Scrap Queen

 I have used Design Space in order to plan my layouts for a long time. It occurred to me that I could do the same thing with my Happy Planner Using basic shapes included in Design Space I recreated my Happy Planner in all 3 sizes on the canvas. From there I can apply and size images to create stickers. To use my templates click HERE Once I had placed and sized all the images I wanted. I flattened each image to create my sticker. I printed them out on sticker paper and then cut them with the cricut. Please note: for best results use the custom materials setting and search for sticker paper! Thank you so much for stopping by! Blessings,

There is one event that I look forward to all  year long! It's the annual Scrapbooking Retreat that happens on October. I go with my friends and my sister and her/our friends. It is, without a doubt, so much fun. What could be better than spending an entire weekend doing nothing but scrapbooking and chatting with your friends?! There is a short hike and great view near the lodge where we stay and every year we try to get a little bit of exercise and then show that we did by taking a selfie at the top. To scrapbook this selfie I used a sketch from Sketch n Scrap .  The Layout: These are my scrap friends :) The Sketch: Another look at my layout: To Create this Layout I used: Carta Bella: Hello Again paper pack Miss Kate's Cuttables: banner Alexis Mattox - Emma Rae font - tag font Sentimentals Cricut Cartridge - tag Blueberry Regular system font via DS Carpe Diem: Faith - decorative clip twine Thank you so much for stoppi...

What says more about summer than BBQing? It's one of my favorite things and we do it a lot! Although I have to admit, I probably like it more because that means I don't have to cook :) LOL! So, this week's challenge on the Fantabulous Cricut  blog is to make a project using hotdog, hamburger etc (bbq foods). Since we tend to have a lot of BBQs at our house I decided to create an invitation! Check it out. The BBQer and the BBQ & steak cuts came from the Everyday Paper Dolls Cricut Cartridge, the Sentiment "You're Invited" came from the Sentimentals Cricut cartridge, and the "BBQ" came from the Jasmine Cricut Cartridge.  I had to use a steak because I love my steak and it's my favorite thing to eat off the BBQ!!! The background paper comes from Me And My Big Ideas Boy stack. Mmmm I'm hungry! Now it's your turn. Upload your creation to Fantabulous Cricut !

I recently went to a personal bridal shower, the theme was Victoria Secret. Talk about a fun shower! I don't think I've ever gone to a shower that was that much fun. They had the shower at a local Cupcake Shoppe, called Frosted  in Coeurd'Alene, Id. It was such a nice atmosphere and the cupcakes were amazing! This is the card I made for the bride to be. I am also entering this in the Made Especially For You Card challenge this week. Their challenge was to use three different papers for your project. I used the Sentimentals Cricut Cartridge for the Do Not Disturb sentiment and the Tie the Knot Cricut Cartridge for the corset. I used some pink and black polka dot pattern paper, some black glitter paper, and a piece of the grey metallic paper for the diecuts. Inside the card I made a bookmark using a Love definition stamp with more of the metallic paper and some black fiber.

The challenge over at the Cooking With the Cricut  blog was to work off of the below sketch and then to use three out of nine listed embellishments. My creation is below the sketch. For this card I used the Sentimentals Cricut Cartridge for the Owl. I used a Martha Stewart Corner Punch for the decorative corners. After punching the corners I saved the remnants and used the flower insides as embellishment and the outskirt remnants of the corners to further embellish my corners. Hopefully that all made sense :) The three embellishments I choose to use for the challenge was glitter, ink (I inked all the edges of each paper element on the card), and small flowers. The pattern paper comes from the DCWV The Luxury paper stack.
