Flaunt it Fridays!

**Sorry for posting this late, for some reason it didn't post correctly!!  Sorry about that!!!!!**

I'm so happy to be a part of the Flaunt it Fridays DT!  I just love a fun challenge!! :)  This week on FIF the challenge is to use the sheep on the Country Life cart.  Well, this is another cart on my wish list; so I had to use a different cartridge.  I decided to make this cute diaper card.  The yellow part comes out for you to write on (my camera died so I didn't get a chance to take a picture of it out).

Recipe:
  • Sheep cut at 3. from Animal Kingdom
  • Diaper pattern is from Homemade Gifts Made Easy (you can see the template here)
  • Sentiment was just something I created and printed out on the computer
  • Sharpie marker to emphasize the little cuts for the face, feet and to color in the nose
  • Glossy Accents for the nose (to make it stand out)
  • Flocking on the body (a little hard to see)
Make sure you play with us at FIF or at least check out what the other DT members have created (you won't be disappointed)!!  We'd love to see what you create!!! Thanks so much for stopping by!!! :)

A Few of My Favorite Things Blog Hop

WELCOME!!!!  I'm so happy you were able to stop by!!! :)  Welcome to A Few of My Favorite Things blog hop (go ahead, you can sing the song)!!! :)
I'm hoping you came after visiting Erika at Cricut Love; I know you loved her project!!!  If you happen to just stop by make sure you start at the beginning with Kassidy at Inking it Up Crazy.  Truth be told, all of the crafters on the hop are SOOOOO talented, you won't want to miss a thing!!!! :)

So for my project I made a card.  I'll show you what it is and then explain 'My Favorite Things'. :)

Isn't she cute?!  This cute little card was made using some of my favorite things and actually picked out by one of my favorite things. :)
  • My little girl (one of my favs) picked out the little lamb.  It is from my favorite (so far) cartridge - Create a Critter. **Cut at 2.41 on my Gypsy - which is another favorite tool.**
  • I used some flock on the white part of the wool (close-up below) which is a fun favorite addition.
  • The face is (yep, you guessed it) a Peachy Keen Princess face - I LOVE PK Stamps, they are a favorite!
  • I used the Xyron technique (click here to see that step by step) for the hair bows.  A Xyron, Glitter and Glossy Accents are 3 favorites that work really well together. :)
  • I used pop dots so that my little lamb would stand out (like the bling and the cute face didn't do that enough). :)
  • I used my Zig glue pens to adhere the parts of my little lamb; Zig pens are an ULTIMATE FAVORITE!!
  • I used Stickles to add bling to the hearts; because I love a little glitter added to my projects and Stickles are a favorite!
  • The stamped phrase is a My Pink Stamper stamp - one of my top favorite stamp sets.
  • The ribbon is one my favorites; it is from American Crafts.
  • I used a white pen to add a little to the PK face and to do the stitching/doodling. I'm not the best at it, but I LOVE how it looks!!
  • The background paper (light green with polka dots) has some glitter to it and is from one of my favorite stacks from My Mind's Eye! :)  Another one of my Favs! :)
Here's a close up of the little lamb. :)
Well, these are a few of my favorite things (HAHAHA - I couldn't help it)!!!!  On to my blog candy.  :)  I'm giving away a few spools of my favorite ribbon as well as some chunky glitter. :)

All you need to do is leave one comment letting me know which of my favorite things is also one of your favorite things (or in your top favorites).  You'll need to have a US address; sorry, I can't afford to have it shipped outside the US (unless you would like to pay the difference). :)  One comment only, please.  Don't worry about being a follower friend, it is NOT required.  If you like my style or just want to click the follow button - I would love to have you as a FRIEND!!! :)  I love having friends! :)  If you'd like, I'd love it if you'd leave your blog address as well; it's always fun to visit others (especially if they take the time to visit me)!!! :)  That's it.  I'll pick a winner next week.
