father's day card- another mps challenge

i am nuts about the new "create a critter" cricut cartridge. i've probably already used it on 15 projects in the last month. this is my dad's father's day card for this year. making this was so much fun. i used the new hide feature on my gypsy for the giraffe faces because i wanted them to be blank.

another mps challenge

this week's challenge is to use green, yellow and brown. i made this card and corresponding envelope with a favorite teacher in mind. she has been so helpful and i just wanted to say "thanks." like me, she's a spanish teacher, so i did it in our other language. : )

mps nsd challenge #12

this critter layout was a blast. my hubby used my cricut a couple of months ago for the first time and i've been trying to think of a cute title since then. since his nickname is "bear," the title is "bear meets cricut." he would have a coronary to know this was out in cyberspace but i think it is adorable.

mps nsd challenge #9

this was a shape challenge and i chose a cloud because i have some friends who might feel like they're under one right now. this is just a simple card to encourage them and to let them know that God is able.

mps nsd challenge #7

i was so excited about the dad challenge because i had some pictures from a fun day with my daddy that were just crying out to be scrapbooked. i'm pretty new to the cardmaking game (started about four weeks ago) but scrapbooking is my real passion. i use my gypsy for everything, and i got the idea of skewing the letters from emma aguilar (creativetimeforme.com).

mps nsd challenge #6

i have two fifth grade helpers who have given up their recess time once a week this year to help me out in my classroom. i made two of this card for the two of them. i have fallen hard for that "create a critter" cricut cartridge.

mps nsd challenge #5

there are some teachers i definitely appreciate. being one myself, i know how much teachers take and how much we give. it's a labor of love. the teachers getting these bags helped me out in an extra special way this past week. thank you to emma aguilar (creativetimeforme.com) for the inspiration.

mps nsd challenge #4

i skipped challenge #3 but this one really appealed to me. we had to use our least favorite cricut cartridge. mine is "indie art." i've never found a use for it. thinking about some fabulous friends of mine and my dh, i came up with this card.

mps nsd challenge #2

i used scraps to make this card for a friend who's having a bridal shower this week. i wish her and her future dh every happiness.

my pink stamper challenge- national scrapbook day 2010- #1

mps has some of the coolest challenges. i started this blog so i'd have somewhere to put my scrappy creations and i guess we'll see where it goes from here.

this is a card for some folks who are very dear to me. it's always nice when someone takes time out to help someone else and the two ladies receiving this card have done just that.
