Happy Birthday! Fantabulous Cricut

Wow, I have been under the weather for the last three weeks, but I was finally able to get down stairs to get a card made for a couple of the challenges.

I used heat embossing for the stamped girl, something that I haven't done for a very long time. I cut the circle with my new Spellbinders and my Cuttlebug.
The bee was from my newest cartridge! Kate's ABC's, I was just so excited to get my hands on this cartridge! I live in Canada, so we do not have Joann's here so when I saw it for sale on Kijjii...I jumped right on it! I then cut the oval at 5.50 inches from my Storybook cartridge. All the paper were just scraps from my left overs. I used some pop up dots for dimension and a lot of bling....maybe a little to much bling, but what the heck!


Challenges I will enter this card in:

Fantabulous Cricut: Happy Birthday Robin

The Cuttlebug Spot: Buttons...Buttons - every where!

365 Day Card: Day 27 Super Sketch Sunday

Bug Bites: Verry first buggie challenge!


Creative Sisters: Monday Challenge#4- use punches
