DT Would You Guess Wednesday

Good Morning Everyone! 

 http://www.mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/

Stop on by and check out all the great projects today.

I made this adorable " It's A Boy" layout.

I used my gypsy and designed the page layout.

Afterwards I actually changed the placement of the stork and the Words.
I love using my gypsy to design my layouts for Scrapbook pages and cards and etc... it is so much fun...

I used the following cartridges:
Suger n' Spice
Cake Basics
Gyspy Wanderings

Stork ( Sugar n' Spice) - cut @ 4 1/2"
Photo mats ( Sugar n' Spice)  - cut @ 5 1/2" (yellow) and 5" ( beige)
It's A Boy ( Cake Basics) - cut @ 3 1/2"
Background Shape (Gyspy Wanderings)  - cut at 10"

This is the first page in scrapbook that I am making for a friend that is having a little boy in January. I am making a scrapbook with layouts for all the milestones for her and all she will have to do is add the pictures and maybe some journaling if she would like.

Thank you for stopping by and checking out my projects...
Now it is time to head over to Erica's to check out all the other wonderful projects for today...

Have a wonderful day and happy crafting.... stop back and check out the new projects...



Getting Ready Thanksgiving

Starting to get things ready for Thanksgiving around the house today and this past weekend...

I have been having the girls help make little decorations for Thanksgiving...

Thanksgiving around here is a little stressful than normal. We have so much that goes on Thanksgiving Day, so I try to do little things leading up to Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving our High School Sponors a Turkey dip, and usually the High School has a football game too and then I am on Ambulance Duty that night. I usually make a few extra desserts and take them to the Ambulance for my crew. 

 This year we are making decorations to hang up and have on the table.

Well so far this is what we have done.

I used Simply Charmed Cartridge to make these adorable turkeys... I think they are so cute...

The ones hanging of the leave garland is cut at 5 1/2" and the ones on the cabinets are cut at 4 1/2" ...

I hope you all enjoyed my little project that I did with my daughter's tonight we are going to make some more....

Well check back tomorrow and see what my project is. Tomorrow is " Would You Guess Wednesday" over at http://www.mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/

Christmas Gift Tags

I am working on a few things for the holidays.

I was thinking sometimes we just have gifts that just need a cute little tag instead of all the wrapping paper... so I thought this would be great for those gifts..

Here are a few that I came up with

I embossed the snowflake with white embossing and I love how it turned out. I used a few different cartridges for these tags...

Cartridges Used:

Snowflake and Winter Hat : Winter Woodland

Base of the of the Tag : Cindy Loo

Second layer and third layer : George and Basic Shapes

I used my gypsy to make them all.

Here is a cute little card that I made using Jolly Holidays Cartridge.

I made this a little like the easel card that I make.

Card base is basic 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 and then the top is folded in half again...

I think this is the cutest card.

I hope you enjoyed my projects for today. Check back often for new projects and some instructions.

I am hoping I will be able to make my first video soon.... Things are settling down around here now and I would like to have a video done shortly... I am working on what I would like to make the first video on.. I am thinking maybe this adorable easel card ...

Happy Crafting Everyone! Have a Wonderful Day!

Happy November

Happy November Everyone!!! It has been a little nuts around here. We got hit with a snow storm on Saturday night and it was so crazy cause it was only October, who ever thought we would have snow before Halloween... haha!!!!

Last night it just felt so weird and odd that we were taking the kids out to trick or treat and there was snow on the ground. But we still had a fun time.

here are my nieces and my daughters.

Now Halloween is over it is time for me to get started on my two favorite holidays

I love crafting for the holidays. And the girls are excited cause they are going to be making new ornaments this year for our tree and around the house.

Happy Crafting Everyone!!!!



Theme Day Thursday Winter 10/20

This is my project for today. I am still in the working stages with it. I am going to be adding a boy on top of it and wrapping the sides with the same ribbon. I added lights inside of it, but I have a little problem, my cord is green and it shows too much, so I am on the hunt for a white string set of lights for it.

This is the small glass block that I got at Michael's. I used the Frosting glass spray by Krylon.

I used Winter Woodland Cartridge to make the Snowflake template and then did 2 coats of the frosting spray. I let it dry an hour in between both coats and then let it set for 48 hours before doing anything else to do.

I am looking forward to making some more of these and giving them as gifts this year....

I am going to working on a few of them this weekend and taking them to the Craft Fairs...

Thank you for stopping by and looking at my project, now hop back over to My Cricut Craft Room and see what everyone else has made for today, some great projects from some very talented ladies...
