I have been wanting to vinyl my kitchen wall with this phrase for a year now and never found the right font I wanted. One day I was checking the SOS for something else and found it! I was so excited and it was perfect. <br />

The frames are painted antique white to match my other cabinets, and then I used the same brown tint gloss to give a more distressed - shabby chic look. My cabinets have the same feel to them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The main frame is supposed to be crooked and the silly photos are supposed to symbolize how 'imperfect' our family is and how true this phrase is in our family.</div>

Happy Monday everyone! Today I am blessed to be a Guest Designer for my friend Jessica with Pinque Peacock. She has a wonderful blog and a great shop you can find all homemade flowers, beaded pins, fabric buttons and so much more. You really need to stop in and check her out. She is affordable and her products are not like anyone else's.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://pinquepeacock.blogspot.com/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img 200="" alt=" photo ppdesignblog_zps620ee9ba.jpg" border="0" src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t72/strgazrblueyes22477/Pinque%20Peacock/PPDesignBlog_zps620ee9ba.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<br />
When I was shopping around at her store I saw these puppy paw fabric buttons and I knew I wanted to get them for a birthday card I was going to be making for a birthday. <br />
I chose to get the buttons with a flat back because I knew I wanted to out it on a card. My inspiration for the card came from my cousin's volunteer service to Lab's and from a card I saw on Pinterest.<br />
<br />
The Lab's are from the Pet Shop Cricut Cartridge, the Base paper is from Imaginisce, and the doggy paw paper is from We R Memory Keepers-Friends Furever. I did use my Cuttlebug to emboss the blue Tim Holtz paper for a more rugged look. I stamped the sentiment with Robyn's, My Pink Stamper's - Biggie Puns. I actually decided to not use the whole verse on the stamp, so I just inked the portions I needed for the card. I did use CTMH's Burlap ribbon for added texture and Tim Holtz's vintage ink for distressing the sides, my die cut Lab's and for the sentiment stamping.<br />

Hey there ladies and gents, How are all of you? Have you missed me? lol</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am finally getting back into the swing of crafting again. I feel I have been overwhelmed</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
with life lately and not been able to craft. Ever feel that way? I bet all or most of you have....</div>

I have a new toy to play with these days too! Not only do I now craft with my Cricut, but now, the Silhouette Cameo. They are both amazing!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I wanted to share a BAP tackle box version I made for me nephew back in June.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Since the 'new Prince" was born yesterday I thought sharing a 'birthday' card was fitting.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The card is a 3D card. And if you are interested in the purchasing the card SVG here is the link.</div>

Today I wanted to share a couple cards I have made using the Silhouette Cameo. Man, I love this machine! The first two cards are the tri-fold step card. This was my first time making one, (well, actually two). They are really cool and easy to make. My cousins, who happen to be brother and sister, graduated on the exact same day from High School and College. Can you believe that?! What are the chances of that happening. Did I mention they live in Cali and my cousin attended University of Notre Dame in Indiana. Enough about my family, here are the cards. <br />

<br />
Welcome everyone! <br />
<br />
Sorry to post so late in the day, I feel like I have an<u> eight year old</u> <u>birthday hangover</u>. LOL. Today is my oldest daughter's birthday and as it happened it was also to the weekend that my husband's family came out for their quarterly visit. Needless to say, it has been quite busy.<br />
<br />
Today, I get to post for my dear design team <a href="http://www.ourkreativekarma.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Our Kreative Karma</a>. Our theme this month is Fun, Sunshine and Smiles. I went into this month thinking I would use my day to showcase a birthday card for my daughter with mermaids. But then I went to a scrapbooking retreat last weekend and had so much fun scrapbooking my son's 5th birthday filled with superhero's. :)<br />
<br />
I hope you enjoy the layouts. <br />

I found this photo of my mom and daughter from a couple years ago. We had spent the day at Disney's Magic Kingdom and were on the boat back to our hotel. I found it endearing that my daughter was in MY mother's arms so tired from all the fun. Of course, I had to snap a photo or two. I just wanted to remember this moment.</span></span></span></div>

I wanted the photos and simplicity to be the focus. I still need to put a title and my journaling on the page. I was having trouble coming up with a title but I think I might go with<strong><em> "Happiness is...being with you"</em></strong>. I am going to cut this title out with the Twilight blue paper that </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
matches this Chantilly set. I will make sure to update this post later tomorrow after I cut out the title.</div>

I loved the bright and fun look for this paper. Of course, my first thought was all for my boys, but then Jen asked me to join her Blog Hop for this paper packet, and I wanted to try and make a card without going the 'boy route' to show the diversity of these papers.<br />
<br />
Here are my two cards that I made. One was a gathering project I made for a Craft Fair a couple weeks ago, and the other card was made as a 'thank you' for a friend.<br />

All paper if from the CTMH Later Sk8ter paper packet. The stamp sets I used were Puns Of Praise (love this stamp set!!!), the Later Sk8ter stamp set and bling that come with the Workshop on the GO kit, Outdoor Demin ink, and the SEWeasy floss of white and gray. </div>

I could not find my CTMH twine, that I really wanted to use. </div>

I love when it is my day to post for this awesome team. :)<br />
<br />
How weird is this week with Mardi Gras, Ash Wednesday and Valentines' Day all falling within the same week?! <br />
<br />
This weekend I received my box of goodies from Close To My Heart for my first craft fair this weekend. (yikes!) And I could not wait to play with one of the new stamp sets called Under the Sea. I saw this crab and thought it would be so cute to use it as a fun and easy card for Valentine's day.<br />
<br />
The paper is from K&C Company, Pinch of Love and frame stamp are from CTMH, the sentiment on the inside of the card (which I just realized I forgot to take a picture of...) is from K. Andrews Designs. I know this is a quick post but I hope you enjoy the cuteness. Feel free to email or post any questions or comments you might have.<br />
<br />
Hugs everyone!<br />

Welcome to my first monthly post with my new design team, Our Kreative Karma! Yahoo!! I am so happy to be back with fantastic and talented group of girls. If you stopped over from our new blog site <a href="http://www.ourkreativekarma.blogspot.com/">www.ourkreativekarma.blogspot.com</a>, welcome and if not, make sure you check out our new blog and all my crafty sisters.<br />
<br />
Here is my project for today. I wanted to finish scrapbooking my fall layout of my first field trip to the Orchard with my son. We had an incredible time, and got some great pictures.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/--kdt-5zkJGQ/UPiuiPbKY7I/AAAAAAAAJk8/QCaFQhjxZdk/s1600-h/Kackle%252520Orchards%25255B2%25255D.jpg"><img alt="Kackle Orchards" border="0" height="221" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-Jb9-zABKTZQ/UPiuiWzJHpI/AAAAAAAAJlE/8fJPcNsTFi4/Kackle%252520Orchards_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border: 0px currentColor; display: inline; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Kackle Orchards" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
I am sorry the pictures are blurry, but I am having trouble with blogger and my photos.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-I-5RfoyhK_8/UPiujdOjE-I/AAAAAAAAJlM/KkNB_l-5YZk/s1600-h/Kackle%252520Orchards2%25255B2%25255D.jpg"><img alt="Kackle Orchards2" border="0" height="400" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-QhqN6rPx-bg/UPiuj12CGdI/AAAAAAAAJlU/kquH7QyTylU/Kackle%252520Orchards2_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border: 0px currentColor; display: inline; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Kackle Orchards2" width="400" /></a><br />

<br />
For my layout, I used paper from Recollections Fall and Night packet, a couple of the stickers are from Jolee's Boutique. I also used Provo Craft's Cricut cartridges Happily Ever After for the pumpkin and vines, and the Cricut Lite Yee-Haw for my "Tracker Crossing" sign. And I could not let my layout go without any stickles and bling. :)<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by. If you have any questions feel free to ask. And if I can fix my pictures today, I will stop back in and correct them. <br />
<br />
Have a blessed weekend. See you soon. And don't forget to check back in with <a href="http://www.ourkreativekarma.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Our Kreative Karma</a> every day to see a new designer and a new theme each month.<br />

Here is a quick thank you card using the Imagine and My Creative Time stamps. </div>

I sent it to my aunt who helped me repaint and decorate my kitchen. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<strong>Here is one more easy, but manly card I made for my brother who </strong><br />

<strong>Pink By Design stamp for the sentiment.</strong><br />

I know there are many in this Hop so I wanted to make this short and also because I am so tired after hosting a party for my Grandma tonight. It was wonderful to see her and as it turned out the kids put a crown on her head and she wore it all night. So, the crown on my frog fit perfectly!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Good Morning Everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I am participating in a unique Blog Hop put together by <a href="http://shelley-scrapbookingforfun.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Shelley</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our Blog Hop today is All About Me. And let me tell you it was not easy trying to scrapbook</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
me! I am so used to scrapbooking or making cards for others that to try and focus on myself</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
was difficult. I am sure throughout this blog hop you will see many of us crafting sisters feeling </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the same way. :) Don't you?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Are you ready to see my project? Great! But first make sure you stopped at <a href="http://nadjarobbins.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Nadja</a>'s blog to first. We would not want you to miss a stop in this hop. :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided to put together a mini album made of chip board. I thought once this hop was over</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would keep it by my crafting table to remind me of my favorite things and things that inspire me.</div>

to plan out trip to Haiti with our church. Some people thought we were crazy, especially leaving our 'not even one year old' little girl at home. But we were so confident in God and His word that I was comfortable doing this. So, ever since then, Haiti has always had a soft spot in my heart.</td></tr>

<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Happy Wednesday ya'll!!</strong></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Welcome to my project for <a href="http://www.mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">My Cricut Craft Room's Design Team</a>. My challenge for using gel pens or markers came at the right time. I just started a new Bible Study and our handouts come with three holes punched in our papers. So, being the 'wanna be' organized person that I am, I decided a three ring binder was the way to go.... Make that a 'Cricut' decorated three ring binder.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is a photo of my completed binder. I love the way it turned out! </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YPZXtkSobwE/UIXVws9-MfI/AAAAAAAAJZo/UQ-744PTTSc/s1600/img_20121021_135434.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YPZXtkSobwE/UIXVws9-MfI/AAAAAAAAJZo/UQ-744PTTSc/s320/img_20121021_135434.jpg" width="280" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I started out cutting down my Creative Memories Christian paper to fit the binder, front and back. I used the New Testament cartridge for my scripture. I used my Cri-Kits black gel pen instead of my cutting blade to write out the above scripture verse at 6", you will find the verse on page 62 of the New Testament handbook. The letters are colored in with my Prisma watercolored pencils and I inked the white cardstock with Tim Holtz's grape, adn old paper distressed inks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_kp9w2Rr9Y4/UIhZhgxhexI/AAAAAAAAJaY/uu1GVEiFfXY/s1600/img_20121021_135426.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_kp9w2Rr9Y4/UIhZhgxhexI/AAAAAAAAJaY/uu1GVEiFfXY/s320/img_20121021_135426.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sz2w5qaMRto/UIhZnlUyMiI/AAAAAAAAJag/T27YHGqhd6Q/s1600/img_20121021_135454.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sz2w5qaMRto/UIhZnlUyMiI/AAAAAAAAJag/T27YHGqhd6Q/s320/img_20121021_135454.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You will find this cross on the New Testament cartridge, also. It is on page 59. Again, I used the black gel pen to print out a border for the cross and then cut it out at 5". I used white cardstock so I could color in the cross outline with my Prisma Pencil, then outlined the areas I left white with my crystal colored Stickles.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6OPuOKl-i6M/UIhcRNeMD5I/AAAAAAAAJa8/ArbBR5P4KYQ/s1600/img_20121021_135446.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6OPuOKl-i6M/UIhcRNeMD5I/AAAAAAAAJa8/ArbBR5P4KYQ/s320/img_20121021_135446.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lacy Labels was used to cut out my label for "BSF", Bible Study Fellowship. I liked the shape of the label and the swirl for the one labeled "family". I cut these out at 2". I cut out the word 'family' and kept the swirl. Then I cut out the letters "BSF" with my Expression 2, using the pre-installed Cricut Alphabet cartridge. To match my yellow colors, I also, colored my letters using the Prisma pencils and then inked the sides. I also embossed the label with my Cuttlebug, added some stickles and a sheer ribbon.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FN4b4X8yXNE/UIhegZt5urI/AAAAAAAAJbE/MwKJe1vnvGY/s1600/img_20121021_135401.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FN4b4X8yXNE/UIhegZt5urI/AAAAAAAAJbE/MwKJe1vnvGY/s320/img_20121021_135401.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lastly, I used my Cricut Imagine with the printable vinyl. Using the Storybook and Imagine Hopscotch cartridges, I printed out the word "Genesis" and a filled in shadow frame. Sorry, I forget what page. Which I adhered to the side of my binder.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There are three special projects I have for you today. So, let's get started.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<strong> </strong></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Project #1 - Inspired Hear tCartridge. I made two cards using this cartride. One is a sympathy card and the other is a Thank you card. The Cross's are cut out at 4" (blue) and 3" (purple). I inked them both using Tim Holtz's Tumbled Glass and Concord Grape. I embossed each with my Cuttlebug using the embossing folders, Poka Dots and Textile. The Cross's are also pop dotted.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xSnV4VD1SrA/UHDkOjHdh-I/AAAAAAAAJXk/Nln7qejMqBo/s1600/IMG_20121006_211050.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xSnV4VD1SrA/UHDkOjHdh-I/AAAAAAAAJXk/Nln7qejMqBo/s320/IMG_20121006_211050.jpg" width="236" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EBbuPeqd0Ik/UHDkLrWHV6I/AAAAAAAAJXc/hlWyWKypfdI/s1600/IMG_20121006_211034.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EBbuPeqd0Ik/UHDkLrWHV6I/AAAAAAAAJXc/hlWyWKypfdI/s320/IMG_20121006_211034.jpg" width="236" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<strong>Project #2</strong> -Imagine Blast Off Cartridge was used to make this HUGE map of the United States. My husband travels and we use this to help the children see where he is and how far away he is from home. When I used my Imagine Blast Off cartrige for this project, I actually used the cartridge in my E2. I cut the letters using Blast Off, I think they are approx 2". Everyday Paper Dolls was used for the road, the truck (like daddy's work truck) came from New Arrival, and the ladder that I laid on top the truck, like my husband has, was cut from the Handy Many Lite Cartridge. Lastly, the sign that says "home" is from Pooh and Friends.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kbV2uqK1SbY/UHDloS26kiI/AAAAAAAAJYU/37403GNK4qE/s1600/IMG_20120923_181649.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="249" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kbV2uqK1SbY/UHDloS26kiI/AAAAAAAAJYU/37403GNK4qE/s320/IMG_20120923_181649.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M-WBw5d-8hc/UHDkY3qetuI/AAAAAAAAJYE/pWqB6fQQYEw/s1600/IMG_20121006_214556.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M-WBw5d-8hc/UHDkY3qetuI/AAAAAAAAJYE/pWqB6fQQYEw/s320/IMG_20121006_214556.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<strong>Project #3</strong> - New Arrival , Boys will Be Boys, Create a Critter, Princess Dreams Come True were all used in my next project. I made a baby card for my Sister in Law that just had her second son. I wanted to make it 'different' from all the normal baby cards. I think I succeeded. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The monster truck is cut at 2" from the Boys will Be Boys cartridge, I embossed the top half of the truck with my Cuttlebug, then inked it with silver and heat embossed for a metal shinning coating. Glossy Accents were used to give a shine to the window and the head lights.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The 'dirt' are just strips of ripped paper that I inked using the Tim Holtz Vintage Photo stamp color.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"It's a Boy" is cut at 1" and is from New Arrival. The cloud's and grass are cut at 1.5" from Create a Critter and inked. The stones are approximately .50" to .75" and are from the Princess Dreams Come True. The baby is cut at 2.5" from the New Arrival cartrige also. I did cut him from the blackout feature and flip him on my E2. Since, I used the blackout feature on this cartridge I was able to use one of my new Peachy Keen Stamp called Fun Kiddie Face stamps</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<strong>Happy National Teacher's Day!</strong></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For my themed project today, I decided on using my son's first day of school pictures. This year he started Developmental Kindergarten or Young 5's, deepending on how you know it. This is also the first year he is able to take the bus with his older sister. I still need to add a another LO or two for all the pictures but this is the first page. I think I went a little picture happy on the first day of school. Yikes!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-N5g7QlJiM8Q/UGso2IXjaGI/AAAAAAAAJWA/-KhmT6PnHFg/s1600/IMG_4527.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-N5g7QlJiM8Q/UGso2IXjaGI/AAAAAAAAJWA/-KhmT6PnHFg/s400/IMG_4527.JPG" width="395" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I started out using a 12x12 paper by DCWV- The Glitter Stack. The photos are matted on Creative Memories paper with Chocolate stickles added for embellishments. My school bus was made from the Cricut Cartridge Locker Talk and cut at 5". The children and bus driver are cut from Everyday Paper Dolls at 2". I did cut their whole bodies, then cut off from the neck down. I also only had white paper so I used one of my Prismacolor markers to give the faces some color. I used my Gypsy to hide their premade faces. Then I stamp new faces using my Peachy Keen Everyday Character and Simple Simons face stamps. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9h1cG7fAHOU/UG7a1CaOkkI/AAAAAAAAJWo/M6mqKtEsyGA/s1600/IMG_20121005_082712-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="228" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9h1cG7fAHOU/UG7a1CaOkkI/AAAAAAAAJWo/M6mqKtEsyGA/s400/IMG_20121005_082712-1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Bus Stop sign is cut at 4", also from the Locker Talk cartridge on page 34. I embossed the sign with my Cuttlebug and the Forest Branched embossing folder. I then used the Tim Holtz destressing ink to help enhance the sign. "Bus Stop" letters are Creative Memories stickers I had on had and then then to help them match more I used Apple Green Smootch Paints to color them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-b-CK_1D6ULA/UG7a6u9XIbI/AAAAAAAAJW4/ttujydiDrO4/s1600/IMG_20121005_083001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-b-CK_1D6ULA/UG7a6u9XIbI/AAAAAAAAJW4/ttujydiDrO4/s400/IMG_20121005_083001.jpg" width="221" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lastly, my 'first day of school' sign is cut at 3" and is also from Locker Talk.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added stickles to the inside cuts of the letters. My apple has chocolate stickes for the steam and again, I used the Lime Green Smootch paint for the little leaf that is attached.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Hey everyone, </span><br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Today is <strong>Would You
Ever Guess Wednesday</strong> at <a href="http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #7629d4;">My Cricut Craft Room</span></a>. The theme for today was to create
a</span> <span style="font-size: medium;">project in black in white with some pink
for Breast Cancer Awareness month and to use any feature key with our cartridges. The black and white is for National Shamu
Day. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">My project for today is an Anniversary card for my best friend and her husband. I used only black and white paper and the Sweethearts Cartridge. I chose the Card feature on page 53, the Tandum bicycle. My best friend and her husband love to bike ride, so I thought this would be cute for them. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I cut the card out with Bazzill black card stock at fit to page, then layered the inside with a plain white cardstock and a behind the hearts and bike I placed a black and white printed paper. I did highlight the edges of the bike with Pink ink. I also added some pearls to parts of the bike for some fancy bling.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4gZBrp6VdIg/UGIvsdzQhkI/AAAAAAAAJUY/zW9pPIKnc7w/s1600/IMG_4498.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="355" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4gZBrp6VdIg/UGIvsdzQhkI/AAAAAAAAJUY/zW9pPIKnc7w/s400/IMG_4498.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The hearts are filled in with Crystal stickles and Happy Anniversary is from page 70. It is cut out at 1.5 and inked in pink, in honor of Breast Cancer awareness. And I wrapped a white ribbon with silver edging around the card.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--wjmtJRmb1M/UGIvvXMrIOI/AAAAAAAAJUg/UrqK8c9_muk/s1600/IMG_20120925_154120.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--wjmtJRmb1M/UGIvvXMrIOI/AAAAAAAAJUg/UrqK8c9_muk/s400/IMG_20120925_154120.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The inside of the card says "<u>Congratulation's on Riding in Tandum for Eleven Years".</u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope you enjoyed this black and white feature challenge. Don't forget to check out my other design team sisters and their ideas using black and white and the other features on our Cricut Cartridges. You never know what might inspire you. :)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;"><strong>Happy International Chore Day!!</strong></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For our projects today, the Design Team was asked to make something for someone's lunch. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
How sweet and fun is that idea?!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All along I had this cute 3x3 card I was going to make and put in my</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
children's lunches using the new Create a Critter 2 cartridge. But when I went to make the cards, I came across the <u>My Community Cricut Cartridge</u>. Became sidetracked, and started reviewing it again, just for fun, or so I thought ..... Can you guess were this is going.... Yep, I <strong>totally</strong> changed my project at the last minute. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Below is my final Lunch Time Puzzle project.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S29u1P_b3nU/UFHpoPRlQ_I/AAAAAAAAJTs/KRhcGHhW5v0/s1600/Lunch+Time+Puzzle.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S29u1P_b3nU/UFHpoPRlQ_I/AAAAAAAAJTs/KRhcGHhW5v0/s400/Lunch+Time+Puzzle.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I did not want to use the whole puzzle that is available, so I cut the four pieces that would fit together. I started out first cutting a cereal box at fit to page and then covered them in Colorbok Glitter paper, and inking the the sides with Tim Holtz's VictorianVelvet. Using the <u>Locker Talk Cricut Cartridge</u> I cut out '2nd grade' at 2" and added some green stickles glitter. The Lunch Time die cut is cut from page 11 from the <u>My Community Cricut Cartridge</u> at 1.75" with some stickles for an added sparkle. Lastly, I used the <u>Hannah Montana Cartridge</u> to cut out the guitar at 1", added some pink stickles and the 'You Rock" sentiment from Pink By Design, Enjoy the Journey stamp set.</div>

Today I have the awesome priviledge of being a guest designer for Jenny at <a href="http://www.crazyaboutcricut.blogspot.com/"><strong>www.crazyaboutcricut.blogspot.com</strong></a> .</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Toda,y Crazy About Cricut is called<strong><u> Mickey and Friends Monday</u></strong>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
How perfect is this theme for me?! Especially, since I am in the process of making<u> two</u> Disney scrapbooks. One for me and one for my mom, who does not scrapbook or craft.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The project I made is actually in the <strong><u>Pooh and Friends Cricut Cartridge</u></strong> handbook.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have never (I repeat Never!) made any of the projects that Provo Craft has put in their books. Mainly, because once I get the cartridge I am so exicted that I just want to start creating. Well, this weekend I saw this card and thought it was so stinkin' cute, I just had to try it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I love how it turned out!</div>

My project today is a page out of an album for my Grandma, my children's Great Grandma. One day I decided I would make her an album with the children's baby pictures inside and how they have grown years. Grandma is 90 years old, so to be 91 in a couple months, and she lives in Wisconsin. So, we do not get to see her very often. Sometimes, making her things makes me feel better. Calling her has gotten harder, as dementia is setting in and she never remembers that I call. It has been really hard adjusting to the 'new' Grandma'. But I love her and that's all that counts! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is the fun little page that the children helped me with.... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The title is "Hook Line and Sinker" Noah, one of my little ones, has been into fishing lately. And Grandma used to fish all the time. She even taught me how to skin a fish. hahaha! My husband doesn't belive me. So, the title was to tie in the February-Valentine's Day and fishing theme. Not to mention that my son is a heartbreaker. You will be 'hooked, line and sinker'. Get it?! :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The pages are 9x9. The fish are from the Animal Kingdom Cricut Cartridge and the font is from the Tear Drop Cricut Cartridge. I was so happy to use some oldies but some goodies. :) I am sorry that I do not have the demensions for my die cuts, but I had three children helping me and I became sidetracked to say the least. Sorry again!</div>

<strong>150 Dolche' Word Flash Cards all made with my Cricut!</strong></div>
The font is from <strong>Simply Sweet Cartridge</strong> and the tag is from the <strong>Sweet Treats Cartridge</strong>. My daughter came home with a list of 150 words she needs to learn before the end of the school year. So, to make it more fun for her, I broke out the Cricut and started cutting tags and words. To simplify the process I used cardstock from Recollections that already has the adhesive on it. So, it consisted of cutting and then just adhering the letters to make the words. My daughter loved it and bring it on the bus with her to practice.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
My next project is a card for my husband using the <strong>Handy Man Lite Cartridge</strong>. When this Lite cartridge came out I knew I just 'had' to have it. (Don't we all say that...Hahaha!) My husband is all into tools, and making a 'man cave'. He also travels every week and thought it would be nice to make a card for him to find in his suitcase from the kids and I.<br />

</span><span lang="">The card is a standard A2 size. The tape measure die cut measures at approximately 4". <br />
I also distressed the look of it with black ink to make it look more 'used'. I found the tools that form the word 'DAD' at Michaels. I just love them and want to try using my Gypsy and this cartridge to make my own. If it works maybe you'll see it on next month's blog hop. I also used the perfect stamp by Pink By Design, the Tool Time set for the inside.
Isn't it perfect?!<br />

<br />
My 12x12 layout started out with My Minds Eye, Deena's Penny Lane Specialty Glitter paper. I matted two of my photo with the same glitter cardstock and then a purple from my stock. I also used the Tim Holtz Distressing Ink, Dusty Grape to help the matting and photos stand out. <strong> Mickey and Friends Cricut cartridge</strong> was used to make Minnie on both pages. She is cut out at 4.5 inches and embellished with stickles. I used Prima flowers, Recollections Mulberry flowers, some pearl like brad and buttons from my stash of goodies to embellish the pages.<br />
<br />
Here are some close up pictures of my pages and my Minnie Cricut Cuts.<br />

Happy Friday and Labor Day weekend! I am so excited to share with you my character layout for the design team with My Cricut Craft Room. I purposely picked this theme, since I knew I wanted to scrapbook my Winnie the Pooh pictures from Disney World a couple years ago. What a fantastic time we had! Just my mom, my daughter and me; all there celebrating my mom's birthday and my daughter's first time visiting. It really is a magical place!</div>

This is the finished layout using only two Cricut Cartridges. Pooh and Friends Cartridge and the Pooh Font Cartridge. I just love this fun kid like font. I use it all the time.</div>

Let's get started with my receipe...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The layout is a 12x12 using We R Memory Keepers Designer Paper, Grandma's Kitchen. The chipboard for 'Winnie & Tigger " come from this collection as well. But I did not have enough chipboard for my entire title so I cut the rest of my words using the Pooh Font cartridge with paper from the same stack and then outlined in stickles to match the chipboard. I place half circles on both sides under the pictures and a 1" strip on top and bottom. Winnie the Pooh is cut at approximately 4" and Tigger is cut at at approximatey the same size. They are both cut from the Pooh and Friends Cricut Cartridge. I just love this cut of Tigger looking over whatever you place him on. For me it was the border. I wanted him looking over the top picture orginally but he hung over to far for my taste. The vellum saying is from Creative Memories Disney stack I found a year ago at a crop. And the extra embellishements are from the We R Memory Keepers pack and held in place with some medium size gold brads.</div>
