WELCOME TO MY FIRST POST FOR THE CUTTING CAFE

hello all,

so happy to show you the rest of my sneak peek of my first project for my new team.

i am sure you know regina easter. she was the owner of the original bitten by the bug blog where she had another fabulous team creating projects using the cricut. when she closed it down she started working with her own digital images and opened 

the cutting cafe.

i was on the bitten by the bug2 team with heather, who came after the first was closed down. i had so much fun there too but i was dealing with lots of life stuff at the time and couldn't stayed for long.

anyway, that is a little of a background for you to know why i am so happy i am working with regina's files.

i always admired her work and i am so happy and proud to finally made it to her team. a bit apprehensive but i think is normal. you will be too if you see what these talented ladies in her team are all about.

i chose an oldie file for my project.

there are so many i would have loved to work with but i had to choose one and i chose the

 summer fun
my card is a round card

enough of the sneak peek, right? hehe
--i stamped the background waves with a so old wooden stamp from plaid i believe i could call it vintage right now--

the umbrella, the sandals, the beach bum sign and the starfish are included in the bundle. these are not the only images in this set, there are many more. actually, they are 33 images in this printable stamp set.
here is the link to the summer set and i warn you,
you will be amazed at all the gorgeous files regina has in her shop. and you will drool when you see all the inspiration offered. oh my, i can't hardly contain my excitement.

now, a bit about my card

the base for my card was done with the cricut cart called life's a party. i punched the two holes on the left with the cropadile to insert the pretty ribbon i found in my stash.  i made that cute bow with the help of a fork. i colored my images with the spectrum noirs alcohol markers. i am still avoiding the shading, lol.
