New WordBook

I made a word book for my niece's birthday. I found some new chip board at JoAnn's. I used my Cricut and the deep housing and blade to cut the chip board. I used SCAL to design. It actually went pretty smooth. I was nervous on cutting the board it is pretty thick. I may scale down the thickness next time I get some. I didn't want to wreck my bug.

This is the last second last page "g". She loves puppies so I put a dog face on it.

Here is "i"

this is the back of the "a" page and the front of "i"

Here is back o "P" and front of "a". She is turning 3.

Front of book. I used my Bind it all for the binding and tied ribbons and made a cute dragonfly to embellish the page. Dragonfly came from the DoodleCharms cart. I used Plantin SchoolBook for all the photo mats.

Let me know what ya think!

Tootles...

I made some Christmas gift tags and I decorated a chipboard box to hold them and keep them organized. I love hand made gift tags but, what do you do with them? I put some pretty Christmassy paper on this box. I cut it out after I measured it with SCAL in the corresponding shapes. I glued it all on. It was my first one so I could have glued better. (sometimes pictures don't do justice.) I sanded the sides for a distressed look on the black. I cut out the tags using my cricut Doodlecharms cart for the Santa, and Plantin Schoolbook for the tags. I used stickles for the bling.

A couple of Scrap Layouts

I managed to squeak in a couple of layouts too on Friday.

One is of Emillie's First Thanksgiving. I cut the turkey out with my Cricut using the Doodlecharms cart and the font is Lyrical letters with my Cricut. The second one is of Emillie's first Christmas. I used We R Memory Keepers stickers and Lyrical Letter Cart with my Cricut. I think they turned out nice. Let me know what you think.

:o)

2 new layouts

Here are 2 layouts I did the last couple days. I had so much fun at our BBQ/Crop with friends on Saturday.

This one I did with Lyrical Letters Cricut Cartridge in the Jumbo setting. The squares are cut out of Plantin Schoolbook Cart.

This one I did at our crop over the weekend using Jen's Cuttin Up Cricut cartridge for the font; and DoodleCharms for the ducky's. We had such a good time I can't wait for the next one.
