Card Creating Tueasday @ MCCR

     Welcome to my Design Team post for Card Creating Tuesday.  My project today is a card, that was to be mostly pink, by bringing awareness to womens' breast health, by which is recognized in general by a pink ribbon.  My card, while it is mostly pink, I was also thinking that the month is October in which womens breast health is recognized, as well as halloween, so i combined the 2 and tried to made a little card of encouragement and to let someone know I care and are here for them.

     I used the 4 Birds on parade cartridge to cut the bird vampie count, at 3 1/2 inches and the sentiment.  I used some scrap papers from my stash, not sure what company, sorry.   The flowers were cut from the Artiste cartridge and then I put a pink Rhinestone from EK Success.  The rhinestone swirl in the upper right corner is from Ek Success too..  On the white mat I cut one end with a Martha Stewart border punc.

     Here is the lil bird close up, I used Tim Holtz Antique Linen Ditress ink  on  the wing tips and   gelpen for nose and eyes.

    To fnish it off, on the inside, I used a Creative memmories punch to add a pink ribbon.  So there you have it:)  I hope you like it.  To see more wonderful projects from other design Team members go to Ericas' My Cricut Craft roo  here>  mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com

Card Creating Tuesday at My Cricut Craftroom

Today is Card creating Tuesday at My Cricut Craft Room and todays' sketch card to follow is below. I chose to do this sketch as a reminder of my dad, who I lost 30 years ago and he was the best dad.!

He was not a cowboy, but he played in a local band, and the music was Country and western, and so i decided to just change the cards a little and instead of using a dress shirt, I used the cuts from the Paper Doll Dress  Up cartridge.  

  

I decided to make my card a 6x6 because I just got some envelopes for that size.

I used some paper that I got from a kit to make Army Scrap book pages, one of them had like a worn blue jean look to it, it was perfect, I just sanded the edges and the pockets. 

     I cut all the pieces to fit a 5 inch paperdoll.  I made him a hat and a lasso of course:) I faux stitched the neckerchief and hat.  I used Close To My Heart white card stock, DCWV card stock from the All About Boys stack, and some cocoa and yellow [a[er from my scraps.  I   used my atg gun to adhere the papers as well as the Zig pen.  For the shirt buttons and the embellishing I used BO Bunny gems.

      For the "Best Dad"  I used the Martha Stewart Seasonal Cake cartridge. I cut the words and the shadow at 1.25 inches.  It seemed to be lacking something so I hi lighted with a little Stickles.  Voila///add a few pop dots and also some Tim Holtz walnut distress ink, and done.
