A Fancy Birthday!

Hi everyone!  I've been working on some special projects so haven't posted much this week.  Here's a page I made for a challenge.  I had to use 4 cricut cuts, 3 Teresa Collins products and make it elegant.  I really do love the way this turned out, even though this is not how I usually scrapbook.  And of course, I made it pink :)

Here are the details:

• Cartridges:
• Elegant Edges photo mat cut at 4 x 6 and 4 1/4 x 6 1/4 each
• French Manor Dress Form cut at 8 inches
• French Manor Mirror cut at 1 1/4 inches
• Cricut American Alphabet letters cut at 1 1/4 inches
• Teresa Collins Products:
• Posh Black Lace Cardstock
• Posh Trims--Pearls and Skirt
• Jesse's Jewels Blingage
• Miranda's Jewels Blingage
• Paper from The Paper Studio
• American Crafts Ribbon
• Glam Pink Stickles
• Helmar 450 Quick Dry Glue
• Pop dots

 

I had a lot of fun with this page.  The mirror just cuts out the frame and I had this shiny silver cardstock that I cut and put behind it to make it really look like a mirror.  It might even be from Teresa Collins--I just don't remember since it was a scrap.  I don't know if you can tell, but I completely stickled the letters.  I did this before gluing them down so I didn't get stickles all over the place

Thanks for stopping by!

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!

Card Sketch

Hi everyone!!  Boy, it's been a busy week here and the weekend is just as busy.  My son has his confirmation tommorrow and on Monday his 8th grade Honors assembly.  I will probably cry--I just can't believe he's leaving 8th grade.

Today I have a card for you that I made from a Page Maps sketch.  Make sure to visit Fantabulous Cricut today for Scrappin' Saturday.  The design team made some cards and pages from these wonderful sketches.

Above is the sketch and below is the card I made and some details.

I used Elegant Edges for the green dotted background and Cricut American Alphabet for the butterfly and the swirl.  I don't remember the sizes, but I do know the butterfly was smaller than I thought it would be but went with it anyhow :)  The stamp is from My Pink Stamper Spectacular Sayings--a wonderful new set she just released!

I hope you have a great weekend!
