Dream BIG Frame

My niece & Godchild just made 2 years old.  I wanted to make something for her that I had not done before.  I had picked up a couple of frames when they were on sale & wanted to make something different.  Everything for her since she has been born has revolved around butterflies.  So I thought about a scenic picture & this is what I came up with.  It was fairly easy considering I don't really scrapbook.  Because of that, I didn't leave a place for a picture, but this can always be modified.  I just thought this would be cute hanging in her room.
Also being entered into Made By Momo's Tuesday Challenge.

Details:
I used my Gypsy and Cricut to design & create this frame.  I used lots & lots of carts on this project & lots of inking.  I use a wood grain stamp on the trunk if the tree.  I had to cut the tree out 3 times, twice in brown & once in tan.  I cut the swing seat off of the extra brown one & the ropes off of the tan one.
Cricut Carts. Used:  Just Because Cards (Sun & Tree), Everyday Paper Dolls (Clouds), Stamping (Birds & Butterfly - right), Create A Critter (grass), Gypsy Wanderings (Butterfly - lower left), Graphically Speaking (Butterfly - upper left), Walk in My Garden (Sunflowers), Home Accents (dream), A Child's Year (BIG)

Cuttlebug Challenge: A Child at Heart

I made this card for the Cuttlebug Challenge Blog. This challenge is A Child at Heart. We were to make a card for a child in our life.
This challenge was in perfect timing for me. It is for my daughter. She is 9 years old & we have been having some power struggles lately. (Those with daughters - I'm sure you know what I mean - at any age.) So, I made this card & wrote a personal note to her inside. Basically, just to tell her that she is unconditionally loved.
Details:
Butterfly - Graphically Speaking Cricut Cart.
Stamp - From Michael's $1 Bin
Pearl Ex on the butterfly (not showing well in the pic)
Fiskar's Wavy Crimper (Joann's clearance for $2.97) Yay me!! I never find those deals!!!

FRIENDS Wordbook - A Work In Progress

This project is a work in progress. I don't usually post about unfinished work. But Cute and Some is having its Contributors Showcase #6 this week. The guidelines for the projects are: It can be any type of project. It just has to have the colors green, or purple, or both and include a flower. When I read this, I knew I had to enter this project even if unfinished.
I am making this for my niece that is turning 13 at the end of this month. Her favorite colors are green & purple.
