GOT EGGS?

Hi! Everyone.  It's a rainy cold Saturday here perfect for staying in and crafting.  At BBTB2 this week the challenge is to include an egg on your project.  As you might know I have been making an Easter scrapbook.  I entered last week with a bunny cut so this week I am entering with an egg cut using Doodlecharms.


 Here are the supplies I used:
Cricut Sampler-Bunny cut at 2"
Doodlecharms- eggs at various sizes
Celebrate with Flourish-title
Martha Stewart Pearlized paint Antique Silk -eggs
Recollection Bling-eggs
Stickles Cotton Candy-eggs
Blossom twine from the Twinery


Here's a close up of my center egg and my title.
Hope your inspired to make your own Easter scrapbook to capture all those special memories.  Join me in the challenge at BBTB2 and have fun.

Bye, Bye, for Now

Pumpkin Spice Layout Challenge

Happy National Scrapbook Day to everyone.  I haven't been feeling very crafty lately.  Some issues at home have been consuming my time. But today I feel inspired. Maybe because it's NSD or maybe it's because of all the inspiring layouts the Design Team @ Pumpkin Spice have shared with us today.  The challenge is a layout using yellow, something floral, wavey, or scrolly and at least one title.

Here is my layout submission for Challenge #2.  This is a trip to Disney World with my two sons.  We didn't get to go until they were almost grown but we still enjoyed it .  It truly is a place for all ages.  This picture is from a ride on Splash Mountain.



I used two Cricut cartridges for this layout.  1) George and Basic Shapes and 2) Cricut Sampler.

From the George and Basic Shapes I cut the letters for Splash using the sign feature @ 1".  I removed the sign handle and used the reverse of the letter cuts for my title.  Mountain was spelled using small adhesive letters from Colorbox.  I also cut the rectangle tag with the slotted tag feature and the small journaling square from the George and Basic shapes cartridge. I used red ribbon with white polka dots from Olffray.  The Pluto sticker was from my stash of Disney stuff but I don't remember who its by.

From the Cricut Sampler cartridge I cut the wave pattern on page 36, 4 times out of red card stock and attached it end to end for a wave effect.  The small white frame with arrow  was cut from page 38 and I used it to locate my son in this busy picture.  Below is a detail of this.



I had fun doing this layout and I think it meets all the challenge requirements. I wish I had more time to make another project for the challenges but unfortunately life has dictated that I must work for a living and since I am on call this weekend I did't have the time to craft like I wanted.  Such is life.

Thanks for viewing my blog and if you feel moved please comment.  I like to get feedback.  Bye Bye and happy blogging.
