Hoppin' things are well card

This card is for a friend who is having a rough recovery from a recent surgery.  I bought this stamp last year from a sale bin somewhere and it's just been waiting for the right card to come along-it and the bunny from the Disney Classics cart were made to be together!  I did have to get the tweezers involved to get all the little pieces onto the bunny.  I have to keep reminding myself that images on any of the Disney carts are best cut at a larger size!!!!!

Sweet Melody card

Quarter Note has proven to be a great cartridge for me-I keep going to it over and over again!  Son#1 was given a dulcimer and needed a thank you note.  I whipped out Quarter note and the My Pink Stamper set Music Speaks and had that card done in no time!

Spring layout (with Pooh and Friends)

It is spring here in the Midwest and so pretty!  All my tulips are in bloom!  (The downside is the pollen is ALSO in bloom or whatever pollen does...but I digress.)  We've been outside having fun a lot, so I made a layout for some of these pics using Pooh and Friends.   Between the springy paper colors and the cute Pooh characters I was definitely feeling high on happy (as my kids would say)!  Since I've been digging into my Disney carts for a bunch of layouts, I got inspired to use them on a non-Disney layout as well.

Cricut:

Pooh and Friends-all other cuts
Paper-background paper is The Paper Studio, print on photo mats is October Afternoon, rest is scraps

Edited to add:  Pooh, Tigger, and Roo each represent one of the kids romping outside (they will know which one they are :0)
I'm going to link this to the Exploring Cricut challenge this week "It's a Spring Thing".

Under construction card

Son#3 needed a thank you for a lego set he received, so I put this card together with some lego stickers I had left over from another project  that were in the stash.  They are really fun and look like actual legos!  The Under Construction stamp is from the My Pink Stamper set Boy Crazy.  I'm linking this to the Celebrate the Occasion challenge this week to make a thank you card.

flying high layout

Spring is in the air and so are trips to the park!   We spent a lovely early evening in March swinging at the park and shopping for some spring clothes (those darn kids keep outgrowing their clothes-what is up with that?), so I had fun doing a layout with more of the Echo Park A Boy's Life collection.  The title flying high is from 3 Birds on Parade-perfect for those action shots on the swings, since they were challenging each other to see who could go the highest.

Have a Blast card

Made this for Son#3, for a lunchbox card for him.  He loves to build rockets and spaceships with his legos, so he will really like this one, I think.  The rocket is from Boys Will Be Boys and the sentiments are from a My Pink Stamper set called Lunchbox Thoughts.  I'm linking it to the Paper Playtime challenge to make a guy card with a sentiment.

Rock & Roll layout

The challenge this week at Die Cuttin Divas is music!  I've had this layout in mind since I got the Echo Park It's A Boy's Life paper and saw the journal block with the guitar-perfect for pics of some Lego Rock Band action on the Wii.   We have pics of the family unleashing our inner arena rock stars that will go on here!  (Be very very grateful you don't have to hear us sing, because DS#2 is the only one who can sing worth a lick!)  I used Quarter Note for the musical instruments.
