It's all about the Green Blog hop

Welcome to the It’s All About Green Blog Hop March 3rd and 4th --

The fantastic ladies that are joining me on this wonderful hop are going to show you what green means to them.

Green…
 
Green Eggs and Ham…
 
Green grass between our toes…

Green the way we live our lives…

Green the color of money…

Green the color of eyes of the one I love…

Green Sprouts coming through the last of the snow…

Green what it means to me…

It’s finally March and the month of green whether it is St. Patty’s Day or finally a hint of spring. If you are following the path of green and have come from Lisa's shamrock then you are on the right path. If you have just been following the rainbow and came upon my blog, thank you, but you might want to start with our hostess ScrappinwithZ

For my project today I made a two page 12 x 12 scrapbook layout. The bear images are all from Paper Piecings by Nikki. I am part of her design team. I love her images, especially her bears, I'm addicted to them! This set is from the Luck o the Irish pattern set. If you like them you can purchase them here

Is this little bear swinging on a rainbow too cute?!

Card Creating Tuesday at My Cricut Craftroom

Welcome to card creating Tuesday at My Cricut Craftroom.  Today the design team was to use the March challenge card sketch or heat embossing.  I did both.  For my first project I made a 4 x 4 square card and heat embossed a key on it.

Very simple. First I stamped the key image onto black and yellow squares cut @ 2" from George and basic Shapes, using watermark ink (versamark).  I then used two different colors of zing! embossing powder and heated it.  I finished it off with a brad from My Minds Eye.  Done.  It came out pretty cute and could be used for a masculine birthday.

I hope you liked my project today.  Make sure you visit My Cricut Craftroom for more projects like mine!

thanks for stopping by and happy scrappin!

Amy Jo's Birthday Bash

 

Welcome to Amy Jo's Birthday Bash Blog hop. Today we celebrate the birthday of one of our wonderful crafty friends Amy Jo of http://lv2scrapandfibrofacts.blogspot.com. This is where you should have started the hop. This line up is full of love, fun and fantastic projects! Make sure you visit each one so you don't miss a thing and get ready with your Pin It because I'm sure you'll be using it alot!
If you are coming for the lovableAshley's blog then you are heading in the right direction
AmyJo has alot of loves in her life, so you will be seeing some very different projects.

For my project I made a birthday card. One of the things Amy Jo loves is moose, (is that plural or singular? he-he) that's right! So I found this adorable moose cut on the Campin' Critters Cricut cartridge.  

The card base is premade, something I picked up in a pack probably from Michael's. The background paper is from a monthly kit I got from Above Rubies Studio. I embossed Kraft cardstock with the dots folder and lightly inked it with Versa magic red brick ink. I then used bakers twine around the center and pop dotted the little moose!. The happy birthday sentiment is heat embossed, also with brick.

Here is the inside of the card

As a thank you for visiting I am offering up some blog candy................

Would love for you to be a follower so I can break the 300 mark, but if not, please still leave contact information in case you win!

Love to Create Challenge

well I am entering my first challenge at Love To Create Challenge Blog.  The challenge this week is stitching.  well I was happy to find out it could be faux stitching because I don't think I could manage real stitches!

Here is my card:

Base is Kraft card stock cut at 6 x 12 folded and edges rounded.  Paper is from My Mind's eye and the heart is cut from the Best of Images 2008 Cricut cartridge.  Like my faux stitching?  LOL  I love that little detail.

Thanks for stopping by and happy scrappin'!

Clean and Simple Challenge

Happy Sunday all!  I am entering my first challenge over at The Glamorous Side of Scrapping, the Clean and Simple Sunday challenge.

This challenge is...

Pattern Paper - you just need to use patter paper on your clean and simple card!

And at CardzTV the challenge is Anything Goes!

Here is my entry:

This is a 6 x 6 kraft cardstock base.

 The pattern paper is from the Lost & Found collection from My Mind's Eye

This will be a sympathy card for a co-worker whose brother just recently passed away.

Hope you like my card and thanks for stopping by.
