Scrap Queen

 When we go camping we love to bring the BB Guns and set up targets to shot. I didn't get a photo of our targets but they were empty water bottles and soda cans filled with river water. Works pretty good! To scrap this layout I used a sketch from the Lasting Memories Challenge blog . This month is all about sketches, which also happens to be my favorite way of scrapbooking. Which is probably very obvious if you scroll through my blog. LOL My Layout: The Sketch: To Create this Layout I Used: The Paper Studio: Ninth Street paper pack Kaisercraft: "Party Time" photo overlay Heidi Swapp: Vellum Ephemera - "this" and grey arrow Outdoor Man Cricut Design Space Image Set: "Target Practice", target, and rifle Stand and Salute Cricut Design Space Image Set: rifle photo frame 3 Round Silver Metal Embellishments from my stash Thank you so much for stopping by!

This week's sketch from Sketch N Scrap  was the perfect sketch to complete our Gun Range experience. Last time I focused on my own experience and this week I scrapped my husband.  The sketch: My Take: To create this sketch: Cricut Cartridges: Outdoor Man: Title - "Target Practice" and Target Stand and Salute: rifle and star frames Graphically Speaking: Large arrow and chevron arrows When I Was a Kid: border bases Thanks so much for stopping by!

Last summer my husband and I went out shooting with some friends. This was my first time ever shooting a gun, a real gun that is. My husbands friend is a police officer, which made me feel much safer I think than I would have on our own. He knew what he was doing and knew how to be safe with guns. It was a very cool experience. I can't say that I am ready to take the gun world by storm, but at least I know what it feels like to shoot one.  This week over at Sketch N Scrap  they have a great sketch that I decided to use with my shooting pictures. The Sketch: My Take: To Create this layout: DCWV: The Midnight Berry Stack Graphically Speaking Cricut Cartridge: Absolutely Fearless words Phrases Cricut Cartridge: :You Go Girl title Stand and Salute Cricut Cartridge: Rifle Frame Thank you for stopping by! Till next time,  Blessings!

So far so good, on my self challenge to create more scrapbook layouts! Here is another layout that I decided to create based on a sketch from Let's Scrap , on of my favorite sketch blogs!

(just didn't retake pics) Their sketch: My take: The ingredients: First Few Years Cricut Cartridge: Star and Arrow Border When I Was a Kid Cartridge: Corners Family Album Cartridge: Polaroid frames Stamping Cartridge: Happy Birthday title Stand and Salute Cartridge: Parachute Frame Twine Chipboard DCWV: All About Boys Stack  Thanks so  much for stopping by! Blessings,

Today I just want to share a few of the simple layouts I have completed for my family album. This layout was super simple. I used a paper from the DCWV The Green Stack and simply added pictures and a title. The title comes from the Kate's ABC's Cricut cartridge. This layout, again a super easy and quick one was put together using paper from Canvas Corp. and the cricut cartridge Stand and Salute. Canvas Corp again for the paper and trendy twine for a little embellishment. This layout is based of a Newspaper plane. It reminded me of my favorite movie and now Broadway play Newsies! So, I had to have my husband get a picture of me in front of the plane! The newspaper came from the Mickey and Friends Cricut Cartridge and I honestly can't remember which cart I used for the title. Oh well! Thanks for looking! Till next time.

Last summer we took a trip to the Flight Museum in Seattle - yes I know I'm a bit behind :). The kids had so much fun there. Below is a layout that shows my two little ones with their cousin Tim pretending to fly a jet airplane (at least I think that is what it is). For this layout I used the Stand and Salute Cricut Cartridge.

Happy Birthday USA! This week at Cookin With Cricut we are asked to create a 4th of July project. I decided to make a general card that I could give out as a thank you or thinking of you card. I make this card using the Stand and Salute Cricut Cartridge for the sentiment as well as the fireworks. The boy in the fire engine came from the A Child's Year Cricut Catridge. Now, it's your turn. Upload your project to Cookin With Cricut !

Happy Memorial Day everyone! It's that time of week again were we get to do a challenge over at the Fantabulous Cricut blog! The challenge this week is to create a project using the color red plus a flag, military symbol, or poppy on it.  Here's my creation! I looked through my cartridges and finally decided that I had to use an image from the A Child's Year Cricut Cartridge, one of my favorites! I loved this one with two children running with the flags. The sentiment came from the Stand and Salute Cricut Cartridge. I then added some bling just to give it a nice touch, cause I love bling! The paper comes from one of my favorite DCWV paper stacks, The Green Stack. I love this paper and use it often! Now it's your turn, create a project and upload it to the Fantabulous Cricut blog!
