You Sure are Fly!!

Hi everyone...
Today I'm sharing a card I made for my son's bus attendant aid, Keidran.  I have known Keidran for many many years..but ONLY just recently found out he LOVES Charlie Brown!  So I just knew I had to make him a super fly card for him... (His favorite team is the Miami Dolphins, so I incorporated that into my color scheme!)

I found this funny Snoopy image online and traced it to make into a cut file for my Cameo.
I used all the Miami Dolphin Colors (Orange and Turquoise) for the accents.

I started by making the card base using the WAVE Card from SVG Cutting Files.
I used the sentiment from Jaded Blossoms, Bugaboo set and put in on the Treat Flag Die (I cut it off to make it smaller on one end to fit under Snoopy, who is pop dotted)
I finished it off with my white gel pen to give some highlights, some Orange Momma's Mesh and some Trendy Twine

I love the color combo and how he turned out!!

Chibi Snowmen - Peace Joy & Noel

Peace, Joy & Noel... that is what our new Chibi Snowmen hopes this holiday season brings to you!
Today I made another sweet holiday card showing our new digital Snowmen set!.
Remember the set will be available on Friday, but you can enter to WIN it below!


I just love doing winter cards.... and not sticking to traditional Red and Green for the holidays.  I colored my adorable snowmen with my copic markers and placed him on the new Fold Over Cards from Svg Cutting Files.
I stamped some cute single winter/holiday words from Jaded Blossom's Christmas Wishes set.  I used the Banner Charms and Candy Dies to put them on.  I then tied small bows of trendy twine in Strawberry Cupcake.

I Love Lucy - Vitameatavegamin Girl Style!

THIS BLOG HOP has now ended...FILES are NO LONGER available..THANK YOU!!

Hello everyone and welcome to the:


We are SO EXCITED to bring to you this awesome blog hop!
Our dear talented Ann {that's me folks} from SVG Cutting Files created the most amazing svgs for our blog hop!
Abby started this blog hop a few years back.
 This is actually the 2nd I Lucy Blog Hop,
Why this hop? Well, it's plain and simple...... 
We are LOVING FANS of I Love Lucy!

So, before we move on... If you came from Angelica then you are headed in the right direction, if not, make sure not to miss the starting point with Abby
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I can't remember the first time I even started watching I Love Lucy... just as long as I can remember.  I now have the pleasure of watching the same episodes I grew up on with my oldest son.  Yep, he is an I Love Lucy fan too.  We are amazed how funny we still find the shows all these decades later.  Just goes to show, good television, acting and comedy really DO stand the test of time!  Nothing but good clean fun in every episode.
Now like most, you have to have some FAVORITES right?  Well, I have several...and of course, some of my faves are the ones that are some of the most well known episodes!
In going with that theme, I decided to base my project on
"Lucy Does a TV Commercial"  (Season 1, Episode 30)
(don't worry..I included the YouTube video of this classic episode below!)
It is quite possibly the funniest 3:55 seconds in television history!
Watch it and have a laugh!!

 
So based off this hysterical episode, I created a card of Lucy, as what else?
The Vitameatavegamin commercial girl!

First and foremost, this file is NOT included in the FREE files from the hop.  I just wanted to do something differently and drew up this 50's inspired outfit and created it to be Lucy....just because Im a huge fan! 

I took the sayings from the script of Lucy's commercial and made them into digital sentiments that I did a Print and Cut with on my cameo.
I cut the card shape using the Arched Card 2 base.  The sentiments were printed and then attached a few different dies from Jaded Blossom's Mini Tag Dies set.
I finished her off with my white gel pen for some interest, a FUN and flirty Peachy Keen Face (I was gonna go Retro..but Lucy has those big BLUE eyes, I just wanted BIG EYES)  --- I did not stamp the MOUTH from the stamp set..but opted to draw one in!
Added some Nautical Trendy twine, and voila, there you have it!

Halloween Classroom Treats

Hi everyone, Annie here...
Today Im sharing some quick Halloween Classroom treats I made for my son's school.

I love making dipped pretzels and found the LIME & Orange candy melts this year. I just knew as soon as I saw them I would dip my pretzels in chocolate and then drizzle the green and orange for cool Halloween colors.

I also bought a HUGE bag of individually wrapped Candy Corn.  I just knew I HAD to use the Jaded Blossom sentiment "You're Corny" from the Lets Talk Turkey stamp set.  I also HAD to use the stamp set my dear friend Mel sent me for my birthday, The Cornies from Peachy Keen Stamps.

These little Candy Corn guys were SUPER fast and easy to make with the CANDY CORN Disguise cut file from SVG Cutting Files.  Granted it took me forever since I had to make so many of them!!

I simply attached the Candy Corn cut file to the Jaded Blossom Treat Tag Die, stamped the sentiment on the flag die and then Red Line Taped the candy bag to the back.  I finished it off with some Trendy Twine in Twisted Lime... added freckles and blush and Voila.. easy peasy!

Happy Halloween everyone!!

Close up of that AWESOME "The Cornies" stamp set!  THANKS MEL!!! I LOVE IT!!
