Skull-tastic treat container!

Hi ya everyone!  It's my turn to share at Creative Critterz Imaginations!  Today I'm sharing this cute little skull treat holder.  All the cardstock was colored on the Imagine.  I have to say that it's so nice to think that no matter what I'm creating I can always count on my Imagine to give me exactly what I need.  I literally ran out of orange paper and really wanted it for the bow on this sweety!  So I just turned to my Imagine!

I hope you enjoyed this simple tutorial and a special thanks to Kimberly at My Craft Spot for sharing her technique on making a shaped candy holder.  If you have any questions please feel free to ask in the comments section.  For more fun projects please visit Creative Critterz Imaginations.

Bad to the Bone - Tiddly Inks Challenge

Hi ya everyone!
  Back to our regularly scheduled programming at Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog.  The New store is UP and running without a hitch and the OTHER Tiddly store - yes you heard right called the BASEMENT - is up now too - what the heck is the basement...well it's a number of Tiddly Ink stamps that are going for less - so if you can't spend the big bucks on the new images there are a ton there that will cost you much less!!! WOOT!  Any Tiddly Ink image can be used for our challenges - doesn't matter where you get them! So NO excuses now!!!

 I love this Tiddly Image - Lilly Lolita - she's just adorable and for this challenge I found her rather amusing...so cute and shy looking but totally garbbed in BLACK from head to toe with those rather bodacious skulls tutting around and colored with Copics ...well that's our challenge this week - ATTITUDE and Badness!!!

 LOL so straight to the point like I am in real life - I chose Bad to the Bone using my Rock Princess cartridge.  Truth be told Donna Mundinger of Popsicle Toes is mucho inspiring and because of this I stole her BRILLIANT layering technique - which is a lot!!!  I love how it turned out too - so thanks Donna (HUGS)!

 I glossy accented and used black stickles on the letter to accentuate them a bit - I find that using the Cricut to cut out some sentiments is difficult because in the end the words run together - so I've learned to either doodle my way through or stickle the letters to death!!!

Ok, enough of my card and let's talk important things...
The UPCOMING joint venture with Make It Crafty!!! So excited - check out Christy's blog and look for ways to win these amazing new images of hers!!!  I can hardly wait truth be told and all the SAAAA-WEET details can be found HERE!!! You won't want to miss this release!!!

Skull-tastic - AnnaMade

Hi - my name is Anna and I'm seven years old.  I'm taking over mom's blog today to show you a fun card I made.  I used the Cricut Cartridge Rock Princess for this card.  I also added a jewel to the bow on the skull and some navy blue ribbon.  I chose my background paper because it matched the blue in the bow.  I hope you like my card! 

Caught A Bug? - Paper Cutz Challenge

Hi Ya Everyone!
  This week at Paper Cutz Mary asked us to design a get well card using a digital or stamped image or a cricut cut of something that flies.  I chose a lady bug mainly because I thought it would be cute with my sentiment.  This is an all cricut card.  I made a window card using Sheila's (aka She's A Sassy Lady) window card technique by following her Saturday morning Gypsy made simple tutorial.  I'm also going to link it up at her blog.
  First, I pulled out my Gypsy and found a card base from French Manor and stretched it to a 5x7.  I then added the sentiment caught and a from Simply Charmed (for both I had to get rid of other words using the hide feature) and adhered the shadow to the window frame.  Next, I typed up the word Bug? from the font on Rock Princess and again adhered the shadow to my window.  Finally, I added a ladybug from Create A Critter - I used the hide feature again and took out his happy smile.  I cut out a card base in a teal blue - this is my stronger heavier card stock that I like to use as a base to make the card sturdier. 

I also cut the base in a sheet from my DCWV Black Current stack because I wanted the front to be in black.  I then proceeded to cut out the shadows to all of my shapes and fonts along with the regular shapes in various papers.  I then adhered the card together using glue, pop dots and some runner adhesive - my xyron ran out :(!!!  I added a background piece from my K&Co. paper stack that brought the whole thing together - this covered up my window portion but I loved the effect!  Finally, I added some googly eyes and a bit of doodling with my white gel roll pen.  Thanks for checking out my card - if you can - head over to Paper Cutz this week and join the fun by making a get well card for your stash with a flying thing!!!
Enjoy!
