CardzTV challenge #1- Create a Card Using 3 Colors. (not including black and white)

Hello crafters!
Welcome back to another season of CardzTV challenges from the card design team! I'm so very excited to continue to be designing for Mary with her terrific stamp sets. as well as share the stage with so many amazing, talented ladies! It is an honor and privilege! This week's challenge was to design a card using only 3 colors. (not including black and white). This was quite the challenge! I decided to create a back to school card using one of my favorite Cricut cartridges: Teddy Bear Parade. I also used the Recess cartridge for the school house. The stamp sets I used from CardzTV were Just Saying and Summer Fun.  The 3 colors I chose were red, green and blue. (Although I forgot about the brown I used for the bears!) lol. I had such fun creating this card and it has special meaning for me because I am a teacher! Hope you enjoy this challenge and don't forget to hop on over to all of the other wonderful card designer blogs! Have fun!

CardzTV Blog Hop- "Anything Goes!"

Hello crafters!
Welcome to my blog! I'm the last stop in the CardzTV Blog Hop "Anything Goes"! I hope you have enjoyed your trip to all of these wonderful, creative blogs created by these wonderful designers! I love being a part of Mary's card design team and it's so much fun to see what these creative ladies have come up with for each challenge. My card has a Summer, Hawaiian theme to it. I used the Cricut Teddy Bear Parade cartridge for this darling Hawaiian hula dancer, as well as the Life Is A Beach cartridge for the 2 palm trees. My papers are from Doodlebug and Michael's card stock and I used a Fiskars grass punch and Martha Stewart decorative punch for the inside. The CardzTV stamp set I used for all sentiments is from the "Summer Fun" set. Don't forget! You can find all of Mary's wonderful stamp sets at her blog, www.cardztvstamps.blogspot.com!

CardzTV Challenge: Create a Card Using Ribbon

Hello crafters!
This week's CardzTV challenge is to create a card using ribbon. For this challenge, I used the Cricut Baby Steps cartridge and 2 sets of CardzTV stamp sets: Father's Day and Hugs and Kisses. I found this darling little girl holding a heart shaped balloon and thought the outside sentiment was perfect for the image! My papers are from a Recollections Valentine's Day paper pad and I found some cute red and white gingham ribbon to use for both the outside and inside of the card. Can't wait to see what you all create using ribbon, so come on over to www.cardztv.blogspot.com and check it out!
