Mother's Day Blog Hop

Welcome to our Mother's Day blog hop. We are making some great projects that will hopefully inspire you to make some beautiful crafts for whomever you cherish on Mother's Day. If you came here from Meighen's blog then you are in the right place. If not start at the beginning at Jamie's blog for all the wonderful projects lined up for you today. 


I made a box, card and tag for you all from the Cricut Wrap It Up Cartridge.  Here are the details:
  • Card cut at 5 inches; flower on top cut at 2 inches
  • Box cut at 9 1/2 inches
  • Tag cut at 4 inches
  • My Pink Stamper Happiest Moments stamp on tag
  • Stickles
  • Ribbon
My intention was to use the Happy Mother's Day from this button on the cartridge for the top of the card.  Well, it needed to be about 2 inches for this size card and it just would not cut out!!  I think it would be really cute and will have to try it with a bigger card cut before Mother's day.  I tend to go for easy projects here :)

I hope you like what I made, even though it's not too fancy.  I do have some blog candy for you!  It's a Cosmo Crickeet lacing card kit, 2 Making Memories alpha stickers and a Making Memories Glitter Bling Thank You sticker set.  Just be sure to leave one comment and a way for me to get in touch with you if you are the winner.  I will pick a winner on Wednesday.
