Bitten by the Bug Kitchen Challenge

Hello everyone!  It's time for another awesome BBTB2 challenge.  Julia asked us to do a "Kitchen Challenge".  You can create a card, layout or 3 D project using anything you find in your kitchen and

any Cricut cartridge.  

For my project I made a card using the From My Kitchen Cricut cart.  

The apron is from page 51.  

The recipe card can be found on several pages of the From My Kitchen Cart.  

The phrase What's Cookin?  is from Three Birds on Parade page 55.

Many Thanks on the inside comes from the Phrases cart page 22.   

The background paper is from TPC studio Spice Rack and the blue paper is DCWV Kitchen stack.  The other papers are from my stash.  

All the cuts are inked with Tim Holtz Vintage Photo. 

The larger rick rack is from Joanns.  

The teeny tiny yellow rick rack is from my mom's sewing box so is over 50 years old. 

When I was little my mom and grandma always wore aprons they made and they almost always had rick rack on them.  

Inside of card 

I hope you will leave a comment and check out what all the other BBTB2 designers have created.  Then get out your Cricut carts and join us for the challenge.  You have two weeks to complete your project and we would love to have you join in.  Happy Craftin!

Princess Kenzie and her throne

I have been sick all week and am actually under quarantine until Monday.  Great way to spend my week off from babysitting while my daughter is on Spring Break isn't it?  So I have been designing on my Gypsy and finally felt well enough to work in my craft room awhile today.  The pictures are of my granddaughter Kenzie. The first page is her sitting in one of my "bear chairs" and the other page is her feeding her baby doll and playing at Grammy's.

The first thing I like about Halloween is all the "little" kids dressed in costumes.  Whether it be a party, trick or treating or when I was teaching I always enjoy seeing kids dressed up.  
Here is my project for Day one of the Blog Hop.  I choose to do a layout using Happy Hauntings, Three Birds and Paper Doll Dress Up.  Here are the pictures and the recipe is below. 

Recipe:  All the costumed characters are cut at 4 inches from Paper Doll Dress Up Cartridge.  The bodies were done with the blackout cut and then I used Peachy Keen stamps.  The little treat bags were cut with Three Birds.  They were a little big so I cut them down some by hand.  I added Stickles, gems, and  chalk ans Smooch Ink.  The haunted house is from Happy Hauntings and was cut at 8 inches.

Have a great day and please stop back tomorrow for another great project.
