Cut It Up Challenge #355 - Something with Wings

Hello crafters! Happy Friday to all of you. 

Our Cut It Up challenge this week is to create a project using something with wings. I've had this stencil for a while now but never got around to using it. It is a Taylored Expressions quad stencil. That means I can make 4 card fronts each time I use this stencil.

Quad stencil: Taylored Expressions
Border cover plate die: Amazon
Sentiment: Taylored Expressions
Strip die: My Creative Time
Inks for blending: Taylored Expressions
Bling: Trinity Stamps  

I hope you will join our challenge. Remember to use a die cut on your project. You can check out all the other amazing design team projects at Cut It Up.

Good morning crafters! I am back after having a double knee replacement surgery. It is a month this week since my surgery and I'm doing well but have a ways to go. Doing two knees at once is not easy, but I know it will be worth it.

This week our challenge at Cut It Up is For Baby or Kids. I decided to make a kids birthday card.

Cut It Up Challenge #351 - Happy Birthday

Hello crafters and happy Friday. It sure has been warm in San Diego lately. While some of you are having freezing temps, it has felt like summer here! I'm ready for the temps to drop back down to the 70s again. It's too soon for summer weather.

Our Cut it Up challenge this week is Happy Birthday. One of my friends at work has a birthday soon and she loves wine so I saw this card on Pinterest and thought I had to make it for her. I saw this card on mochafrapscrapper's page.
