Happy Birthday: Once Upon A Princess Cricut cartridge

Ok, first, let me apologize for the crappy blurry picture. I was in a hurry to take it thinking that I got a good one, but I guess I didn't look close enough, so I apologize for the picture.....

I made this card for my little niece Anna who turned 7 last week. She is a little princess so I though it would be perfect to use my new Once Upon A Princess cartridge. There are so many cute things on this cartridge...


Products used: Bazzill cardstock, Doodlebug sugarcoated cardstock, May Arts ribbon, Little Yellow Shoebox letter stickers, misc. rhinestones

Don't Forget

Well, you probably think that I *HAVE* forgotten.....about my blog. It seems like forever since I last posted. I have been slacking something awful and I am hoping to get back into the groove of blogging and posting my latest creations.. good and bad, lol.

Ok, so, not sure if I have blogged about this before, but at the beginning of the year, Bitten By the Bug was taken over by a new leader with a new board and all... The other site will still be around for those that like to look back on all of the great things posted there. Life was just getting too hectic for Regina, so she handed the duties over to someone else. Click HERE to go to the new site. "Don't Forget" to bookmark it!!

Now on with the goodies... our challenge for BBTB2 was to use the Elephant from the Everyday Paperdolls cart. Both of these paperdolls carts are great, even if you aren't a big paperdoll fan. There are so many extras and goodies on the carts, they truly are jammed pack with great cuts. so here is what I came up with using the elephant. When I was looking for paper, I couldn't find *one* piece or even scrap of gray paper, so I cut him out of white and used Slate Glimmer Mist to make him gray.
