing my Create a Critter cards for the

Love That Bug Challenge and here is my card for today. This is card #39 and if you have been by the last few days I am going backwards...I am trying to make as many cards as I can before the series is up which is coming really soon.

This card is with the Hedgehog, flowers, ladybug and phase which is a flower and circle. I used paper from my scrap pile which happens to be recollection and kraft paper for the card base.

I did add sparkly brads to the center of the flowers and one layer on each flower is popped up with foam dots.

White gel pen stitching and a stamped sentiment

I so love how this card turned out. Very girlie which I like.
In Stacy's series she does not use stamps but I did add a stamped birthday sentiment which is perfect for a little girl. The stamp is from My Pink Stamper- Pink-alicious set.
So this card will be entered into the following challenges:
Love that Bug- Create a Critter #39
Claudia & Company- Challenge #82- Girls Birthday

I hope you like my card....see you all tomorrow

Create a Critter #40--You Sly Fox :)

Here is my last post for tonight...

This is the Create a Critter #40 card for Love that Bug series.

The only extras I added were some googly eyes and stitching. This card is super cute and super easy!!

Create a Critter #41--Turtle -- Hidden Message Card

 Back for post #3 of the day.

This has got to be my favorite card I have done so far with this Create a Critter Series

over at Love that Bug

First of all the turtle is so cute..right

Secondly I made a card style I have never tried..a hidden message card. I had never even heard of this before this also.

This card has all plain paper....no pattern paper

Everything is from the create a critter cart, the page with the turtle

Only added thing to this card is my white gel pen and a black pen

So your basic gate fold card right?

Looks like it..

But look there is a hidden message page. How cool is that?

I really loved making this card and will come back to this again!

I am entering this over at

Love that Bug

Card Cupids -Challenge #25--No pattern paper

Create a Critter #42 Tweet...Tweet

 Hi Everyone...This is the 2 of 4 posts I have for today

This is Create a Critter #42--The cute bird and the birdhouse. I am following along with Love that Bug and her series.

This is a very basic card...with cuts only and alittle gel pen stitching. I actually used all scrap paper and the card base is one I already had precut for a card. It worked out so well :)

Isn't the worm just the cutest!

Create a Critter #43--Lady Bug

 Hi everyone!

I recently came across this super blog--

Love that Bug- and Stacy has posted super cute projects!!

She is having a HUGE challenge. To make a project with every page in the Create a Critter booklet. With this she uses all the cuts and incorporates them into the card.

So the challenge and a HUGE giveaway is to make the card using the same page and all the cuts..following along with her videos.

Since I just came across this blog I have completed 4 of the 43 cards she has done already.... BUT I do plan on making as many of them as I can not only to get me better familiar with the cart...the prize at the end is AWESOME!!

Every time you link up a project your name gets entered...so there will be 50 projects and 50 chances to win.

The best thing about this series and challenge is we are going back to basic supplies...paper and a marker and the cricut. Yes I have added some little details but nothing I had to purchase and most things I had around anyways

This is my card for Create a Critter #43---The super cute LadyBug

This is a simple gate fold card...A2 card

I did add some glitter to the antenna and around the heart. Also some stitching around the front. I made some skittles and added them to the corners. The lady bug is up on some foam dots

For the inside I used my white gel pen for some doodles on the sentiment and my green copic for the leaves.

Didn't this card come out super cute?!? I really love it
