GDT- Seems A Little Sketchy #25

I am excited to be the October guest designer for Seems A Little Sketchy. Some wonderful sketches to play along with if you haven't checked it out you should head over there.

Bugaboo is sponsoring this week, how lucky for me since I LOVE them. I used this cute ghost from Bugaboo. I colored it with Copics and added Stickles to the eyes.
I used Lacy Labels Cricut cartridge for the black oval.
I made a candy holder to go with it. I am going to give this to a lucky student for Halloween. Like they need more candy I know.
This is a beads holder I got at the craft store for around $1.
Here is the sketch I followed from Seems a Little Sketchy. I have really enjoyed being a guest designer and glad they picked me.
Head over to Seems a Little Sketchy and join in the fun. I know I will be :)

Inspired Stamps Cross

I modge podged this cute paper on the cross and distressed the edges. I stamped this scripture stamp from Inspired Stamps on a spellbinders lacy circle cut out.
I found this thick cardboard cross at the crafty store for around one dollar.
Simple and pretty quick minus waiting for the modge podge to dry. I am debating giving it as a gift or hanging it in my craft room. Decisions, decisions.

Sketch Blog Hop

Welcome to the Sketch Blog Hop. Everyone has had so much fun doing these it's turned into a regular event!

The purpose of this hop is to show how all of these talented bloggers can take the same sketch and come up with totally different cards. If you've never used a card sketch before, give it a try! You should have come from: Jearsie, if you didn't be sure to go back to the start at www.craftycardgallery.blogspot.com. Be sure to check out all of the fabulous cards at the different stops!
Here's the sketch:
Here is the card I made. I had to use my Iphone to take the picture so not the best but you get the point.
I used a tree image from The Stamping Boutique. I colored it with Copics and added Stickles to the bow. The wonderful thing about a sketch is that you can interpret it any way you want so I made a card with a tree because that is how I saw this sketch, a tree with something on it. The pears were perfect for that.
I am the last on the line up so hope you enjoyed the hop. Make sure to go back and check out the rest of the ladies projects if you haven't already.

MCCR Falling in love


Today's theme is falling in love. What better way to show love then a heart. 
I cut this card from Wild Card using the fit to page on a 8 1/2 by 11 paper.
I added a cut flower and stamp made by Inspired Stamps. I added Stickles to the small heart. I wish I would have embossed this card but maybe next time.

MCCR- Breast Cancer Card

Assignment-Cut a a shadow feature from a cartridge and instead of using the piece you cut out, use the paper that is left over, do not use it as a mask or stencil…. Use the actual piece of paper left behind.
I cut the ribbon from Car Decal on this cut paper and used it on another card. I used the white from the outline of another cut of the ribbon and fit it into the paper spot that was open. I added a sentiment and done. I love this paper and didnt want to cover it all up. 
Make sure you visit My Cricut Craft Room and see the other great projects.

TSB Pink Ribbons Challenge

The Stamping Boutique is having a pink ribbons challenge this week. Of course it does not have to be breast cancer awareness but I love to donate cards so I made mine to donate to Link Up to Pink
I have managed to make about six cards to send so far. This image is just so pretty I was excited to use it.  I used The Stamping Boutique's Princess Jennifer Latte Breast Cancer Awareness image. I colored her with Copics and added lots of Stickles to make her sparkle. 
I printed the fight like a girl from word and used my spellbinders to cut it out. I got that sentiment from this paper pack which is Me & My Big Ideas.
Head over to The Stamping Boutique and check out the other great cards and link up your pink ribbon cards.
