Throwback Thursday Challenge!!


Hello Everyone!

I am on a challenge kick lately so please bare with me! I just can't get enough of these oh so fun challenges! For this submission, I headed over to Emma's (My Creative Time with Emma) blog which is www.creativetimeforme.com. Every Thursday, Emma hosts a challenge that she calls "Throwback Thursdays" which inspires us to use older cricut cartridges or any cricut cartridges that we own to make super fun crafty projects. Emma's blog is one of my favorite blogs to follow. She is so talented and helpful. I really think you should check it out if you haven't been there already. With all that said, I would like to share with you my submission for this week's "Throwback Thursday" challenge. This week we were given instructions to use a "Kid Friendly" cartridge, such as any "Disney" , "Create a Critter", "Nursery Tales", "A Child's Year" etc.......
***MUST BE A "Kid Friendly" THEME project of YOUR choice!!! and submit it by November 16, 2011. I chose to make a scrapbook layout of my niece from our vacation last July. I used The "Playtime" Cricut lite cartridge that I received with my Cricut expression as well as the "Classic Cricut Font" cartridge to make this layout. It is a fun colorful layout. I had fun making it. I really enjoy making scrapbook layouts and sharing them with friends and family so this was the perfect choice of project to make to share with you. I hope you enjoy this layout and that you gain some inspiration from this project! I also hope you play along with this challenge because it has been a lot of fun!

A Scrapbook Layout and Christmas cards






Hello Everyone!

I hope all is well!
I have a lot to share with you today. It has been a great weekend for creating. I found myself with lots of time to spend in my craft room and that always makes me happy. I hope all of you get to spend some time creating this weekend too!
Yesterday, I finished my 2nd Christmas Scrapbook layout of 2011. I love how it turned out! I used 3 Cricut Cartridges to make this layout. The cartridges I used are "Jolly Holidays", "Classic Cricut Font", and "Christmas" (It came w/the Gypsy). I plan to put pics of our Christmas tree on this page. And Today, I made my 1st 2 Christmas cards of the season. The tree came from the "Jolly Holidays" cartridge. The stamps came from the dollar bin at Michaels. I know it is not even Thanksgiving yet, but I am in the mood for Christmas. I hope this post gives you some inspiration and ideas for your holiday crafting. Remember it is never to early to get your holiday crafting done.

Have a wonderful evening!

Happy crafting !

My 1st Christmas Layout of 2011!


Hello Everyone!

I hope you all are having a wonderful Saturday and more importantly I hope you have had some time to create today. Today, I made this super fun Christmas layout and I wanted to share it with you! I am trying to get a jump start on my Christmas layouts/cards this year. So far so good! I used the "Jolly Holidays" Cricut Cartridge and the DCWV "Christmas Combo" Paper Stack from 2010 to make this layout. I was given the "Jolly Holidays" cartridge as a gift last year for Christmas and I finally get to use it! I really like it. It is one of my favorite Cricut Cartridges so far. I hope this layout provides some ideas and inspiration for you as you begin your Christmas crafting. Let me know what you think by leaving a comment below.

Thank You for stopping by!

Happy crafting!
