Birthday Sundaes Challenge# 32

It's time for a Birthday Sundaes challenge! I had a lot of fun with this one!! The challenge is to make a birthday card using the colors: purple, green, white and black.  You may use neutrals if needed.

As soon as I saw the colors for this challenge, I knew I wanted to use my favorite monster: Frankenstein!  The cuts on this Happy Hauntings cart are awesome!

Please make sure to visit the DT and our guest designer Tiffany here.

Turns out Frankenstein was brought to life on Halloween night so...his lovely bride has gotten him a present. Maybe a new bolt?

Frankenstein and his bride were cut at 5" to allow for the details to show clearly.  The stamp shaped card base is from the Pack Your Bags cart.  The sentiment is from Pink By Design and it was punched out with SU! modern label punch.

I LOVE this cute Frankenstein!  His expression is priceless!

Here is a side view.  Lots of pop dots here.

Thanks for visiting and I hope to see your card soon!

California Dreams

First I would like to thank Amy from Amy's Crafting Space for giving me the Butterfly Award! If you have not been to her blog, you must :) She is awesomely talented! Thank you Amy!!

I had this card in mind for about a week now and finally had some time to sit down and make it.  Can I just say that I LOVE California! I only lived there for a couple of years, but they were some of my happiest years of my childhood.  The cool, clean air (we lived in the wine country), the greeness, the beach, and Disneyland! We never went to Disneyland while we lived there.  We were living in AZ when my parents decided to take us.  It was the best vacation ever! My third trip to Disneyland was when I turned 15.  My parents let me decide between a huge party or a family vacation. Not a hard decision to make :)

So here is my dream...this is my future family on vacation. 

I really do wish I was there!!

I used my PKS faces for the little boy and girl, and part of a face for the mom.

I loved all the layers in this card.  The sentiment was computer generated and punched out with a SU! punch. 

Thank you for visiting!

Today Hello Kitty made a huge sandcastle:)

This is a shaped card, the castle was from Create a Critter. I took two Castle shadows and welded them together to make the base of the card.

Hello Kitty is from the Hello Kitty Font cart and the Star Fish is from Pack Your Bags.  The handle and the little shovel is from the Simply Charmed cart and the bottom of the bucket is from Gypsy Wanderings. 

I'm entering this card into the Bitten By the Bug  Star Fish Challenge, the Sunny Days challenge at My Craft Spot, cookingwithcricut challenge-41 - Anything goes and The Summer Time Fun challenge at gettingcricky.com.

Here she is wearing her little polka dot bathing suit! 

I love how the little shovel looks.  I was so happy it was on a cartridge!
