Mint for Each Other Card

Hello everyone and Happy July!  I can't believe it's already July!!!!!  I'm here with another challenge for Krafty Girls...  The challenge this week is:  Mint- use the color mint on your project.  I didn't quite know what to do for this challenge, but I was talking about in the car with my BFF, Shelly, and she gave me this sentiment, so I ran with it!  :)  This idea was "mint" to be, for sure!

A2 sized card
Simply Charmed- ice cream cones cut at 3.12"
Cuttlebug- doodle hearts (The Paper Studio)
Peachy Keen Stamps- Retro Paper Doll Face Assortment
Sentiment from my computer- Smiley Monster font size 18, Mr. & Mrs. Popsicle font size 12
Glossy Accents
Slot punch (I made the chocolate chips by punching out slots and cutting them in half)

Well I hope you enjoyed it, and thanks so much for stopping by!  Be sure to enter the mint challenge at Krafty Girls!  :)

Hangin' With My Peeps Card

Fantabulous Cricut post is HERE.

Joy's Life post is HERE.

Hello everyone!!!!  Today is another fun challenge over at Krafty Girls!  YAY!!!  The challenge this week is For Peep's Sake!- create a project for Easter.  I had so much fun making this card!!!  I love spring time (even though that means summer is approaching!)....  I love all of the cute spring decor items at the stores, the longer hours of daylight, planting my garden, and all of the little baby animals!  I think that little chicks are one of the cutest things on this planet!   They just scream "spring" to me!  I do not like them once they are grown up, though....  Roosters kind of freak me out a little bit...  Those claws are just too much!  I almost had a rooster run into my classroom one day, and I just know that he was enjoying watching me squirm!  Wow, I can't believe I just admitted all of that....  Okay, on to the card!  :)
