Gobble 'til you Wobble

  The "Crafts with Cutter"s gals at My Paper Crafting are sharing their turkey projects today.  I used my Gypsy and the Three Birds on Parade cartridge to create this guy.  I used the plain bird image (the first in the handbook), added the Pilgrim's hat and then used the asterisk from the font feature to create his tailfeathers.  He's mounted on a wobble so he'll truly gobble and wobble. I hope you'll join us for this week's challenge.  One last turkey and then it's the home stretch for the Christmas holiday.  Just link your card to the wonderful Wednesday CWC post.  

 

Thanks for stopping by.  I am so thankful for my loyal friends who visit often and take the time to leave comments.  You are all a blessing to me and I appreciate your support.

 

It's the Grillin' & Chillin" Bug Hop!

To celebrate the beginning of summer, Barb over at BugBites, is hosting two consecutive weekends of

 "Bug Hops".  How fun is that?

This weekend we're all about Grillin'.  Each designer along the bug trail is featuring a project based on the

Grillin' and Chillin' theme.

If you've come from Kerie's blog, you're buggin right along.  If you just dropped in to visit my blog and think you'd like to hop along, you can click HERE to start from the beginning.

OK, here's the exciting news - you, too, can participate by creating a project and linking it up to BugBites for a chance to win a Big Prize.  But, there's a twist.  Your project must include at least one Cricut cut and at least one of the critters that have been hidden within some of the bug stop blogs.  Be sure to visit all the bug stops to find your critter choices.  And, be sure to check out the blog candy being offered along the way.

For my Grillin' project I made my very first side step card!! 

I just love this little bird with all its layers from Three Birds on Parade.  I used Accent Essentials to create the frame for the sentiment.  The sun is from A Child's Year and the grass from Plantin.  The picnic goodies are from an embellishment pack. 

Now for the blog candy.  If you're kind enough to leave a comment, your name will go into a drawing to win 2 chipboard 6 x 6 album kits. Just a little thank you for stopping by.  If you'd care to become a follower, that would be wonderful.  Do you see how close to 200 followers I am?

 Be sure to let me know how to contact you.

 The winner's name will be posted on Tuesday, May 31.

Your next stop is Saundra at  http://luvscrappingtogether.blogspot.com.  Hop on over to see what she has for you today.

If you get lost along the way, you can return to Bug Bites for a list and the links to all the bug stops.

Remember, once you have hopped to all the bug stops, it's your turn to show us your Grillin' and Chillin' project.  Make sure to include a Cricut cut and one of the hidden critters.  Link up your project at

BugBites by Midnight CST May 30 to be eligible for the big prize.

Hugs and Happy Crafting,

It's April Showers at Fantabulous Cricut

This week's Challenge Me Monday theme is April Showers.  I hope you'll drop by and see the wonderful designs being shared by the team.  Please join in the fun and link your creation to the Challenge Me Monday post.  Just be sure your design includes a cricut cut and either an umbrella or a hat (or both). 

I used 3 Birds on Parade to create my card.  The paper is DCWV Nana's Kids and the ribbon is Bazzill Basics.  The raindrops were in my embellishment stash.  As always, my card fits an A2 envelope.

                     I'm also entering this card in the April Showers challenge at My Sheri Crafts. 

Next week, the entire design team will be participating in the Fantabulous Cricut Blog Crawl.  You'll have the entire week to visit each blog, get lots of wonderful spring inspiration, and have a chance to win blog candy along the way.  I'll be posting more details and a picture of my blog candy later in the week.

I hope your week is off to a delightful start.

Hugs and Happy Crafting,

Larelyn
