MCT Throwback Thursday "Do over"

Hello! It's Throwback Thursday at MyCreativeTime...today we are picking an old card to "Do Over". I made the above card back in 2012, and while it's not entirely hideous, I don't like it. LOL ;) Here is my "Do Over" version...

Ahh. That's much better. ;) I used the XL Label Die from MyCreativeTime to make the shaker window. I used the same sweet ladybug from the Create A Critter Cricut Cartridge, but I gave her a different face. I used the Kawaii Face Assortment from PeachyKeenStamps. 

The greeting is from the My Favorite Sayings set from MyCreativeTime.

p.s. If you look closely at the heart on the tummy...you can see how much better the Explore cuts than the Expression. :)

Hi Buddy! My own SVG with the Cricut Explore

Hello! I am SOOOOO happy with this card! I used my Cricut Explore and Design Space to make my own SVG from an image. I've always loved Mr. Narwhal from Elf, so I made my own version of him using a photo that I found on google. I used the Explore to cut out the shape I wanted, and then I drew in the lines to make my own "stamp". I used the Kawaii Face Assortment for his eye, and the Squee Face Assortment for his mouth. Both awesome sets from PeachyKeenStamps. I colored him with my Prismacolor colored pencils and blended out with OMS/gamsol. I went over his eye and eyebrow with a black sakura glaze pen. 

I colored in his horn {which is really a tooth that only male narwhal's have} with a wink of stella clear glitter marker...and then added glossy accents to it. I inked the sky with tumbled glass distress ink, and added snow with my sakura white gel pen. Mr. Narwhal's line in Elf is, "Bye Buddy. Hope you find your Dad."....but I made this a hi card. I used the Claire's ABC's set from Lawn Fawn to make the greeting. I also added wink of stella to the snowy iceberg in front of Mr. Narwhal. :)

Just PEAcause

Hiya! Just a super simple card today. I stamped and paper pieced the sweet little peas from the Faceless Veggies One set by PeachyKeenStamps. Their faces are from the Kawaii Face Assortment set also by PeachyKeenStamps. 

That perfect greeting is from the Veggie Sentiments One set by PeachyKeenStamps. :)

I hope you're having a nice day.
