Dusty Crophopper

I created this card with a graphic from Disney Clips.

I used paper that I found at Michael's.  

The orange and blue are from the Marocains pack.

The green is from the Trucks and Trains pack,

and the brown is the Kraft brown.

It is awesome that my Stampin' Up inks coordinated so well with these papers!

I used Tempting Turquoise, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Grey and Crumb Cake to ink around my images.

My clouds are found on the Cricut Create a Critter Cartridge,

the corn is from Paper Doll Dress Up,

and the dirt is from Best of Pixar.

I used foam squares to attach the larger corn and Dusty.

Batman!!!

Made this Valentine for my DH!!!

Who doesn't love a man in uniform!!! Right???

This is a full 12x12 card using the Cricut Cartridge Batman: The Brave and the Bold.  The burst in the background is from the Cricut Cartridge Best of Pixar.  I used my Gypsy to help me set up the card.  My DH is a super hero to me... so I thought this fit for Valentine's Day!!!

Monsters!!!

I just couldn't resist!  My little three year old niece had a Monsters Inc. Birthday Party and I just had to make her a Disney Monsters Inc. card. :)

Sulley is from the Cricut Cartridge Best of Pixar and he was cut at 11.60",  yes this is a 12 x 12 card!  It has a monster on it, it needed to be BIG!!! :)  Sulley's fur is cut from Core'dination cardstock and is textured.  The other papers used were from Michael's Recollections cardstock (Cool Water & Cape Cod).  Sulley's belly is smooth cardstock and his spots have been flocked with Doodlebug's Lilac Flock.  His horns have Tinsel Glitter on them (I got this cheap at Michael's in their dollar bin 4/$1).  His eyes and nose are covered with Glossy Accents and his teeth have Stickles on them.  That is one thing I loved about this card, it has LOTS of texture!  The background paper is from a DCVW Glitter Pack I have had for ages!

You make me Smile!

This card was made from the Cricut Cartridges: Sesame Street Holidays, Best of Pixar, and Paper Dolls for Everyday.  All of the paper used is from Stampin' Up!  I love the quality of their paper it is thick and cuts great in the Cricut.

Elmo is cut at 5", the sun at 1.71", the cloud at 4" and the sand at 1.31".  I used my Gypsy to decide how big I measured each one, that is why the measurements are a little funky.  Elmo and the sun are both from the Sesame Street Holidays cartridge, the cloud is from Paper Dolls For Everday, and the sand is from the Best of Pixar cartridge.  The sand can be found behind Dory using the icon feature.  Here is another card I made using the same sand.  

The paper colors I used from Stampin' Up are: Real Red (Elmo), Pumpkin Pie (nose), Wild Wasabi (shorts and mask), and River Rock (Sand).  I put Glossy Accents on Elmo's mask and flippers to make them look wet.  The sand and Elmo were attached using pop dots to add dimension.  The sentiment is from the Pink By Design Simply Everything stamp set.

You Are My Super Hero!!!

Made this card for my hubby for our anniversary!!!  I got the idea from the Obsessed with Scrapbooking blog.  Since I didn't have the Cricut Superman Cartridge at the time, I just got online and looked for free superman graphics.

I used the print and cut feature on my Silhouette to cut out Superman.  The cut itself is a little ragged.  I tried to adjust the cut lines through the Silhouette Studio software, but that was WAY more than I was bargaining for and stopped.  The hubby didn't seem to notice :), or was to kind to mention it!!!

I embossed the blue background with the Cuttlebug diamond folder, and the yellow burst in the background is from the Cricut Best of Pixar Cartridge!!!

Just Keep Swimming!!!

I made this card for a friend that is enduring chemotherapy for breast cancer.  A member of our church gave a talk to our congregation a while ago that has always stuck with me.  She talked about how sometimes when we are in thick of trials in our lives the only thing we can do is...just keep swimming!

This card was made using the Cricut Cartridge Best of Pixar.  I was inspired by two blogs I follow, Glora's Crafts and Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons.  Glora's blog helped me to add dimension to my Nemo with my Sakura Pens, and Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons helped me to create the background.  I also used my Cuttlebug to emboss the blue paper using the Sizzix embossing folder Bubbles.  I used Glossy Accents to make some of my bubbles appear water like, and foam adhesive squares to give Nemo a 3D effect.
