Tacky Tuesday Challenge #1

I am very excited to announce right here that
my BFF Ruthie and I have decided to
start a once a month challenge! "Tacky Tuesday's Challenge"
will be on the 3rd Tuesday of each month.

We will choose a "Tacky" cut from a Cricut cart and the challenge
 will be to make a card that includes the
chosen cut and a play on words.
The challenge will last for two weeks and then we will choose a winner via random.org.  The winner will receive a small gift and a button that they can proudly display on their blog. The main page for the group is on FACEBOOK , we figured that was the easiest way.  All you have to do is log into Facebook and type in "Tacky Tuesday Challenge" and the group will come up, and then join the group it that simple!!


You do not have to have a blog to participate, all you have to do is be a member of the group and post a photo of the card that you made! That's it! If have a blog and want to link back to you blog, that would be great too! Easy enough?

Okay so luttuce get started...

So I decide to make a babies first Christmas ornament.

Both my project where cut out of the

Simply Charmed Cricut Cart... and yes I do own other carts...

I'm just hooked on this one right now...

Look how cute it makes these little baby carriages...

The first one is for a Little Girl doesn't she look sweet in PINK...

{I left room to put name and year}

Does their sweet face just look perfect with PKS Basic Paper Doll Face

used a little chalk to do their rosy cheeks ...

Stitched around with gel pens

Stamps sentiments are from

Pink by Design 

The little boy is so handsome in his baby blue buggy ride...

{left room for name and date}

Both where cut at 4" so they nice size for Christmas ornaments

to make them sturdy I cut 2 bases of the carriage shape

and shadowed in white...

I wanted them to be able to still fit in a baby book.

I just think they both turned out adorable...

Flaunt It Friday Challenge # 3

If you here for Kathy Surprise Birthday Bash scroll down to following post... but don't pass up the chance to join in the
Flaunt it Friday Challenge...

Thank you so much for joining us for our

Flaunt It Friday Challenge,

This weeks Challenge is to create a card, 

layout or project using My Favorite
Cricut Cart Simply Charmed

Lemon and Cup Cut on Page 48

Here my card for the challenge...

Doesn't it just look so cute with the Peachy Keen Faces
I used Laughy Taffy and Retro Paper Doll

Now I used the Pink by Design

stamps for my sentiments

What is nice about clear stamps is you can

 use more than one stamp to create a cute sentiment...

I used the "MY" from

All in the Family

and the "Main Squeeze" from

Simply Everything Stamp Set

Now to make this card pop out

I stitched around the edges using a white gel pen

I also chalked Mrs. Lemonade face give her Rosy cheeks

and a bit of eye shadow, red lips was done with

my Bic Mark*it Permanent markers..

My Mr. Lemonhead I just used white gel pen to

highlight his glasses and chalk the cheeks..

I can't wait to see what you all come up with over at Flaunt It Friday
