Simple Note

Sometimes we need cards just to throw in packages or just to send that aren't committal to boy or girl, friend or acquaintance. 



The ribbon came from the January kit which is sold out. :( But the April Kit just went live! Check it out HERE! (hurry before it's gone! The last one sold out quickly!)

The ink is also from Shop Pumpkin Spice - it's Memento in Rich Cocoa (my favorite brown color $3.64).

... so ... my good friend June lets me know that I've misspelled "Memento" - typing it "Momento" in this post... I thought the brand WAS Momento!!!! Hilarious! I'm SO sorry for all of you out there who have been reading "Momento" for 2 years and was wondering what brand I meant! Too funny. Thanks June! :) 

I also used my d-stress by Imaginisce™ to sand the edges and bring out the color underneath. 




I hope you enjoyed my post for today and that you will be back on Saturday for the Shop Pumpkin Spice Blog Hop!

3x3 Calling Cards

Hello!!! I am SO sorry I have been MIA for a couple of days! I went to a crop on Friday night - a Cricut Circle crop in San Jose and just had a BLAST! The ladies were lovely, it was low key, AND I even got something done! But I can't show it to you yet... :) 

At every Cricut Circle meet-up, we make old fashioned 3x3" calling cards. We can put whatever we want on the front and the back will have our information: name, email address, and blog site. It's like having business cards to trade with each other but super fun. 

I made three versions based on the amount of paper I had. All in all, we made 30 of these to pass around. 

If you ever have any questions about the Circle, I am ALWAYS happy to answer them as I LOVE the Circle! :) 




Recipe:




Above: Diana L. (left) and Lezlye L. (right) - both Shop Pumpkin Spice DT sisters! :) Lezlye and I have gotten together to craft before and we have an awesome time together! 



Above: I was SOOOOO tickled pink to meet Lori (Got2BeCrafting). She is JUST as sweet in person as she is online and I hope to see LOTS more of her and to call her a long time crafting friend. 



 This is Shannon Learner from Provo Craft showing us how to do our make and take for the night! She is so super sweet. We really had a blast with her! A HUGE thanks to PC for sponsoring and coordinating the event! 



Somehow I avoided getting my picture taken but next time I want to take pics with everybody! :) 



Have a lovely day and I'll be back on Wednesday with my Shop Pumpkin Spice post for the week! :)

My Pink Designer Showcase - a baby card

Have you ever had a picture just come out SOOO weird??? That button is the SAME COLOR as the dark pink in the butterfly's body in real life! And it came out that funky orange in the pic! I almost ripped it off, put on a new button and took another pic! I can't stop staring at it! haha. You'll just have to use your imagination for that part! :) 

For the My Pink Designer showcase, we were challenged to "think spring" and to make something using yellow, green, and blue as well as a butterfly, Cricut cut, and either Happiest Moments, Buggy Punnies, Tweetie Hoo Puns, or More Punnylicious. Well, I have all but one of those so I had my pick of the litter! :) 

I was inspired by the pinwheels that American Crafts put our recently and thought, "I will make my own!"




Recipe:




Make sure you hop on over to My Pink Stamper's blog to see the rest of the girls' Springy inspiration!
