 IF you do NOT own a retired cartridge, just use any OLDER cart that you own!
 
Hi my friendly Bloggers!
For this challenge I wanted to use one of my digital's that I have been working on,I did not have a retired cartridge so I used the two oldest carts that I have.
For the three layered card shape I used "George Basic Shapes" and for the leaves I used "Doodlecharms" and for the sentiment I used Emma's stamps "This & That".And I also added a few cute buttons.
I hope you enjoy my little creation !

Jovan is also having a  Back to School challenge on her blog.
This year Back to School is special because it is my daughters last year of elementry school, next year she moves on to High School. Aparently in Canada our school year starts a little later than in the U.S.,we start the first week of Sept.and goes to the end of June, so we still have a little holiday time left.My children are always excited to start school so they can see all the friends they have not seen all summer and meet some new friends.

For this hop we all made  Back To School projects,I made a LO page with pictures of last years back to school.
I used cardstock from Me & My Big Ideas "Specialty cardstock".For the text I used "Celebrate with Flourish" cartridge and for the other cuts I used "Hello Kitty" and "Create a Critter" cartridges and also PK face.




This project  my Daughter and I made it together,we used Simply Charmed cartridge.It has a lot of fun school supplies on it! I also used some Peachy Keen faces,she LOVES to play along with there challenges.The challenge this week is Create a shaped card using PKS faces.
I will miss when she goes back to school, I will lose my scrapbooking partner.

 
I had also made some magnets on my last post which I have included in the photo below just to show how large her card is.She always likes to make her projects large.

Please be sure to visit all the blogs in the hop,the talented ladies have some wonderful projects for you to see.

Whimsical Wednesday Challenge!

Whimsical Wednesday Challenge! #18 "Back To School"

Create any type of project that has to do with school NO cards this week. Examples are-organizers, teachers gifts, book marks, decorated binder clips.Faith's challenge idea! :)

Hi my friendly Bloggers!

Another great challenge this week,I had fun making little projects for my kids.I made bookmarks and magnets.
The first one is a bookmark I made for my Son,I thought it turned out cute with that sweet little Pinocchio.But my Son said " Your not gonna make me take that to school are you " Oh well !!!
I used "Disney Classics" cartridge and one of Emma's stamps for the saying


This one I made for my daughter,she loves to read so she liked hers.I had seen this cut on a cartridge that I didn't have so I cut it out with my Gypsy.The apple is from "Create a Critter" cartridge with Peachy Keen face.



Here are my magnets,I used "Hello Kitty" cartridge for the apple and PK face
The Crayons I used " Simply Charmed" cartridge and for the bus I used "Nate's ABCs"

Throwback Thursday Challenge
Use ANY "OLDER" Cricut cartridge of YOUR choice, make it a CHRISTMAS THEME AND  PLEASE incorporate some MATERIAL somewhere on any project of your choice!

Hi my friendly Bloggers!
I made this card to enter 2 challenges.Peachy Keen &Throwback Thursday challenges!
I don't usually do two challenges at once and I was so behind on commenting and projects,so I decided to do one card for both challenges.With having the kids at home on summer break its a little harder to get things done.You just get strated something and then you hear MOMMM!!(LOL)
For this card I used " Jolly Holidays" cartridge for the cute little Elf faces and also Peachy Keen stamps"Critter Faces".For the cardstock Me & My Big Idea "Specialty Cardstock" and  the stamp I got at Micheals.For the hats I stole some felt from my daughters craft supplies.
Hope you like my little creation!
