Wavy Scarf

Manitou Passage Scarf
So I found this yarn, Loops & Threads Payette, at Michael's and couldn't resist buying it. I wasn't sure what to make with at first. Then I found this pattern, Manitou Passage Scarf, on Ravelry and thought it would be perfect. I LOVE how it is turning out.

Glamorous Furry Scarf

This is my version of a pattern that I found on LionBrand.com

The entire scarf is knitted while holding two strands together.

I made this using Louisa Harding Grace yarn in dark chocolate and tan. I also used Louisa Harding ribbon in pink, brown, and ecru. The furry yarns are Sizzle Bright in moonstone and Smash Irisee in mahagony.

All of these yarns are luxurious and soft. I love my new scarf.

Father's Day Card

I made this card using my Cricut Imagine and white card stock. The golf bag is from the Wrap It Up cartridge, I used patterns from the Country Carnival cartridge. The grass is from the Easter cartridge and the sun is a layer from Kate's Kitchen. I am really enjoying my new Cricut Imagine and making wonderful cards and home decor items just using white card stock.

Birthday Card for my Husband

I recently purchased the Cricut Imagine and could not wait to make something with it. So, I made my hubby a birthday card. The cool part is that I used a regular Cricut cartridge (Wrap it Up), and added some of the pattern designs from some of my Cricut Imagine cartridges. I used all white paper to make this card.

Graduation Card

I made this graduation card for my niece, who graduated from college this Summer.




I used the Wild Card cartridge to make this card. I used blue and yellow background because that is her school colors.

Oh and she graduated from the same college I graduated from.

Mother's Day Card

My Pink Stamper - National Scrapbook Day Challenge #4

Make something with a Mother's Day theme.

For this challenge, I chose to make a card for my lovely daughter, who is a new Mommy this year.


Recipe:

I cut an 8.5" X 11" piece of vanilla card stock in half. I then folded it to make the card base.

I cut the flowered paper (from Stampin' Up) to 4" X 5.25"

I tied a piece of red polka dot ribbon (also from Stampin' Up) around the flowered paper.

I then cut a heart from red card stock using the Love Struck Cricut cartridge. I used the shadow of the second heart and cut it at 2.75".

I cut a background for my heart using the same cut from the Love Struck cartridge, but I cut the background at 3".

I cut the "Happy Mother's Day" from the Mother's Day cartridge. I cut it at 2".

I stamped the inside of the card with a stamp from My Pink Stamper that says "When I count my blessings, I count you twice."
