Felicity's Be A Blessing Blog Hop April 27th




Welcome to Felicity's Be A Blessing Blog Hop!!

Today we are celebrating a very special little girl's first birthday. She has had a difficult fight this past year and we felt what better way to celebrate her life than have a blog hop!
Felicity has touched many lives even though she is not even one yet. Every day she makes therapists, doctors, and even her family smile.
The purpose of this hop is to be a blessing. So the way to win our blog candy will be for you to be a blessing to someone around you. Then photograph how you have been a blessing with either a craft project or taking a meal to someone, etc. Share it with us and that gives you an extra entry besides leaving comments on all the hop stops.

If you arrived from Beth's Blog  then you are in the right place. If not please go back to the beginning at Shawnee's blog and make sure you don't miss all the amazing ways my friends have chosen to bless others.

Blog candy for this hop is one paper pack and April Showers Cricut Cartridge.

There are two ways to earn blog candy
1. Leave a comment on each blog
2. Come back and post how you blessed someone else with a link.
3. Tweet/Facebook about the blog hop


Thank you Shawnee for letting me participate in this awesome hop for the cutest baby ever :)

I am so excited for today's hop!!! I had the pleasure of meeting Felicity when she was in town!!! She is SO SUPER ADORABLE!!!

I knew immediately what I wanted to do for my project. I wanted to make a cup for Shawnee (Felicity's Mom) who I swear tucks in her cape...because she is WONDER WOMAN...  I wanted to make her a cup with all her kids on it :) This was actually my first vinyl project using the Cameo and my first time using outdoor vinyl.  I cut out all the names and hearts and used blue painter's tape to transfer them onto the cup! I then added some tissue paper and filled the cup with Shawnee's favorite candy (Snickers). 

The front says: Shawnee's Sweethearts
The Back has all her kids names on it. :)
(Sorry I took a lot of pictures so they could all see their name on the cup, but it is just one cup)

Silhouette Cameo
Font: LD Dotty

White, Pink and Silver Outdoor Vinyl
Blue painters tape

Sketch Blog Hop 4/6



 


Welcome to the Sketch Blog Hop. Everyone has had so much fun doing these it's turned into a regular event!

The purpose of this hop is to show how all of these talented bloggers can take the same sketch and come up with totally different cards. If you've never used a card sketch before, give it a try! You should have come from: Rachelle's Blog, if you didn't be sure to go back to the start at www.craftycardgallery.blogspot.com. Be sure to check out all of the fabulous cards at the different stops!

  Here's the sketch:How's this one?


Normally I would use the sketch just like this. But when I was looking at it on my phone it kept turning and then I realized when it is sideways that it looks like a Polaroid picture. So I decided to do my card with the sketch turned on it's side. I looked in my Disney stash of items because I figured I would do a Mickey head with the 3 circles but then I saw this Daisy chipboard piece and knew it would look perfect in the Polaroid frame. I also knew I wanted to put her name on the side and found the sticker I was looking for. I then looked some more until I found 3 daisies I could use as well. Then added some Stickles to complete the card.

I decided to make a matching envelope with my Envelope Punch Board and added a Daisy sticker to the front of it :D

So here is Daisy's Polaroid!






Supplies:

White Cardstock
Patterned paper - The Paper Studio (Hobby Lobby)
ATG Gun
Glue Dots
Daisy Chipboard- EK Success
Stickers- Sanylion
Diamond Stickles
Envelope Punch Board
