This is my this weeks Cuttlebug Spot Design Team card and my other card for my dear friend Lisa... she needed a card for another friend at work who loves Crosses... and this worked wonderfully well with my assignment for the week... We had to ink an embossing folder... so I used dark pink in on light pink paper and the Victoria embossing folder... I am really pleased with how it turned out... its a really simple card... since it was so busy it needed to be simple I felt... I hope the Cuttlebug Spot visitors and Lisa are happy with this card! ... be sure and check out The Cuttlebug Spot this week and see what the other Design Team members have come up with!... have a wonderful week! ~~Hugs, Jeannie

A Christmas Tweet

Click on any picture to enlarge.

It's The Cuttlebugspot time again!! This weeks theme was Tweet Tweet we had to use a bird... any bird ... I pondered this for a while and was inspired by Tomiannie on the Cricut MB ... she does beautiful work!... you need to see her card "Congratulations Lovebirds" ... when she used these birds I knew that I was going to use them on my CB card... I had forgotten about her half circle but it must have been in my head ... this card is totally inspired by her beautiful work and heart ... also I was telling my dear husband that I needed to think of a sentiment using this cut (as I pointed to the birds) he said without skipping a beat "A Christmas Tweet" ... Thank you Robby and Tomiannie! ... I can't wait to see what the other Design Team members came up with... be sure that you have a look-see too by clicking HERE! ... Happy Monday and Hugs to Everyone! Jeannie

This is my Cuttlebug Spot Design Team card for this week.... it was one of those that took me a while... but when I got it in my head I was just too too excited to get started... I must thank Robin aka RCZ28 for getting me started on my idea... she did a beautiful card with this most adorable stamp (click HERE to see it!)... and she did a wonderful job on it... when I saw it I knew I would have to use that phrase on it in some form or fashion someday... its adorable!!... so her card was in my head when I started thinking of what I was going to do for my "Celebrating Education" card for this week... be sure and check out the other Design Team members cards they are great!... just click HERE to see them!

It's "The Cuttlebug Spot" time again!!.... I get so excited when I finish one of these challenges for the Design Team.... but I must admit some of them are a real challenge and this was one of those... our only guideline other than using the Cuttlebug was to "use the word HOT"... the word Hot???... the word HOT???.... I kept seeing the word HOT a sombrero and a pepper... well I just knew that is the first thing anyone would think so I didn't want to go with that.... but then what left.... nothing in my little brain I can tell you that... usually I get these done early... but this one I made late Saturday night..... and I was pleased when finished it!!... but PEOPLE it turns out that you can make lots of things with the word hot!!..lots.... just check out The Cuttlebug Spot this week and see.... those ladies on the Design Team rocked!....

Cupcake Card

I needed to may my The Cuttlebug Spot Design Team card for this week and I needed to make my Brother-in-Law a birthday card...so I combined the "challenge" for both... My BIL is not into your typical things so I had no idea how to make it personal....so I went with the cupcake from Home Decor and used my new Celtic Knots Cuttlebug folder...I thought it turned out pretty good until my dear BIL got it and turned it in all directions...look confused... never even knew that I made it...and still doesn't know its a cupcake.... can we say store bought on the 99 cent rack next year!!! Hope you like it some... hugs, Jeannie

Celtic Knots Embossing Folder
I embossed a brown piece of cardstock and a blue piece of cardstock.. I trimmed 1/2 inch off of each side and the top and the bottom... so that I would have a piece that lined up with the pattern and have a border around it of the next color.
I used a gold pen to draw inside of the lines of the embossed image.
Lots of Brown Ink
