Cricut Magazine

I am back! I haven't done back to back blog posts in forever!
 
Today I am sharing two projects that were posted in Cricut Magazine and Cricut Idea Book Kids. I used the Create A Critter cartridge on both layouts. My favorite cartridge!
 
The first I created with Nikki Sivils' "It's Raining, It's Pouring" collection.

 
On this one I used Bo Bunny "Zoology".

My Little Monster :)

I can't believe it's October already! I am loving this fall weather! I have a few Nikki Sivils projects that I didn't get a chance to post last week. I used "My Lil' Monster" for all of them. LOVE that collection!
 
Here's my daughter Fran having one of "those" moments.

 
And here she is being silly!

 
Lastly, a couple of cards for friends.

The Ribbon Carousel Nikki Sivils Blog Hop!

Today the Ribbon Carousel and Nikki Sivils teamed up for this fun blog hop!

I LOVED working with the Ribbon Carousel ribbon on this layout! I used the Nikki Sivils "School is Cool" line and four different Ribbon Carousel ribbons I used the red and white for my banner, and the others for the border across my page. I think my favorite is the ruler ribbon for sure! LOVE!

 
I aslo used my cricut and the Birthday Bash cartridge to cut the balloons and the number one.
 
Thanks for hopping over! Have fun on the hop!

I'm back with some new projects!

wow, wow, wow, I have been BUSY! So much to do and unfortunately all my projects usually get pushed to the end of my list :(
 
But I was busy the last couple of weeks with these projects that I have to share with you today.
 
The first is a a little book I made for my little girl who is starting her second year of pre-school!
 
It is a spelling book to help her start spelling. I used the Nikki Sivils "School is Cool" line for the book.
 
 
 
 
I used 26 8 x 5 lined index cards and trimmed them to 2.67 inches and then wrote the alphabet on the three sets. I trimmed a piece of cardstock to 8 x5 (two pieces) for the front ad back covers and then hole punched the whole thing.
 
Next I created a gift card holder also using "School is Cool". I adhered the gift card to the card using glue dots. They are very easy to peel of the gift card when it is removed!
 
 
 
Next up is some Bo Bunny! Bo Bunny had a recipe challeng to use the followng supplies or less on a layout-
 
three sheets patterend paper
1 sticker sheet
1 package of embellishments
1 sheet of cardstock.
 
Here's what I came up with...
 
 
I used the Camp-A-Lot papers, chipboard and stickers to create my layout.
 
Thanks for coming by! I'll try to be back soon with more projects!

Field Trip Friday at Bo Bunny

Today on the Bo Bunny blog it's Field Trip Friday! What's that you ask? It's a day to take a field trip and do some think you wouldn't normally do. For this field trip I chose to use STAMPS on my layout. HAHA, not very adventurous you say? For me it is! I am always afraid I am going to 'mess up' my layout if I stamp on it. So I kind of cheated. I stamped on paper and then cut out the images. That way if I messed up I could just try again. I did stamp a border along my paper, but it's very light and I covered most of it up. What I can see of it I like though!

I used Bo Bunny "Little Miss" papers and embellishments and "Little Miss" and "Hello Sunshine" stamps.



there's my stamped birdcage, birds and hexagon border below.

Here's another layout I created for the Bo Bunny blog a few weeks ago that I forgot to post :(, opps! I used "Little Miss" on this layout also.

I took these photos for father's day and LET ME TELL YOU, it was NOT an easy feat. To get these two girls to look at the camera at the same time?? NOT HAPPENING. It was worth it though to get the photo of the two of them kissing though :). It's priceless!

This layout was for a challenge to use limited supplies. I could only use two embellishment packs (I chose stickers and chipboard) and two sheets of patterend paper (thank goodness the papers are double sided!).


thanks for coming by! Have a great day and check out the Bo Bunny blog to see what the other DT Members created!

A few new things :)

I have a few new things to share today!

First up is some new Nikki Sivils using Messages. I can't get enough of this line!

I used a sketch from Allison Davis for this sketch. You can find out more about her sketch books HERE.


I had this one in mind for a while. I like to write down all my girls' favorites things to say every once in a while. I have two pages like this for Fran too.


and I also created a card with Bo Bunny! I used Hello Sunshine. I love the little bees in this line! I adhered the bee circle sticker on top of a button to make my own charm on this one.


Thanks for coming by tonight!

New Bo Bunny has arrived!

The new Bo Bunny will be hitting the stores soon and you will LOVE it! I was able to play with some of the new "Hello Sunshine" and it makes everything seem so bright!

I created this page for the Bo Bunny blog Focus on Trinket post. I used the "Hello Sunshine" trinkets for my title the two flowers on the left side.





I cut out some of the patterned paper to make my bee hive design along the middle of the page and used a brad for the little swirl behind the bee.

You can see some more Trinkets on the Bo Bunny blog. Thanks for coming by!

Scrapbooking about Faith at Bo Bunny

This week the Bo Bunny blog featured layouts about faith on the blog. When given this assignment I thought about what I wanted to scrapbook and after a lot of though decided on scrapbooking this photo of my girls. My layout is about having faith to let them go and grow up. Sometimes I think I am going to to be that helicoptor parent that hovers over everything they do. I can't even tell how many times I have I said "My girls are NEVER going to do that". I know I am going to have to let them out into the word one day, but why does that day come so fast? So here it is my layout about faith-


Supplies: Bo Bunny Ambrosia Papers and Embellishments.
I ran out of chipboard letters so I used the chipboard letter packaging to trace the F, T and H then popped them up using foam tape. Sorry the layout is a little crooked :)

Thanks for visiting! You can see more Faith layouts on the Bo Bunny blog.
