Prickly Pear Not so Prickly

Just a simple little birthday card with some Cricut cuts (the scallop circle and the circle) and some complements from the Prickly Pear Collection

Prickly Pear Complements

Prickly Pear Paper

Magical Day

Using the Artistry cartridge cut a bunch of the "icon - 1" images out of the Little Dreamer Paper. 

Then create the unicorn from the Thin cut and stamp bundle Little Dreamer

Ta Da... easy as that! Enjoy!

Vibrant

Simple yet stunning! This card took about 10 minutes to make, so easy! 

Steps to complete this are as follows:

1. cut out a circle from you Cricut about 3.5 inches - this will be used as a stencil. 

2. grab your favourite ink colours and a finger dauber - I used Lagoon, Lemon and Willow

3. place "stencil" on the card face and start with yellow ink and smear it on the card. then continue with the blue and green working in the circle to achieve the look you would like.

4. let dry for a bit and then take a spray pen and spritz where you have inked and this will leave a "droplet effect" on the inked part. Remove stencil.

5. open your No Worries stamp set and your archival ink and stamp the design you want on the card. 

6. Matte the card face with 4x5.25 black paper and 3.75x5 is the size of the white piece that you inked on. Then take a ruler and trace a line around the edge with a journaling pen.

Hooray!

Lama love! This folded card was simple to make yet has some wow factor to it! I cut out some fencing off of the cricut and HAND cut (yes I know... it was a little painful! lol) all the cactus peieces! The card dimensions are 11x4.25 with the front card face folded in half. 

Catcha Later!

Little Dreamer - AKA STINKIN CUTE!

What to  even say about this playful beauty that you can already tell from looking at it! The cuteness scale is overflowing at an easy 11 out of 10!

Magical wouldn't be complete with this perfect glitter title to finish off the page! I also love how it doesn't shed glitter all over either! That is magic! close to my heart has done a great job of making the glitter stick unlike some other companies where it all ends up in the bottom of you page protector!

Glacier and thistle floss accent this page perfectly as do these cute glitter gems! Yep glitter is gold! Check it all out HERE!

No Worries...make me happy!

Clustering some bits and pieces really add some character to the layout! a few random waves from the Artbooking cartridge... some clouds from Artiste....Oh and the complements they are little pieces of cuteness! The little startfish and palm trees are to die for!

Check out the big beautiful ombre title sticker! Check it all out HERE!

I love the great colour combo on Prickly Pear! I love that it has bold colours but it doesn't overwhelm you with them! 

 I really wanted to catch the traditional feel with this paper on the first layout I made with it...now i can crawl out of "the box"! But I really felt that the colours needed to be honoured with some Mexican style and they are going to go fabulous with my Puerto Vallarta pictures from this February's incentive trip!

The cactus were the perfect addition to this fiesta style layout! They were from the 

FLOWER MARKET CRICUT CARTRIDGE! 

Oh and check out that great blue burlap ribbon! awesome for keeping it in one strand or pulling apart!
