** April card challenge!! **

For this month's challenge...

Make a card that features cuteness of any sort!

~ It could be a stamped image
~ Embellishment
~ Cute patterns
~ Or a cute greeting



Also as a bonus here are some sketches that might help you get inspired!

Just post your cards to this thread, then one lucky person will be chosen as a 'winner' and will receive a goodie of a prize through the post courtesy of Leo (CraftyPrincess).

I'm a "newbie"! Just joined up and having a mooch around the threads - is it easy to add a picture if I have a go at this?

Thanks Nat, will be having a go with this one XX

JJay, as long as you make your picture small enough (800 x 600) i think you can upload it in your post. Click go advanced and you'll see a button called manage attachments and you can add it there. Alternatively you can upload it to a site like www.photobucket.com and link directly from there.

Thanks

Thanks - I will have a go (assuming I make a card in the first place!). No doubt I will learn all the techie things about UK scrappers as I go along...

Welcome to the forum JJay x

Welcome to the forum JJay. :) Hope you join in.

just recently purchase the scor pal at the NEC and have been playing :D

Hi everyone

All the cards are fab well done everyone :-)

I need some help to find out how to post the picture in my post rather than an attachment. But here goes ....Attachment 137970

Attachment 137971

Couldn't decide which one to post so i've done two :P

Sorry about the poor photography

Uber Cuteness everyone!! Love those stamps too JayKay who are they by and Jafman whats the score pal that looks ace!!
Gonna have to take part in this before the end of the month!

the scor pal is a score board. if you google scor pal you get to their web site. They have lots of downloadable instructions for a good variety of things to make. ie boxes etc. I've got the mat that fits into it as well, so it just sits on my work space and I don't have to keep moving it when I need it, I just lift the mat off (which you can cut on one side of).

Very pretty cards everyone - mine are fairly quirky .... :rolleyes: :lol:

I love using coloured bases and there are loads of stuff on top - big flower bases are stickers from the Poundshop, with coloured peel-offs :ph34r:, brads, buttons etc on top ...

Those butterfly/dragonfly stickers are from when I first started crafting, over 6 years ago now ... they're a bit weird, but they make me happy! :)

Hi everybody - some lovely cards in this thread! You have inspired me - it's been ages since I have done any crafting but I have just treated myself to a Cricut and have made a card a day for the last few days! Here's a couple of cute ones....

My entry for this month using kraft paper, american crafts rub ons, pink petticoat paper cut with the robo and ribon from stash.

Oooh fab and cute cards!

Trish what cartridge did you get - is it the Nancy Kubo critter one?

Anna, I love the little birdie!

Lovely to see all this cuteness!

Here's my card for this challenge.

I don't usually do cute (or decoupage for that matter) but decided to use up a decoupage sheet I had free with a cardmaking magazine and have a go at this challenge. I only used the main image and just a couple of decoupage elements but I'm really pleased with the result.

Sorry photos are pretty poor but it's the best I can manage !!

Hi Nat - yes, it's the Create A Critter one. Is it Nancy Kubo? Now that you say it, they do look a lot like her sort of thing!

I also got the Give a Hoot and Just Because cartridges, Robotz is next on my list!

LOL, I can spot a Nancy Kubo critter a mile off eh? LOL I am so jealous you have this cart, I don't even have a cricut! lol

Loved the owl too of course. ^_^

Yes, I think the owl is one of the cutest things on there! Have just been and looked at Nancy Kubo's blog - doh! No wonder I was drawn to this cartridge! I would deinately recommend it, LOL.

Have still got my Robo but sold my slice to fund the cricut, have wanted one for aaaaaaages so decided it was time to splash out...:rolleyes:

I have developed a slight obsession with Amercian Crafts. My name is Anna and I am addicted.

Anyway.... another cute one :)

You're not the only one Anna, AC rocks :D

All the cards look super cute this month :)

Fab card Anna, yes the AC habit is a tough one to break! LOL I still have a 2x2" scrap of one of my favourite papers and have put off using it because then it will be no more. :( Sad or what?

Okey dokey, here goes with some cuteness from me...

This is my first attempt at attaching pictures on UKS so hopefully it will work!
