Card Makin Mamas, #17

I can't believe how this blog has exploded! I never thought in a million years that there would be so many Card Makin Mamas in the blog-o-sphere!! Thanks to all of you for making it AH-mazing!!

This time around we want to see animals! Any kind of animal. We are being sponsored by Karen's Doodles and she was gracious enough to let us work with her images. When I saw this bunny, I had to have! There was no question!

As a lot of you know I have been creatively blocked for about 2 weeks. SO frustrating. Having all of these ideas and not being able to turn them out takes its mental tole! BUT, thank goodness its back....hopefully to stay! Phew!

I wanted to do something different so I just googled a few words to see what I could come up with. I really wanted some jelly beans in this project, for whatever reason...and I came across this post. Simply fantastic! Mine doesn't hold a candle construction-wise, but I love it anyway!

Don't forget to pop over and check out the rest of the design team's work! Stay Crafty!

Rawer!!

Today I am one of the cuties being featured over at Hello Cutie

In this project I used a skirt from 99 cent day at goodwill, buttons from a suit jacket...also from 99 cent day, and the mouth was cut from an old jacket. 

I was inspired by: Rebecca Danger and her lil monsters. Since I can't knit for anything, I used a knitted material and sewed it together. Isn't he darling? I can't wait to make more lil creatures!!

Be sure to check out the other ladies being featured over at Hello Cuties today, and Stay Crafty!

Today Hello Cutie Goes Live

I am so excited to share this new and fantastic blog started up by sweet friend, Lizzie! Hello Cutie Challenges. Its a great new challenge blog for any kind of crafter. Until the last 6 months or so, I was almost strictly a paper crafter, but I am finding that I actually enjoy so many kinds of things! This blog is going to be chock full of inspiration for every kind of crafter and I can't wait to get started!

This first challenge is a fantastic color challenge!!

I think this color palate will go in my permanent color inspiration! Its fantastic! Here is my project. A card for a friend/co-worker of mine who recently found out she is pregnant. I used a Stamping Bella stamp, and My Minds Eye Papers with K and Company Papers. I used Studio K Fun Flock for the teddy bear and tried to add lots of other details. 

I can't wait to see what you crafties come up with! I would love to see my Card Makin Mamas support a fellow card makin mama in her new venture! Stay crafty!
