Gigi McKellips :: I Ruff You!!

Hello everyone! This is GiGi from The Cricut Bug and I have a card to share. I am just LOVING these new stamps that were just released this month. Those pups are THE CUTEST dog's ever!

I paper pieced the dogs using the new Peachy Keen August 2013 Stamp Of The Month set. I did some inking on them and stamped the faces using the Peachy Keen Happy Go Luck Dog faces. I cut the girls head off...EEK...LOL! and positioned it so it looked like she was resting her head on the boy's head. I used Copic markers to color in some grass and a white gel pen for the highlights on the dogs. To finish, I stamped the sentiment, added a bow, and added some gems. 

I hope you all liked my card and thanks for stopping in today! 

Have a great day!

Hello everyone! This is GiGi here from The Cricut Bug to share a super sweet card. I just LOVE how great the Peachy Keen face stamps go along with these adorable SVG Cutting Files cuts. 

How CAUUUTE is that bee girl? And she's even CUTER with that adorable Peachy Keen face! The file is called Cute As Can Bee and they're from the SVG Cutting Files store.

To create the card, I welded 2 of the hive's together to create the card shape and then cut the layer pieces. I cut the bee girl and stamped her face with a Peachy Keen Sweet And Silly face. The sentiments are from the Peachy Keen Honey Sentiments and I stamped them to banners that I tucked behind the hive pieces. 

I hope you all enjoyed seeing my card and thanks for stopping in! Have a great day!

Gigi McKellips :: Best Thing Since Sliced Bread!

Hi everyone! This is GiGi here from The Cricut Bug to share a project with you. 

Have you seen the NEW face stamps? OH MY are they CAUUUTE! They are called The Moodies and they come in 4 different sets! They come in the Moodies Face Assortment ( in sizes ranging from 3/8 - 1 3/8) , 1 1/8, 2 1/4, and 4 inch for all your crafting needs. I used the 2 1/4 inch stamps on this project.

I cut the bread shaped box using my Cameo and a file from Lettering Delight called Oishii. I hid the face and instead stamped it with that super cute PK Moodies face and colored it in. The tag is stamped from the PK Sandwich Fun stamp set and I tied it on with some crinkle ribbon and button with twine. 

I hope you all liked my fun sandwich box and thanks for stopping in! Have a great day!

Gigi McKellips :: Gears Grinding?

Hello everyone! This is GiGi from The Cricut Bug and I have a card to share with you today. I used one of the new sentiment stamp sets on this card called Made On Planet Earth. I thought this would also be a perfect sentiment to go with the cute Funny Farm tractor. I LOVE this tractor stamp, it is just TOO CUTE!

I also finished the inside too!

I paper pieced the tractor/boy and did some inking on him. I also used a Versa Mark pen to color in every other line of the tractor wheels. Using the Versa Mark pen is a great alternative if you want to highlight something because it usually only comes out a shade darker than the paper you color it onto. After the tractor was done, I mounted him to a rectangle mat. I rounded the corners, inked the edges for the sky, and added a piece of green matching paper for the bottom.

I stamped the cloud and sentiment and cut it out. I also stamped the sentiment at the bottom and added some dots with a black pen to lead you to the inside of the card where the rest of the sentiment is. The inside I finished as well with the rest of the sentiment and another piece of matching paper. 

I hope you all like my card and thank for visiting! Have a wonderful day!

Gigi McKellips :: Snow Me A Man

Hello my Peachy Friends! This is GiGi from The Cricut Bug sharing a card with you today. 

I used the PK-153 Snow Me A MAN stamp set to create this card. I just LOVE this cute snowman and the sentiment is so sweet too. 

I added some twine for the mitten pulls and stickles to the heart.

I stamped this cutie and paper pieced the scarf, hat, and mittens. I did a little inking around the edges to give him a shadow and colored the eyes and nose with Copic markers. Before I mounted him on pop dots, I added some twine and wound it around for the mitten pulls. I stamped the sentiment banner and added that to the bottom. To finish I added a simple ribbon and bow. 

I hope you enjoyed my peachy post and have a wonderful day!
