3D Chandeleir!!
Hello friends! Look what I made for my daughter. I made it in her favorite color pink too! This 3D chandelier is on Cricut Events Girls Makeup Party Cartridge! This chandelier is so cute! What girl doesn't want a chandelier hanging from their ceiling? This cart has a lot of great girl cut on it. My daughter loves this cart :)

I cut the chandelier @ 5 1/2 in. I cut each chandelier cut twice on pink 12 x 12 in card stock and I cut each chandelier cut one time each out on chip board. I adhered the pink card stock to outside of chip board on each side. I did this so the chandelier would be more sturdy. Used i-rock to adhered the silver gems, added some acrylic beads and silver chain to the top of chandelier. You know me!! I had to make this chandelier shine up with a lot of glitter:)
Linking this project to this challenge. Simmon Says Stamp Challenge Blog. Simmon Says "Anything go this week" :) Hope you all like my chandelier.
Have a great week friends. Thanks so much for looking ;)

A heart card!
Hello everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend. We had a busy one here. Here is a card I made today for a friend. She wanted a card with a heart on it. This is what I came up with. I embossed the card with Cuttlebug embossed folder (Grace's Frame) I used the MS Flower Bed edge punch on blue glitter paper and Plantin Schoolbook to cut pink heart image. Added a white foam heart sticker, blue ribbon, pen stitched around card and stamped With Love on card. This was a easy card to make. Hope you like this card :)

"Owl always love you" hanging Card!
Happy Tuesday everyone! I hope you had a great Labor day. Here is a card I designed with my Gypsy. I will share the cut file freebie. All you have to do is email me for this cut file and I will email it to you. Let me know if you want the Gypsy or Cricut DesignStudio cut file. I will convert the Gypsy cut file in to a DesignStudio cut file for any one wanting a DS cut file. You can click on any photo to make a little bigger:)
I used Create a Critter Cartridge for owl image, Plantin SchoolBook for heart and Mini Monograms for scallop image. I cut each image (3) times and adhered them together to make card more sturdy. I stamped "Owl always love you" with alphabet stamps. Punched a hole at top of card with my crop-a-dile and set the eyelet. Adhered some heart gems, flower, google eyes and tied a piece of green tulles in eyelet. Now it can hang on something. A cute card for someone special:)
Another close up of card :) I love how this card turned out!
Here's the back of card. You can see how I welded the owl to Scallop image.
I'm linking this project to Craft your passion challenge #74. Have a great week and thanks for stopping by:)
