Wacky Wednesday #59 and Challenge 4 At Exploring Cricut

Challenge 4 At Exploring Cricut - I just came across this blog and realized this is a perfect place to share my Thanksgiving project.
More Than Favors  Wacky Wednesday #59 is a Thanksgiving Theme.  I usually do not make cards for Thanksgiving, but I had the idea to make name cards for the table for all my guests. I used my Cricut Cartridge Create A Critter to make the Turkeys and Plantin Schoolbook for the Names. The turkeys are attached with wobbles for added fun!
Here is a group of the cards:

H2H Metal Mania

This week the Challenge on the Close To My Heart Challenge Blog is to incorporate something metal into your project.  I made this Mini Scrapbook for my daughter.  She just bought her first house and I thought this would be perfect for the "Moving Day" pictures.  I used the "Sweet Home" Paper Pack and My Stickease.  The cover has a metal "key" to represent the key to the house.







H2H's color challenge

I made this card for the Close To My Heart Challenge Blog . It is a color challenge using the colors Autumn Terracotta, Juniper and Bamboo. The stamp sets I used are B1116 - The Beauty of Christmas and A1115 - A Holiday.

Winter Wonderland

It has been a very long tiome since I posted any of my projects on my blog! Since "SNOW" is in the forcast (in higher elevations) in Western New York, I thought it would be a good time to start my Christmas Cards.

Over the weekend my friend Lisa & I worked very hard to make a set of cards with the "WONDERLAND" paper pack from Close To My Heart. We got them all started together on Saturday, then I finished mine up on my own on Sunday. 

Here is the first card I am posting (more to follow):

Heart 2 Heart Challenge

This week's Heart 2 Heart Challenge is to use Cardstock Only, no printed paper.  The tree and leaves are from the CTMH stamp set "Grown With Love" and the monkey is cut from the Cricut cartridge "Create A Critter".  The monkey spins from tree to tree when you tilt the card.
