Welcome to the "Cabin Fever" Getting Cricky Blog Hop!!

We're so happy you could join us for this month's Getting Cricky Design Team Blog Hop!!  We have an EXTRA SPECIAL hop for you this month -- All week long, the Design Team has been featuring many of Kristal's stamp sets as well as an array of Cricut Cartridges, SVG cuts, and more in anticipation of the hop...  If you've missed out on any of the week, be sure to check out our previous posts for MORE THAN 100 CREATIVE IDEAS and PROJECTS as well as giveaways, promotions, tips, and tutorials!!

If you've hopped along from Patti then you are in the right place!! If you are just joining me from your dashboard, or reading this via email, please be sure to CLICK HERE to start at the beginning with Kristal's blog (you'll want to catch up on all the FUN!!)...

Each of Kristal's stamp sets benefit charity. At least $1 per stamp set goes to benefit the charity noted on the stamp set package. Kristal is donating to the following charities: Cancer Angels, Storefront Shelter for Homeless Children, Intrepid & Fallen Heroes, E. Glaser Pediatric AIDS  Foundation, Doorways Shelter for Women & Children (Domestic Violence), Wayside House for Women, Camp Good Days & Special Times, Adopt a Classroom, and Autism Research Institute. Kristal will donate $1 for every stamp set sold, retail or wholesale to the charity noted; and over time believes this will add up to some wonderful miracles for these special people. So you can feel good that each time you purchase a K Andrew Designs art stamp set, someone around the country is receiving some good help!

K Andrew's stamps are all made and assembled here in the USA, which is very important to Kristal. This ensures all product materials are safe and that jobs are being provided and maintained here in America.  You can learn even more about Kristal's stamps (and pick some up for yourself) by visiting her online store: K Andrew Designs:






Kristal's stamp sets are perfect for cards, layouts, and so much more...

Crafty Friends

For my Cabin Fever project I have made a frosted ivy bowl. I had so much fun making this project it was a tad messy but very fun :)

For this project I took a medium ivy bowl that I got at the craft store and cut out some 1" circles using a punch on some vinyl and placed them around the bowl making sure there were no air bubbles for the etch to get under. Then I took Etching cream and painted it all over the bowl and let it set for a minute and then I rinsed it off and peeled off my vinyl circles...
Then I added some cool ribbon from my stash and added a Prima rose that I made (thanks to http://scrappinforkenzie.blogspot.com/2012/02/prima-mini-rose-tutorial.html ) :)
Then I added a tag stamped with K Andrew's stamp set Crafty Friends.



So now that I showed you my project I have to tell you about an awesome deal!!!
