Patriotic Card- MPS Blog Hop & Peachy Keen Challenge

I am in complete summer mode now!!!!!  I went to work today and cleaned up my classroom, put things away, and made copies for the next school year....  Now I can really relax and think about all of the summer fun to be had! :)  So..... It was perfect that the My Pink Stamper Pinkalicous Blog Hop theme was summer, and the Peachy Keen Let's Face it Friday Challenge was a patriotic theme!

Wedding Card

Hello again..... I am really becoming addicted to entering card challenges!  Now I am posting two things in one day again!!!!  My cousin Krystal got married yesterday and I didn't have their wedding card finished in time, so I am going to give this to them as soon as possible....  On Monday, my family and I helped Krystal and Andrew make their wedding cake and wedding cupcakes.  I think it turned out super adorable and we all worked so well together and had so much fun making this cake!  :)  The color theme was black and white, with splashes of blue and yellow.  This is a picture of the cake that we all came up with together.

Now onto the card that I made for them.....  I am going to be entering this card into two challenges:

Cricut Cardz Challenge:  make a wedding card using any cartridge and colors http://cricutcardzchallenge.blogspot.com/2011/06/cricut-cardz-challenge-78.html

My Creative Time:  use a Cricut Lite cartridge and add some "bling"
