At the Zoo

Hi everyone!  Hope you all are well.  It's been so hot already here.  My scrap area is just in a hallway upstairs with no air vent, and too hot to work up there.  So this weekend I moved most of my things to the dining room.  We need to get some paiting done anyway and that will help up there. It's way cooler down here (and roomier) so I was able to get this scrapbook page made this weekend :)

Here are the details:

• Imaginise
• Animal Crackers Pixie Sticks Paper
• B-Day Bash Collection Paper Ribbon Flags
• iRock Glam Rocks
• Cricut Cartridges
• Elegant Edges cut at 11 inches and 4 inches
• Birthday Bash elephant cut at 3 inches
• Summer Vacation ticket cut at 1 1/2 inches
• American Alphabet letters cut at 1 inch
• White Pen
• pop dots

Here are some close up pictures.  I've really been having trouble getting some clear photos, but the close ups look clearer at least!

Hope you have a great week!!  I hope to have another post tomorrow :)  And this Friday is a My Pink Stamper Blog Hop!! Make sure to put that on your calendar!

Welcome to Crafting Cricut Mom and the fourth Fantabulous Cricut Crawl...Fantabulous Cricut's version of a blog hop! 

Valentine's Day is in a week and everyone at Fantabulous Cricut has decided to Share the Love!   Each Design Team member will be featuring an original Valentine-themed project that includes the word LOVE somewhere on it.

If you've come from visiting Erin at Spantastikreations , you're in the right place! If you've just happened across my blog and would like to play along with our Fantabulous Cricut Crawl, start HERE .

Make sure to check out each DT member's blog for some awesome inspiration! There will be PRIZES along the way at some of our DT members' blogs, AND there will be a Grand Prize up for grabs at FCCB for one participant that submits a "Share the Love" project at FCCB!

How fun is that?

For my project, I made a quick Lots of Love book using my Your Story Photo.

 I used a large dot Cuttlebug folder to emboss the 4 x 6 cover.  I cut different shades pink pink cardstock at 4 x 6 to fill the inside.  The cut is from Birthday Bash at 3 1/2 inches.  I tied twine from The Twinery around the cover and added some self-stick gems. I'm not sure if I'm adding pictures to the inside to just use it as a notebook.

I do have blog candy for you!!  But I'm having internet issues and will post a photo later.  Here's a picture--sorry for the bad quality, I am having multiple technical issues! I have a Martha Stewart Cupcake Edge Punch, A Little Yellow Bicycle Cupcake sticker pack and a package of self-stick pink gems. To enter, please leave one comment and a way for me to contact you if you win!  I will draw a winner this weekend.

Now it's your turn! Let's see your Share the Love projects!  Make sure to include a Cricut cut somewhere on your project and the word Love!

Next stop is Jamie's blog, Cute Cards & Crafts by Jamie. Go see what she has in store for you today... And when you're done, make sure to link up your project to FCCB's Fantabulous Cricut Crawl post to be entered into the contest!

Happy Crawling!

Your Story Photo -- Mini Album

Hey everyone!  I got my Your Story Photo on Friday and wanted to make something right away.  I think I'm going to love this machine!  Really, the thing that takes the longest is decorating and that's fun when you are not on a deadline :)  This is a gift for someone and I hope she likes it!!

So here's a few pictures.  I used Birthday Bash for the cover and a few cuts inside.  I didn't add too many.  Some of those Birthday Bash cuts have small pieces for the size I needed for the album.  The pictures aren't the best, but by the time I get home now, daylight is gone!
