I have been working on this Cricut Explore Air project for weeks, off and on. I started it and then had to stop because it is just so time consuming. All the flowers and greenery took so long to cut and assemble. OH My....if you want a project this is it though. It turned out wonderful.  I made a few adjustments,  I added a brown center to the Big yellow daisy looking flower, and placed the little purple flowers on the stems. I think it looks great. I am putting this on the front table at Church. I had the strawberry basket I have 2 years ago, but it is looking a little run down. Hope you like this project. Come again soon.

Today I am working on getting my stash of birthday cards increased.   I had a small box of them in the car, just in case I forgot one while I was out.   You will never guess…my husband thought it was a recycle item and put it in the dumpster. All that work gone, so I am working to replenish my supply. I used my silhouette to cut most of the elements, I even used it to pen the sentiment.   These flowers are given their shape by spraying 4 layers of different shapes with ink mist and them scrunching them up and, very gently, pulling them back out. They always look good. I added a little bling to the centers.   The background it a SU die. Hope you like it and will come again soon.

Well I am doing good….this is my second post for the week. Today I am trying to get rid of some of my stash. I used my Creative Memories cutting tools to make the different layers and a circle and flower punch for the accents. I find that if I leave my cards blank I can add whatever sentiment I need when the time comes.     This turned out nice. Hope you like it and will come again soon.

Life just gets so hectic….It has been a while since my last post. I am trying to get in shape. I didn’t realize how much time that takes away from the other things I like to do in my “free time”.    Today I am posting a wonderful card that I made using a silhouette store design, and a sizzix daises 2 flower cut.   This flower has a large hole in the center, so I filled it with a SU brad. I added some bling on the cut sections of the card base. Yellow is my favorite color, so I added a piece of shimmer yellow paper, behind the design. This turned out nice. Hope you like it and will come again soon.     Challenges entered: http://www.4craftychicks.blogspot.com/ http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/ http://dianamlarson.blogspot.com/2015/01/dlart-january-linky-challenge.html http://scrap-craft-inspiration.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/challenge-1-anything-goes.html http://ema-ginationstation.blogspot.com/2015/01/ag-ch-18.html http://pennyschallenges.blogs
