Hey everybody!! I'm still alive:) I have missed crafting and blogging but I have to say it's been a really great summer with my family! I am still going to be going away for the next few weekends, probably into October anyway but things are starting to get back on track and I should start to have more time for my favourite hobby!! Hope you all had a great summer. My son just started JK today so that was exciting, his little sister isn't sure she likes him being gone but I'm sure she will get over it soon. My oldest daughter started grade 8 this year, one more year and high school for her! Anyway, here is my creation for the Chirper Challenge this week. Jackie has asked us to make a custom envelope for a card or put one on a layout. Also to use Fall and Fall colors for inspiration. Go check out the Chirper Challenge and play along by linking your take on the challenge!! I decided to use my new A Child's Year cartridge for this one. I have wanted to use it all summer and just didn't get a chance, what a great cartridge!! If you don't have it I highly recommend it:) A Child's Year Cricut Cartridge ~ Boy cut at 2 1/2", girl on envelope cut at 2"Plantin Schoolbook Cricut Cartridge ~ Card and Envelope on Tall Ball feature cut at fit to page I thinkPaper ~ Bo Bunny A gift of Love Flowers are hand cut from patterned paperPrima say it crystals ~ flourishStamp ~ Inkadinkado clear stamp from Michael'sPearls ~ Autumn RecollectionsInking Ribbon and twine to tie card and envie at the backFiskars scallop edge punch Well hope you like it!
