Flower Child

This was another preprinted page from K & Company. Just added a couple of photos, a Cricut journaling spot, and a stamped quote and I was done. Five pages done today on a scrapbooking playdate with Connie!

Sick Day

Again, Felicity paper, Cricut, and Licorice Opaques. Oh, I tied the tag with some hemp; it adds dimension. Hope you like it!

Anniversary card

I made this the other day for an Anniversary party (obviously). No stamping at all, this is all Cricut, right down to the card base. The paper is Roxie and design is a takeoff of an example in the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge book.

Anniversary Layout

This was created with the now retired Silhouette paper, one of my favorite lines. I had used it to make the invitations (seen on the left page) and have been saving the paper for a layout. I used the Cricut and our Art Philosophy cartridge to create the rosettes to mimic those on the cake, and embellished with the flourish from the Love Life stamp set and some Sparkles. The title was cut from the Cricut Calligraphy cartridge and the layout is Raise the Curtain from Magic. Oh, and journaling is hidden inside the card. I'm going to cut a slit in the page protector to allow it to be opened.

Fall/Winter Close To My Heart catalog

Our new catalog debuted on August 1st (OK, so I'm a little behind) and I love it. The papers are now cardstock weight and truly double sided, with a cute zip strip that you can use as a border. If you have our You and Me Kit from May, you'll recognize the style of paper. They are beautiful! Great fall papers, wonderful winter sets, and some truly beautiful and versatile neutral sets.



In addition, we have a Cricut cartridge now that coordinates with our stamp sets, and comes with its own coordinating stamp sets and dimensional elements (chipboard).

And be on the lookout for new layouts I'll be posting much more regularly (as soon as I get these pesky kids back to school!).
