Card for Cooking with Cricut #81 Card Outreach

Hello Crafty Friends! I spent my weekend working at Bath and Body Works and planting flowers. I'm officially done with the flowers. We have a lot of bunnies and squirrels hanging out in our yard...they better be staying away from my flowers LOL!!

So this is the last card I needed to do for the Cooking with Cricut #81 Card Outreach Challenge that ends in a couple of hours. This card is for Patty, who is 13 and fighting neurobastoma.

Deets:

5x7 white card base. Pink check paper from DCWV "Nana's Kitchen". Card was designed with the imagine and the clouds were printed from "Best Friends (scalloped rectangle). The cute hugging rabbit and duck were cut at 4.5" and I cut the layers just to add some dimension and that is from "Enjoy the Season." Tree was cut at 3.5 and from Stretch Your Imagination. Grass was from Create a Critter. Sun was at 1.25 from Simply Charmed.

Sentiment was from Studio G from the $1 bin at M's and the ink is black from Momento.

How about some pink? Card for 3 Challenges & for "Feel the Love"

Hello crafty friends! I love pink!! And, I found three challenges to do a card for. One of the challenges is so important and I hope you will consider doing a card for this sweet little girl.
Her name is Emily, she is 6 and has leukemia. Go check out the wonderful blog of the creative Madison/Funky Cards to find out more about the "Feel the Love" card project she does each month. CHALLENGES ENTERED:

1) The Cuttlebug Spot Sketch Challenge --Choose your theme, just follow the sketch below X


2) Cooking With Cricut #81 Card Outreach
There are 2 girls to make cards for in the card outreach to help cheer them up while they are battling cancer. I made mine for Emily and this will be given to Madison at Funky Cards for her "Feel the Love Project" X

3) Celebrate the Occasion #58 Project using pink and "Just Because" X



Details:

This is a 5x7 premade cream color card base. All the coordinating papers are from Canvas Corp (zebra, then flowers, then stripes, then the cream which is the opposite side and I embossed it)
The zebra is 5x7, floral is 4.25 x 5.75, stripe is 4x6, stripe is 3.75 x 5.5 and cream is 3.25 x 4.75

I used the Once Upon a Princess Cuttlebug Embossing Folders set (butterflies).
The butterflies at the top were cut several times and layered for depth. The top layer I just glued the body down so the wings would "Pop up." I used the Serenade cart and the butterflies are at .90, .75 and .50. I cut from the same paper as the card.

Sentiment was cut using an EK Success punch from the zebra paper and stamped in black with Momento ink.

Thank you for looking :)

Card for Madison at Funky Cards "Feel the Love" Project

Here is a card I'm sending to the wonderful and thoughtful Madison at Funky Cards. She has a special monthly project where she finds someone who needs their spirits lifted and some love.
Stop by Madison's blog and check out what she does. She is an inspirational young woman.

This month, she found a very special little 3 1/2 yr old girl named Marley Moore. She was diagnosed in Aug. 2009 with a tumor on her brain, by her optic nerve, the size of a lemon. The surgeon was able to remove a large portion but that evening, as a result of trama to the brain for surgery, Marley suffered a stroke. That left her right side paralyzed. She, her family (and her big sister Mia) are dealing with a lot. They just within the last week found out that the tumor had grown by approx 10%. They need lots of encouragement, prayers and positive thoughts.

Please, please consider doing a quick cute card for the girls and even her parents'.

Here is my card

Marley's Card

Mia's Card (big sister)

This is a 4 x 6 card, done on the gypsy and expression.
Patterned paper is Canvas corp (pink & ivory dot, pink & ivory stripe, pink/ivory floral and pink/ivory swirl)
I used the postage stamp cut from Gypsy Wandering, sized 4x6 and duplicated, grouped & welded. The pink striped rectange mat is from Ashlyn's Alphabet, sized at 3.20x 5.40.

Cotton candy is from Carnival Lite and sized at 4". Layer 1 was white, layer 2 was pink cardstock. I then covered layer 2 with scotch quick dry adhesive and quickly poured pink MS flocking for a yummy look.
Inside the card: I cut coordinating pink pattern paper for inside of card. On the left I stamped Emma's "Inspiring Words (Accents)
On the right, I stamped Robyn's MPS "Pinka-licious"

NOTE: The Sock Monkey Card is something I made for a challenge last month and he just makes me smile and I love him so. You can get directions for him HERE
