National Scrapbook Day!

Tomorrow is the day... I am going to a little boutique that my cousin is having, then I get to scrap to my heart's content the rest of the day. I hope to have so many pages done that I will have to post lots! I hope everyone has an awesome scrapbook day, and don't forget to check your favorite crafting websites... Pink Stamper is having a huge celebration that she is doing for 12 hours! Awesome. Peachy Keen Stamps is having a sale and I'm sure Custom Crops is doing something too.

Happy Scrapping!!

Shaped Card

This is my first shaped card. We had a birthday party for our 94 year old Grandpa, and he's always wearing a hat of some sort to go out. This literally just popped into my head hours before the party, and I was so excited with how it turned out.

The feather is actually the flower layer of the state of Maine in 50 States. The hat came from Paper Doll Dress Up. The inside says "Happy Birthday Pardner" with Cuttin' Up. Sorry though... I was in such a rush, forgot to take a picture of that!

I can tell that I will be doing many more shaped cards because they are so cute! Thanks for visiting!!

Easter Treat Bags

This year for Easter, I completely spaced doing something for my daughter's teachers, so I needed to do something relatively fast, but cute, too! What better than to try my new Easter cartridge? I cut the bunny at 7" and just colored his nose and put on the tail. Easy Peasy!

Best Cuttlebug Folder Storage Idea EVER!

I am addicted to my Cuttlebug, but only for the embossing folders. Man, they are so cute!! I have been keeping them in a jumbled pile for a few years now, and sadly, it's just not working for me! So, I looked into a binder system, since I had just discovered that storage way for my clear stamps.

I really did not like the actual Cuttlebug binder system that Provo Craft makes, so I decided to come up with my own, with the help of my cute Husband. I got an 8 1/2 " by 11" three ring binder, and some trading card pockets, along with some 5x7" photo protectors. Those were not super easy to come by, but http://www.scrapbook.com/ has them for not too expensive and personally, they are well worth it! Thanks for stopping by!!

This is a view of the binder closed. Super easy to stand on a shelf!

A Few Scrapbook Pages

I have been working on getting my first daughter's book caught up. I am LOVING my Cricut more than ever with helping me get her book done. Hooray! I hope to have more and more pages to post in the very near future. Thanks for visiting!

My First Scrapbook Page with My Cricut

I am finally thinking I might get caught up on my scrapbooks. Since I received my Gypsy for Christmas, crafts and I have become better friends! My daughter is 4 years old now, but I did finally get around to finishing up a page for her book. Her 6 month page! GASP! I am trying Slowly but surely, I'm getting finished... Thanks for visiting!!

My First Forever Young Project

I absolutely love this cartridge!! It feels more "grown up" than the paper doll cartridges and my darling SIL has a birthday coming up, so I thought I better try this cartridge out. The purses are super cute and I love the models.

I made the purse to hold two colors of nail polish... They fit perfectly!! The card was just fun to make, and I of course had to glitter!!
