Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog: A Pirate's Life!!

I had no idea what to do for this week's Challenge Me Monday over at FCCB!!!! The challenge this week is A Pirate's Life and I just didn't know what to do! However, after perusing my cartridges...I came up with this!


Recipe:
Cricut Cartridge: B is for Boy Lite
Cardstock: Stampin' Up! And DCVW
Ribbon from my stash
Tim Holtz Brads
Sakura White Gelly Roll Pen

So, the card turned out a little plain, but oh well! I'm giving it to my uncle for his Birthday....he won't notice the lack of BLING!! LOL!!!
What can you come up with for this week's challenge? Head on over to FCCB and see what the other lovely ladies on the DT came up with....and then link up your own!!
Can't wait to see what you create!!!

I've got a new NEPHEW!! :)

When we got the news last night that my SIL had her baby, I just had to throw together a cute little card to bring to them in the hospital. They didn't know if it was a boy or a girl, so I made a unisex card for her shower, but needed a gender-specific card for the actual arrival! So, I took a look at some of the challenges available to me and came up with this!
I'm entering this in the following challenges:
Cooking with Cricut: Use a Lion or Lamb
DieCuttin' Divas: Use a Baby animal cut
My Craft Spot: Tie a Bow
