"I Still Do"

Hello fellow crafters!! Today I have a completely different project I would like to share with you...a wedding bouquet!! Or in my case a "I Still Do" bouquet!! My husband and I are celebrating 10 years of marriage this September and will be renewing our vows!! We didn't have a "wedding" so for me this has been really fun to plan!! It has turned into a whole family affair!!
Anyways I've been slowly working on some paper flowers for decorations and such but when I saw the challenge over at the Fantabulous Cricut Blog it gave me the push I needed to finally assemble my bouquet!! I used the Mother's Day Bouquet and George cartridge to create my flowers along with the Tim Holtz Tattered Florals die!! I really like how it turned out!! I might add a couple more little "somethings" in it later but not quite sure!!
Thanks for stopping by!! If you have any questions please feel free to ask!!!

Bohemian Inspired Baby Album

I received a custom order last week for a little girl baby album!! I had the pleasure of getting to see this precious little ones nursery!! All of the furniture pieces and wall art was created by the very talented Rachael G!!! You can find her work at Born In A Barn!!! Simply amazing!!
So after seeing this fabulous nursery this is what I came up with!! All of the pages are completely different!! There are lots of photomats and tags scattered throughout the entire album!! Ive never used this many colors and patterns before so it was quite a challenge!! The paper collection I used was from Prima along with some of the flowers!! I hademade alot of them too!!
Thanks for stopping by!! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to order your very own "one of a kind" album!!

Hello Kitty Birthday Card

Good Morning everyone!!
Today I have a super cute birthday card I would like to share with you!! My niece is turning 4 in a couple weeks and she is quite fond in Hello Kitty!! This is another easel style card so she can display it if she would like to!! I used the Hello Kitty, George and Lyrical Letters cartridges to create the card!! I have to admit...piecing Hello Kitty was very time consuming!! So many super tiny pieces!!! But I think it turned out pretty darn cute!!

The theme for March is weddings so here is what I came up with!! I originally had a much "flatter" card but wasnt happy with it!! For those who know me...I cant scrap flat!! So this time was no different!! I ended up taking my first card apart and made this one!! Its an easel style card!! If you havent tried this style of card you need too!! They are so much fun and super easy!!
