Karen's Craft Creations

I finally got around to making a new card with my Imagine. I used the Yummy cart and poped up the ice cream.   Well back to the new house.   Hope you like this card.   I have some cool give a ways as soon as I reach 10 followers.

I made really super cards to go in my Operation Write Home stack, I am up to 60.   I made them using a 3-D sticker pack I got at Michaels last week. I have not had much time to do anything the last few weeks. We are trying to get the new house done. We have been over this morning putting up the hardy board. It got so hot outside, I looked at my phone and it is 100, we had to take a break for a while. Hope you like them. Have a safe and fun 4 th .

I made my father’s day cards today with my new Imagine.   It was so nice to not have to cut all the little pieces of paper in different colors. All I did was pick my design and then fill the different stages with color.   I wrote the inside on the computer.   My sons are always doing everything for everybody; I thought these fit them perfectly.  I used the Cuttlebug gears embossing folder on the second one along with a Tim Holtz die.   Here is a list of the Cartridges I used: Better Together for the colors Robots for the figures Hope you enjoy these as much as I do.   Have a wonderful day.

This weekend I had a chance to make a few cards for operation write home and use them for the Throwback Thursday challenge at my creative time, see the web link on the side bar. I only used one Cartridge this time Botanicals. The first card I also added a SU die cut for the butterflies and a little bling for their bodies. The second one I used a die cut for the flowers, with a little i-rock bling and the same SU die for the butterflies. Hope you enjoy these cards. Have a super Monday. I got my new Imagine this weekend…..can’t wait to see how it works and make a few projects.   More to come.

After weeks of working on the new house I got around to making a few cards today. Marks Birthday is in a few weeks and I needed to make time to get that done. I used a wooden stamp that I have had for a few years, got it at HL, and just love. It makes a nice manly card. The second card is using SU stamps, some spare parts corners and a little bling butterfly.  I colored the flowers using pencils. I like the way you can blend the color, makeing it darker or lighter with just going over the same area a little more. It makes for a softer color, rather than using markers, although I have a lot of Prismacolor and Bic pens as well. I really like the way these turned out.  Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend.

Here is the card I made for the Fantabulous Cricut challenge. I had this wonderful background paper that I have wanted to use on something. I inked all the edges and finished it off with a Hero Arts stamp. Carts used are Jasmine, for the corners, and Cindy Loo, for the flowers. Thanks for stopping by…..have a great weekend. Don’t forget to check out the new Cricut Blog, find the link on the left to Love my Cricut.

I am trying to fill my Operation Write home box with 50 cards. This will be my second batch to send, the first was 220.   Some of the ladies at Church had cards to add to the box, all of them were so wonderful.   Here are 2 more to add, this makes 25. These cards are made with the Florals Embellished cart.   First is the one on page 31 and the second is from page 65.   I made the SU papers as close to the colors in the book as I had in my stash. I also embossed the back paper of the first one and added some Spare Parts ribbon. Thanks for stopping by…..have a super day.
