Mom's Day Blog Hop

Hello Everyone and Welcome to the MOM'S DAY BLOG HOP!!!  This is my very first blog hop and I'm super excited!  There are 26 amazing designers in this blog hop who have some pretty fabulous creations for you to enjoy.  If you are hopping with us today and have just come here from Liz, then you are in the right place.  If you are just joining us and want to join in on all the blog hoppin' fun, then click HERE.   

Now, sit back and relax as I give you just a taste of one of my biggest passions....CRAFTING!!!

I'm the kind of papercrafter who doesn't like to waste anything, whether that be paper, Cricut cut-out's that don't work out, ribbon, etc.  When I started thinking about what to make for this blog hop, I started thumbing through my favorite Cricut cartridge...Create a Critter.  When I saw the picture of the cute bird house, I came up with the idea to have a big mommy birdie and a smaller daughter birdie.  I had a slightly hard time trying to get everything to fit "just right" on this card.  And this is my end result.  I think it turned out quite sweet.


~Recipe~
Card Size : 4.25 x 5.5 inches on cream color paper
Blue layer : 4 x 5.25 inches
Bird House : cut at 3.5 inches from Create a Critter
Mommy Bird : cute at 3 inches from Create a Critter
Daughter Bird : cut at 2.5 inches from Create a Critter
Embossing on house roof and heart from Swiss Dots Embossing Folder
