Ethan Hearts Horses!

I scrapped this layout most of the day yesterday. I really enjoyed putting it all together. I used SVGCuts Jonathan's Bears svg collection for the Cowboy Bear and Lasso. I also used their Christmas Cookie Party svg collection for the "scalloped top and bottom" for the journaling area. I created the "Hats N Horses"  and "Cowboy Up" captions. I used SVGCuts running horses and cowboy boot freebies also.

I actually used some of my Cricut cartridges on this layout. I used the horse and horseshoes from Create A Critter and the heart tag from Doodlecharms. All printed cardstock is from the DCWV Guy Stack (LOVE) and AC Cardstock(The ONLY solid cardstock I LOVE to cut with) from Earth Tones and Neutrals Collections that I bought from Pumpkin Cart Crafts. 

 I hope you like em! :)

Coach Designer Bag!

Hey all, after shooting photos of my Eiffel Tower projects I looked beyond the tower and saw the gorgeous designer Coach gift bag I was using as my backgrounds. It just hit me... I could cut that up and use it to make a designer purse using svg files... not just ANY svg files... SVGCuts files!

Amelie's Accessories came with a purse file... along with a lot of other cutesy files! :) If you haven't bought it yet, GO GET IT! ;)

So, here is my Coach inspired SVGCuts purse... Hope you love it like I do!






Ooh La La and L'Amour

I totally love the new svg collection Amelie's Accessories from SVG Cuts. They announced a challenge on their facebook page that the winner of the Eiffel Tower contest would get a stack of DCWV's All About Girls stack from Pumpkin Cart Crafts so I decided to buy the svg set since I cannot turn down a CHALLENGE!

Thank you Mary and Leo! :)

SO... here they are in all their glory! (Pfft... yeah right! LOL)


LOVE!



Goodbye...

hello...

Thank you!!!




The photos for the last Eiffel Tower does not do it justice at all... I just love the dainty pale peach fibers that are strung around the tower... Ooh La La for sure! :)

Til next time...

HAPPY CRAFTING!  and thanks for stopping by!

Life in the FAST Lane!

Well, this layout's name is so true, my precious little angel is growing TOO fast. It was yesterday when he was just 3,4,5,6... you know what I mean.
Anyway, I just love these files from SVGCuts. They gave away a racing flags freebie file last week and then I used the Jonathan's Bear collection again. The cute little pit crew bear was perfect for my layout. I designed the "life in the fast lane" caption using SCAL2 and the trophey I just found on the WWW.

Hope you like it! :)

Boy At Work!

So, I have finally used my Cricut for what I have purchased it for. After several months (almost a year), I have finally decided to start my nine years of scrapbooking! This past week I have scrapped about 20 pages, but wanted to show just this one right now.

I used the Jonathan's Bears collection from SVGCuts. I just love this collection and had to have it the night it came out!
So here is one page of Ethan's album.

Spring has definately sprung with this project!

So here is another project using SVG Cuts files. I just love this wreath. I made this for a challenge on svgcuts.com/forum. I bought the wreath at The Dollar Tree and used the SVG Cuts Spring Birdhouses SVG Collection and the Spring Bunnies SVG Collection! I just love how springy it is and really brightens up my family room. I have it in front of the fireplace hanging on my wreath stand!
I used cardstock from the DCWV Mariposa stack and AC Cardstock from the Spring Collection. Let me know what you think! :)

WAY Out of this World!

So today I was going to create ALL of Tyler's birthday party necessities... (DECORATIONS), but I only had time to do this... while running after ETHAN! :) Ethan is refusing to take naps the last two days. I don't like it. I need my "nap time" too! ;)

So here it is. Tyler's birthday card!
Mars

Neptune

Uranus


Earth


Inside


The spaceman is actually attached to a coil of black wire as if he were floating in space. He springs and jiggles when you open the card. I am not finished with this YET, but I will not be posting anymore pics (I dont think). I will be too busy preparing for a birthday party on Saturday. My baby is turning TEN!

RECIPE:

As always I used SVG Cuts files.
Out of this world and Waterfall Card svg collections.

I used the cupcakes card from the Waterfall as a template.
Instead of the background, I sized the Jupiter files to be the background.
I then added aliens, shooting star, stars, and galaxy to the "streamers" square located in the "colors_*.svg files.

I hope he likes it! :)
