 Happy Monday and welcome to another Monday challenge!

To qualify for the prize, be sure to use at least 1 Cricut cut on your project and if it's not obvious, let us know what cartridge you used. If you use a Cricut Explore machine, at least one cut must be from the Cricut catalog of images.

If it isn't a card, you will get two entries into the drawing!

Here is my project-



I kept my card pretty simple so that awesome greeting could be the star of the show. I made an A2 card base from some dark blue cardstock. I layered a piece of white cardstock on top that I embossed with my Swiss dots embossing folder. I also wrapped it with ribbon before I adhered it to my card base. I cut out that awesome saying from the Independence Day - Freedom Cricut cartridge and sized it to where it covered the majority of my card front. I added a bow to my ribbon and the card was pretty much done. I love how it turned out! Being a military family, I love all things patriotic!

Be sure to stop by the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog to see the projects that my design team sisters created! I hope you will power up that Cricut and make a Patriotic project for the challenge! I would love to see what you create!

Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look at my latest creation!
I really appreciate it!
I hope you have a great crafty day!!

Happy Thursday!!

I have a super simple shaped card to share with you today that features one of the 

Cutie KaToodles from KaDoodle Bug Designs.

For my card, I used some circle dies from We R Memory Keepers to create my card base and light blue inner layer. I then cut out that adorable little Cutie KaToodle Bald Eagle and popped him up onto the front of the card. I thought it would be cute if was was holding a little banner flag while he was whizzing by on his firecracker so I stamped my greeting from Scrappy Moms Stamps onto some white cardstock and notched out the ends and cut a thin strip of red cardstock and voila! I simply glued the red strip to his wing and put some foam adhesive behind the banner flag.

This weekend is going to be pretty busy around my house so in case I don't get back on here before then, I hope all that are celebrating the Fourth Of July have a great one filled with lots of good food and great memories! Be safe out there this weekend!!

Welcome to Day 3 of the May Sneak Peeks for My Creative Time!

I hope you have enjoyed the sneaks so far!

Today we are giving you a sneak peek of 3 new sets titled:

Anchors & Heart Dies, Make a Splash Die and Hey Sailor

Here is the card that I made that incorporated something from all 3 of these new sets:

My husband recently retired from the US Navy so these are right up my alley plus I love the beach and all things nautical!! I wanted to make my hubby a fun little card to give to him just because. I tend to leave him cards here and there for him to find from time to time. Whether it is in his lunchbox, his truck, etc. I used the Surprise Pop-Out Card die as my card base. I actually cut it out three times, once in the yellow and then one for each of my patterned papers. I did it this way so that I could also have that awesome stitching on my patterned papers. I used a anchor from the NEW Anchors & Heart Dies and layered that on top of the wave from the NEW Make A Splash Die. I did this twice so that when the card was opened, the flip out part also had the anchor and wave. For the front of my card, I stamped my greeting from the NEW Hey Sailor stamp set onto a banner from the Vintage Stitched Label Die and then I used the oval from the Surprise Pop-Out Card die for my greeting (also from the New Hey Sailor set) for the inside of my card. I finished it off by adding some homemade "enamel dots" to the top right and the bottom left. 

Here is what it looks like when the card is opened:
