Craft Junkie Too's Summer Craft Challenge/ Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge#31

HI all!!
wow I have not posted in awhile, so sorry, I have not felt very creative lately, so I thought why not check out some challenges to try and get my mojo flowing again, so ....... here is my entry for Craft Junkie Too's Summer Craft Challenge, and Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge #31,
for CJT she asked for a summer related project, so I made a summery birthday card and for PKS I followed the sketch,

here is the card I made....

I had fun with this sketch, I used CAC cartridge, and I used PKS Simple Simons (PK-530)for the crabs face, Stickles, and I used Maya Mist on the sand and the sand castle, they are so shimmery, and I wrote "Crabby Birthday" on the castle for the semtiment.( my attempt to be funny.....sorry)
I would love to know what you think, thanks for stopping by.

Treat Cards

Can I tell you that This Create A Critter cartridge from Provo Craft, is my all time favourite!!!! the Hippo was cut from there, but the Bear was from Doodlecharms. So I stopped by one of my new fovourite blogs the other day, Veronica's Cricut Creations and Veronica had made the cutest Treat Card with a bee on it, using a Wilton candy mold, she has a video to explain how to do this you can watch it here.
So I got out my gypsy and started to play with some images and cut out the Bear card first, then I did the Hippo, I love how they turned out!!! I also used some glossy accents, some stickles and lots of pop dots.

Our First Cake

So today was the day, to try out my Cricut Cake, it is definitely fun to use.
My son's ex-girlfriend(they are still very good friends) Alexandra wanted to make her mom a birthday cake, so I thought this was a good time to try it out, this is my first time using fondant ever, so there are a few wrinkles, but it wasn't to bad and I think I will get better at it, now to choose our images, well our first image choice cut nice, but were impossible to get off the mat and on to the cake. on to plan B choosing new images, these worked much better. by now I was also dealing with a very impatient 17yr old, LOL. well before long things were getting exciting again, and it was starting to look really nice. In the end she was very happy with how it turned out and her mom loved it. I hope you enjoy the pictures, we would love to hear what you think of it.
Oh and yes that butterfly is very sparkly, Alexandra loves the bling bling, and the butterfly needed something, so she went to my craft stuff, and promised she would not let anyone eat the butterfly, and she stickled it LMAO !!!!
