Happy Halloween card (and a challenge)

Well the weather here in southern Arizona is finally cooling off...and you know what that means!?! Halloween is coming! YAY! I absolutely LOVE all things Halloween! Well, I challenged myself to make a Halloween card without using any black...and here it is. I'm really pleased with the way it turned out. If any of you are so inclined, I'd love to see your take on a Halloween card using no black. Leave me a link in the comments, and I'll come check it out. Thanks for looking!

hello sweet baby

Here is a baby card I made as part of a class I'm teaching called "Strictly Business", which features cards that fit in a business-size envelope (or A10). The stamp is by Technique Tuesday and reads "hello sweet baby: the world is a bit brighter now that you are here". The elephant die cut is from the Cricut Holiday Cakes cartridge. Cardstocks are Bazzill and Georgia Pacific, patterned paper is My Mind's Eye Lush Collection, ink is Staz-On Jet Black, buttons are Creative Imaginations, floss is DMC, scallop border punch is EK Success, ribbon is American Crafts, flocking on the elephant's ear is Fun Flock by Stampendous and is adhered with Glossy Accents by Ranger, corner rounder is We-R-Memory Keepers Corner Chomper. Thanks for looking!

***Edited to add the measurements*** This card measures 9 inches long by 4 inches wide, so the base cardstock was cut at 9 x 8 and folded in half. Thanks to Victoria for the comment :)

Buckeye Balls

Chocolate Scotcheroos

I love sweet things! For my "I Heart Cricut 201" class for April, I designed a little recipe book that has 5 recipes for sweet things. I thought this book would make a great gift for a girlfriend, Mother's Day, a bridal shower, or any occasion. All cuts were made with the George and Basic Shapes cartridge, with the exception of the word "SWEET", which is from All Mixed Up. Patterned paper is We R Memory Keepers, cardstock is Bazzill, used Bind-It-All for ribbon holes. Enjoy!

10 things I love about you

I thought it would be fun to make a cute little tag book for my I Heart Cricut 201 class for February, and since it's not really "Valentine-y", I taught it again for my March class. Most of the cuts are from George and Basic shapes, with the exception of the scalloped circle (Mini-Monograms) and the letter "u" (Alphalicious). Patterned paper is We R Memory Keepers. I made this for my DH, and he loved it...
