My Sheri Crafts - Ch. 167 Pink and Pretty

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

It is time again for another fun and inspirational challenge at My Sheri Crafts. Our design team sister Peachy has chosen the theme for Ch. 167 - Pretty and Pink. She asks that we create a project using the color pink in celebration of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 

I started with a 5.5" x 5.5" square card cut from pink cardstock.

Cricut Cartridges:
3D Floral Home Decor - Using a Make It Now project Rose Box and Topper, I cut only the roses using pink cardstock. 
Edge to Edge - The white lattice is cut 5.5" wide.
Anna's Flourish Cards and Embellishments - Sentiment "Wishing you all the best" is written on the white lattice using the write feature in Cricut Design Space.
White crinkled ribbon is added as a finishing touch. I am pleased with the way this turned out, but of course, I love pink and roses!

Be sure to visit My Sheri Crafts to view all the pretty and inspiring projects from the design team and our guest designer. For more information, visit the individual blogs. Now it is your turn to play along with us! We look forward to seeing your Pink and Pretty projects.

Autumn Pumpkin

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

It is a gorgeous Autumn day in my area. Loving these cooler days we are having...not sure how long it will last. Inspires me to make another Fall card. Card is 5" x 6 1/2" cut from Recollections cream card stock. The patterned papers are K&Company paper pad..some left over from previous projects. I followed the instructions for the Folded Paper Frame at Split Coast Stampers. The frame begins with a 4 1/4 square of double sided patterned paper. Edges are cut with a corner punch. I do not have the name of that punch. I thought the frame would work well for my pumpkin!

Cricut Cartridges:
Autumn Celebrations - Pumpkin cut 2" wide.
Classroom - October-November - Leaf is cut 1.25" wide.
Gypsy Wanderings - Autumn is cut 3.75" wide.

Cuttlebug - Swiss Dots is used on the cream paper inside the folded frame.

I hand cut the corner papers of the card.

Challenges:
Cardz TV  - Ch 2 Fall icons --I used a pumpkin and leaves.
Die Cuttin Divas - Ch. 235 Anything Goes
Little Scrap Pieces  - Saturday Linky party
Sisterhood of Crafters - The Pumpkin Patch - Use a pumpkin

Sweet Hoilday Wishes

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Thanks to a couple of my favorite card challenges, I have made my first Christmas card for this year. Never too early to get started, I guess. Christmas season will soon be here! Card is cut from Recollections cream cardstock and measures 5" x 6 1/2". Papers are from left over projects.

Cricut Cartridges:
Santa's Village - After seeing the new updates to Cricut Design Space, I was excited to try the adding patterns to image layer feature. Christmas Grandma with cookies is a print and cut image. It is cut 3" wide. I used the new pattern feature to change the color/pattern of the plate.
Baby Steps - Simple Elegant Frame is cut 4.68" x 3.42". I used only the smaller inside frame. 
Winter Frolic - Phrase Sweet Holiday Wishes is cut 2.4" wide.

Challenges:

Welcome Back Fall

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Fall is back! I have been working on some Fall projects for my patio and it is not paper!! After several junking/antiquing trips for an old wooden ladder, I found one. The ladder was distressed and painted white. My friend cut the wooden letters for me. This is my decorated ladder! I am loving it!
Now to finish my decorating!

Hope to work with paper soon! Thanks for stopping by today!
