#57, 58, 59 Digi Monday for Paper Playtime

Hello everyone today is Digi Monday at Paper Playtime so that means the Queens (DT) will all be creating something with the Digi stamps from our Sponsors. The theme this week is anything goes you may enter your project HERE and you do not have to use a Digi to play along!

For my first card I used Digital Delights by Louby Loo St. Patrick's Paper pack (for the Kiss Me paper) and also St. Patricks Day Larry for the image. I colored Larry with Prismacolor pencils and added stickles and stamped the sentiment with Emma's Creative Time stamps. I cut the scallop shape from Accent Essentials and embossed with my Cuttlebug.

For my 2nd card I used the Disco Tween from Digi's with Attitude. I colored her with Prismacolor pencils stamped the (Hero Arts stamp)sentiment with purple ink and placed it in my Cuttlebug. The embossing folder is the Cuttlebug companion for Create A Critter.

For my 3rd card the sentiment, squirrel and all of the patterend paper are all from Doodle Pantry you can purchase the set here it's called NUTTY FOR YOU. I colored the squirrel with Bic Markers and cut the acorns at the bottom with the B is for Boy LITE cart, and added twine and used a Fiskars border punch at the top.

For my 4th and final card is from Prairie Fairy and the stamp is called Nurse Gillian I colored her with Prismacolor pencil and I did some plastic surgery and gave her some red pouty lips lol! The marquee shapes were from Once Upon A Princes. I stamped the red background with a large mesh stamp from Michael's and stamped the sentiment.

I hope you all enjoyed looking at all 4 of my cards I made for Digi Monday and I hope you can enter the ANYTHING GOES challenge at  Paper Playtime! have fun! and thank you to our wonderful Sponsors!

#56 Hello Cupcake Blog Hop

Hi everyone welcome to the Hello Cupcake Blog Hop hosted by JANIS Pause Dream Enjoy if you are here from Sheree Cravin Scrappin then you are in the right spot. For this hop Janis has asked us all to create a cupcake themed project, I thought that was a great hop idea who doesn't like cupcakes!?!

I decided to make a birthday card using the Once Upon a Princess cart for the cupcake and balloons. I stamped the faces with PKS and added some pearls as sprinkles for the cupcake. For the circle I used a large punch to make a little background for the cupcake. I stamped the sentiment with a stamp from Michael's and added some blue ric rac ribbon and did some inking.

BLOG CANDY!!  I am giving away this brand new stamp set to one lucky follower I have this same exact set and I love using it to make my own polka dot patterened paper! Just leave me a comment telling me what your favorite cupcake is...mine is chocolate with chocolate mousse frosting yum!!

The digi stamps I used were Pot of Gold, St. Patricks Day sentiment and St Patricks paper pack. I colored the stamps with Bic markers and used my Stickles for some glitter and I used some blue Puffy paint for the cloud. I stamped the green paper with a Studio G stamp from Michael's repeately to make my own patterend paper. I also inked around the edges with black chalk ink.

#51 Sensational Scenes Blog Hop

Hello everyone welcome to the Sensational Scenes Blog Hop hosted by Christina from http://cardcreationsbyc.blogspot.com/  if you are here from Mel's blog http://scrappymel.blogspot.com/ then you are in the right spot. For this hop Christina asked us to create a Scene themed card. I was super excited to make one since I never make scenery type of cards. I was inspired to make this card based on a recent trip to California Adventure (California Adventure is a Disney theme park).

First I stamped the entire background with polka dot stamps to make it look light I used blue chalk ink. The carousel and palm tree are from the Summer Vacation Seasonal cart, the roller coaster is from Carousel LITE cart, the people are from Going Places and Mickey and Mickey hats are from the Mickey & Friends cart. I placed pop dots under the tree and the people and stamped the sentiment with Pink By Design.

Here is a night time picture of  my inspiration:

I hope you have a wonderful day and thank you for hopping with us today! Thank you to Christina for letting me join you on your hop!

For this week's challenge we are flaunting the Paper Doll Dress Up Cartridge and the cuts are Ragedy Ann/ and or Andy on Page 36 and Page 37 of the handbook.

I made a layout with Ragedy Ann and Andy the title says " I love My Cousin Na-Yee (AKA Natalie)"

***Remember you can always click on the picture to zoom in =)***

Aren't they cute!?! The large circle cuts are from my free Gypsy cartridge Printing Press. The font is from Hello Kitty Font, the star border is also from Paper Doll Dress Up. I did some stamping and I also stamped their faces with PKS Rag Doll and Teddy Face Assortment. The ticket stamp is a digi stamp from Digital Delights by Louby Loo. The picture is my son and his cousin Natalie, he always calls her "NA-YEE" so that's where I got the title from. (My second picture didn't look right to me so I will have to re-print a different photo)He is so sweet to her like a big brother always watching out for her. I took these pics of them last May and I told my sister Joanna that I want to make a Ragedy Ann and Andy layout about them holding hands! I finally did it yippee!!

Now onto my 2nd super secret bonus Paper Doll project!!

I made a mini album/autograph book! I made this because my hubby and I invested in Disneyland/California Adventure annual passes recently and it was worth every penny!! I am now a Disney Addict!! I made this autograph book from a 6x6 chipboard album I bought from Michael's $1 bin. The CASTLE is from Paper Doll Dress Up. The title is chipboard letters from We R Memory Keepers. I bought the Mickey Keychain at Disneyland. I painted all the edges with black acrylic paint. I didn't really want to go all out on this mini with too many details that way the characters have room to sign their autograph's and plus this is for my 3 year old son! Never trust a 3 year old lol!!

All of the Mickey cuts on every page are from the Mickey & Friends cartridge. I cut them on DCVW black glitter paper. I didn't want to mess with all of those teeny-tiny Disney layers! I got the Disney background paper from Joann's and I only needed 2 complete 12x12 sheets of paper to make this!

For the back cover I left it simple with a smaller Mickey Mouse head. This entire mini album/autograph book only cost me $1.50 to make! With the Key Chain it cost $5.50! My hubby wanted to buy a $12 one at Disneyland for our son and I yelled at him and said I can make that for less than $3! and I did and I think it looks better then the ones at the park. Now we just need to hunt down all the characters at D-Land!!

Blog CANDY--- I am giving away this ME and  MY BIG IDEAS 8x8 Love/Wedding page kit to one lucky follower just leave me a comment here!

Please make sure you leave comments on all of the blogs for a chance to win the Grand Prize give away on Janis's blog which is the  WIDE EYED KIDS ASSORTMENT sponsored by Peachy Keen Stamps.

NEXT STOP is JANIS

Have a great day and don't forget to enter our Ragedy Ann and Andy challenge on the Flaunt It Friday's blog, new CRICUT challenges every FRIDAY!!

Sandra,
Happy Anniversary!!! :)
I love your projects! You are such an inspiration!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for sharing so many!
I love celebrating Valentine's Day (truth be told, we are always finding little reasons to celebrate & don't just wait for the big holidays)! We usually set a small gift by our children's breakfast plates (I'm behind this year, but last year we got heart-shaped chocolate boxes from See's and the year before we used Valentine Beanie Babies!) and make pink, heart-shaped pancakes! My children are still young enough (6 & 8) that I usually get to volunteer at their school parties (what fun!) and then we have a special, candle-lit dinner with heart-shaped creme brulee with raspberries for dessert (I usually will make a decadent heart-shaped chocolate cake, too)!
Thank you so much for sharing and for the chance to win (you can never have enough stamps! ;)!

#38 You Say It's Your Birthday BLOG HOP

Welcome to the You Say IT's Your Birthday Blog Hop hosted by Erika CRICUT LOVE. If you just arrived here from Janis- http://www.pausedreamenjoy.blogspot.com/ then you are in the right spot. If not then you can start from the beginning at http://www.cricutlove1.blogspot.com/ . Erika asked us all to make a Beatles inspired birthday card for her daughter Ashley's 11th Birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASHLEY!!!!!!! Here's a list of the Grand Prizes that Erika is giving away...

A simply Charmed Cartridge- sponsored by Cricutmachine.com
Love stamp set- sponsored by Lauren from 40:31 creations {one of her new sets!}
Wide eyed kids face assortment -sponsored by peachy keen stamps
Entire February release of digi stamps- sponsored by Kich-N- Bleus

The song I chose is "DIG A PONY" and you can listen to it here:

I created the base of the card from A Child's Year, the rectangle shapes are from Sweet Treats, and the pony is from the Walmart Cricut LITE- Four Legged Friends, this is actually my first time using this cart =) I stamped the eyes with PKS Princess Faces.
