Birthday Card - Brother

Hi Everyone,

Sorry it has been a while since I posted.  I was extremely sick this past week.  Won't bore you with the details but suffice it to say, I am so happy to be feeling better.  Today is the first day that I have gone in my craft room to create.  One of the items that I made is this card for my brother's birthday.  Salsa dancing is one his favorite things to do in his free time.  So I thought this card would be nice for him.

I am also entering this card into:

Celebrate The Occasion - Anything Goes Birthday

Fantabulous Cricut - Emboss It

Winner!!!!

CTO Challenge #2 - Masculine Card

Hi Everyone,

If you are looking for my 100 Followers giveaway, please click HERE. 

I have 3 male birthdays coming up in the next few weeks.  I made one card so I decided to play along with the CTO Challenge to create a masculine card/project.

This card is also entered into More Than Favors Cartridge Chaos where you need to use the Rock Princess cart and Cooking with Cricut where you need to emboss.

I used PTI Kraft cardstock for the card base and DCWV Linen Closet patterned cardstock.  I love that stack and think I will buy another one.  I love DCWV cardstock!  It's nice and affordable.  I also used the Cuttlebug Happy Birthday folder w/PTI Rustic Cream Cardstock and d'Vine Swirl and Distressed Stripes

I also used Rock Princess cardstock for the cupcake cut at 2 3/4".    Topped the cupcake off with my favorite, various stickles!  I also distressed it with Tim Holtz Distress Vintage Ink.

Hope you like it!  Thanks for stopping by and feel free to leave a comment!  Love to hear what you guys think!

Have a great weekend....Nicole :)

Birthday Card for Mom

Hey Everyone,

If you are looking for my 100 Followers Giveaway post, please click HERE.  You have until Monday evening to enter. :)  I will pick a winner on Tuesday when I get back in town.

Today, I wanted to share with you a card that I made for my mom's birthday.  I was supposed to post it on Monday, but just been under the weather, etc.

Her birthday was on Valentine's Day.  I love the colors of the card but I was not happy with the tag.  I will make her another one later to replace this one, but I was tired and trying to get it done for her bday.  Also, I am working on a mini album for her as well.  It is almost done and I will share it with you guys when I am finished.

Anyway, here is the card.  I am also posting a picture of a card I made for my mom's friend for Valentine's Day.

Thanks for stopping by.....Nicole

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Hello My Crafty Friends....


Just wanted to wish you all a Happy Valentine's Day! 

I also see that I have reached the 100 follower mark!  Yay!!!  I am so excited.  I will post later on tonight the winner of the Wild Card cart and the Giveaway Post for reaching 100 followers, so stay tuned!

Almost at 100 Followers

Hello Everyone!

I must say I am so excited and overwhelmed with all the awesome comments that I have received for my projects on the CTO blog hop.  More amazing, is the fact that so many people have "chosen" to be followers!  This makes me so happy and I want to say Thank You! 

I am four followers away from 100!  In honor of that, I want to do a giveaway!  I always knew I would do a giveaway when I reached 100 but I did not expect it happen this weekend.  I have not quite decided what I want my giveaway to be!  Something good, tho... 

So with that said, I am going to be doing a giveaway when I reach 100 followers.  Keep checking back to see when and what I will be doing for this giveaway.

Thanks to Flower Disco, my very first follower!  Thanks to those who have been following me for a while!  And a special thanks to all my new and recent followers!  May we all continue to inspire one another....  :)

Happy Crafting....

Nicole
