My Provocraft Card Contest entry

If you hadn't heard Provo Craft is launching a new product on January 20th on HSN. Jinger and Provo Craft announced on there facebook page that they were giving us a chance to win the new product from Provo Craft and Anna Griffin. The Challenge was to make a card using something Anna Griffin and using Don Juan, Winter Lace (seasonal) and Wall Décor & More Cartridge. Well the only one of those 3 cartridges that I currently have is Wall Decor & More. I love Anna Griffin products and sadly I couldn't find anything in my arsenal of supplies. I hit my local craft stores and could only find single sheet's of paper.  So the printed paper on this card is Anna Griffin and the Guitar and the "you rock" were cut using the Wall Decor & More. I used silver stickles on the letters.
To me it seems so plain so I'm sure it won't go far but it was fun to participate and I hope to see other people's entries.

Thank you gift set

Ok I wish I could take credit for this project but I can not. I got this idea from Craft Junkie Too. It was from her videos # 125, 126 and 127. I switched up a couple of things but this was my take on her project.

My mother in law was so kind to come into our home and take care of the kiddos and things for a whole week while I was having my surgery. I wanted to do something for her. I think she'll like it.

The ribbon I used for the handle is a light pink ribbon. The brads are pearl brads made by Recollections. The Tulle I got from my local Dollar store and the flowers were just random flowers laying around.

For the butterfly I used Wall Decor and More. I doodled around the butterfly with a white pen and the photo is hard to see but I have 3 i-rock gems on each of the wings.

I used a stamp set I bought at Joann's. I think it was Fiskars but I threw away the package so I don't know for sure. The phrase says, "you make my heart flutter".

These are the seals I made for the envelopes.

 I made a total of 7 cards. One card for her telling her how much I really  appreciated her and the other 6 will be blank inside for her to do with what she wants.

Thank you cards!!

While I was going through my surgery people came in and brought my family meals. What a great comfort knowing they are taken care of. I had my mother in law there and my daughter is a great cook but it was one less thing they had to worry about. Then once I got home we recieved a few meals so it was a relief for me to not have to burden the family to make dinner. I am so Thankfull for all the ladies that took time out of there lives to make mine easier. I made them each Thank you cards with matching envelopes.

This cowboy hat card is for a gal that has the cutest little 3 yr old boy who is always wearing a cowboy hat and his favorite color is pink. I used the Cricut Cake cartridge Birthday cakes for the cowboy hat and the Martha Stewart border punch.

 This card I used the new Smiley Cards for the first time and I used the peachy keen Simple sallies stamps for the first time as well. I think it turned out pretty cute. The punched flower border I used was from Recolections.

 This butterfly card I used the Wall Decor and More Cartridge, Martha stewart border punch and the i-rock. The photo doesn't show but there are little i-rock crystals on the butterfly.

 I made this card using only the Imagine. I used the best friends cartridge for the girl and the polk a dot background paper. I used Beyond Birthdays cartridge on the Imagine for the thank you. I also used the i-rock for the bling.I then printed the girl on the card, right onto the envelope.

 This card is actually for a customer at my store who heard of my surgery and sent me a get well card. I thought that was so sweet. I needed a not girly card since he is male. I came up with the piano. I don't know him really so I don't know if he is into music but I figured music is for anyone. I used the new Quarter Note cartridge, which I love by the way.

 Here is another card made with the Imagine. I used the Lori's Garden cartridge and again printed the butterfly right on the envelope.

Good Times

I used my Imagine with the Nursery Tails Cartridge for this LO. I downloaded the new update from Provocraft for the Imagine and it now allows for full sheet printing and this is what you get. I thought it turned out really nice. It's hard to see but I layered the butterflies and dragon flies and added some stickles to the flowers. The pink paper is also printed with the I. The good times was from the Wall Decor and more Cart filled green in the Imagine, printed and cut.

My first YUDU project!

I have had my YUDU machine since March and have yet to use this thing. To be honest it was rather intimidating. But I decided to give it shot and make something we could wear for Halloween. I used the Wall Decor and More Cartridge. It all started when my daughter and I found these T-shirts at the $.99 only store. I thought I should start with something inexpensive so if I screw it up I won't be too upset. The orange Tee was the very first attempt. I did get some bleed off the side. The next one I learned to tape the sides so that it wouldn't go through.

My sons shirt is the orange and the purple is my daughters. I wanted to make the Hubby and I black shirt. The problem I had was that I didn't have any YUDU white paint. But I did have pink. So I was going to make mine with a black Tee and Pink design. I didn't clean the screen first because I thought it might give it a little swirl affect. Well this is what I got...





I thought wow this looks kinda grey with a slight pink ting but not alot. So I had to make the hubby's with the pink. They really do look sharp. I feel that the photo just doesn't do them justice. I now can't wait to do my next YUDU project. Thanks for looking! ~Sarah
