Imagine Nation Monday & 2 Special Guest Designers!

Happy Monday & Welcome to another imagine nation Monday! I have 2 Guest Designers joining me today! Before I introduce them & their BEAUTIFUL cards, I want to tell you how I created my card for today! I "FINALLY" used my "Car Decals" cartridge! I never successfully loaded it into my "Gypsy Girl":( I tried everything & it never made it:( So, I had to work w/this cart "Manually"! Yep, I actually used my cricut w/NO Gypsy for my little "Daddy" guy! Good thing the face parts to this little guy were EASY to remove so I can use my FAVORITE Peachy face on him! The peachy face is from the "Wide Eyed Kids 1 1/8" set. For his CUTIE glasses & mustache I used also from Peachy Keen "Accessories Asst ONE"! If you don't own any of these sets of Peachy stamps, now is your "Golden Opportunity"!! They are having a FABULOUS "Customer Appreciation" sale going on right now & you can check it out HERE! Isn't that pattern paper ADORABLE??? It is one of my new favorite Imagine carts called "Vintage Papers"! WOW, I just LOVE it! For all the sentiments used on my card, they are from my stamp set called "You're my Best Buddy"! This is one of my favorite sets I designed:)

Here is the inside of my card! All the sentiments are from this same stamp set "You're my Best Buddy"!

Okay, now on to my 1st Guest Designer! I would like to give a warm welcome to Miss Sherry w/Up or Down They're Beautiful Blog! All I have to say is that she is the "Sweetest" lady you could every meet "Via internet" hehehehe:) I just love her & she is one talented lady! Be sure to tune in to her blog everyday this week because she had made "5" different cards using this same stamp set! One for each day this week! Miss Sherry is showcasing one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE stamp sets called "Turn that Frown Upside Down"! This stamp set is such a "Happy Happy" set & I designed it to sure put a smile on anyone's face!;) I just love how her card turned out!

Onto my 2nd & frequent "Guest Designer", welcome back again Miss Cindy Lee! Another TALENTED & VERY SWEET friend! I just love her too & ALL of my bloggy friends! For Miss Cindy's card today, she is showcasing my stamp set "This & That"! This set has several different sentiments that will go PERFECTLY with a variety of your projects! Her card is super sweet & YUMMY... I just LOVE it!

Throwback Thursday Challenge & My Design Team!

Happy St. Patty's Day everyone! This is a bittersweet day for us because, we are on pins & needles & have to wait ONE MORE day to hear my hubby's results! Someone asked me how could I have the strength to be making cards at a time like this? Well, to be honest w/you, this is the only thing that is really keeping me going! During the day, I am distracted by the boys & my hubby, but when they go to sleep, that's when I constantly start thinking about everything all over again:( So crafting seriously is my Therapy at the moment!
 As soon as everyone wakes up, I am going to shop for my cornbeef & cabbage and some mint chip ice cream! I always make us milkshakes w/that every year for St. Patty's day! (My Favorite!)

Okay, welcome to another throwback Thursday challenge w/my FABULOUS design team! Here are the details for this challenge:
*** Link your project up to Mr. Linky, then leave a comment!

*** Deadline for this challenge will be on Wed, March 30th!

Sorry, I'm still not ready to do a video yet. But I did make a card for this challenge!
Here is my card, I used Create a Critter for the worm & apple shaped card. I also used 3 Birds on Parade for the little cute cloud! That ADORABLE face on my worm is from Peachy Keen's Large "Critter Faces" set! Did I forget about that Super Perfect Teacher stamp?? Yep, that is from my stamp set called "My Teacher Rocks"! I colored it in to make it look like it's on a post-it note & I also used red stickles for that tiny cute apple!;) Oh, I also embossed the apple using the "Book Print" Impression Plate from Papertrey Ink!

Here is Miss Glora's super cute card also using "My Teacher Rocks" stamp set!
