KRAFT CAS-ual Friday

I can't believe how long it has been since I have done a CAS-ual Friday challenge! They are my favorite challenges and it feels so fun and exciting to do one again!!

The challenge this week is to use Kraft. I was really excited because I have just recently got really into using Kraft cardstock.
So here is my Clean and Simple creation for the challenge-

Happy Halloween!

Up close shot.

I know it's not a scary card like most Halloween cards, but I just love pumpkins. Nothing screams Halloween to me like pumpkins!

Enjoy and have a fun and safe Halloween night!

Bad, bad, bad, crafter!

I am a horrible, horrible, horrible crafter! Not only did I not get that page layout down, I haven't even touched my craft room in months!
Everything just seemed to get away from me. I went on vacation for about a month, came home and had 2 days to get my little one ready for her first day of kindergarten. After about 2 weeks of school I went away for the weekend with my mother in law to help my sister in law with her son.
After that I have just been trying to catch up with being a mommy to two little school-ers.
Anyway, my craft room got so crazy messy that it literally took me 3 days to clean and re organize it, and I still have things just sitting around and not actually put away.
Well my sister's school is having an auction to raise money for the band, so she asked me to make some cards, so I made 7, and here they are!

Thinking of You.
this one is my favorite.

Get Well Soon
I'm not happy with my little doodles, but still turned out cute

Thanks!
I was trying something fancy with only embossing the bottom corner.
  I don't think I'll do that again. (= But other then that I like this one as well.

Celebrate the Season
I really like this one, and I am thinking that I am going to  make some of these for Christmas this year.

Happy Birthday
Came out a little busy for me, but it's done and I wanted to try the banner thing.
Guess it's not my thing, LOL.

Congratulations
I really like this one, and I got this idea from a sketch on pinterest.

I Miss You
I actually made this one a really long time ago for the CAS-ual Friday challenge, but I thought it would be nice to add to the mix.

So that's all I have for now. I am really sorry that I have been gone for so long, if any of you even follow which I hope there are at least a few. If so I really appreciate you following along, hope you enjoyed today's post. (=

Over the Moon....

Over the moon in love with you!

I really liked the way this card came out, and of coarse it is for the CAS-ual Friday Challenge.

My goal this week is to do at least one page layout; I am so behind on scrapbooking pages for the girls albums, it ridiculous!

Hope you guys have a great weekend!

2 cards, 2 blogs

I had a space cadet moment and accidentally published my craft post on my family blog. If anyone knows how to get it to un-publish and then save so I can re-post it on the correct blog PLEASE let me know!

Anyway, so you don't have to go back and forth here is the picture for the card this week, (and last week)...

This was for last weeks challenge, but I didn't have time to post it.
But I loved the way it came out, so I  had to share. (=

 

I was over at kwernerdesign and was completely inspired by this post, so I incorporated it into the card. (=

Here is the link to the full post on my family blog in case you are interested. (=

CAS-ual Friday challenge

Quick post for the CAS-ual Friday challenge this week. I really, really need to post more during the week, but we have been super busy and I LOVE these challenges! (=



Here's the card:

I used the vellum on the bee for his wings and for the grass at the bottom of the card.
Thanks all for checking it out. (=

Name change!

I decided to change the name of my blog.

I liked Miss T's Crafts because I live in Texas and everyone down here says Miss, Mrs, or Mr. My name is Cristina, but  I go by Tina. A few years ago my mommy in law decided to drop the 'na' part from my name and just call me T.
Well after a while I didn't really like that the blog name sounded like Misty's Crafty Things, because, well my name is not Misty.

After thinking about it for a while I decided that my favorite craft fashion is cute! I love vintage, and distressing, and glamour, and even modern, I love ANY type of craft, paper or not. But the kind I like to make, and the type that  I seem to be best at is CUTE!
I looked up my name Tina once in baby name book and it said, little, lively and cute, I am not sure that I agree with all that, but I do like that it helped me decide on my new blog name.

Cute-T-Crafts. So when you are saying it, it sounds like, cutie crafts! (=
I'm a dork I know but I love it anyway!

Have a great week/weekend all!
