Happy Blog Anniversary

Hello -

Can you believe it is the one year anniversary of the start of my blog.  Click HERE to check out that very 1st post.  This all started for a requirement of a design team entry.  While I did not make the design team I did discover the rewarding process of blogging.  I truly enjoy sharing what I create and I love to hear comments and see new followers.  Thank you to everyone to checks in from time to time. 

Today I am going to share a card I made with my favorite cartridge, Create a Critter.  I also used Kate's ABC's and Home Accents solution cartridges.  I welded the scallop boarder on the Home Accents cartridge to create the card.

Supplies:  Cardstock (American Crafts), Stickles (Ranger), Cricut, Gypsy, Create a Critter, Kate's ABC's & Home Accents Solutions cartridges (Provo Craft).

Thanks for hanging in there with me.  I hope I continue inspiring others.

Night Time Owl Card

Today's card is featuring an image from Kate's ABCs.  I am calling it the night time owl since it cuts with little stars.  I made the card by welding a border from the Home Accents solution cartridge with a rectangle from George and Basic Shapes in my Gypsy.

Supplies: Cardstock (CTMH & DCWV), Stickles (Ranger), Cricut, Gypsy, Kate's ABCs, George and Basic Shapes & Home Accents cartridges (Provo Craft).

Thanks for looking.  Comments are always appreciated.

Let's talk Mini Albums...

Hello Friends,
Today I want to share with you a mini album. I just love how fast and easy mini albums are and they make great gifts. The one I am sharing today was made for one of my daughter's friends. I made this as her wedding shower gift using the colors she planned to feature in her wedding. The cricut made this project fast and easy. I wanted the base pages to be scalloped and the Mini Monogram cartridge had just the shape I needed. I used a lot of rubons on this book (even put a few on buttons). I hope this inspires you to create something today.
