NSD Challenge #6 - "Kids Craft Too"

So it's almost 9:30 PM and I'm just getting my first challenge project posted for the National Scrapbook Day Challenges at My Pink Stamper.  The Challenge: make something with a child or for a child.

This card start out being a card for the "Mother Dear, I love you so" challenge #1, but it just went a whole different direction.  I started making this card at 4:00 this afternoon, after a day of 2 hours of Zumba, and my son's ISSMA Orchestra Contest this afternoon.  I just couldn't get thing finished.  So 5 hours later, I decided I would use this as the childs challenge instead.

I'm going to give this card to my 15 yr old son.  I always use goofy words in sentences to see if he is paying attention or to annoy him.  Not very difficult to do when they are 15.  I'll give it to him tomorrow and see if he is paying attention.

The lobster is cut at 3" from "From My Kitchen".  The paper is from KI Memories Designer Paper Pad. The letters are cut from Alphalicious.  I cut all the pieces from Design Studio to get the right size and to see how every thing would fit before I cut them.  The black paper is The Paper Company, Black and the Blue is Die Cuts with A View, Blue #2.  The finished card size is 4-1/4" x 5-1/2".

MPS Challenge (Pink, Green, & Black) Create A Critter Giveaway

This is my entry for the MPS Challenge at My Pink Stamper today.  The challenge is to use your Cricut and the colors pink, green, and black on a project.  I decided that I would decorate a mini-composition book.

The papers are from a stack I've had forever.  It is by a company called ATD.  I covered the outside of the book with the green paper and the inside covers with the pink paper using Mod-Podge.

The ladybug was cut at 2" from Walk In My Garden.  The scalloped rectangles were cut with Design Studio using Graphically Speaking and the letters are from Alphalicious.  I cut the letters on Design Studio too.  After putting all of the pieces together, I used pop dots to attach to the front of the notebook.

The finished notebook is 3-1/2" x 4-1/2"
