Miss Kate Cuttables Guest Designer: Raccoon Mug

Hi everyone! I hope you are all having a great Friday.
Today I am THRILLED to be a Guest Designer for Miss Kate Cuttables. 

I love Miss Kate's designs and this one has been one of my favorites!

I needed to make myself a cute Fall mug 
(although post-project, I am wishing I did this little guy in purple)

 For my project, I used Fall Raccoon 080918 and it can be found here
I loved how cute it is against my orange mug and I can't wait to drink my next Pumpkin Spice Latte in it!

Thanks for stopping by today and enjoy your weekend.

Happy Tuesday everyone!
It is rainy and parts of our area are flooding in Fredericton, NB. Insane!!!!

Great time for some crafting fun though.

DCD: Easter Basket

Happy Diva Tuesday!
Wow Easter is this week and I have done nothing! lol
I hurt myself last week by falling on the ice. Badly bruised my back and cracked a rib. My goodness the pain.

Finally feel like myself (well on the road that way) and decided to make my children their own personalized Easter Baskets. 
Only one of them wanted an actually bunny!

My file comes from fontbundles.net and I love this little Monogrammed bunny.
I hope you enjoy this cute little image!  Brynn LOVES her new bunny especially that it has her name on it

Go Canada Go!

Happy Diva Tuesday!!!

Today at Die Cuttin' Divas, our challenge is to make anything
BUT A CARD!

And for some reason, I really struggled with this project. Too many ideas, so little time.

Until I went on the Cricut Design Space and seen this amazing hockey onesie idea and I decided to make it for my son who turns 10 on Sunday!

Here it is....
 I LOVED how this turned out!!!!!

I used my Siser vinyl in red and black to make the design.

GO TEAM CANADA GO!

DCD #353: Snowflakes Challenge

Happy Tuesday everyone! 
Is Winter over yet? I am not a Winter person but do love this weeks challenge at Die Cuttin' Divas challenge.
This week our theme is
Snowflakes

For my project, I made a Winter decor wall hanging using an Apex Cuttable Design called Walking in a Winter Wonderland and can be found by clicking here. 

Here it is...
 I bought an old chalkboard frame at Michaels and used a 40% coupon. I painted the pine frame with some Cherry Cobbler paint and put a sealant on it. 

 All vinyl used is 631 Vinyl by Cricut that came in a pack. Not to bad! 
I added some various sized snowflakes and different designs of snowflakes to complete my project. I found these on Cricut Design space but you could use any cartridge that has snowflakes on it.
I am loving my home decor project and it is perfect with my wall color and Winter theme of my house.

We really hope you join us tomorrow in our Snowflake challenge at Die Cuttin' Divas.

Happy Tuesday!
It has been FREEZING in New Brunswick, along with lots of snow.
So our Penguin theme for this weeks Die Cuttin' Divas challenge couldn't come at a better time.

 For my creation, I used Recollections cardstock. The card base is embossed cardstock.

 Card base and envelope were score by using Cricut's Score blade. 

The inside sentiment is used by using a Cricut fine point pen.

Please join us at Die Cuttin' Diva's this week for our penguin challenge.

Card Series #33: Baby it's COLD outside! (2018) Cricut Based Card

Happy first Tuesday of 2018! After a much needed break, I am back to crafting. It has been insane to say the least in my personal life, but I have missed crafting a lot. 
For Christmas, my amazing boyfriend bought me a Cricut Air 2 and it is PINK! I am so in love with this machine and thought I would attempt to tackle Design Space to make today's card.
The sketch I used, comes from our challenge this week at Die Cuttin' Divas. The wonderful Georgiana made our sketch and here it is. 
Here is a detailed description of how I made my creation. 



Thanks for Watching!
