My Sheri Crafts Cahllenge- #118- Fall Colors

Have you ever just really gotten pretty excited about a challenge theme?!?! I found this image online on Pinterest and couldn't wait to use it! When this weeks theme at My Sheri Crafts fell on fall colors, I knew this was the perfect time for me to use this image! :) I just think she is so adorable!

Head back over to MSC and see what the the other ladies on the DT have in store for you! :)
Hugs,
Sandy.

Home Is Where The Heart Is!

This week at My Paper Crafting, I decided to make a house warming card!

 I decided to use my 1" corner rounder punch on this card! I never remember to do it, so I thought it would be the perfect time to pull it out and give it a go!  The digi I used  is from PCW!
I really like how this card turned out! :)

Hugs, and happy crafting!
Sandy.

Bird Bath Birthday Card!

Here is a birthday card that I made my daughter for her birthday! They just moved into their new place about a year ago! She is really into gardening, and anything nature! I thought this would be perfect for her!
I used the digi from PCW called Birds N Birdbath!

My Sheri Crafts Challenge- #117- August 10th: National S'mores Day and August 30th: National Marshmallow Toasting Day!

At My Sheri Crafts, make any project with chocolate or marshmallows on it! Actually, this one was a lot tougher than I thought it would be! In the end, I came up with this!

I hand made this card! I didn't use a template or anything!  I hope it doesn't show to badly!?!?
Hugs,
Sandy.

Cricutlicious Saturday!

Happy Saturday to you!
Today at My Paper Crafting, we are dedicating the day to using our Cricut machines! I am guilty as charge not using mine nearly enough! Although, I do like to add a touch of Cricut to add a nice touch if it goes with the digi I might be working on! Today is a good example!

I used Stretch Your Imagination cartridge for the caterpillar, grasshopper, and the flourish leaves! I used the bear as bug catcher digi from PCW! The dandelions were a free coloring page I found online!
Go check out what the rest of the DT has made using their Cricuts!
Hugs, and happy scrapping!
Sandy.

Mermaid Card!

This week at My Paper Crafting, I decided to use one of the newer digis from PCW! She is called QT Patootie Mermaid! Isn't she sweet! :)

This is one of those times where I tried to use colors to go with the paper I was going to use! So many times I color and then try and pick out paper to go with it! I know it's backwards and makes it harder on me, but I usually figure it out ok either way! I did use glitter pens to accent parts of the mermaids outfit and put some shine on her, but it didn't really show up on either picture! :(
Anyway, I had fun creating this card and do hope you like it!
Hugs,
Sandy.

Bendi Card

Hello, here is a bendi card that I made for My Paper Crafting!

Here is where I found the instructions on how to make the bendi fold! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_kXavlZuUs
I have to say though, when I made this I did have to change up the measurements a little! The larger piece of paper, I cut 4 1/4 and 5 1/2! The smallest size cut was 1 3/4 and 5 1/2! The next paper was cut at 2 1/2 and 5 1/2!
I sure hope this helps and makes sense!
This was the first time I had ever made a bendi card! I got the squirrel camper digi and the squirrel by the campfire from PCW!
I used the heritage cartridge for the tree found on page 25! I also used Paper Doll Dress Up for the grass found on page 78!

I hope you like what I have come up with!
Hugs, and happy crafting!!!
Sandy.

Ocean Scene!

I am still in vacation mode I guess! I can't seem to shake wanting to go to the beach, lol! The weather hasn't been to unbearably hot here in Texas where I live! It really is a nice change!
Anyway, on to my cards!  :)

I used the sailboat digi from PCW! This happens to be one of my favorite digis! So wonderful for a male card! There is just so much you can do with it!
I did use Life is a Beach cartridge on this one! I love that cartridge as well!

The next card, I used the Whaley Love You digi from PCW! It comes with the words also! :)

I post every Friday at My Paper Crafting! I hope you stop by there throughout the week! There are so many wonderful projects to check out!

Don't forget to grab your free digi every Friday as well!
Hugs, and Happy Crafting!!!

Ok, this one should be an easy one for most everyone who has kids that go to school! This weeks theme at My Sheri Crafts is back to school! This challenge we need to add either a school house, or a school bus on our project! Here is what I came up with!
