Cooking with Cricut - Challenge #20 Time to Spring Forward

I have used a timepiece on one of the pages of my mini album so I decided this would be perferct for the Challenge this week on Cooking with Cricut. I have just finished this project up and I am going to give this to Matthew and Tabatha since they have just finished buiding their home and getting moved in. I cut the house out on my cricut with the home on the Sweethearts cartridge this was cut at 11".


The paper I used for the entire album was from Basic Grey the Mellow collection. I also used lots of Tim Holtz products (love those).


Pages 1-2 The flower is from Prima flower and all the diecuts are from Basic Grey mellow.


Pages 3-4
The tape measure ribbon & memo pin are Tim Holtz.


Pages 5-6

Pages 7-8

Pages 9-10


Pages 11-12



























More close up shots of the book and the embellishments I used.

Sorry for the pictures being mixed up - I took them all the same way but when I have downloaded them they are turned at different angles and I did not know how to correct.

This book was fun to make and I really liked using all the different items in it. I did alot of inking with distress inks and sanded alot on this book.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you have a great week.

Pink Paislee Layout

I made this layout for our local scrapbook store  Scrappers Delights Boutique in Dalton Georgia.   It was a different layout for me using all this very soft colors & girly embellishments but it was a fun project to work on.   I loved using the bling & flowers - This is from Pink Paislee the Parisian Anthology line you need to check this out.  I also used some of the glimmer mist chalk and it worked really well.  The blue flowers were just plain flowers that I have had for awhile and I embossed these with the blue glitter - This worked out really well.  I will have to use this again in the future it really changed the look of the layout.
This layout could be used for a wedding or prom.  My son is going to his JR SR prom coming up in April.  I think this will be perfect for that.  (I guess his date should wear turquoise  lol).

Well it is a start to a busy Saturday - Going to Brandons first golf match of the season.
Have a great day!
Thanks for stopping by.

Cooking with Cricut - Challenge #15 Shadow

I have another layout that I have made for Matthews album.  I am working on some of the pictures I have of Matthew and Tabatha from last year after they were engaged.  I used the Accents Essential cartridge on this layout for the frame and journaling.
They are such a cute couple.  I love them both so much. It is fun to get these pages together.

Cooking with Cricut - Challenge #14 - Birthdays

I finally got my scrapbook layout made for this challenge.  I love the new cricut cartridge that my mom got me for Christmas "Birthday Bash" it has lots of cool cuts.  This will be a cartridge I know I will use alot.
I used one of my Peachy Keen face stamps on the cake.  Peachy Keen stamps are really cute. I need to get me some more of the new ones they have come out with.  They are great to use with your cricut cuts.



Thanks for this great challenge. I am looking forward to the next one.
