Hi Crafty Sprout Friends. Today we are kicking off another new feature that will be happening on the blog. Today we have Feature Friday for you, which means every other Friday we will be showcasing one of the Crafty Sprout stamp sets. *This Feature Friday will be replacing the DT Fridays we had last year*. 
To start off our series, we thought we would bring you a little monster love (lol) with MONSTER KISSES.

Super cute, right?! As you can see the Monster Kisses set has many cute versatile Monster sentiments geared towards birthdays, newborns and general. However, it is also excellent to make your Valentine Day projects a little extra special ;)  


Our final card is from Carley. She gave us this uber cute monster card as a sneak peek of our next Feature Friday. Isn't he adorable and the sentiment is soo fitting.

Happy Friday!

Sprouts Edition Tuesday #1

Hi Crafty Sprout Friends. Today we are kicking off a new feature, Sprouts Edition Tuesday, which means every Tuesday we will be showcasing one of the Crafty Sprout gals. To start off our series, Sandra has her baby shower invitations to share with us.

***************


For my project I made 30 baby shower invitations for my Princess themed baby shower coming up. I used 2 different Cricut cartridges to create these, Life's A Party and the Teresa Collins Sophisticated Cricut cartridges. I used my Gypsy to weld 2 onesie's together to create a shaped card. I put pink Stickles on all of the crowns and used an assortment of stamps from the "Rock That Baby Bump" stamp set.

Isn't that a super cute onesie invite. Make sure to visit our 365 Days of Cricut gal to see the rest of it.
Thanks for stopping by.

Also please provide the link (or picture) of the card that you CASED. ** You can also case one of the cards from this post**

Prize: Up for grabs is this adorable Peachy Cupid.

Hey crafty ladies! Erika here!! For my project for this challenge I decided to case Jess's SUPER cute shaped card! I just love the shape of the card and the texture and of course the Kraft cardstock! 
 Whatcha think? I am excited that I finally got to use this cutie image!!

Now onto the DT Gals ... They were inspired by the focal shape, image, sketch (lo), colors, etc

Fanpire Bookmarks

Hi there! Zeni here wishing everyone a happy Tuesday!  I wanted to share these cute bookmarks I made for my daughters who just love the Twilight series.  I found the big paper clips at Staples and thought they were big enough to add something on top and use for a bookmark.  The Fanpire set has some great stamps to create bookmarks for the little Fanpire in your life! Lol!  I also used My Creative Time's Scalloped and Stitched circle die set.

here is the front of them

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a beautiful day!
