**Please scroll down to see newer posts--as this will remain the 2'nd post**
Hi everyone! I hope you are having a simply blessed day--I'm posting this a bit early.... I am going to start having my challenges on Sunday--so everyone knows what day to tune in for the newest challenge! I will probably post a challenge every week, but you will have TWO weeks to finish it..atleast for now. I am afraid giving only one week just wouldn't be enough time, and I want everyone to have ample time to create something!
So since this is Friday...you have an extra 2 days to get this challenge started!
I went to Walmart here and bought the cutest cartridge called Sugar & Spice...and have created a sweet easy card for my oldest son's teacher. My oldest son has Aspergers, and his teacher this year is wonderful..thank GOD! We feel SO blessed to have her!
TREAT FOR YOU!!! If you WIN this challenge, you will have the opportunity to be a Guest Designer here at Getting Cricky. You will receive a Guest Designer Blinkie, permanent link here on my sidebar here at Getting Cricky, and the prize of....this Cricut Lite Cartridge: Sugar & Spice. If you already have it, you can take it to Walmart, I'm sure, to swap it out for another Cricut Lite.
CHALLENGE....so the challenge is to create any project that is a little sweet and spicy--how you interpret this is up to you! It can be any project (treat box, card, layout, tag, etc) using any materials. I would LOVE to see a cricut cut used, but I'm not mandating it. I want everyone to be able to participate.
Simply Sunday Challenge Details:
**Make any project with a Sugar & Spice theme--use any cartridge or supplies you desire
**State in your blog post this is for K Andrew's Simply Sunday Challenge at Getting Cricky (with a link back here to my blog please)
**Make as many projects for this challenge as you desire
**Link up your project with Inklinz and please leave a comment after doing so
**Deadline for this project is March 19'th at midnight
(I would LOVE for you to follow my blog, and if you choose to follow, please make sure your blogger profile has your blog link or leave a comment for me, so I can follow your blog too..however following my blog is not required to participate)
THANK you to each of you for visiting me today and allowing me to share a bit of my day with you. I feel BLESSED to have you here with me. I hope your day is full of wonder, blessings, and love today.

ReplyDeleteOff to my scraproom to whip something up! Love your card...just to cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie pa-tootie elephant card! It's got that 60's feel to it (oh yeah...lived through that era!)I'm gonna try to meet your challenge, but sick w/bronchitis and have to get my 20 tea party invitations finished before Sunday to pass out at church to my SS class. Thank you for this card!
ReplyDeleteHow do I get/use inklinz? I have never participated in a challenge before and when I googled "inklinz" a bunch of stuff about New Zealand came up. Someone please help me out, I only have Internet on my phone so it is dificult to figure these types of things out on a 2 inch screen, lol. Thanks in advance, Lana
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute card Kristal. We love your jibber jabber and you should do a U-Stream so we can jibber jabber all night. :-)

Lol, I came back to watch your video and you had me laughing. Your Hubby didn't want you blogging and there you were blogging behind his back :) and then you decide to have the peachy keen stamps as snacks. Lol, you're just too funny.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the smile!
Hi Kristal,
ReplyDeleteYour card is adorable!! You look so cute too! You crack me up with your fun videos! I have cleaned my stamps like that too! hahaha Hope your hubby didn't catch you sneakin' some playtime!
Love ya!
Janice
UGGGG...I can't get the video to stream..I think it's cause it's raining cats and dogs and our internet is slow as molasses, girlfriend. But I can see your sweet face and LOVE the HAT!
ReplyDeleteLove the card! And I love this cartridge!

That's where I live too, North County. Welcome to sunny southern California. It would be nice to meet you some day. Thanks for your time.

How exciting to be referenced on the Creating Keepsakes fb! Just got our first granddaugher after 17 years and this cartridge would be perfect.
ReplyDeleteI linked up the tea invitations that I made for a tea party I'm giving on the 26th. The recipe is on my blog. I wish pix were better, then you could see color better and that I put a piece of plastic between the flower and the mat, and then it just looks like a flower w/the word tea but when you open it, you see the teapot. I ran off the invitations and cut them and included w/each card, that way they can "reuse" their tea card. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteThat little ear sticking out is too darn cute :)
