Valentine Day Card and Pillow Box

Happy Valentine Day Cricutjunkies,

I wanted to share a Valentine day card that I made for my Hubby and some cute pillow boxes I made for my coworkers.  I used Create a Critter Cart and and old Stampin up stamp I found in my stash probably from the 90's for the sentiment.

This was a really quick card, I was trying to keep it simple and masculine, although I couldn't help putting the bow in her hair.

Action Wobbles are great

The sentiment is from a valentine stamp from my stash, This is a great way to use stamps you wouldn't normally use on the front of a card. 

I bought the pillow boxes at Michael's about 6 months ago for $1.79 and didn't have a clue what I would use them for but I though it was a great deal. (glad I bought them)

I made 20 in about 3 hours and that was including cutting the heart and scallop out on the cricut and filling them with chocolate.

I am proud to say all products were used from my stash.

Shopping Our Stash Bird Card

Hello Cricutjunkies,

I haven't posted a project since 4th of July although I have been busy crafting. It seems like the older you get the quicker time passes. I have been trying to stay true to my resolution by saving my cash and using my stash so I though this challenge was perfect.  SOS challenge {Shopping Our Stash} this week is to seek out something with fur or feathers- animal or bird! No insects, spiders, bees. It needs to have feathers or fur! You can use animal print paper as well- or feather themed papers, etc.

I used a paper pack from my stash, added a little bling and cut out a bird from the Create A Critter Cart to fill in the dead space now you have a cute card in about 20 mins. I have been really trying to build up my card stash so I didn't use a sentiment because this card can be used for anything.

 

Hope you feel inspired to use what is in your stash and don't forget to stop by Shopping Our Stash

and join the challenge.
