Lemonade!


Well, Deana has been at it again!  I just love this lemonade pitcher along with the bowls of lemons!  i just had to do this!!  I cut the sentiment out of the cricut "just because cards" cartridge!  The challenge this week at Crafty Creations Challenge blog is "Summer Fun"! Lemonade is great on a hot summer's day and when things are sour!  make lemonade people!  I did cut A Creative Need image to insert the sentiment imbetween - I hope that works!  Check out the "A Creative Need" etsy shop!




The winner will receive 3 images of their choice from my SHOP

Best Wishes

 

Well, I'm awfully late but wanted to post this card anyway!  I used one of Lia's wonderful images that you can find at the Whimsy Stamps Store.  Isn't this guy just wonderful!  The challenge was punches and edges.  I used an edge punch for the top and little frog punches for the accents.  I'm always needing male cards and thought this would definitely fit the bill!

have a ROCKIN birthday


No Squares or Rectangles!!

The new challenge at Just Some Lines for this 2 week period is no squares!  I took it to the extreme I know but sometimes we crafters do that!  I used not one straight edge - I even used a round card!  I fussy cut her so that there would be no straight edges also - I guess I could've cut her in a circle but I was going a little looney with circles!  LOL  Anyway, I do hope you come join us at Just Some Lines for our challenge and just think it could be you that wins some of Jehanne's awesome images!  Now hop on over to the blog and check out what the team has conjured up and submit your entry - it's easy and FUN!
