My Aunts bday card

This is a card I made for my Aunt. I used Plantin Schoolbook to cut the flower. Inked around the edges. Added a gromet for added texted and embelishment. (I dont like how it puckered) Very simple card to make.

Thank You card

Here is a Thank You card I made for some very dear friends of ours. The stamped images are from Stampin Up.

Parents Anniversary Card

It is my parents 42nd Anniversary. They really are the perfect pair !! I made this card using the Sweethearts cart. for all cuts. Added the hearts, dots, and snowflake stamps by Stamping by Judith.

Inside view

I used Sweethearts cart. for the saying. Added a few heart brads and stamped images and called it done.

Cupcake card

This is a card I made for my niece. I used Doodlecharms cartridge for the cupcake. I used clear stamps with ink in her favorite colors. Added a piece of ribbon to accent and pop dots for dimension. I hope she likes it. It was very simple to make. Sorry this picture is too small. I am using photobucket and it is coming out either too small or too large. :-(

I made a matching envelope using a envelope template I got at the Great American Scrapbook Convention I attended this year. I dont remember who it is made by. It really comes in handy when you want to make a matching envelope.

I used pop dots to give dimension.

Horsin Around

Here is a layout of me training my new colt. I think it looks a little bland. I just didn't know what colors to use. It was for a weekly challenge on the cricut forum. I used Plantin Schoolbook, Old West, and Paperdoll Dress Up.

Wedding Double Page Layout

The subject is my niece's wedding. The colors of the wedding was black, white, and red. It was such a beautiful wedding. The cartridges I used was Sweethearts and Home Decor.

Snow Day

I love playing in the snow ! I made this layout using Joys of the Season for the mittens and snowflakes. I used Cuttin Up for the font.

Fall 2008

I love doing fall scenes. My dog is my favorite model. She know when I have a camera she needs to be looking pretty !! LOL I used Plantin Schoolbook for the title. I used Home Decor for the scalloped circle. I cheated and used the paperdoll scarecrow and corn that I received from a Paperdoll Swap I was in on the Cricut forum. (Those are really fun to join) Hope you enjoy.

Dixie Stampede

Here is a layout I did of a show in Branson MO. It is called Dixie Stampede. It was so much fun. It is about the Civil War(the Yankee against the Rebels). Anyway I needed to do a two page layout because the pictures were 5X7's I used Wild West Cart. for the title and horses. I cut out the mat and glued down three sides to make the pocket. I had so much memorabilia that I wanted to include that I just had to have a pocket ! LOL

Swaps

Here is the mailbox and goodies I received from Erica. She did a great job. She was so generous! Thank you, Erica!!

Mailbox Swap

I am addicted to doing swaps on the Cricut forum. Here is a altered mailbox for a swap. You had to alter a mailbox in your partners favorite colors and fill it with goodies. Here is picture of the mailbox with all the goodies I filled it with.

Front View

The "E" stands for her first name. I used a negative chipboard and painted it with a black magic marker.

Side View

Here is the side view. I painted the mailbox white. I used a very tacky double sided permanent tape on the paper to make it stick to the mail box. I stressed over how to get behind the flag part. I found instructions on youtube. All you do is use a small circle punch where the flag will be, then cut a slit and slide it under the flag. Very simple!! I just tied fibers around the base of the flag.

My Pink Cricut !!

Here is the newest addition to my scrapbook room. My new Pink Cricut!!! I have wanted one since they came out. I finally caught it on sale at Michael's. I love it!!

Leash keeper

Here is something I made to hang my dogs leash and coat on. I made it using a chipboard letter I purchased at Michaels. Applied paper, name, and flower with a decoupage medium. I nailed the little knobs on. I used Cricut Plantin Schoolbook cartridge.

Best Friends

This is a page I did for my son's scrapbook. It is of him and his best friend since 1st grade! They are now 19 and 21. Oh how the years go by.

Valentine Day Frame

I made this for my husband for Valentines Day. I bought the wooden frame and dimensional stickers at Michaels. He loved it!

1st chip board book

This weekend was a wonderful weekend! We got 6 inches of snow. I LOVE snow!! Anyway we played and played in snow. After all was said and done I decided that I would attempt this little book. I have been trying to get myself motivated to do one. I was worried about cutting the paper to fit the book. Guess what....it was easy!! I trimmed my coordinating paper and adhered to the book. I used A Childs Year for the scalloped mats and journaling mats cut at 4 inches. I used Alphalicous for the letters. Buttons and a wired butterfly I have been waiting to use for the front cover. I hope you like it.

Address Book Swap

Sorry I have posted anything in a while. It has been hectic with the holidays and stuff. Maybe now I can get back into full swing. This is a project I have been working on from the Cricut forum. It is an address book swap. I love signing up for these swaps. Not only are they fun, but you learn from other's creations. I used zebra paper and hot pink glitter paper for the embellishments. I used Wild West cartridge for the font. I used Doodlecharm cartridge for the flowers and dragonflies. I used the George & Basic shapes cartridge for the tag. Thank you for taking a look.
