Spring Bunny

I love using my Cricut to make cards and not just cutting letters for my scrapbook pages.  These challenges are great for getting me to "go outside the box" with my Cricut and actually use the many different cartridges along with all of the different stuff on them!

The design was inspired by the sketch from My Favorite Things.  The bunny cut is from the Doodlecharms cartridge and was cut at 3 1/2".  The stamped sentiment is from CTMH "March Word Puzzle".  Of course I had to add some fun googly eyes and a cute pink nose.  I just used black marker for the whiskers and mouth.  It was great to be able to use that leftover piece of "grass" paper.  I have been holding on to that scrap since making an Easter scrapbook page for my daughter about 2 yrs ago!! (ps, I still have a little bit left!)

St. Patrick's Day card

It's been a while since my last post!  Holy Cow!  Things have been quite busy and then we had a major snow storm and we were without power for a week!  Yes, a whole week!

So I am finally back to normal and decided to get back into some card challenges.  I created a spreadsheet (I know, like a nerd) of all the different challenges, and organized so I can keep up.

Here is the latest work of art.

I'm not really into doing St. Patrick's cards, but was able to pull something off.  The shamrocks are from CTMH March Word Puzzle and the sentiment is from a random dollar special set that I had picked up from Michael's or Joann's.  I forgot I even had it.  Luckily, I did store it in the correct bin and it was a nice surprise to see that I had a small St. Pat's sentiment.  The other one I had was way larger than I remembered!!

The design was based off of a sketch from Sunday Sketch & Stamp.
