PKS Guest Designer 2011

Today I had a good time using my Gypsy along with 3 cartridges to create a card that ROCKS!!  Literally.  It rocks back and forth.  LOL!  I used the Cricut Lite Carousel cartridge to make the majority of the card.  It has a very plain circus bear on that cartridge, but with the addition of layering, embossing, Stickles and the Peachy Keen stamps that I used, PK-754 Critter Faces Set A, I was able to give this bear some much needed pizazz!

Here’s the card in progress. Hey, there’s a Joy’s Life “You Rock” stamp sitting with the Peachy Keen face.

Here’s a link to the post I talked about in the video: Stickles Distress, Regular & Glitz Compared.

I hope your day ROCKS!
