Sassy's challenge due 11/5

Wow I just love doing these challenges! I am sharing another card that I made this one for Christmas because well if I don't get started I will never get them done. I have been pretty busy at least designing them and then all I have to do is cut them out. I love the gypsy for this reason it makes this so much easier or at least it does for me! So here is the card that I made. I used the new smiley cards cartridge that we got on the 11/1 update and I have to say that so far I really like this cartridge thanks Provo Craft for the free cartridges!!! The card size is 5 1/2x5 1/2 I have not found a way to make that size envelope but did see on obsseseedwithscrapbooking.com a blog that I just love that you can make 5 inch envelopes. For this challenge we had to have: 2 Pieces Of Art Minimum
1 Word Minimum
1 Weld
1 Stretch
1 Turn or Slant


The Santa and holly are my pieces of art, word is Santa Claus, my weld is Santa to the window I had to stretch and slant Santa to fit. Hope that everyone has a wonderful day and Happy Scrapping!!!

gypsy challenge due 10/15

Here is another card that I have done for the weekly gypsy challenge. I went to the scrapbook expo recently and bought two new cartridges and one of the cartridges that I got was Hello Kitty. My youngest daughter loves this cartridge and asked to make something for her so I did. I made this card for her to put on her dresser. The layers for Hello kitty were very simple which I like it made this so easy to make. Hope everyone likes it! Happy scrapping!

Sassy's Challenge 10/1

Wow I can't believe that it is October where did the time go? Here is another card that I did for Sassy's challenge these are so much fun. I had to really think about this one as it involved some things that I have never done with my gypsy but I did ok I think. I used Thanksgiving, Don Juan and wild card cartridges to  make this card. I welded the words and leaf with swirl to the card frame, I sqeezed the words with the little pumpkin to fit in the frame and stretched the leaf and swirl to fit better. I also added a sticker to the top because the top just seemed so plain and I thought the sticker was just adorable. Hope you like it please let me know what you think!

gyspy challenge card for week of 9/23

Ok so here is the card that I made for this challenge. I am having so much fun doing these challenges and anyone who owns a gypsy if you haven't joined in you should do so. This is a great way to learn new things about your gypsy and have a lot of fun as well! Ok so for the details The words inside the card are welded as well as the pumpkins to the frame. I stretched the frame to fit the card base. To make the card base I use the George cartridge and stretched a rectangle to the size that I needed it. I added rhinestones to the end of the embossed swirls and also stickles to the pumpkins. This card is a standard 4.25x5.5. If anyone would like actual sizes of images let know. Have a great day and thanks for looking!!!

Sassy's challenge on cricut message board!

Ok so I tried to get this to upload onto the cricut site but for some reason it wouldn't work. Hopefully it is ok that I am uploading it to my blog instead. I had so much fun making this card and doing this challenge. This card is 5x7 and I used the Mini Monsters cartridge along with Pooh and Friends. I welded the wizard hat to the frog and cut that in black then layered his face on top of that. I welded the leaves from pooh and friends and flipped one set so that they face different directions. Then for the inside of the card I stretched the phrase. I used embossing and stickles throughout this card. The embossing on the frog's legs I did using my crop a dile. Hope you like it cant wait for the next challenge!!!

LID challenge on cricut site

I came upon this challenge just browsing this site and I loved the sketches and thought that I would give it a shot. I love sketches! So I did a LO for the first sketch and had no luck in posting it on the cricut site so thought that I would post it here instead. Hope that everyone likes it and would love to hear what you think of it! Here is the link to the challenge for anyone who would like to participate. http://www.cricut.com/messageboard/tm.aspx?m=6556636&mpage=1&key=&#6556636
