GIRLS NIGHT OUT---using going places

this is another oldie of a cartridge but with so many nice images, i am thinking i should dissect it soon too...hehe

i made this card with it

Fun in the City
5.5" x 4.25"

i think is even cooler in real life (big wink)

you will find this image on page #120
 (#39 on the overlay)
and cut at 4" high

the patterned papers are from my mind's eye and the little bling is from webster pages. i had those for a long while and finally put them to good use.
---i love how this color combo looks---
such an easy card!

REMEMBER, we start a new series this wednesday. we will be working with paper dolls dress up, in case you want to stop by and look at our projects.

thanks so much for stopping by!

 DAILY LIFE: well, as you might know by now, i did not get picked to be in the  jinger adams design team. :(

i was a bit apprehensive when i applied and now i see i did not stand a chance among the talented ladies who made it. plus, i had an older project :(. when i submitted it, they were not asking for a new project. i guess they changed it and i did not know. i am  very happy for the awesome ladies who made it, they have more experience, businesses and some even work for pc. good luck to all of them. if you want, click HERE for jinger's blog to see who made it. i can't wait to see what jinger has planned for them.
on another hand, my son was over for the weekend. he came in the bus and went back on a plane. he is having THE LIFE, hehe. i am so happy for him and he made my whole weekend while over. now, until may when he will be coming for summer vacations. time flew and did not: all at the same time. he is almost done with his freshmen year already. and i survived it...hehe!

LOVE IS SPOKEN HERE

i had to take food over the musical rehearsal last night and decided to stay for a while to watch them practice and oh my lord...this show is coming out AWESOME!. no bragging here but my son is so so so talented he is really a natural, and doing a super great job with Lil Abner...and his voice...oh my oh my. they will get a dvd and when my son gets his, i will upload a bit of it so you see i am not exaggerating :)

we are busting with pride here..hehe

thanks for the good vibes!!!!

anyhow...i had time to make a card.

Love is Spoken Here

5.35"

 using my gypsy and cindy loo image# 25, i welded the two scalloped circles together. i then cut four more scallops in different sizes. one was cut for the inside and the rest you can see on the front.

the family silhouette you can find it on going places image#3.

the sentiment "love is spoken here" from dear my pink stamper clear stamp set is more faithful sayings and you can find the whole set here. 

as you can see,  i messed up while stamping, tried to fix it and while it might not look too good on the pics it does look better in person. ;p or so i think, lol

 have a great wednesday

and remember the blog hop on friday night starting 8PM central and 9PM eastern time (where I am)

love you all!

GOING PLACES LAYOUT

AND....

this is my haul from Michael's and ACM yesterday on my

ROAD TRIP

 I made this layout for a Cricut Circle challenge. 
I did not win but I am very proud of my layout. I need more practice with them especially with the 12 x 12's. I am an 8 x 8 or 8.5" x 11 inches layout lady, :)

Isn't the background paper beautiful? 
It is a street map patterned paper and the one behind a map patterned paper. I adhered the lace with my glue gun, the ribbon is from American Crafts, the butterflies from punches and the title from the Going Places cricut cartidge.

Thanks for your comments!


I have been feeling empty nested lately and your comments always make my day and lift me up.

GOING PLACES FANTABULOUS CRICUT CHALLENGE

Fantabulous Cricut

http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com/2010/08/challenge-me-monday-25.html

 is having their Challenge Me Monday.

These are some of the requirements:

""Challenge #25
Road Trip
Create a card or project incorporating a vacation or travel.

As always there needs to be an image cut using your cricut on your project to be eligible for the prizes"". 

  

This is my entry

Going Places

3.25 inches high by 7.5 inches wide

 The card base is from Just Because Cards image #10 and used sideways.

The luggage is from Going Places cut at 2 inch. All images have been inked and outlined.

The bicycle is also from Going Places and cut at 2 inches high.

The papers used are from K&CO. Road trip Collection and the sentiment is one of the collection stickers: WEHVFUN, cute, uh?

These two photos to the left are the inside of the card and the border and die cut are The Road Trip stack.

The blue paper was zig zagged by hand (OH MY!) lol  with the old shaped scissors I had in the very back of my closet :) The map in the background is from Going Places too and I had to stretched it out a bit to cover most of the card front.

Well, this is it for now.

Wish me luck in the  

Challenge Me Monday
