There is something Marvelous in all things Nature, LO

Happy Monday to all!!

I hope your week is off to a good start! I am here to share with you a LO I created for my very first post as a DT member for Exploring Cricut. Today a new challenge begins:  "It's a Spring Thing" create a card, layout, or paper craft and it must include at least 1 Button, 2 Cricut Cuts, 3 colors of pattern paper or cardstock.

Here is my take:


Here is a close up of some of the details ;)
Creative supplies:
Cricut Cartridges:
Disney Pooh and Friends
 Wood Frame, Layer 1
Bees (Pooh1 icon and Pooh1 Icon+shift), I adjusted the bees a little so the wings are "translucent", applied Glossy accents to the empty space on the wings
Clouds: Piglet (Icon)
Grass: Tigger3 ( Icon)
Simply Charmed (Sun)
Cricut Alphabet ( rotated, welded and cut the text at 1.75 in)
Patterned papers are from : DCWV Adhesive paper prints (Border Punch  Strips)
and Stack 8
Brown and kraft card stock for the frame
12"x12" Baby Blue Card stock for the base
Yellow paper is from my stash :)
Inks: yellow, red, blue,  to color in the tittle words
TH distress inks in wild honey and crushed olive
Glossy Accents:Tittle
Staples
                                                      Navy Blue, brown and Black Sarasa TM Gel Pens
Faux and real stitching
Button



  For this LO I used DCW's April's Stack-aholic Template.

 I hope you enjoyed your visit,  I look forward to see your creations for this challenge!  I will be back tomorrow with another Exploring Cricut project....I hope to read from you soon!

Exploring Cricut Xmas in July Blog Hop (pictures updated)

Good morning cricuteers!! I hope your week is off to a fabulous start! This fine Monday morning brings another Exploring Cricut Challenge! . This week we are having a Christmas in July Blog hop/ Challenge. So If you came from Michelle S blog you are in the right place! If you just happen to stumble upon my blog ;) and would like to check out all the inspiration provided by the Exploring Cricut  team please start here. There might be a few surprises along the way ::hint:: I hope you join us on this blog hop and challenge!!    For my project I Created a Card/Gift bag Decor. I have seen some " Card Holders" that you add to the front of a plain GB to help you "show off" your card, after all you have invested time and effort into it so why not showcasing it as part of the gift wrap :).. ( But for the life in me I cannot recall where I saw them or what they are called :?)  Got inspired from this idea . So if anyone knows please let me know so I can give credit...
