Welcome to 3D Wednesday

Hello bloggy friends!!! Thanks for coming by today. I hope you like my little project as much as I do. So cute and guess what....Pinterest inspired, oh yeah. If you don't Pinterest, I implore you. Go do it. It's the best thing to hit the internet since, well, since the beginning of the internet pretty much. LOL But let's get to it, shall we?

This adorable little basket and paper strawberries are SO EASY to make!!!! I don't have any SVG file or even a Cricut image for them, but so not necessary. Here's the link where I started. I used 6 inch strips but will make them a little longer next time I think. I cut the strawberries by hand after printing them out onto the back of my patterned paper. Each strawberry holds a red Hershey's kiss!

Added a tag to the handle using My Creative Time Vintage Label banner die, stitched ticket die, and stitched heart button dies for extra cuteness. The sentiment is from the Beary Special Thoughts stamp set.

 I also added these cutie little charms cuz I love adding cutie little charms. :) These are made using one of the stitched layering hearts dies, and two of the teeny labels from the Chunky Jar Accessories dies.

Hip-hippo-ray!

I'm so excited to be sharing this week on Miss Joy's blog, Obsessed with Scrapbooking. Thank you again, Joy, for letting me play this week. :) 

Today's project is this sweet little hippo from the Create a Critter Cricut Cartridge. He is one of my faves! I used this one to cut a card, welding two together at the feet in the Cricut Craft Room. I love that program. If you haven't tried it, you really must. It's very easy to use and if you get stuck, the video that pops up when you first open the program is very helpful. So the card opens from the top, but no big deal, he's too cute to notice that right? ;) The grass is part of the hippo accessory.

Super adorbs little tag and letter, dies by My Creative Time. New baby's initial. :)

Inside I used the My Creative Time stitched ticket die and the sentiment is by Paper Trey Ink. Welcome baby Karsyn, and congrats to my sweet friend and new grammy, Leanne!

Hoppy Easter!

Before I get to my project I want to thank Joy for being so sweet and allowing me to share on her blog, Obsessed with Scrapbooking, this week!!!! I'm beyond excited and appreciate so much the opportunity to share with all of you other Joy-fans!! ;) I hope you'll enjoy what I have for you this week and thank you again, Miss Joy for letting me invade your bloggy space. ♥ 

Ok so....Easter-- it's coming up sooner than you think.....next weekend, in fact! Are you ready? This little basket will go to some of my grands. I love sending them the goodies I make and they love receiving them, so it's always a win-win! ;) For this project I used the ever adorable and often forgotten older cartridge, Doodlecharms. The simple images are so sweet and just what I needed to add charm to this little berry basket. 

The bunny and bushel basket, as well as the paws (hearts) are all from the Doodlecharms cart. The face is, of course, by Peachy Keen Stamps as is the sentiment. I did add the whiskers (invisible thread) and cute little tooth. The carrot is handcut and the tops are a spellbinders foliage die.

The actual Easter basket is a die by Quickutz, called berry basket.

The handle, isn't it sweet!?, is a border die also by Quickutz.

In case you're wondering what the greenery is inside, they are dyed coffee filter carrots filled with speckled robin eggs and tied with twine. Cute huh??? Pinterest inspired. Gotta love Pinterest!

Hey peeps, hopping by...

Super cute little project we made during the new release ustream for Pink By Design the other night. Embellies and tag added later. 

I used a circle punch to make a little notch in the front just for something different.

added a double bow and a butterfly to the handle cuz it looked super plain without it. I likey.

 These are the cherry blossoms die by My Favorite Things. Leaves are Quickutz nesting leaves.

The tag. Which I remembered after I had taken all the other pics. LOL The ticket and peep are Quickutz dies, flowers are My Favorite Things, and sentiment is from the PBD Animated Greetings 2 set.

Pretty poppies

Happy mail from My Favorite Things .... I LOVE the new poppy stamps set!!! Aren't these gorgeous?? My card is a shameless scraplift from Barbara Anders of the My Favorite Things Design Team. Her card was so striking I had to copy it and as soon as I got my new goodies in the mail, I went straight to work. :)

The poppies, leaves and stems are all part of this set. And so are the sentiments! The background script is a poppy poem sentiment {it's not a background stamp--to be clear, I just stamped it multiple times} as is the happiest of days sentiment.

I stamped the poppies on white and cut them out. The centers I colored with copic markers.
