Wedding Card Swap

This is my entry for a wedding card swap I am in. I made 7 of these for the swap. Cinderella and her man were cut at 5 1/2" from the Happily Ever After Cricut Cartridge. The envelop came from the same cartridge but was cut at 3". Embossed and glittered to give it some bling. Also layered the white on white pearlized paper to give it more depth. The picture doesn't do justice to the card, but it is a hard card to photograph.

Ariel, Sebastian and Flounder - My Little Mermaid Layout

My youngest daughter has loved the Little Mermaid for as long as I can remember. She never saw the movie until she was 4, but it was her favorite princess. There was even a time we had to call her Ariel...Madison just wasn't her name any more. This layout was done in love for the memory. Here she is 4 1/2" getting ready to attend Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party at the Magic Kingdom in October 2007. We took her to Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique and she choose to have her hair made up as a Fairy Princess. This picture was taken before we left the room. That evening she racked up a marriage proposal from Buzz Lightyear, who even got down on bended knee to propose. And yes, I have that picture too. I plan to scrap it to go with this page.

Ariel is cut at 5" and Sebastian and Flounder are cut at 4" from the Dreams Come True Cricut Cartridge. This was also for a swap so I made 25 kits for others to put together. Thanks for looking.

Personal Post

I don't know how many people actually read my blog, but for a short time I was pregnant. The news was not good at the doctor's office today and this afternoon I have started miscarrying. It may be a while before I can get back to scrapbooking and posting. Thanks for your patience as I deal with this personal situation.

Pirate Swap Layout

I am still working on this one with two more ideas coming. One is using sandpaper under the paperdolls to simulate a sandy beach. Also want to write or cut out "ARRRR" for the boy pirate.

All pieces were cut at 4" except for the water. Working to get that to fit the entire width of the page. But a good start.



Madison's Birthday Cake

Well, not the actual cake, but a paper one filled with candy for all the kids to take a "piece" home with them.

Cake pieces are cut from Tags, Bags, Boxes and More at 5 1/2". "Madison is 5" is cut from All Mixed Up at 1". Also the flowers on top are cut at various sizes from All Mixed Up with a rhinestone brad in the center.

Tigger Birthday Card

My nephew turns 1 today, but his party was yesterday. I made this Tigger card for his birthday and then promptly left it on the dining room table. Oh, well...I can give it to him later.

Tigger is cut from the Pooh Font cartridge on the Cricut at 5" and the letters at 1". Background paper is from Target's $1 spot.
