CTO Challenge 40: Thanksgiving Themed Project With Buttons - Bountiful Blessings

Hello my treasured friends!

Got a quick post for you all today! I've been super swamped with group papers, which I won't be done until next week. Then the holidays will kick off! Of course I'll still have finals to worry about as well though ;) I'll have to put off all my commenting until then, sorry!!

Before I get into my project for today, I just wanted to mention that Erica from Erica's Craft Room is having a seasonal design team call which I'll be part of! Each day beginning in December, her and the design team will be featuring 25 projects, all the way up till Christmas! That's right, that's a total of 625 projects with a theme for each day! There's still spots open if you're interested! You can get the information here.

Now for today's challenge over at Celebrate the Occasion, the challenge is to create a Thanksgiving themed project and incorporate buttons. Here in Canada we celebrated Thanksgiving last month, but I wanna wish all of my American friends a Happy Thanksgiving! I hope that you all are surrounded by your loved ones this Thanksgiving.

Here's a peek inside the card:

Trail of Treasures:

• Card Base - used Nestabilities scalloped circle, cut in kraft cardstock, embossed with the Cuttlebug Diamond Plate Embossing Folder, and added irock gems on each scallop
• Layer - cut from DCWV Harvest Gathering Stack
• Cute Indian Girl - cut at 2.5" from the Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge, used the Peachy Keen Simple Sallies Face Assortment, PK-531 for the face, added a button and feather, and some Orange Truffle Twine by Trendy Twine for the bows
• Sentiment for Inside of Card - used Pink By Design  Bountiful Blessings stamp set

Sending bountiful blessings to you this Thanksgiving season!

Until next time's treasures,

My Hunny Bunny

Hello everyone!

It has been a while since I posted anything, but let me assure you that I've been longing to get crafting! In between homework, studying, working, mom duties (my mother is away on a trip), and getting over a bad case of the flu, crafting seems near to impossible. Today however, I decided that I really needed to rest, and card-making is good rest :) I really wanted to participate in the Peachy Keen Sketch Challenge 48 (sketch provided below) and Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge.

For Emma's Challenge she asked to use an older cartridge and the colour GREEN. Scrapbookaholic By Abby's Challenge is to create anything Spring, so this card will be entered over there too! :) In addition, the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog's Challenge #53 is to create a project using any spring time theme, so this project will be there as well!

So here it goes! I made this card for my boyfriend that I'll probably give to him over Easter :) I've been dying to use the Cricut Lite Cartridge, Bloom for the fence. I got it basically because of the fence! I haven't used it till now cuz I knew it would be perfect for this card!

 

With the fence closed, this is what the card looks like. 

And here is my hunny bunny!
