Its A Boy

Another Tommy layout.. I know lol. I used Teresa Collins Imagine Baby Boutique cartridge for all of the pattern papers and the title and used the onesie that comes with the basic imagine shapes and filled with different patterns from the Baby Boutique cart. I popped up the circle that says "baby" with pop dots. I used some trendy twine for the line the onesies are hanging on. 

I used the Purple Pumpkin March sketch. Unfortunately I don't have any Purple Pumpkin products or they'd be all over this thing lol :).

Adorable Girl Layout

I just finished up this super cute (in my opinion anyway lol) layout. I used imaginisce baby powder papers.

I trimmed different papers up to fit what I thought was close to the sketch. I also fussy cut 2 of the circles from one paper for the strip on the bottom of the pics.. and added pink iRock gems (which you can get at ShopPumpkinSpice.com) around each pic and one on the bottom circles (inside the flower). I inked the edges of some paper and inked the background too with pink ink. Sprayed the background with whine glimmer mist. And one of the pink paper strips I pleated. I cut the heart with my gypsy and Cricut Expression 2 using Craft Room Basics and inked the edges. The title is stamped in black ink and I outlined the black in hot pink glaze pen to help it stand out and fit in all at the same time. Hope you like :)

I followed the sketch at Imaginisce this month.

CWC #89 Graduation/ End of School Year

This week the CWC challenge is Graduation/ end of school year. I made this graduation card using the Happy Graduation and Plantin Schoolbook carts.

I used both the star cuts from plantin schoolbook and the graduation cap from happy graduation as stencils and used silver ink to put both onto the black cardstock.

I cut out some red and light red polk-a-dot paper and put it on the side and then put the black card stock with the cap over it.

I added some red bakers twine over the red paper and then put some on where the tassel would go. I also added some to the tag I cut out by hand in both white and red card stock. I hand wrote congrats on the tag. I also inked around the edges of the black card stock.

Hope you'll come join in the fun with us over at CWC this week!

Under my umbrella layout

Hey everyone! Today I have a layout I made for some pics I have of Jayden playing in the rain. I haven't got the pics printed yet but I had to make this layout while I was thinking about it. I used the 9 Months lite cartridge and some yellow card stock, yellow chalk ink & white scribbles 3d paint.

I cut the umbrellas at different sizes and used them sort of as stencils to make the background paper.. I put the umbrellas down on the main card stock and inked in different places to make the umbrellas show up and to help the umbrellas stand out since they were cut from the same shade of yellow card stock. I put the umbrellas on pop dots and added white gel pen stitching around them. I then free handed the title ( you can stand under my umbrella) and some rain drops down the side with white scribbles 3d paint.

Simple. Cute. I like it ;)

Present gift card set

Matching gift card holder set of cards I made. Very simple (as most of my projects are lol.. I guess I can't get too complicated with a 3 month old and almost 2 year old).

Green recollections card stock cut in half (8.5x11) and then folded in 3rds how ever you want I guess. DCWV Christmwas paper to cover and I used the opposite of each other's outside on the others inside. Inked the edges.. and put ribbon on to look like a present.

the inside pocket is red card stock cut almost to the edges of the card.. (which I believe is 4.24inchs so the pocket I think I cut at 4in) adhered down with atg tape on the bottom and 2 sides. Then covered in the DCWV paper just slightly smaller than the pocket.

Made the bows on top by tying the bow on one and making a crazy looking bow on the other.. just spun it like flower petals and atg in between each layer.

Thank You Card

Made this blue & pink thank you card using some stamps by Hero Arts & Close to My Heart (not sure which lines I can't remember). Used my swiss dots embossing folder and embossed the blue background sheet.. then inked over it with light pink chalk ink. Inked the edges of the white cardstock with the same pink ink and also stamped the flowers with the same ink. Used blue ink for the thanks stamp and inked the edges in the same color.. the pink thanks tag was cut with Accent Essentials. And to finish it off a white ribbon and bow along the bottom. Hope you like.

Grouch Chrirstmas Card

Our challenge this week at the SweetSassyDivaDT was to make a Christmas card using the Scotch Post-It Paper. I made this Oscar the Grouch Christmas card to give to one of my cousins (she loves Oscar).

Recipe:

Black textured cardstock

White Post-it paper

Crimson Post-it paper

Lime Post-it paper

Cocoa Post-it paper

Silver ink pad

Gold Adirondack Mixatives Alcohol ink (Tim Holtz)

6.5 x 5 inch white card

Christmas patterned paper (DCWV Holiday Collection the Christmas Stack)

Small paint brush

Sesame Street Friends cart

Happy Hauntings cart

Cricut

Instructions:

Using the Sesame Street Friends cart cut out Oscar1 at 3 inches, "blackout" with the black cardstock, "white" & "Layer 1" with the white Post-it paper, "Layer 2" with the Crimson Post-it paper, "Body" with the Lime Post-it paper, "Layer 3" with the Cocoa Post-it paper.

Using the Happy Hauntings cart cut out the "M e r r y" using the white Post-it paper at 1 inch.

Take the white garbage can and ink over it with your silver ink pad to give it the realistic look (I would have used a different color but I thought this would be a nice touch). Assemble Oscar. Adhere your patterned Christmas paper to the front of the card (make sure you have it cut a little smaller than the main card) and adhere Oscar to the bottom left of the patterned paper. Put a small amount of the gold alcohol ink on a piece of plastic or an acrylic block, using your paint brush paint on some of the gold ink over the letters from the Happy Hauntings cart. Peel and stick these letters to the top of your card (above Oscars head). With the gold ink write "Christmas" across the middle of the card just by using the tip of the ink itself. Let it dry and you're done! Hope you enjoyed my card!
