I won the Just Buggin button

I am sooo excited I won on my first ever side stair step card!
I get to post the button on my blog!

I made the top 3 at Just Buggin

With my all green card I entered at Just Buggin' for week 21 challenge.

Merry

Created this card for two challenges, one at Just Buggin #21 Monochromatic challenge, and a new blog I started following today. Bah! Humbug! - we had to use glitter. Oh the messy stuff! Which I have a ton of glitter but try not to use it. LOL

Trees cut at 3" from Doodle Charm Cricut cartridge, the base card was run through the new HSN - Cuttlebug Flurries folder, the glitter - ultra fine from Provo Craft

Treat Box

I was surfing some old blogs I had bookmarked and came across this little box. It was just what I needed as I bought a bag of the Ghirardelli chocolate to make into little gifts for my family.
I was able to make 6 little boxes using three 8 1/2 x 11 card stock.
In each box it will hold three of the delectable chocolates. (Which will be hard to part with, but I love to make little gifts to give.)

I am entering this into the Just Buggin' challenge # 15 as well as Practical Scrappers Christmas Challenge.
The stocking is from Doodle Charms Cricut cartridge cut at 1 3/4" and the scallop circle is from Stampin' Up!

Good Luck....On Your Finals

My daughter's finals are next month so I thought I would complete a couple challenges in hopes of geting this card done. At Just Buggin' you had to use three Cricut cuts. I used Roo, (3") the sign post, (3") and a butterfly (1 1/2") - all from Cricut Pooh and Friends cartridge. I also completed the girlie card at Die Cuts R Us.
Cuttlebug folders were used on the base card (swiss dots) and the accent piece (hearts).
Misc Target ribbon as an accent and inking here and there.

Gobble Gobble

We had to use an animal on a card at Just Buggin' so I chose the turkeys on PPDU cartridge. The card is cut at 4 1/4. The turkeys were cut at 2 and 1 1/2 I believe.

We also were asked to use grass on Walk In My Garden which I cut at 1" for BBtB challenge
so I am entering this into 2 challenges

The leaves is a punch I had. Oh - the base card was cut at 4 1/4" from Wildcard cartridge.
Inside is also decorated - will post later

I made the Just Bugging Top 3

Wahoo - Thank you!

Here was my entry that made the top 3.

Joy - using A Child Years winter cut

I love this cartridge - A Child's Year! I used it for the children.

Here is one of 2 cards I made this morning. (I'll post the second one after this as not to make this post too long.

The winter cut was cut at 3" and I used this for 3 challenges 1) Charisma Cardz Challenge # 44 - Sketch at Charisma Cardz 2) Challenge 31 - BLUE, SILVER and WHITE at Colour Create Challenge Blog if we throw in WINTER and GLITTER all the better. and 3) Just Buggin’ Challenge #10 -Just Bling it!! Use glitter or glitter glue on your die cuts and it must include at least one Cricut die cut must be used on your project.

Irridesence paper for the back drop of the children, MS snowflake punch with silver gems. The sentiment if from SU!

Gift card - masculine - version

I was working on the Just Buggin' Challenge #4 - Blackout and once I cut my present, I wanted to make it into a gift card holder... that's when I was reading my dashboard and Jamie's post was there!

I saw her cut file on Bits of Paper - but since I do not have DS loaded, I got out my graphing paper and created my own box very similar to Jamie's. If you have DS, go to her blog for the Cricut Cut File - Gift Card Box

I'll post my version for those who do not have DS, in a bit. I added two punch dots, where the slit ends to aid in the insertion of the flap.

I used Doodlecharms blackout at 3" to participate in the challenge, the celebrate and birthday sentiments are Cuttlebug mini folders. The pp is from Provo Craft as well.

Autumn - Just Buggin' die cut challenge

I stopped by Just Buggin' (I am also a follower) and during the Join Us for the Blog Hop!!! We were challenged to take a die cut and alter it.

I altered mine three ways, inked, embossed and bling (rhinestone)

- tree and leaves.

Here is a card - this was a fun one to do - I found an old punch and punch the leaves in multi colors.

Faith - Just Buggin' Challenge

Challenge #1 at Just Buggin' was to use the word SERENE as inspiration. I thought about thisfor a few days, diff ideas ran through my mind. Tonight I came up with this one.

I embossed the base cs using Victoria Cuttlebug embossing folder and Swiss Dot on the frame.

The hummingbird was cut at 2 1/2" from Home Accent Cricut cartridge as well as the word faith at 1 1/2".

I left the inside blank for now - as this could be a thoughtful card, thinking of you, or a sympathy card.
