Valentine's Day

We're a little more settled now and I actually have my own creating space now so I've been jumping back into crafting. I've fallen in love with Pinterest and its become a great source of inspiration for me. Its also showing me that I am super amateur in all of this but I love to dabble and that's the point of this blog right! I got the inspiration for this card from a pin from The Queen's Scene. Looking at her blog a little more I've fallen in love with her style and will probably go to her for inspiration but I don't know that I will ever create anything as gorgeous as she does! I used a couple of stamps I've collected over time and the circut cartridge Storybook.

Scrapbooking Weekend

I spent alot of my spare time this weekend catching up on scrap booking. It was quite productive!! I've caught up and I just need to print two pictures (Landon at 11 and 12 months old) for the last pages I worked on and scrapbook Landon's birthday.

This page was a combination of using the cricut and sticker letters. Since I wanted so many letters on these pages, I opted for stickers since I don't have to glue the back of each letter. I used the cartridge Stretch Your Imagination for the cricut shapes.

We spent Christmas week in Washington with both our families so we had lots of pictures with family. I only used the cricut for Create Joy (Beyond Birthdays Cartridge) the rest are store bought embellishments my husband bought me for Christmas. It was a struggle planning this page since I wanted to include so many pictures, but I'm really happy with how it turned out.

The Christmas page includes store bought embellishments but I used three cartridges total for the two pages. Beyond Birthdays for Christmas, Stone Script for Snow Day! (you can't really see it in the picture) and the snowman and sled were from Stretch Your Imagination.

I took pictures of Landon each month around the 17th and I wanted to include this in his scrapbook. I also included some of his gross motor milestones on it. I used Teardrop for the text.

Christmas Thank You Cards

I'm really into browns, greens, and blues. It helps that green is my favorite color. The first two pictures I made for Thank You cards for christmas. I like the first picture because they could have also been used for most anything. The last picture is a card that we made to send to a family member having a hard time. I used my Cricut for these cards. It really makes card making and scrapbooking fun. I used the Beyond Birthdays cartridge and the Home Accents Solutions cartridge.
