Hello, the challenge this Monday at Fantabulous Cricut is a splash of colour!! We need to include yellow on a project! My son's favourite colour is yellow, and has been since he was a baby! He always picked the yellow crayon or the yellow brick. When I saw these yellow papers and ribbons from Papermania Capsule, Lemon Sorbet, I knew I had to get ALL the range!! 

 Yellow is a very cheery colour for a get well card. I used this very cute cut of Jack & Jill from Nursery Rhymes.

Happy Monday! It is a Bank Holiday here, we are meeting my sister and her son for a picnic today. I am really excited!!

But before we leave I have my Fantabulous Cricut Challenge post. For this week the challenge is to use the word 'Mom' on a project. I have used 'Mum' because that's what I call my Mum. I made her this word book using Plantin School book and Design Studio. I used photos from when we were small for my Mum. The quality isn't great for the photos, they are quite old!

FCCB Challenge- April Showers.

Good Morning, and Happy Monday, which means it's Challenge Me Monday over at Fantabulous Cricut. This week's challenge it to create a project using an umbrella or hat. I have used the umbrella from Create a Critter. I wanted to make a wall hanging using these pictures of my son playing in the rain a couple of years ago. I used a quote by Joseph B Wirthlin which I find really uplifting, 'Come what may, and Love it'. I think these pictures of my boy playing in the rain are a great example of finding the best in something.

I took an A4 piece of chipboard and covered it with We R Memory Keepers paper. I took 3 photos of different sizes and matted them on green paper. I cut out the umbrellas in 3 sizes and flipped the 2 smaller ones. I took a length of wire and wrapped it around an embossing tool, then punched 2 holes in the top, put eyelets in and put the wire through them, then tied some ribbon on it. I decorated it with some bits and stamped 'fun' from a MPS set. I printed the quote and matted that also.

Make sure you check out what the other great projects at Fantabulous Cricut!!

Challenge Me Monday #51

Hello,

Although it is my week off from Fantabulous Cricut challenge, I was so inspired by the other Design Team members, that I had to join! The challenge was to make a square card using gold and green. I found it a bit hard at first because I don't really like gold. I had the Hannah Montana cartridge on my table and I noticed the guitars and I thought- they might look good in gold. So I gave it a go and I added some gold stickles and some green fibers and this is what I got-

Make sure you check out what the Design Team have done, they are so talented!

Challenge me Monday

This is my first post as a member of the Design Team for Fantabulous Cricut!! This week's challenge is to create a project with a tree on it. I have made a card using Winter Woodland Cartridge. I love these trees! The paper I have used is from Papermania and is called Bird Song, the stamp is from the same range.

The smaller trees were cut at 3" and the front tree was cut at 3 1/4". The birds were also cut from the cartridge, they were cut at 1/2" and 3/4". The ribbon is from American Craft. Pop over to Fantabulous Critcut to see what the other design members have come up with and upload your creations.


My husband treated me to a few craft bits for being on my first design team, and when we were shopping I thought I would get a little treat for my followers. I was very nervous about starting a blog. But everyone has been very sweet, and I have appreciate all the comments. So, I got a few little treats to say THANK YOU!! All you have to do is become a follower, and leave a comment on this post and from the comments, someone will be picked randomly in a fortnight.

With Easter coming up I thought I would get some Easter themed things. There is a stamp set and an embossing folder, and a few other goodies. I look forward to reading your comments. Thank you again for all your kindness the past couple of months.

Thank you for your visit.
