Scrappy Mom Terrific Tuesday Challenge

Here's my entry for the Scrappy Mom's Terrific Tuesday Challenge from last week. Here is the link to their post.

The challenge was to use the Sweethearts cartridge. I've been watching a lot of YouTube videos lately and have seen everyone making these treat bags. I got the bags and candy from The Dollar Tree. Yup that's right, those cute little heart ziplock bags were only $1 for 40.

I cut the pink and red toppers at 5 by 3 3/4. Folded in half at 2 1/2 inch. I cut the Scalloped Heart at 1 3/4 inch with the Blackout feature on. At this size the holes didn't cut out perfectly, so I made a last minute substitution. I used my bold Galaxy Marker for the white dots in the pink hearts and my pink Zig pen for the white hearts. The sentiment is a stamp from the dollar bin at Micheal's. Total cost for the project, $7. I made 32 bags.

Scrappy Mom Terrific Tuesday Challenge

I FINALLY made it into my craft room. After a bought of crafter's block, I'm ready to get going again. This is for the very first Terrific Tuesday challenge over at Scrappy Moms Stamps.

The challenge was to use the Birthday Bash Cricut cartridge. If you don't own Birthday Bash, you were to use something similar. I don't own it, so I used Create-A-Critter. Here's what I came up with:

I'll have to admit, I cut the hat a little backwards. The image has the hat and a pinwheel on it. So I used the "Fit to Page" button, which cut the image at 8 inches. The hat ended up being about 3.5 inches. I added a little bling with Stickles. The sentiment is from a stamp set that I bought at Michael's on clearance this past weekend. They have a lot of stamps marked down to below $5.

This card will be for a very special person. One of my besties has a daughter with Down Syndrome. She'll be 9 in a few weeks and of course her favorite color is purple. I hope she likes it.
