#18 Easter Layout


Hi everyone this is actually my 2nd post tonight please scroll down to see my other layout I made!

I made this Easter layout of my son when he was only 2 yrs old back in 2010. He just kept grabbing eggs and then he would dump them all out and the older kids would come running trying to steal his eggs... how mean!!! Anyways I made this layout without using my Cricut or Cameo... I made it just using the stuff I had like ribbon, flowers, brads, chipboard letters, sticker, stamps, glitter and buttons. The stamp shaped die cuts I used for the banner are actually a cuttlebug die!

I am entering my layout in 2 challenges:
Die Cuttin Divas- Bows, buttons or bling (I used buttons, bling and my die cut is a Cuttlebug die!)
DCWV- Stackaholic Template Challenge (I used Nana's Kitchen Stack)

#17 Birthday Boy Layout made with Cameo

Hi everyone! I feel like I have been neglecting my blog a little bit, I have so many new projects to share with you that I made over the last 2 weeks, but I've been too lazy to blog about them!

Here's a layout I made of my nephew Jacob's 2nd birthday. I got this fun and bright paper stack at Joann's a few days ago I forget what the collection is called but it's all about birthday's and it's adorable. All of the cuts here which include, title, stars, circles, tags, balloon and present are all from the Silhouette store. I did some doodling around with a black pen and embossed 2 tags, the sentiment "memories" is from Pink By Design stamps. I also added some glitter to some of the cuts.


Also, just a reminder if you own a Silhouette Cameo or Silhouette SD be sure to enter in our first ever "Cameo Creations" challenge HERE for a chance to win some SCRAPPY MOMS STAMPS!!!!!

Hi everyone!! Hope you all had a great weekend, I did I got lots of crafty things done I have plenty of inspiration for you guys!! For today's post I am also being featured on the CRafty Sprouts Blog my sister Victoria helped me make 30 baby shower invitations for my upcoming baby shower. I finally chose a theme for the nursery and it's Princess theme so I decided to go with a Princess themed baby shower also!

I cut all of the onesie's out using the Life's A Party Cricut cart and welded them together in my Gypsy to make a shaped card. The Princess crown is from the Teresa Collins Sophisticated Cricut cartridge and I added pink Stickles on all of the crowns. I am very happy with the way they came out because they were nice and easy to mass produce 30 of them! I stamped ALL of the sentiments using CRAFTY SPROUTS "Rock that baby Bump" stamp set which you can see below.

#2 Intricate Hearts Card made with Cameo

***This is my 2nd post please click HERE to view my first project of the year!***

I am still loving my Cameo, especially after this amazing cut it's so intricate! Normally I would NEVER even attempt to cut something out like this with my beloved Cricut because I know that I would have to do major surgery with my Xacto knife LOL!

I got this shape from the Silhouette online store with my Premium subscription, I am very excited to make a bunch of Valentine's Day projects I guess I got a little burnt out making Christmas stuff, eventhough I LOVE Christmas! I cut this card out at 5x5 inches and stamped the sentiment "Happy Valentine's Day" with a Martha Stewart stamp. I just love sweet and simple cards that are easy to make!


This card is now for sale for $2.50 with FREE SHIPPING at my ETSY shop HERE!!!

I cut the glasses using my new Cameo and with SCAL 3 easy peasy! I placed clear transparency papers on the circles to create a lens. You can view the entire collection HERE
