Feelin' Lucky?

Top o' the morning and welcome to another Krafty Girls challenge! Challenge #2 is Feelin' Lucky? - create a card, scrapbook layout, 3D object, or home decor project with a St. Partick's Day theme.  
Here's my card:

I've been wanting to use this cute girl for quite some time already! She's from the Rock Princess cartridge. The shamrocks are from Paper Doll Dress Up.  
I even added a little belt made out of twine. Her shoes are made out of stickles.
The sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps The Charmed Life.

I pop-dotted her for some dimension.

The scalloped border is actually a border from the Art Philosophy cartridge. I duplicated it and welded it with a rectangle in the center.

I almost forgot, her face is from the Laughy Taffy face assortment from Peachy Keen... I bought it a LONG time ago because I loved it, but had yet to used it lol

Dont forget to join here and thank you so much for looking!

It's been a while...

Hello! I can't believe it's been over a week since I last posted! The worst thing happened! My gypsy baby froze/stopped working :( I've been trying to troubleshoot with PC so we'll see how that goes [yesterday there was a problem with Cricut Sync] If needed they'll have to replace it :( AND to top it off, we are moving so my carts are stored away.
Anywhoo.... I had enough time today to whip up a card with what I had :)

For the hearts, I used the Stitched Heart Die from My Creative Time's 100% Sweetness and stamped it with the coordinating stamp. I added zots to add dimension.  I sprayed Perfect Pearls Mists to add some....shine to it, but I wasn't completely happy with the outcome.

Challenges I'm entering this for:

Cardz TV challenge - Anything goes

DL.ART - Anything goes
Cherished Treasures - Linky Party

Made Especially For You - create a card featuring three papers

Craft Junkie Too - TGIF Linky Party

Hope you all have a great weekend! Stay tuned next week for the winner of the giveaway and some exciting news!

Thanks for looking!!

Krafty Girls Challenge #1

It's FINALLY here!! Krafty Girls is up and running! You should have arrived from Chris' blog, If not, make sure you start from the beginning over at Krafty Girls -you dont want to miss a thing! :)  Challenge # 1 is to create a card, scrapbook layout, 3D object, or home decor project that represents where you're from/live.

I live in southern California, and even better -within 20 minutes from the beach!

"I" is from All Mixed Up cartridge, the heart is from Baby Steps, and "Cali" is also from Baby Steps [just welded]. The sentiment is from My Creative Time's This & That set.

 The palm tree is from Summer Vacation and the gal is from Pack Your Bags. Her face is from Peachy Keen's Christmas Character Face assortment.

The ferris wheel is also from Summer Vacation.  The reason I added a ferris wheel is because I ♥ ferris wheels and the closest beach to us is Newport Beach/Balboa Beach and they have a ferris wheel [like other beaches like the Pike in Long Beach, Santa Cruz boardwalk, and the most known the Santa Monica pier] =)

and my favorite cricut sun is from Doodlecharms -its face is from Pks' Happy Lashes assortment.

Love You A Latte

It's time for another Challenge Me Monday over at Fantabulous Cricut! The challenge is to just make sure your project contains a funny title or phrase. I was inspired by one of the DT members! 

Both the coffee cup and the phrase are from the Love You a Latte cartridge. I inked around the edges of the white part of the cup with Tim Holtz Tea Dye distress ink. The face is from Peachy Keen's Princess assortment.
