This card took maybe 7 minutes to make - paper choices and itty-bitty gluing with my Scotch brand Quick Dry Adhesive were the most time consuming parts. I cut this card at 10" to make a 5"x5" card.

Although I prefer to create elegant creations, cutesy cards are sometimes fun to make as well.
ReplyDeleteI love all card & scrapbook designs! Thank you, Joy.
ReplyDeleteI love both elegant and cutesy depending on the person I an sending it to and the occasion. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

I like elegant for my card designs, but cutesy for my scrapbook pages. (Can you tell I'm working on the album of my 3 year old granddaughter?). Jan G

I like both cutesy & elegant depending on the tone or mood.

I like both elegant and whimsical and use both in my cardmaking. I am in the process of building up my cartridge inventory. Roylene
ReplyDeleteI really like both,Elegant for the more formal occasions and cute for those times when I'm in a more lite hearted mood. I have recently found your blog and I'm loving it. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI don't belong to a kit club, I'm curious though. What are they?
ReplyDeleteI think it is so cool for Cricut to giveaway free cuts during the time before a holiday. It's helping to re-establish some of my faith in them since customer service isn't always that great....
ReplyDeleteYou took just the right 4 minutes to pick out great paper for the card and the 2 minutes to cut. I'm heading into CCR now....thanks for hosting another great giveaway.
Usually I play around with the cartriges that I have and when an idea pops into me head, I go for it. Sometimes elegant and somtines whimsical. I like them both.
ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of CTMH products! I wish you only the best with your CTMH business!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing the Father's Day card today!
I'm looking forward to winning the Create-A-Critter 2 cartridge.
Thank you for this opportunity!
I like both. Elegant for wedding layouts, cute for grandkids birthday cards. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Joy for joining CTMH. It is a fabulous company and I love being a consultant! Your card is really cute. I do not belong to a kit club; but I offer two of them to my CTMH customers on my blog. I would love to win the Create A Critter 2 cartridge! Thanks for this opportunity. Have a wonderful day!! Hugs, Gloria

I like both elegant and cutesy - depends on my mood and depends on the occasion. Love your site and your gallery.
ReplyDeleteIn the summertime I tend to do more quirky fun projects.
ReplyDeleteI would so love to win this cartridge!!
It depends on my mood. I like both elegant and cutesy. I love all your great ideas.
ReplyDeleteI like both cutsey and elegant, it just depends on my mood!
ReplyDeleteI prefer cutesy. Create a Critter 2 would be so fun to win.

I don't belong to a kit club but I love CTMH and use it exclusively. I love the Create a Critter cartridge and would love to win it.
ReplyDeleteI would love to have the Create-a-Critter 2 cartridge. I make all of my niece and nephews birthday and holiday cards and this would be perfect. I really enjoy your cards and ideas, have used many of them. I like the cutesy cards because I do so many cards for kids in my family..Stacy B. in PDX.
ReplyDeleteI just love seeing your creations! I don't belong to any kit clubs, although I have thought about it but just don't want to make a commitment for fear of getting overrun with supplies (I'm not the most prolific paper crafter)! TFS :)
ReplyDeleteLove the Father's day card, but unfortunately I don't have a father to make one for,
ReplyDeleteI don't belong to any card kit, I usually make my cards with scraps from left overs from my layouts
thanks for the change to win.
Wow all the things that you can make with the CAC2 is just amazing. Would love to have it.
ReplyDeletescrappinlaurie@yahoo.com
I like both, depending on what the subject of my page is. Most of my grand-kids and dogs are cutesy but the book I am doing for our favorite winery is more formal and elegant.
ReplyDeleteLove the Fathers' Day card.
Jill from Manteca CA
Thanks for the chance to win! Those creatures are too too cute! I don't even know what a kit club is! I'll have to research that right now...
ReplyDeleteJulie
Oh what an awesome cartridge to giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI love the super easy but super cute cards on CCR!
ReplyDeleteI like the mix of both. Elegant is probably more my style though! Keep em coming!
ReplyDeleteI do not belong to a kit club because I only make cards. I make several of the same kind of cards and the kits do not work for me. Love the fathers day card.
ReplyDeleteI love doing page layouts either way. It all depends on what the topic is I am scrapping.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to add another cart to my small Cricut collection.
Cute card! I used the free CCR cuts last year but I may take a look again...No I don't belong to a kit club but I do wish I had the motivation to complete more projects...so maybe one day!
ReplyDeletecute card for a golfer dad. tfs. I do not belong to a kit club.
ReplyDeleteOoooh,this is a hard one, I like them both cutesy and elegant. I guess it all depends on the reason for the project that I'm working on, but I do tend to do more cutesy projects.
ReplyDeleteJ Cooney
Great card!
ReplyDeleteWow, another chance to win Create a Critter 2 which I love but don't have. I have tried kits but they don't really seem to work for me. I send cards to all our siblings and nieces & nephews and am just starting to make my own. How perfect this cartridge would be for me, thank you for making this chance possible. BertW
ReplyDeleteI prefer elegant over cutesy, but use both frequently. Maybe I should join a kit club to get my lazy juices flowing again - have never belonged to any. Nelda Deakins
ReplyDeleteHave to love those easy cards for hurried projects! No kit clubs for me yet. Gets a little pricey when it's all said and done. There are a few I would consider though if I could comfortably swing it. Thanks, Joy!

Wow what a great giveaway! I would love to make my daughter's classroom some decorations with this cart. Could also make some cute scrapbooking apges and some cards to give away. I just love to create. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI love elegant and cutesy...depends on what my mood and what I am creating it for. :o)
ReplyDeleteI belong to the SEI card and scrapbooking club. Love my kits every month. I think when you belong to a club for awhile, you need to change up, as I did belong to Piggy Tales, after about 2 years, it seemed to be a lot of what I already had. I have belonged to Club SEI for 3 years now, and I may have to change it up soon. We will see. Thanks. :o)
I do not yet belong to a kit club. Thank you SO much for offering up as prizes, some of the GREATEST stuff!!! kweenbee_612@yahoo.com

Great quick and easy card! Let the machine do the work! I don't belong to a kit club, but there are a couple I would love to join....just don't have the funds to make the commitment right now.
ReplyDeleteLove the card! I'm like you, I am both an elegant creator and cutsie, depending on the project. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI love both but tend to lean more towards the cutesy side. Would love, love, love to win the Create a Critter 2 cartridge!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice quick and easy card! I don't belong to a kit club - I have so much scrapbooking stuff already that any kits would probably just pile up too :)
ReplyDeleteI love all the projects you post. This golf fathers day card is very nice. I don't belong to a kit club yet. Thank you for your blog!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card. I love that paper. I do not belong to any kit clubs.

Great Father's Day card! I'm not a fan of the cricut craft room...but I am too impatient to learn..and frustrated a bit with them and the sudden stop of making the gypsy and the imagine....grrr!! Anyway I do belong to a kit club...But it used to be tons of products...well worth the $25 but I did a little adding and comparing...last year some if not most kits had $65 worth of product the same months kits this year barely have what you pay for the membership. I think I can buy 5 sheets of card stock washy tape and a stamp set for $25 but SSS used to be good...wouldn't recommend! Thanks Joy for all the fun things you do!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute cartridge
ReplyDeleteyou are giving away.
I'd love to win it!

I used to belong to kit clubs but I found i was not happy with the selection in the kits. I prefer making my own choices. Thanks for the opportunity to win the cartridge.

Great card.
ReplyDeleteI love both cutesy and elegant cards! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Cute card looks really simple in CCR. Would try to make a few cuts while they are still free. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteLuria
Great father's day card! I have not tried CCR yet but would like to. I like elegant cards a lot, but cutesy cards are great for the kids. I belong to SEI and love it! Would love to win this cartridge, as it has been on my wish list for some time now.
ReplyDeleteI have two small grandchildren an would love to have this to go with their pictures and make things with them
ReplyDeleteHi there! I am a new follower who found your blog through pinterest. I will definitely be looking on your page for cricut ideas! I love mine! I am not a member of a kit club.
ReplyDeleteI am new to your web page. Love that there are so many cartridges that match stamp sets. Hoping to win,
ReplyDeleteNo to kit clubs. Love your card.
ReplyDeleteLove your card! No kit clubs here :(
ReplyDeleteAwesome card! So intricate for only taking less than 10 minutes to make. I don't belong to a kit club either. Thanks for the chance to win the Critter cartridge.
ReplyDeleteWhile I'm not a member of any kit club, I'd sure like to join one for stamps with coordinating dies. Your card is very inspiring....I'm heading to my craft studio now (an old bedroom transformed) to create a similar card. The Cricut Create A Critter 2 Cartridge has every critter you would need in a year to create hundreds, if not thousands of cards.

ReplyDeleteI am not a memeber of any club, I like that card, I need to start using craft room. Great Cart
ReplyDeleteI enjoy both. I do many styles and the variety keep crafting fresh and fun!
ReplyDeleteI love the critters from 1 and would love to get the critters from 2.....they are so cute...I use them all the time! I don't belong to any kit clubs, but I sure do love page layout kits!
ReplyDeleteNope, I don't belong to any club kits. I like your card!
ReplyDeleteI belong to the SEI kit club and really enjoy it. There are three kits you can sign up for - scrapbooking, cards & paper crafts. Of course, I subscribe to all 3 (LOL).
ReplyDeleteI love the Crate a cricut cartridge and everything you can make with it.
ReplyDeleteDiane L
Thanks for sharing. I love those Cricut card cuts.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great Father's Day card. I cut a couple of them while Craftroom had them available.
ReplyDeleteCute card, I would love to have a one on one tutorial on the cricut craft room!!
