CardzTV Blog Hop "You're the Man!" Day 2 (Sunday Team)

We're having a Blog Hop here at CardzTV. Welcome!!! This is Day 2 and this is the Sunday Team. Yesterday the Saturday Team showed off their wonderful projects.
Now if you have come from Barbara's blog, then you are in the right place. The hop is showing off one of Mary's newest stamp sets..."You're the Man!" This set has so many great and manly sentiments...and a couple mustaches! lol Check out all of Mary's stamp sets here. 

I made a card with an Action Wobble:

Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:

Cardstock: White, Tan, Teal, Black and Two Different Patterned Papers

Cricut Cartridge Accent Essentials Accent 4, page 75 (Base)

Cricut Cartridge Everyday Paper Dolls Head, page 28 (Base Shift); Farmer (Hat), page 68 (Headwear Shift)

Cricut Design Studio

CardzTV with Mary Clear Stamps You're The Man!, "You're the MAN!"; Large Mustache

Cuttlebug Embossing Folder Diamond Plate

Two Wiggle Eyes

Black Pigment Ink

Action Wobble

Small Circle Punch

Mounting Tape

Unfortunately, my camera will not let me get a picture of the Action Wobble in action. The eyes wiggle when it shakes back and forth also. I single mounted the head, the mustache and the sentiment. Now with Father's Day just around the corner, this would make a great card or it could be used for a birthday. I thought it turned out cute. Hope you do also...

Now don't forget that Mary always has some Blog Candy...2 sets of stamps...just make sure you leave a comment over there at CardzTV. Winners will be announced on Monday.

I also have some blog candy...woo hoo! Don't you just love it?

I have a 6" x 6" Designer Paper Pad and a 3 piece set of Darice Embossing Borders.

Please leave a comment AND a way to contact you on THIS post by Monday, April 29th Midnight EST. I will announce the winner on Tuesday or Wednesday. I would also appreciate it if you would become a follower.

Graduation Card

Well, I'm back...finally! Feels like I have been gone for a long time! If you read one of my earlier posts, you know that my monitor died and that I could not use my Design Studio. (I was SO lost without it!) Anyway, I wasn't sure what I was going to do...well, you won't believe this but it just started working again. WOO HOO! I am not questioning what happened, just happy that it's back.

We have a graduation next month for our niece. So, I also thought this would be perfect for two challenges...Die Cuttin' Diva's (sketch) and Celebrate the Occasion (Graduation).

Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:
Cardstock: White, Black, Yellow and Two Patterned Papers

The big tassel on the side is not attached except by the embroidery floss at the top, so it swings freely. I really like the way it turned out.

Hope you like the card. I would love for you to become a follower and/or leave a comment....thanks for stopping by....

Going to go work on another card or two, maybe even a layout (and finish the wash...lol)...

...imagine what you could do......

Papercraft Star Challenge 31 - Sketch

What a difference a couple of days can make. My husband and I redid our powder room...took down wallpaper, painted, put in a new vanity/sink and put up a new light fixture. Still need the finishing touches, but wow, what a difference. Anyway...to the challenge...

Here is my card for this week:

We had to use this sketch:

Lollipop Cards

Well, as you can see, I drifted down from the ceiling, (lol), and I am writing my second post for today.

After seeing Robin's " Lolli Pop Shape Cards", (Robin's Creative Cottage), I made these:

I used lollipop sticks, plastic candy wrappers (rather than cellophane) and I think mine are smaller than Robin's. I hope she likes my version.

Finished Card: 2 1/2" x 5 1/4" (including stick)

Materials:
Cardstock: Various Patterned Paper and White
Cricut Cartridge Accent Essentials Accent 1 (Circle) page 32 (Base Shift), Accent 19 (Swirl) page 50 (Base)
Lollipop Sticks
Candy Wrappers
Ribbon
Crystal Clear Glitter
Computer Printed Sentiment "So Sweet"
Pigment Ink (Various colors to ink around sentiment)

I thought these were just so adorable. You could use them for birthdays, baby showers, etc. Just change the paper...imagine what you could do....
