We have soooo much to be thankful for! When I look at the pictures of the kids with their gifts, it makes me feel so thankful to have so many wonderful people in my life! They are all such blessings to me and my family. Nana, Papa, Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins blessing each other each year with gifts of love! Sketch n Scrap has a great sketch that I decided to use to scrap the pics of the kids with some of their gifts that they received last  year from family members.  Their Sketch: My Take: To Create this layout I used: Recollections: Christmas Noel paper stack Cricut Cartridges: Create a Critter - blue gift Birthday Cake - yellow gift Celebrations - red gift Storybook - Title Thank you so much for stopping by!

I wanted to take a moment to share some more layouts that I have completed recently. The first is a hike we took nearby our home. Elijah was so excited because he found a rock that looked like the Millennium Falcon. I just loved the pictures of the kids walking through the grass. It made for a fun layout.  The layouts following the hike are all about our trip to the Oregon Coast. Such a great trip and fun pics to scrapbook!

I subscribed to Cricut All Access for a couple of months and had way too much fun! I am definitely gonna have to repeat that! While playing around I found these Crazy Cute Cards. I fell in love with them and pretty much made everyone of them. I think there were only a couple I didn't make. Anyway, I am going to share 6 of them with you today. Russian Dolls Card Robot Card Bird and Bird House card Crayon Box Card (love this one) Tool Box Card Steampunk Card Weren't those fun!!! I ended up cutting out a few of each - creating packs to give and some for me to keep to give out when I need a fun card. Thank you so much for stopping by! Blessings,
