Hot chocolate slider

I have wanted to make one of these slider cards ever since I saw a tutorial on the Pink Stamper website. I bought a box of hot chocolate last year but when I opened it up the packets were way too narrow so ended up making something different.



I love how the hot chocolate slides out with a pull of the ribbon!



I am entering this at Fantabulous Cricut this week. Their challenge is to use the colour green and a circle. Done and done. My sentiment is computer generated and pop dotted. All the cuts are from Gypsy Wanderings but I hid the steam and heart from the mug.

Now I have 9 packets to do this to!

Have your Elf a Merry Little Christmas

Yay! Some holiday cards completed. This idea was scraplifted from the Peachy Keen website.

Blog hops November 6th

Be thankful blog hop has some of my favourite places to pop in including pink cricut, scrap guy and craft junkie too. Prizes include a Unibind, stamps and cartridges.

Banner blog hop has 20 stops along the way and also features some blogs I follow including cardztv, Momo and Erin Lee Creative. Well, and you know how much I love banners...

Happy Halloween

Boo-tiful Banner

I wasn't planning on making a Halloween banner but I have seen so many beautiful/creative/detailed ones posted. I felt that with a black fireplace, I really should make one...







All the paper is Core'dinations. I crumpled up the letters and sanded them. The pumpkin ridges were created using the line in my round coffee table! I used my bone folder and then sanded the ridge.

I am entering this at Fantabulous Cricut for their Halloween challenge this week.

Birthday card - OUAP cartridge

I love how this card turned out. I used some embossed paper from my stash for the background. The sentiment is layered 3 times and the gift is merely a rectangle with a ribbon!

Cross-country layout

This is my son's second year of fall cross-country meets. His school walks to a nearby beautiful, tree-filled park. The students run races against other community schools. I enjoy watching the meets and feel so proud of my son.

Last year, my layout for these races was all done with the Sports Mania cartridge. So this year, I wanted something different. A layout that shows the lovely fall we are having as well as the awesome meets.




I am entering this layout for the following challenges:

1. Falling Leaves at Fantabulous Cricut

2. Anything but a card at Made by Momo

3. Sports theme at My Creative Time
