Oops... fell off the wagon!

As my challenge addiction rears its ugly head (again) and tempts me beyond what any mortal crafter can stand... I have fallen off the wagon!  I CAN'T HELP IT!  Any addict will tell you...
 
But I mustn't beat myself up about it, no... I must just move on from this little slip... and here it is -
 
 
The card consists of a white card base, with a Kraft paper mat, onto this is adhered a piece of 'FOREVER FRIENDS' 'Kraft Notes' paper which has been punched using 'X CUT' 'Sparkler'.  

 
The 'Onsie' is cut using my Cricut Expression from the 'WRAP IT UP' cartridge, the 'Rattle' is cut from the 'WILD CARD' cartridge and the frames are from the 'ELEGANT EDGES' catridge.  The frames have added glitter, the rattle has added pearls and the onsie has been embossed and has an added heart embellishment.  The yellow butterflies are epoxy stickers from my stash, as are the yellow buttons.


The sentiment stamps I discovered in my stash (very, very old!).

Everyday? A Learning Curve!

Right... so that worked!  I think I'm getting there!
 
I'm going to enter into another challenge (surprise!), this one is a 'Created With Love' Challenge.  I stumbled upon this site quite by accident (like most of my surfing!), But the challenge sounded interesting and since I knew I'd use the card after (not just create for create's sake - who am I kidding LOL).  I'm having a go. 
 
So... the focus is on 'birthdays' and the twist is that it MUST have a 'number'...
 
 
 
 
The shaped card is cut from the 'Wild Card' cricut cartridge and the '50' is from the 'Alphabet' cartridge (pre-installed on the Expression 2).  I used My Mind's Eye  'Wild Asparagus' paper pack on a 6x6 card blank, with a little bit of velvet rik-rak ribbon and a peel off, here is my entry...
