For my projects today, I made 2 birthday cards with my Cricut Explore.  For the first one, I used a cutting file from Papercrafting World called Circle Double Picot Card.  I absolutely love this card so easy and fun.  I finished it off with some stickles.

The second card was My Scrap Chick called the Cake Card. I had some problem with sizing it as it came in two files and was sized exceptionally small.  So, it took me some time to get it sized and the sizing isn't exact.  Again, I touched off the finished card with stickles.


I want to wish a very Happy Birthday to Connie.  Thank you for stopping by.

My Woodland Critter project is a layout with skunks, raccoon, and squirrel sitting around a campfire.

  The Skunks and fire are svg files from Kadoodle Bug Designs.  The tree, moon, stars and raccoon are svg files from Stinkin Cute.  And the title and squirrel are from Cricut Design space subscription.  The Paper is from BoBunny.    The pictures are from our first trip to Leelanau State Park on the Leelanau.  Now, we go every summer!  Leelanau is my happy place.  I thought these cute woodland animals were perfect for a layout of our campfire as we always see a raccoon and squirrels.  And the skunks roasting marshmallows and a hot dog were so stinkin cute I just had to use as they seem perfect for the layout.
 On the rocks of the campfire and the rock that the raccoon is hiding behind and the one the skunk is sitting on, I used a Martha Stewart silver glitter pen.  I also used a pink glitter pen on the skunks' noses.  Otherwise, I used stickles on the animals, moon, title, and tree.





Here is the line-up in case you get lost.
Well, I hope you enjoyed my woodland critter layout, and now it is time wander through the forest over to Ronnel to see her adorable little woodland critters.
