Patriotic Bouquet/Centerpiece


I made this bouquet for the 4th of July. Thanks to MarleneO for the idea and cut file. The bag is cut tall ball from Plantin Schoolbook. I didn't have any paper to go with it really, so I just used the white side of the chipboard, and went with that. I inked the edges with red and blue, I know my red looks pink on here. I pop dotted the center stars to make them stand out a little more. (I fixed the crookedness of it,after the photo was taken. As I sit and look at the photos I always see things that need fixed, etc.)

What do you think too much, did I go a little crazy or do we like it?? Should I have added something else? Well, thanks for looking. Pin It

Survival Kits



I made Fisherman's Survival kits for Father's Day. I was gonna decorate the boxes up to look more like tackle boxes but then decided that I just liked them how they were. The Box file came from Melinda at All Things Crafty and Delicious. Thank you Melinda for sharing. My first one didn't turn out the greatest, the brown one came out much better. The inside had all the goodies listed for the kit and I also included a fishing poem on the inside top of the box. The guys really liked them! Pin It

10 Things I love about u - Tag Book





Tags were cut with George. I used cereal boxes for my chipboard.. I added little hearts with numbers on them for each journalling spot. I inked the edges and added some glitter glue to them as well. It will make a special little book once someone adds their journalling to it!

Idea came from bstaarswife over at the Cricut message board. I feel like I kinda rushed to get mine done. I think it turned out alright though. I still like hers a whole lot better. May have to try again later... Pin It

Paper Roses









I made a few bouquets of paper roses to give away on Mother's Day. They were cut using the Sure Cuts a lot program. I used Susanbluerobots directions and scut file. Thank you Susan!

They were really pretty simple, the hardest ones for me are the smallest 2 petals. Every time I make one it comes out different, but hey that's how flowers are. Right? I used vases for some and pails for some. I used skewers with green floral tape for the stems. I done both plain roses and some with a little pizazz. I think I like the ones with glitter glue and inked edges the best. The photos really don't do them justice. They turned out really pretty. (most of 'em anyways) For the centers if there was a really big gap, I put in small pearls. My favorite is the orange! Pin It

Easter treats


Made these for my 3 year old son to give out to a few kids. I cut the fry boxes with scal using the boxes font. They were all different sizes, cause I was playing around with scal. Embossed using cuddlebug folders, chick and bunny are from Stretch your imagination cartridge. Happy Easter was cut with Sure Cuts A Lot. Used the MS edge punch that was RAK'd to me on the top of the middle box. I am not very good at tying bows around things...My son picked out the candy and filled the boxes with the paper grass. He enjoyed it!!

Thanks for looking!
