Little Boy Blue

Hi this is Suzanne your hostess for the challenge this week at BBTB2..  I came up with this challenge "Little Boy Blue" as my first grandson is due anytime now.   This is a big change for our family as I had two girls and they have blessed me with three girls so far.  I am looking forward to scrapping in blue now after a world full of pink.   So for this challenge I am asking the design team and everyone up for the challenge this week to create a project for a boy using the color blue.   It does not have to be a baby project.    I can't wait to see what everyone makes.
And now on to the fantastic DT projects to inspire you.  I know they always inspire me.

Things that fly in nature


Monday, Monday, Bitten by the Bug 2 Monday.  Welcome to all, my name is Sandi Kelly, and it is my turn to host our Challenge.  As we approach Autumn (my very favorite season of the year) flora and fauna begin to change and morph into glorious colors, there's a crispness to the air and aromas waft with promises of pumpkin pie and carmeled apples.  I love nature at this time of the year, things flying high over head intent on warmer destinations.  Dragonflies and Butterflies doing their last dances atop flowers, it is magical.  So we invite you to partake of our winged creatures and then we ask that you play along.  Please remember your focus cut must be a Cricut cut.  Rules for our challenge are posted, top.  Please visit our designer blogs, there is usually some great info as well as fab projects.  Thanks for visiting today and have a great week, hugs

In Honor

Hi my crafty friends, Brenda here and I'm hosting this weeks challenge. The challenge is to honor our soldiers and emergency workers because the 11th anniversary of 9/11 is coming up.  I know that 9/11 changed my life and that of my son who is a full time soldier in the Army.  He was 19 years old when he was sent over at the start of the war in Iraq, he will be 30 years old on the 12th of Sept. and has been deployed 5 times getting ready to leave on his 6th deployment so I thought this was the perfect time to give thanks for our soldiers and emergency workers who have shown their bravery on that fateful day.  So use any Cricut cart you wish, making any project of your choice and give honor to those that serve our beautiful country!  Please check out our fabulous design team for they have some awesome projects for you.  Please make sure to link back to us when you post your project on your blog and remember to have a Cricut cut on your project.  You have one week to link up.  Looking forward to your projects and don't forget to leave some bloggy love to our awesome design team members!!  Happy crafting!

All Shaped Up

Good morning everyone. It's Stephanie here today with a new challenge at BBTB2. I thought it would be fun to make a shape card. You can use any cartridge and any theme. It just must be cut with the cricut. There are so many possibilities.
This card is very simple. It is cut from the Fontopia cartridge at 5" with all the layers. I used Designer's  Calendar for the jester hat cut at 1.47 and the mask cut at 3.0. A little bling, glitter and a couple of nesties labels.
I hope you'll join us. We love to see what you come up with.
