Squigglefly Rewind

Some of the Squigglefly DT and I decided to whip out a few of the oldies but goodies to showcase today. I picked Bow Tie Teddy. I decided to make a couple of simple baby cards. I think Teddy is lookin’ pretty sweet.

I used Cricut cartridge New Arrival combined with Design Studio for the “congratulations”. You probably wouldn’t have to use Design Studio if your a fancy Expression owner but I’m still working on a baby bug. I just purchased Mona Lisa odorless mineral spirits and these are the first images I colored using it combined with colored pencils. I’m really trying to work on my coloring skills and find what works best for me. Wish me luck…I’m gonna need it. Any pointers are welcomed. A little Swiss Dots embossing and a few stars cut out from George topped with buttons and that’s about it.

Check out the other ladies blogs to see what they have come up with. Below is a list/links.

Welcome Little One Baby Card

There are so many babies that have just arrived or are about to come. Last night I whipped out my New Arrival cartridge. It has so many adorable cuts that I just have never used before. I have so many more I can’t wait to cut out and ink up! The sentiment I stamped years ago using one of my mothers stamps. I believe it is a Inkadinkado but don’t quote me on that. The patterned paper is from BasicGrey.

I’ve had a few ladies e-mail me asking if my cards are for sell. By all means, If you see a card you’d like to own please e-mail me at lisasummerhays[@]gmail[dot]com. I won’t be taking special orders and I only have one of each card shown.

I am entering this card into the following contests-

Crafty Creations- stitching

ABC Challenge- O is for one paper

Our Creative Corner- something old that’s new
