We went to Stockton, CA to go see Jeff Dunham perform. He puts on a good show, and he is really talented. Seen some of his act before, and some was new. I used a sketch to create this double layout

Pink flower ball



This is one of my favorite homemade items, a paper flower ball made out of a styrofoam ball and lots and lots of Cricut cuts. I just cut all sizes of flowers from 2" on down and put them together randomly. I sent this off to New York for a lady in an Easter/Spring related swap. Hope to make a lot more of these.

Thanks to Craft Junkie Too! for the inspiration for this little treat cup. It says "You Are My Favorite Peep". Inside are candy eggs and a Peep. I gave them out to the people at work for their desk, now I have to make more for the family. Worked with irridesent paper for these, they turned out nice.

St. Patricks Day card



It's been a long time since I have posted. I craft all the time, just haven't had time to post and create at the same time.


This is a St. Patrick's Day card I quickly put together for an Irish friend. I hand wrote an Irish blessing on the inside along with some shamrock stickers.

Princess 2 page Layout




I finished up these layouts this week. I made 5 sets for a baby layout swap on the cricut message board. I also am submitting this to the "Getting Scrappy Challenge" at http://amandascraftsandmore.blogspot.com/ on her November 20th 2011 post. The requirement was a layout with embossing. I have embossed the horse and the castle, they might be hard to see. The castle turned out nice with the 'brick' embossing. I got the inspiration from a Xmas layout in a scrapbook magazine. If I find it, I will post it. Princess word, horse and castle from OUAP, the crown from Indie Art.

Hello Kitty Card for Halloween


I made this easy card with the Hello Kitty cartridge. It was cut to fit a 8.5 x 11 cardstock. It's going out to a new little one for her first Halloween. The inspiration for this card came from the BBTB2.blogspot.com weekly posting.

Girls Just Want to Have FUN!


A 9x9 layout I did for my friend Marie who is getting married this month. The East Bay Scrapbook girls got together for a "Hen's Party" and dressed in pink. Here is my contribution for Marie's album. Used Once Upon A Princess for words, and Summer in Paris for the Maid. Love that shimmery silvery damask paper for the background. Inking around the tag, stitching around the crown on the left, and gems on both crowns. Doesn't that lace on the right look like a garter?

Iron On Vinyl - Baby Onesies

Iron on vinyl is purchased off of ebay. Cut on the Cricut with the Destinations and Opposites Attract cartridges using the FLIP option. Iron on and peel off. Really easy to do and the results are wonderful..... on one of them I put two comical birds on the backside.

Grandma's Mini Album for a Boy

I made this album for a best friend who is going to be a grandma this year for the first time. It's a boy, and I found some coordinating paper at my now closed LSS, and thought it was perfect. Can you believe a baby boy album with no blue? It came out really cute with lots of room for pictures and journaling. These are most of the pictures - didn't load them all. Can't wait to give it to her.

Birthday cards for co-workers

I work for the phone company and send out a lot of cards. Made several of these for birthdays and congratulations for next year. They look masculine, cause I work with a lot of guys. But, I think for gals too. Also linking this to My Pink Stamper in an entry for a prize.

Veterans Day in Palm Springs

We had never been to a Veterans Day parade, and this was a good one. Went on for over an hour. Two different layouts using lots of carts.


Live Simply Cuts

Just some cuts from Live Simply. Most are going out for a RAK swap. Like making these cuts = it takes 4 layers to make an animal/word


Live Simply Layout

All cuts are from the Live Simply cart. This is my interpretation of Moniques (Monkey doodle cricut) layout.



.

Snowflakes everywhere

Made lots of these snowflakes for a RAK Swap. East to cut and a little bit of time to ink and stickle.

My Pink Stamper - Challenge 10/10

The challenge was to use Pink, Purple, and Green in a project. I designed 5 sets of these pieces for a layout on my CDS while watching the live upstream on Friday night. I cut and assembled them last night. Definitely not a 1/2 hour project. My colors are light light purple, light and medium pink, light blue, and I put them on a green glitter background. Stickles for the face of the snowman. Enjoy. Carts: SnowFriends, Speaking of Winter, When It's Cold Outside.
