National Scrapbook Day - Challenge 2 - Princess Layout

 Princess Layout
I was able to get another challenge done for National Scrapbook Day today!!
 I am so excited I have accomplished another challenge. This challenge was to make something with tags. I welded a princess crown on a tag found in Cricut Design Space.

Supplies: Cricut Cartridge - Shall We Dance - Crown

Cricut Cartridge - Phrases - Tag

Flowers were punched with a Martha Stewart Punch

I used Princess Project Life Cards

The Birds were Jolee's Dimensional Stickers 

For my scrapbooks I want to do 1 regular layout and then one pocket page layout. This way I can catch up on my scrapbooks and enjoy both forms of scrapbooking.  I love the this came together.

Happy NSD!

Zoo Layouts

Zoo Layouts

I made some layouts of our trip to a zoo. There are too many layouts to share all the directions too. I made the path going through the park so when you line up all 16 layouts that the path continues on from page to page. It looks really neat once you lay them out to see the full spread.

Supplies:

Cricut Cartridge - Animal Kingdom - goat, turtle, Dog

Cricut Cartridge - Easter 2010 - Bunny Cricut Digital Download - Monkey that I print and cut with the Imagine. Jolee's stickers - Peacock
Silhouette Cameo - ram and mountain goat
Cricut Cartridge - Create a Critter - grass and trees
Cricut Cartridge - Designer Calendar to weld a Calendar grid for the fencing.
Squares from the walking path are from the center of the fencing.



Monkey's and Puppies Layout

My Granddaughter went through a phase where she just loves Monkey's and Puppies.
She still does love them. But, when she was 2 she had such a fascination with them.
She would say ahhh Monkey's and Puppies all the time. So I made up a layout of her with her Monkey and puppies.
I love the cute monkey face she made. It is just so cute!!

Cartridges used: Create A Critter - Monkey 1.833" x 2.5" - Vine (welded)
                           Create A Critter 2 - Dog 3.125" x 1.653


Happy Crafting!!

Country Carnival and Enjoy The Little Things Layouts

 This week I have been busy putting layouts together. Here's a couple double layouts I came up with.
It's been awhile since I been scrapbooking and I'm glad to be back at it again!!
I thought the Imagine Spring Chic Cartridge would be perfect for a Carnival layout.
It has so many brightly colored patterned papers. One of my goals this year is to add journaling to my layouts. I normally don't do that but have been inspired to give it a try!!
I have a large amount of photo's to scrapbook so I am trying to fit as many on a 12x12 page as I can to tell the story. I find working with 4x5 photo's a nice size to work with.

Imagine Cartridge - Spring Chic for the papers and banner.
                                 Nursery Tails for the duck
I also used stickers from October Afternoon Midway collection.
Picture size is 4x5

In this double  layout I used papers from DCWV
The Stickers I used are from CTMH Sonoma collection.
I die cut the journaling block from Art Philosophy Cartridge.
I cut it at 4" then cut it in half and that gives me 2 journaling blocks to write in.
Picture size is 4x5

Garden Layout

Papa And Me Layout

Papa And Me Layout

Supplies:

Cricut Cartridge Classic Font - The word And
Cricut Cartridge Country Life - For the words Papa, Me
